Pro tank mini v2 problem

[tooly]

hi 

ive purchased a kanger pro tank mini 2 in the last few days arrived Saturday morning filled it up with my liquid and it vaped perfectly all yesterday now this morning i proceeded to fill it again screwed it all back together finger tight as i am away and put it back on my battery and now there is no vape no noise or anything coming from it. so i tried a new coil and still nothing ive tried my battery with another tank and it works fine so am kind of sratching my head now what to do. i havnt got a spare battery yet to try in on another battery but as the other tank works fine

Is the other tank a 510 connection?

I suspect the eGo fitment on your mini PT is the issue. They can do this, it's terribly annoying. Basically, the base of your coil head is not making contact with the 510.

..or it could be something unrelated.

Sounds like either the coils are dodgy or maybe you haven't tightened the coil enough so it's not quite making contact with the battery positive connector. what battery are you using ?

[tooly]

im using a evod battery if thats any help .. ive noticed the bit that holds the coil to the tank doesnt screw up tight all the way theres no leaking but there is a really small gap

[Greg]

Ah the Evod batt don't help then, I was wondering if the batt had the facility to check coil resistance but the evod batts don't.

The coil should screw right into the base until the shoulder under the wick bottoms out on the base.

As a test you could ease out the 510 positive pin a mm on the bottom of the atty then carefully screw it onto the batt, I'd try confirming the coil head is screwed home first though.

The other issue with those heads is that the coil tails if left too long can short, can you take the coil out and post a pic of the bottom of the coil where th white from it is, can you see any wire poking out proud of the grommet ?

Ive just nipped out now if i get a chance tonight ill strip it down and post a pic i was looking at getting a second battery what would you reccomend ?

If your happy with your Evod battery then maybe consider this

its a step up in that it's have variable voltage or wattage and will also display the resistance of your atty, not sure of your Evod batt capacity as they make various sizes but the one above is 800mah and has a passthrough so you can use it whilst charging.

these dinky box mods are very good if your okay with the form factor and have a much greater battery capacity and will likely last all day before needing a recharge.

In addition to Greg post, another point to make is this;

eGo fit tanks can often cause trouble on many batteries. I know, because I have a box of mini Protanks.

The iStick comes with an eGo-510 adapter. You attach the tank to the adapter and then the whole caboodle to the iStick. If the tank won't fire, you can tighten the tank onto the adapter not the battery/mod/box. Tightening onto a battery is always fraught with the problem of inadvertently pushing down the pin.

I have some eGo tanks that won't work on evod batteries or spinners without some very careful tightening. In fact, from time to time I get one that won't work at all. In this case, you either have to lift the pin or use another adapter (similar to the iStick one). The advantage of the iStick one is that it's the correct length and has not let me down yet... 100% service so far.

So if i puchased one of these are the pro tank minis compatible with these ?

It is indeed tooly, you'll just need to use the adapter that comes supplied with the iStick.

and then remember to screw the mini PT onto the adapter 'harder' than the adapter onto the iStick.

[tooly]

right am with you now so so tightening the adapter on to the tank itself so it eliminates any need to want to over tighten it on to the battery

[aliscampbell]

tooly, I just wanted to add the when you screw the tank back together all parts should sit flush.ie no gap. Perhaps there is something wrong with the threading.

I'm not certain that buying just another battery will work if your tank is faulty. Do you know anyone else that vapes locally who could have a look? Perhaps you should speak to the vendor about your tank.

[tooly]

i might give them a quick message as ive just taken the coil out of the tank and it all screws together flush now so i might give them a message

[aliscampbell]

Can I suggest you screw the coil back in firmly as this might have been why it was not closing and not connecting with the battery.

When filling I often just check the coil hasn't loosened when I opened the tank.
