Interesting.
That would seem to indicate that there may be a strong possibility of having bad solder joints on the USB connector.

First off welcome, thanks for joining us 
I believe I did charge the batteries at some point through the mod out of necessity while I was out… 
Thanks for the info

Thank you, yes I also believe the probem is centered around the charging port. I’ll try to open it and see if I can spot anything unusual.

W’sup everyone.
So I opened up my Michael to try and see if I can pick up anything out of place. I could not fully open it because the fire button side would not come out, don’t know why, glue maybe, or clable to the 510 connection. But from what I saw all wiring and soldering are still in tact, the charge port however is very flimzy and can be easily moves about. Other other than I could not spot anything else. I guess from my side “That’s all she wrote folks” I’ve had it with this inferior quality junk and anything AS Vape related.

Any way to remove the USB port??
Yeah I suppose there is way to remove it , but that’ll most probably lead to another fault.

I have always charged the batteries externally on the VO Tech VIA 240 and still got the Michael problem so I don’t know if that explains it.
