stainless steel : 510 - ego adapter s????.

[jeffc]

Hi All.
I seem to be wearing out the standard adapters very quickly, the 510 thread being brass, very quickly wears out.
Worn out 3 adapters in as many weeks.
Where can I get s/s adapter, if they are made. ???
Thanks for your help.

I think a Provape adapter will last you a longer time if you are wearing through that many..

I can recommend the ProVari eGo adapter from eCigWiz. Good value & fast service too (RM Xmas mail may delay tho).

Surprised your getting through so many adapters. Are you screwing em too tight?

[jeffc]

Thanks for the info have ordered one.
Problem started 2 weeks ago when using my new LT v2, with Kanger T3. 510-ego adapter required. Adapter only screwed tight with last few threads. Could almost push adapter into base of LT 510 threaded connector. All other atty`s, units fitted the LT perfectly without the need of adapter, using only 510 connector on the LT.
All `steel` 510 fit perfect only the brass adapters problem with 510 threads.?????.
Hopefully this new adapter will solve my problem, and that it is not a faulty 510 thread on my LT. (fingers crossed).

The new adapter will be handy when you get a ProVari too. Don't lose it

Arghh...

I just ordered a SS one from UK-ecigs and bought £8 of other stuff to make the £10 free shipping.

I wasn't prepared to buy one from another store for £2.99 (£4.99 for the good Provape ones) only to get slapped with £2-3 postage.

Whoops, sorry.

I'll let you know how it is though....

PS - we've still got to fix a mini meet-up? Sounds like you are screaming ahead of me in all this tinkering around...

[jeffc]

Started saving already for a`provari` along with s/s `vamo`.
May take a long time, but we all need a `goal` to aim for. (hope I just did`nt put one into my own net).
Let me know when the `Midlands Mini Meet` is being held, looking forward to meeting other vapers.

to be honest i would prefer the adapter being softer and wearing out than the connector on the e-cig

[jeffc]

Hi Gordy.
You are correct. I shall leave this new s/s adapter fitted onto the LT.to use with my Kanger T3`s
Shall be using my Vamo for all other atty`s etc.
Love the wattage mode of the Vamo, cuts out the faffing about resetting voltages to suit ohmes on atty`s.
Have my Ego - twist as back up, and out and about set up.

That's a good point

That's a VERY good point. I've been worried about my eGo threads recently, maybe adapters of the same "persuasion" (ego-ego, 510-510) are actually quite good at protecting expensive batts/mods.

I use a Cisco 510 / ego adapter on VV / VW mods, it's completely sealed, only really use it with T2's & T3's & haven't had any problems with it, don't know what it's made of but it seems pretty durable, had no issues so far & both the T2 & T3 screw on & off very nicely indeed.

I am still waiting for my 510-ego adapter.

50 hours seems a long time to go from "payment accepted" to "processing".....

[djs]

Ooohhh. I'm shipped.
