A stupid question about dead rabbits...

[ghostrider1971]

Evening all,

I have a lovely new Dead Rabbit RDA...

I have managed to fit the squonk pin (hurrah!).

When trying to put a coil in, it has flat head screws but only alan keys in the packet.

Am I missing something obvious (probably...) or do I need to try to find a microscopic flat head screwdriver from somewhere?

Did a search and all I came up that was useful for a dead rabbit:
 

In seriousness....I'm guessing that you could do with some jewelers screwdrivers off ebay or similar.

Re. Whether you you're missing one, that would depend on where you bought it from? You could always drop supplier an email and enquire.

Looking at one suppliers parts list:
Includes:

1 Dead Rabbit RDA
1 Delrin Widebore Drip Tip
1 510 Drip Tip Adapter
1 Squonk-Ready 510 Pin
2 Hex Allen Key
Spare Parts & O-Rings

So no flat tip screwdriver included.

My old dear never had a tool box, managed to fix practically everything with a shoe (hammer) and butter knife (screwdriver).
Have a look through your other RDA/RTAs you should have at least 1 little blue screw driver for flat heads.
Or its time to hit the cutlery draw.

@dozerman Postmodern Smoking - Cheers guys

Will nip down to Maplin tomorrow

It also states that the terminals are "Side-Secured via Slotted or Hex Flathead Screws"
Not sure whether supplied is one or the other? Maybe check the spare parts bag to see if you can change from flat head to hex?

But, yes if flathead are already fitted, you may need something to swap them!!!

Probably cheaper at Wilko's. Or almost anywher else.

Visited Maplin's the other day and was underwhelmed by the amount of actually useful stuff they stock these days.

I got a super set from Lidl - hex driver with 30 heads : flat head, Philips, torx, Hex head in fine sizes plus a magnifying glass and wire cutter for just £6 (they got displaced by Chrismtas tat now).

Doesn't every vaper have at least a couple of hundred of these?
