Hcigar vt75d acting weird

Hello , so after my last frustuation of finder 167w getting broken , i got a board replacement and everything worked fine , yeasterday i have got myself a brand new hcigar vt75d , and it was acting a bit wonkey, its a parallel device but when i put both batteries in sometimes it doenst even turn on i have to open battery doors and change position of the batteries , then it starts working but not as expected , after nearly full discharge i have noticed that battery life was awful , so i just took out one of the batteries to check their voltages seperately and here it goes again ... one of the batteries were 3% while another one was sitting on a full 4.18v , so i charged them and tried to swap batteries in places , the same problem occured... the funny thing is i can take out and put in the same batteries inside but they show different voltage almost everytime... could it be a bad wiring / soldering issue ? Tried to charge it on usb , one battery got charged to 93% while another was sitting on 9% ( right where it was discharged) Im really upset , any help would be apreciated , thank you.... :(

P.S. All the photos were taken at the same time , i have just swapped batteries in places

EDIT just checked both batteries in pico 25 show 81 and 82 % while the dna at the moment shows 61% with both batteries inserted

Oh one more thing. I can use a battery in both sides just fine , sometimes it just refuses to power up , then I just change position of the battery close the battery door and its up and running again , I was thinking maybe battery sleds has poor contact with the batteries themselves ? Im really lost... I will tell tommorow if the soldering or wiring had something to do with it. But if anyone has any ideas I would be glad to hear em out...

I’m having a similar issue with a Hcigar DNA166 dual 18650 mod. I should put it on Escribe and see what the device monitor says. When I put 2 fully charged batteries in it, it will power up but then shuts off immediately. All soldered connections look fine. 

U have to check ur Escribe battery settings maybe it is set to 3x 18650 if not then contact evolv support , because it is a faulty chip , had the same issue with a finder dna 167 :) , my issue is a little bit different though :)
