Battery won't unscrew from dct. Advice please

[furball]

Hi i can't get my battery to unscrew from my dct with the collar/bridge thing on. I have a problem with lack of strength in my hands so it is unlikely that i have over tightened it. Any advice welcome. Thankyou.

You could try using an elastic band, to protect and give better grip, and a pair of pliers!

Give it a very gentle wiggle at the connector I did that with a vivi on my lavetube it's a pain

Violet, be carefull wiggling anything at the connector end of you LT if it's the chrome version with an ego/510 connection. It doesn't take much to stretch the threads on that model

I know Karma Mine only works with an adapter now for some reason it fits but it was dodgy from day 1 the button is very tempramental on my one too thanks to Greame I don't use it much now I love my Vamo

oh forgot to say the gentle wiggle wasn't the cause of the connector problem.

Thankyou, i will give the elastic band a go, it is a 510 connection so won't risk wiggling. Thankyou.

Thankyou but i only have one battery at the moment,with my luck i would break the door or the battery. Been one of those weeks. Vac blew up and now dishwasher faulty. Just in time for Sunday dinner washing up

Wow, would never have thought of that! I had a release problem with my DCT in my Vamo on Thursday evening, in the car, in the dark. Thought I had unscrewed the tank unit complete, only to find that I had in fact released the bottom of the tank and dumped about 2ml of Grant's Vanilla Custard over my trousers and car seat!
At least I won't need another Vanilla car freshener for a bit - even my daughter commented on how nice the car was smelling when she got in, and a pupil mentioned later that evening about the nice aftershave I was wearing - didn't have the balls to tell him it was e-juice!
