eVic atomizer short???

[Deleted]

has anyone ever had this, im getting this most of the time now????

[Greigster]

Is it happening with several atties or just one?

[Deleted]

seems to be happenning with tanks that thread into the center, my t2 clearomizer detects and works

[Greigster]

I only use the 510 on both mine and I have not had any problems but only got them this week, perhaps blakey or robby will pop along and shed some light.

It`s not something I have had happen to me, havent heard of it anywhere else either. Does it show "short" on the EVIC?

Hi robby, it shows atomizer sort circuit, in a panic i did a bit of a Google search and in one thread on ukvapers site someone had a very similar problem but had been using an aga tank then he wanted to switch to a clearo with some other liquid in and he got the no atomizer found error, so he put the aga tank back on and this is when he got the short circuit error and from then on this is what he got. in one reply to his question it was stated that the centre pin sometimes gets stuck down a bit too much after using either a vivi nova or a carto tank with a boge 510 carto, which is what i was using. so i took the control head off and got a drawing board pin and gently prised it up all the way round the centre pin and it did come up slightly, screwed on one of my tanks i was having a problem with and it now works (phew) this guy stated it is a slight build up of liquid between the rubber seal and the pin it gets a bit sticky and they glue their selves together.

This is going to be a problem with any atomiser that has the centre pin sticking out just a tad too much on the 510 connection..

When I first opened the packet for my latest AGR tank I noticed that the positive pin was sticking out way too much on the base locking assembly and I knew that this would push the evic centre pin down and screw things up - I took apart the base connectors and in a little rubber jawed vice took off 1mm of the pin connection and solved the problem before it occurred -

be wary of this - that centre pin on any atomiser 510 connection should only need to jut out a minimum of a 1/3rd mm to work properly...and 1mm MAX in my experience

glad you got it sorted, when are we gonna get spring loaded contacts on atties? It would never happen if that was the norm. I got some on Nova tanks in a Vamo kit once and they are brilliant, never saw them again on anything. It took away the danger of centre pins being pushed in and damage to the 510 connections they were being screwed into.



The centre pin push into the centre tube as far as you want it on a spring, never had a connection problem with them. Just exactly as much pressure as you need.
