VH-Vert ( line clone ) take down

[apostle51]

purchased on of the VH verti genesis atties from here : Vapour hut VH Verti and like many others it was seeping liquid from around the battery connector so decided to get all popeye on it and strip it down to reseal.
Here's a quick look at the component parts and how they come out.

i had a real problem getting the 510 connector out ,infact i snapped it ,but being brass the remains drilled out easily

Spend a bit of time with this today and it didnt go well. I found a connector in my box which had an integrated o-ring and thought that's bloomin handy, so rewired the posts onto it and filled the cavity with hot glue and no shorts, all good.

feed the posts through the tube and started to push in the connector on a vice, checked about half way through and no shorts...

Damn connector was the tightest fit ever, winding it in i was actually shaving off some of the connector as it was going into the tube. managed to get it fully in...and.....short....piss !!!, that connector isn't coming out in a hurry so the whole thing has been resigned to the "to do sometime maybe" box.
