Ever wondered, “Why is nothing coming out of my vape?” You’re not alone. This is one of the most common issues vape users face, and it can be frustrating—especially when you’re ready to relax or enjoy a flavorful hit. Whether you're using a wax atomizer, a dab pen, or a hookah vape pen from Longmada, this guide will walk you through the top reasons and quick fixes to get your device working again.
🔧 1. Your Vape Battery Might Be Dead or Turned Off
The most common culprit? A dead or inactive battery.
Solution:
-
Check if your device is powered on (most pens require 5 quick clicks).
-
Plug it into the charger and wait for the LED indicator.
-
Use only the charger that came with your Longmada vape for best results.
💨 2. The Cartridge or Atomizer Isn’t Connected Properly
If the connection between the cartridge and the battery is loose, the current won’t flow.
Solution:
-
Unscrew the atomizer and reattach it snugly—but not too tight.
-
Clean the contact points with a cotton swab and isopropyl alcohol.
🔥 3. Coil or Heating Element Is Burned Out or Clogged
Over time, coils can wear out or become clogged with residue.
Solution:
-
Replace your coil or atomizer. Longmada offers replacement wax atomizers and tips for all models.
-
Avoid dry burning coils—always prime them properly.
🛑 4. Airflow Is Blocked
If you’re inhaling but not getting vapor, airflow could be the issue.
Solution:
-
Check for clogged air holes or blocked mouthpieces.
-
Use a cleaning brush or a toothpick to clear any obstructions.
🧪 5. Incorrect Temperature or Voltage Settings
Your vape might be set too low to heat the concentrate properly.
Solution:
-
Adjust your device settings. Longmada devices like the Motar 3 allow for variable temperature control.
-
Start low, then increase until vapor production begins.
🧯 6. You’re Using the Wrong Type of Concentrate
Not all vapes handle all types of concentrates.
Solution:
-
Use compatible materials. Longmada devices are designed for wax, oil, or shatter depending on the model.
-
Check your product manual or Longmada.com product pages for guidance.
⚙️ 7. Firmware or Safety Lock Activated
Some modern vapes have safety lockouts or firmware glitches.
Solution:
-
Reset your device (consult your manual).
-
Check if child lock or protection modes are active.
🧼 8. Dirty Contacts or Sticky Residue
Oil, wax, or e-liquid can gunk up contact points and block connections.
Solution:
-
Clean all connection points with isopropyl alcohol.
-
Regular maintenance can extend the life of your Longmada vape pen.
📦 9. Defective Parts or Expired Components
If your device is still not working, a component may be damaged.
Solution:
-
Replace the cartridge, battery, or coil.
-
Longmada offers OEM parts like hookah vape pen coils, quartz atomizers, and batteries to restore full functionality.
