    Hey guys,

    I've got a Vaporesso Switcher with the NRG tank that I bought maybe 6 months ago or so.

    In the last few weeks, it started going on and off (same as if you remove and add batteries). In the last few days, it kept telling me "atomizer short" and went on and off. Now, it suddenly won't go on at all, it's completely black.

    I'm trying with different fully charged batteries the right way, cleaned the connections, checked that the connection springs are not stuck etc. but no luck. Anything else I can try?

    Sounds like a wire may have come loose...maybe at the 510 connector. Don’t know if it’s possible to take it apart and check that. Have you tried contacting the manufacturer (I know that’s a very long shot!)?

    Nice one! Took it apart and found what the problem was: the wires soldered on the 510 connector were completely soaked from e-liquid. I wiped them up and it's working fine again :cheers:

    Oh well that didn't last long :/ it worked for a few hours then started doing the same thing again. Then, it suddenly started burning the coil non-stop without even pressing the fire button. I took the batteries out quickly. Now, whatever tank I start screwing on, it starts firing it immediately (without pressing the button) and the battery indicators show like they're draining from full to 0 in a few seconds. Scary stuff! I probably best email vaporesso support :O
