Help! Led light staying on

[Hopefull]

Hi,does anyone know if it's ok for me to use my dispasable ecig when the light at the tip still stays on for 1-2 minutes after I have finished using it, I'm wondering is it safe,??, thanks guys !!

I would think that as long as it's not firing and burning up all your juice then it should be fine. It is, after all, just a display LED for show. It is supposed to indicate that the device is active and delivering power to the coil and producing the vapor, but if it's not doing that and the light is just staying on, well then I wouldn't worry if it were me. I might be annoyed that it's staying on and drawing power (even though it's a miniscule amount) from my battery, but so long as it's not firing the coil at the same time I would be ok with it.

It is not about safety , it shouldn't do that , go return it if you can

Hi,thanks for your reply,how do I know it's not firing the coil at the same time though?

If it is firing the coil, you should hear it vaporizing.

It will be popping and sizzling if it is actually firing up the atomizer.

Kind of sizzling or pops near the mouth piece... stick it in your ear and see if you can hear it? I don't mean sticking it in all the way, just near enough that you can hear.

Those e-cig sticks...

DO NOT HORK DOWN ON THE ATOMIZER WHEN YOU SCREW IT IN!!!

Only gently snug it down

Apparently there is a design flaw...the center connector has a rubber grommet under it to keep it from shorting, if you hork down on the atomizer or charger it crushes that grommet and shorts out the battery!!!
Aka...the toothpick fix (found it for you)

You can unshort it by getting something definitely non metallic (a toothpick) and gently prying that center electrode back and forth to "pop" it back up!

I killed two Totally Wicked Titan Tank batteries doing the EXACT same thing you did!

If you killed yours, you can get a replacement rechargeable with a manual push button

Oh...if it is a disposable...it's NOT safe to recharge!

Hope that helps

This is a disposable - doesn't apply.

This is a disposable - doesn't apply.

it's still shorting

Disposable or rechargeable...they have the same design flaw...that center electrode gasket/insulator

Horking down on the battery shorts it...on a disposable it drains the battery and kaput...on a rechargeable it won't charge because it stays running and drains the battery

That's why I updated it to say if its disposable don't try to recharge it..I was editing when you replied...sorry

Thanks for looking out in case I gave "bad info" though
