Popeye Posted October 9, 2015 Author Report Posted October 9, 2015 Is this likely to be a dead mod or just a dead battery?
Nick Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 What mod/make is it? Are all the cells reading 4.2v in Device Monitor?
Popeye Posted October 9, 2015 Author Report Posted October 9, 2015 I am out atm, earlier today it was working fine but now it wont fire above 20w. Its indicating 12.3v pack voltage
Popeye Posted October 9, 2015 Author Report Posted October 9, 2015 Hooked it up to escribe, all cells reporting 4.1V which is expected, but the issue is when i try to fire the mod. cell 1 drops to 3.89, cell 2 drops to 3.59 and cell 3 drops to 3.66 so would i be thinking along the lines of a weak cell?
awsum140 Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 If it's a hand built mod, double check the connections at the balance connector, just in case.
Popeye Posted October 9, 2015 Author Report Posted October 9, 2015 Ifs a vtbox200 bud, thanks for that ill have a looksie
awsum140 Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 Maybe check the battery connections and the atomizer connections as well, as long as you're at it. I'm not sure if the VTB uses connectors or is directly soldered, but either way a look-see can't hurt.
Popeye Posted October 9, 2015 Author Report Posted October 9, 2015 Yeah ill check it all when i open it. Cant hurt to look. Gosh this thing is going in the bin or getting stripped for parts soon haha
awsum140 Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 How old is it. how many charge cycles? If the connections all look good I'd contact the vendor is it's still in warranty. If not, the next thing would be another battery.
Popeye Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 Its 2 weeks ish and the vendor has told me to go to the manufacturer. All connections inside look ok so must be a bad cell so time to look for a battery. Thanks for your help
Popeye Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 Ive ordered a turnigy nano tech 1500mah battery. After some measurement it looks as if it will fit and seen some good reviews on it
