Battery is messed HELP!

I have the SWY 35W box mod. The battery only charges to half way now. Can someone tell me why and should I get a new battery or how to fix it? Posted a pic of how far the battery goes. Had to use my sons email because my only other email is for work if your wondering why my profile picture is what it is. Thanks

If you've had it for a while, internal battery needs to be replaced if you have the soldering skills or replace the mod.

i dont have the mod, not have i ever seen one.
BUT. my first instinct would be to change the battery and see if that fixes the issue.
or if its an 18650 get an external charger and battery and see how that works.

Looked it up, 18650 battery. Replace that.
An 18650 will last longer if you pull it out and charge it on a proper charger.

The mod is basically new only a week old. So what your saying is unscrew it and buy a whole new battery to put in it? It's USB charged by the way I assume you already know that.

If you have to unscrew the base to get to the cell, just charge with a usb. Too much of a pain to charge externally but external charge will give you longer battery life... like a year + instead of 6 mo +

It has been fully charged before yes. Thanks for the help man.

Then it's mosy likely the cell. If it does the same with a good cell from a reputable vendor like liion's, it is the mod... warranty, that sucks.

Next mod purchase, grab something with a removable cell like a vtc mini and a charger.

Hopefully its just the cell...
