I'm sorry you have such terrible issues. Either you got incredibly bad mods or I got incredibly lucky. I have not had any major issues and I will continue to keep on using them. It sounds like you have had a whole plethora of other issues from the get-go. I just know that it's not BS if the coils are inserted as shown because I did at the beginning of ownership have issues of leaking until I installed coils as shown and from then on, no leaks. I have never powered them off except when I put them in my purse, because I don't want them auto-firing in my purse. When I power them back up, they always go back to wattage that I had them at
Otherwise, they're running 24/7. I bought 3 of the 4 at
www.perfectvape.com and I bought one locally at one of our B&M's. No problems with all 4 of mine and that to me is 100% success for me. Good luck with whatever you vape on and I truly do hope they give you your money back. I have had my own share of fun arguing with the Chinese at Aspire, but eventually they did give in and send me my money back.
