Not to worry Jez,take the rubber grommet from the 510 connection of an old Boge cartomiser and stretch it over the pin and you will be good to go again.I have done this with one of my Vamos and it has a rock solid connection now.I used two small screwdrivers,one to hold the grommet down securely and the other to pull the grommet over the pin.It is a doddle to sort out,even i could do it

Oh no! I can't understand how it even came out m8 as I never had an issue with it It's only about 6 weeks old so technically would be still under warranty but I bought it from Vapourbreak. You'll be getting a reading of 0.0ohm because the centre pin will be shorting against the side of the 510 connector so replacing the o-ring would most likely cure it. Can't believe this has happened but it makes me feel bad after just selling it to you, hope we can get it sorted. If someone knows where a replacement o-ring can be bought then I'll order one for you m8. The part about the cat did make me laugh though, apologies. Honestly mate it was nothing to do with you it was in perfect working order but tagging you means I've found out its in warranty. I will email vendor and see if they will honour it. Cheers dude. The cat thing was kinda funny. Like a little black lightning bolt he was. Thanks for all he messages of support and help guys. Regards Jez

Anything really Regards Jez If you decide to go down the guarantee route then I can give you all the order information but it would be a lengthy process returning it to China. The quickest way would be one of the fixes people have mentioned. If you want to try this then I'll send you a Boge cartomiser first thing Monday. One way or another we'll get this sorted for you m8.
