Yea, I bent the plastic first and got the bend in the plastic behind the loop in the cable and worked it sideways putting minimum stress on the cable. You could also unscrew the board to get better access, if you want to stick it in just don't let the glue touch the board or switch, but mine is in there quit firmly Mine too. If you are careful with the trimming at the end, you can cut it so that it just tucks in where the actual display ends and get a really good fit, then a couple of strips of insulating tape over the meeting point and it presses it down snug  |

Mine has contact between the fire button and the cable and moves a little when I press the fire button. On a few FB posts the problem they are talking about is the button rubbing on the ribbon cable and rubbing away the insulation causing shorts and/or open circuits. Think I will sort it the way VapingBad has. I really dont want to lift the screen, seems pretty well stuck down and soooooooooo easy to snap. In case anyone reading this isn`t aware, the display screen IS NOT PLASTIC, it is better described as a thin slither of glass or crystal. Been there, done that ........................... fecked that display
The fix here will stop the rubbing and sort the problem,
Just done mine, a word of warning, dont think you can bend your clear plastic strip and simply push it in and hope that it gets behind the ribbon cable, it wont. The front edge of the plastic strip will push down on the ribbon cable and put a kink in it which could conceivably make it worse. You really have to work it in from the side and get behind the loop of the ribbon cable as in the pics above. When you think you have it done, get a torch and a magnifying glass if you have to and check it. If the ribbon cable has ended up underneath the front edge of the bent plastic strip it could be trapped in a position that ensures the fire button is always rubbing against the cable.
The other method, my display actually looks crooked when seen with the little cover off, but is spot on when looked at with the cover screwed back down. |

Oh bugger, I was walking down the stairs with my laptop in my hand, fell and pressed some buttons. In a bizzare coincidence I seem to have ordered the SS one with a black tank and some spare coils by DHL in a pre order, ah well, cant be helped  EDIT .................................. if anyone else is interested in this mod, do let me know and I can tell you exactly how I fell down the stairs  I just put one of the 0.9ohm coils in an Atlantis v1 that needed a coil change on my iStick 50w, recommended w is 20-35 so I tried it at 50, burnt taste - knocked it back to 40w and it was a lot better, have now set it to 35w recommended high and it works fine no problems at all, doubt I will buy any of the stock 0.9ohm coils but the Ni-200 will definitely be added to my stock, also note that FT now have some of those gold plated Ni-200 Claptons to order: www.fasttech.com/p/3925200Yes, I suppose that the sucking power of ceramics has it`s limits but to be honest, I see no reason to go above my 20ish watts and really looking forward to TC ing on the ceramic setup with nickel coils The PG/VG ratio will probably have a big influence on the usable power as well. |

My black Target Kit arrived yesterday from from Heaven Gifts, including a sample Target Tank, which was the same as the one included in the kit but with spare glass tube & o-rings, both had 0.9ohm coil installed and spare 0.15ohm Ni-200 coil, whipped out the 0.9 and replaced with the Ni-200, and have the mod @ 500F and 50w - it can definitely keep up with the wicking - no burnt hits at all, personally I would have liked a bigger (5ml) tank especially as it is only bottom fill, Vaporesso's Orctank should be a bit better, same capacity but is top fill. What`s your impressions about the ramp up time Bob ? |

It`s the coil set up that caught my eye, interesting. You would hope there is some sort of preheat there, must be harder to get that set up up to temp |
