Now you can justify an upgrade!

wow wtf at smoke out of the battery ... I would get rid of those, like remove from the house!
Could some one please clarify the correct method for disposing of battery's, I know we are not supposed to throw them in the bin..

 

[BumbleBee]

Both batteries at the same time?

Make sure you don't have a short somewhere, or maybe the atty is leaking into the batteries?

Makro stores (not sure about all of them) usually have a container outside the store where you can dispose of old electronics (looks like a container with Fujitsu branding on the side)

I see more recently, they have partnered with Samsung to handle e-waste disposal (16 May 2014): http://www.publicityupdate.co.za/?IDStory=65257

That sucks - both in one day

Would have been happy to help out if you were up in Pta, have a few spare eGo Batts I never use nowadays. Maybe someone here from Cape Town could help you out?

Is the 650ma pass thru battery a good buy? Can it really be used while charging???

 

[KimH]

@elvin119, if you are able to stop by my place today I can give you a 900mah battery to use until you can get around to buying a new kit.
Please DO NOT buy a pack of smokes

 

[Imthiaz Khan]

Sad indeed! Sorry buddy!
Hope you get sorted out asap!

My passthrough works like a champ!
Its a 1000mah one from eciggs.co.za though, but im pretty sure theyre mostly the same.

And yeah, passthrough use works once the battery is at around 10% charge minimum. Will work on passthrough all the way through the rest of the charge.

 

[elvin119]

got me a pass thru 650 mAh from Vapeob

 

[elvin119]

Thanks@Chop007

 

[elvin119]

shyte i meant Vapemob

 

[Johnny2Puffs]

Strange that both died. Makes me think that it could be some short causing this. Try a new coil.

I had a similar problem with two of my cheap ego batteries that I bought a while back. The one battery the button just popped in and the other just stopped firing. When I opened it to have a look I found that 1 wire had actually come loose.
The joyetech Passthru Batteries though works like a charm.
