istick broke

[piggy]

So my istick has started to say atomizer short with all of my tanks even when there is no tank attached the 
Ohms display fluctuates up and down. I've not banged or dropped and I am a little reluctance to open it up just incase 
there is a small chance Vapour Elixir may want to have a look at it.
Anyone else had any issues like this.

Are you using an ego adaptor piggy ?

[piggy]

no i dont have one

There is a chance that you screwed something on too tight and compressed the 510 connector, try prizing the center pin out a tad and see if that clears it

There's something about this on the main istick thread, teasing the centre pin out very carefully does seem to work. Before that though, give the 510 connector a good clean if you have some isopropynol alcohol and a toothbrush, does the biz nicely (and is great for cleaning connections to batteries too, clean your gear at least weekly if poss.)

well looks to have done the trick but now the pin seems very sensitive if i have my tank very loose (just making a connection) its fine but a slight wobble or bit more pressure and it starts again
Do you think if i can find a little tiny o ring and wedge it underneath it would make it slightly better

[piggy]

Oh well can't find a o ring to fit, have managed to pull the 510 pin up abit further and and cleaned it with some iso it's working well now
Thanks guys for the help it's really appreciated
