  1. This is where Atomizer Analyzer is really useful.  I have one 510 that starts to read before I screw in the atomizer  a complete turn, but most require being screwed in much farther.

    The mod that I'm using right now, an Opus 200 with a Taifun GT4, the connection starts a good 3.5 turns before the atomizer is screwed in all the way.

    I have seen others where contact is made right as the atty bottoms out, this may be what is happening on yours.

    Give Atomizer Analyzer  try as to what I described  above.

  2. It would only let the mod still work if it had a problem with the built-in charger/balance circuits, example: 1 cell said .1 volts and all others were 4 volts but you knew that the one that said 0.1 was really 4 volts. The mod under this condition would stop working because it sees a battery problem with a cell. Power supply doesn't use the JST plug so it would let it work.

  3. If you leave it on USB charge when it appears finished it should eventually balance on it's own, it will take awhile though (couple of days maybe.

    The problem with mine was juice under the JST connector on the board causing the cell to slowly drain while just sitting. So as it balanced it also un-balanced later again.

    If it's working OK I would just let it go at least a few days, as long as you don't have a draining problem as mine it should eventually correct it's self.

  4. I had a 3 cell that just wouldn't balance so I used a juice bottle with wire taped to it's ends and placed in an 18650 charger. The leads from the bottle are plugged into the respective  ports of the JST plug on the pack for the low cell. While it looks "Mickey Mouse" it worked quite well.

    While it appears that the "T" connector  here is being used, it just looks that way, it is not used here.

  5. First, what does eScribe show for cell voltage?

    Perhaps your looking for "USB Recovery Charge"

    It's in EScribe/ Tools/ Diagnostics/ Perform USB Recovery Charge.

    It's a slow process and may need restarted a few times.
