strange one this, i have the kanger v3 airflow adaptor, which will not fire,tried on various battery's and tanks, have also tried a few coils with no joy. Looking at the adaptor there seems very little to go wrong ?, or am i missing something, i should also add i dropped the adaptor and it's not worked since, i have jiggled the centre pin around but there doesn't look like there's much else inside it to me ?, any ideas folks.

I can only think of three things off hand that may be the problem.
1) When it landed , it landed on the center pin and pushed it up , so not connecting to the mod.
2) When it landed , it landed so that the center pin moved out and the coil is not touching the center pin.
3) When it landed , one or more of the O-rings came away ( especially on the inside , as it's a lot more difficult to see ) and the center pin is shorting somehow.
That's my 2 penny's worth anyway.If you have a magnifying visor/glass you maybe able to see more , OR compare with another one , if you have another one of course.

Get a small screwdriver and from the inside push the centre pin out until its protruding 2 mm. Give that a try. If that doesn't work you may well have ripped the insulator. Push the centerpin totally out and check. I have mended one before useing a centerpin insulator from a bvc nautilus head. Hope you can fix it, gl bud.

Maybe a tiny wire clipping caught up inside it?

I think this is the same airflow adapter found on the Geni Tank as well. I've had one go on me, and as others have said, the pin had simply been pushed up into the housing. If you unscrew the base and remove your coil, you'll have access to the pin from above. Using a flat blade screwdriver, you can gently push the pin back out just a hair.

Yep had the pin out, cleaned everything, just can't see any reason why it doesn't work.
