Charging port won't charge batteries

Charging port won't charge batteries

I plug in the mod to the charger and it won't charge the batteries. I think it's the charging piece, but I don't know what to do.

Get an external charger. Although it won't fix the port, but at least you will be able to vape. Get extra batteries too.

Anyone else having this issue and the above solutions aren't working (besides the external charger of course which is the only easy fix) here is some info for reference. The charge port itself is soldered on the backside of the mother board and comes through a hole in the mother board and requires microsoldering to fix or replace the charge port, also covers are also lightly soldered onto the motherboard easily break if moved around. I added photos for reference (charge port cover has already been broken off in close up pics). Sorry since it's not really a solution

Your are not supposed to charge the alien through the USB port, the port should be used for firmware updates only. You need a external battery charger made for lithium batteries nite core and efest make inexpensive but reliable chargers. Charging any mod through the usb that takes more than 1 battery is dangerous.

I don't believe the micro USB on the alien supports charging dual 18650 batteries. Voltage is too small, the port provides ability to update the software only.
