Newish batteries charged via unit work in other, older vape. Nothing is working. Hense the suggestions on new mod or kit. Shame really as I liked using it.

The mod is perfect, the batteries fit well and are touching the connectors etc.

Can you get it to turn on at all and if so is there any reset function? But I would email Geekvape and let them know you're not happy and will not trust their products again. You never know, they might replace it for you whether you're under warranty or not. You should definitely invest in a dedicated charger like a Nitecore.
I accidentally knocked my new OBS Engine to the floor last night while it was on my Sigelei mod, and it shattered the glass, although it stayed intact until I removed it. One thing I'll say about the Sigelei, it's built strong as it still works after several drops. I'm glad the OBS came with a spare glass! The metal looks unscratched. Ordered a 100ml bottle of 72mg PG nic from nichub, two 50ml amber glass bottles and a bunch of 10ml ldpe. And a couple of 250ml hdpe bottles for decanting my PG and VG into to replace the ones I've been using.

Do your glass bottles have pipettes on them? Personally I would've got one 100ml glass bottle, decant the nic into that then pour say 30ml or so into a squeezy bottle, then top-up when you need to. Store the bulk in the freezer, 30ml in the fridge.

Yeah I'm doing similar. My plan is to decant my 100ml nic into both 50ml bottles and freeze them. But I'll also fill up a couple of 10ml ldpe bottles with nic for weekly use and keep those in the fridge. I do 3mg nic mixes and only use about 1.30ml of nic per 30ml bottle of DIY juice, and 30ml lasts me approx a week or so.
I'm being super over cautious though about glass in my freezer and accidental breakage. I'm going to put the bottles in a leakproof plastic bag (well, reasonably leakproof) with plenty of kitchen roll in the bag to soak up any nic if the bottles break, and that bag will be in a small leakproof Tupperware type container, also with plenty of kitchen roll. Somewhat OTT but better safer than sorry.

GeekVape Aegis Legend needs batteries removed when plugged into PC or it does nothing.
The Legend is pretty good btw, really good on battery longevity(after a firmware update few months ago), wieghty though if that makes a difference but it's built for abuse.

, you'll come out a stronger person, rooting for you

IIRC PG freezes at like -60c, which is way too cold for any normal freezer. I've had 2 litres of PG in my freezer (in glass bottles) for about two years and they haven't cracked or anything. They're still in the sealed bags from Darkstar.
I wouldn't worry.
Soldato
Yeah, although I'm not thinking of the liquid freezing and making the bottles crack but just taking precaution in case the bottles accidentally get cracked in some other way, perhaps getting knocked by something else I put in there or even dropping a bottle on my way from the freezer to mixing table. Nic is nasty stuff.
I've had 72mg on my hands plenty of times, no big deal if you wash it off straight away.
Soldato
Yeah, very true. I must admit, I started off using nitrile gloves for handling nic but gave up on those and just do it without now.
Soldato
Turns out I ordered bottles with the wrong caps for safely storing nic, 
. I needed the flat screw caps, not the dropper caps.

Dead Rabbit RTA is arriving for me at some point today or tomorrow. I'm quite looking forward to it. It'll be my first real RTA as I've only used RDAs in the past because I struggle with wicking bottom airflow RTAs and they always leak for me, so I'm hoping the Dead Rabbit RTA will work out well for me.
I can't afford to vape on stock coil tanks, so I needed to go with an RTA.

Awesome. Did yours get dispatched after the 30th from fasttech? That was their original pre-order ETA and now I see the ETA is the 12th. And Fasttech went on holiday from the 1st for a week.
I ordered from Ecig One in the UK. It was shipped on Monday but I got 2nd class post so it'll be here today or tomorrow.
Joyetech Cubis Max looks quite interesting. Might order one from FT when they have them in stock.
My Vaporesso Target Mini trigger has started playing up, it's sunken slightly and if i press it on the right hand side often gets stuck down which isn't great obviously. Not really impressed considering I only got it a few months ago.
If it breaks completely I might consider something different instead of a straight replacement, what are the best alternatives? I would like some similar size (so very small!) and built in batteries don't bother me.
