Rose v2 clone

[arron]

In order to "complete" the group buys and in turn tidy up the threads I thought we could start a tricks/tips/troubleshooting guide here....so post your pics, ask questions and show off your crazy setups 

[Q]

Sorry for loading the previous thread arron I should have just driven 20 minutes to Plymouth and seen you in person

Mine isn`t exactly the same as yours (different manufacturer) but decoy suggested this. I like to fill from the top but the top cap has a tightish grip on the chimney so that it was unscrewing as I was taking the top cap off. I found another o ring for the driptip/chimney which had less grip. So now I screw the chimney down (not really tight, unnecessary) and then take the topcap off and refill to the top of the tank and put the cap back on. Then unscrew the chimney to where it was before refil. It doesnt flood when you are refilling. It doesn`t leak if you leave it on it`s side etc. Just a case of careful selection of o ring for the chimney/driptip and topcap seal.

Got mine today, threads were pretty tight to turn even when that base tank section was loosened. They were very sharp which was probably causing them to catch and stick a bit.
Used some compound on the threads and worked them for 10mins and its done the trick, much smoother now.
Got it all apart, cleaned and started the build. Dropped in a ceramic, well it wouldn't drop in so little push was needed, and now its in for good or till it breaks.
Twisted some .28 kanthal and gave it 9 wraps on a 2mm bit.







Its been vaping really well, no dry hits, good flavour.

Theres only one thing ive found and it may just be mine. The 510 connection is on the small side. The atty just turns on my nemi and wont tighten at all. Its better on the king and the stingray, but still drops most of the way in and just turns to tighten on the last thread. Going to have to watch that.

Thanks arron you did a great job with these.

arron - Thanks once again for the gb. I'm having a couple of issues (one of which i've sorted):

The threads appear to be shot on this metal section. One side is perfectly fine but the other isn't right: (tested by carefully and slowly attempting to thread it onto metal and plastic section)

Good side:

Other side showing it not threading onto plastic tank section:

** edit ** appears that they may be intentionally different as the side i thought was dodgy screws into the base fine.  Please confirm just for my sanity

Hello mate,

firstly the 2 steel sections and the pm a tank will only fit 1 way so try switching it round that should solve the issue...you def should not have to force it to tighten ( I'm assuming they unscrewed fairly easy else you wouldn't be a this stage) try it and get back to us.

[arron]

Just seen your edit- that's perfectly fine mate, caught me out time aswell

[Ripshod]

Different thread pitches for the tank sections and the base lemental. Glad you sussed it, could easily damage the Frosted tank section.

Nothing to apologise for mate, and it was in no way your doing that started this thread.....simply thought it better to separate the threads so the gb could be closed down

[lemental]

Thanks arron noob errors on my part. I'm so used to the kayfun system, i assumed orientation doesn't matter and i completely forgot that I unscrewed that part in the first place

Going to give the parts a good clean and hopefully build it later this evening. Shall report back!!!

My Rose has arrived safely today. Gonna give it to the missus to take apart (she has a tighter grip than me)

Thanks for organising the gb, top fella.

Yes it was @spikeyfridge.

Hi arron I got mine today, thanks very much for a very quick group buy.

I am impressed so far, my threads weren't that tight, and the build quality is very good for a clone.

Currently running a diagonal microcoil (watched vid on Edon mods site lol) @ 1.2ohms and flavour is excellent so far.

Very happy
