What a day ! After fighting all afternoon to get my nemesis up and running my aerotank ring is stuck !!! It won't budge !! Think I over tightened it on the nemesis and inadvertently tightened the ring ! Plus it now won't fire on vtr , tried to lift the pin so it might work , just need to undo the airflow spinner ring !! Good job I've some 30mg liquid or I'd be making a Rollie  |

Fix a elastic band around the ring and one around the base to grip and then try and un-screw it.

Sounds like lots of people are having issues with these sticking. Maybe people buying these should invest in set of vape grips too, cheap as chips and very effective  |

Same thing happened to me a few months ago. I made the disastrous mistake of wrapping cloth around the threads and using grips to hold it as well as rubber above. Guess what. It screwed up the threads and made it useless. Its very easy I have found, to jam the ring stuck. I got a spare bottom part (cheap) to replace it from here, though they are sold out at the mo : www.vapegear.co.uk/product/airflow |

Mines done it a few times now esp with the vtr ! Not that impressed tbh ! Get more flavour off the cheap RGM2 !! Put me off getting the mega which is a shame as they do look good ! |

I like the aerotank, I use them daily without one leak but you do have to be very careful with that ring. Not sure I need the mega but suspect that's one of the reasons they have changed the airflow. Though at 20 notes and over its pricey in comparison. Might buy one mega as thinking of having it copper plated to suit a copper mod.
