Help needed - Broken Flowermate v5.0
A while ago I purchased a Flowermate v5.0 as my first vape and initially I was pleased with the quality of the product.
After about 3 weeks my Flowermate has stopped working. When I press the button it just flashes red 4 times and stops. Even after charging it for extensive periods of time it shows no change and the 'charge' light on the base of the vape no longer lights up.
I was wondering if anybody with better knowledge than myself knew what the problem was and, if so, whether there is a potential fix.
Although the vape was good while it lasted I feel like I've wasted a lot of money and I'm desperate to get it working again.

People told you three months ago that it was a battery problem

I already know that but seeing as the battery is built in there's not much I can do about it. Guess it's just another load of money gone to waste.
Sorry, Flowermates are pretty much treated as disposable around here. Maybe the r/vapormax subreddit will have a solution?
The solution would be either dismantle the vape and replace the battery, or use the 1 year warranty and get your vape replaced with one that does not malfunction.
Good advice here, not sure what's involved in a battery replacement but someone posted some links below to a tear-down method and pictorial.
