it might be a hole in the battery sleeve. Check for that, then get back to us.

After looking at the pics it looks like both pins are sticking out and making contact withe the battery, this makes it auto fire. If you look at other mechs switches the pin sits below the delrin so that the mod only fires when the button is pushed to make contact with the battery.

The issue is the switch, somehow it's making connection with the negative on the battery and completing the circuit. I looked at the photo's. The switch might be put together incorrectly or not screwed together right.

I have a similar problem that I was coming on here to post a thread about but saw this and figured would start here. I have a VTR that is firing constantly. It's fine until I hit the fire button. At that point it fires at whatever watts I have it set to. Then when I let go it backs off considerably but I can still hear the coils burning just at probably about 2 watts or so. Doesn't matter what tank, arty or battery I have on it. Does it with whatever is in there. Only way to make it stop is to take the tank off or take the battery out. Any suggestions?

the portion you are referring to as the fire switch, I can not see that piece on your mod....Both of the top and bottom that you have attached on the mod, show extruding pins...that will fire your mod. Fourth pic down from the top, that is your problem. The second photo you have posted is not on the completed mod you have shown us.

I think your messing with us lol.

@MysticReality If you bought it at a B&M they should be able to service it, other than that I'm not sure Sorry.

@Oggy Yeah I act traded one of my mechs for it. It worked good for about 2 days and then started acting up. I know one of the guys that works at my local vape store and have asked him. He's not too sure either. He thinks it's overheating but I'm not sure. It does overheat after some time of firing but to do it straight from the first Fire im not sure that's the case. Thanks do appreciate the help
