new vtc5 burning

I just received 2 new 18650 vtc5 and I charged them up fully. I put it into my copper 4 nine and it heated up ridiculously fast. I quickly got it out and burned my hands lol.. I let cool off and then tried it in my svd and it doesnt work at all. I then went on to try the second battery and I put my kayfun on my 4 nine and everything was fine. About 15 minutes later I put my origen v2 on and same thing happened. Thats 2 brand new 18650 vtc5's in a row.. Any thoughts or is it a defect? Thanks

 

They were both new out of the box. Charged them up on the intelicharger i4 and that was it. Same attys and none of my other batteries ever gave me trouble. So weird..

 

Did it heat up without you pressing the firing switch? If so, you have a hard short, has nothing to do with the atomizer. Is the plastic casing on either of the batteries damaged? Pictures of anything you think might be important would help.

 

Thinking, doesn't the 4-Nine not have a positive post? The atomizer's positive post touches the battery directly, right? Is the positive post on your atomizer not sticking out very far? That would explain a short.

 

What atomizer did you put on in the first place the origen V2 ?

Did both incident happened when the origen V2 was attached ? I think Ryan is right there was a short cut maybe because the centre pin of the origen v2, was to far in.

When I first started with mechanical mods the same thing happened to me not with this battery but others, and that tough me to examine the atomizer careful and make sure the centre pin of the atomizer is out before screwing it onto the mod.

 

Thanks guys!!! It did happen to both only when the origen was attached. The center post is short so that is probably what happened. This is the first time this has ever been an issue for me. Well I guess we learn something new everyday. Sucks to be me today lol
