Plug the charger

After connecting the Wires to the battery and charger, leave the battery for charging. Keep an eye on charging at every interval of 7-10 minutes.

• Make sure you check the battery after intervals, and don’t leave it unattended. In any way, if you smell a burning odor or see smoke and wires being hot, remove the charger.

Reassemble the Vape

Put the battery back into the vape pen and assemble every area back to the way it was. Charge the vape for 10 to 15 minutes and see if it's charging or not. If the vape is not charging, give it a try for 10 minutes again.

If you still find the disposable vape pens uncharged, you need to get a new one.
