smifee , Just thinking the 12v Batteries was back in Feb if I recall. Hope all is well with you. I knew I recognised the dog in your avatar but could not place it.. Now you mention 12v batteries I tuned in straight away. I am terrible with names and tend to recognise people by their avatars, which is fun on AAEC when people change them.

Brambles as well as being my 12v battery guru you are now my plastics guru. :DYou explained it very well on another thread some months ago but I still got it wrong. Fortunately I do manage to get it right when ordering. Heck, I have been found hiding in here!!  |

This sums it up for me in the Telegraph article..
"I completely understand concerns about potential risks from this phenomenon but it is vital that public health experts separate opinion from evidence."

PET are indeed squeezy and semi opaque . . . . whilst the LDPE are transparent and not so squidgey.  Other way around my dear. PET is the clear hard plastic ones, and as geordie_vaper has mentioned are better for long term storage. Flavours which are aromatic such as peppermint and aniseed as an example will leach through the soft plastic ones faster. A lot of small PET (clear plastic) bottles have a thinner area created on one side to make them easier to squeeze so worth checking if your 'hard' bottles have a soft spot. |

It is brilliant on this forum it is. People are just themselves and don't hide behind their monitors pretending to be someone they are not like on many forums. Arrrgh, don't know what I am trying to say there... anyway...Awesome, Affectionate, Enlightening Compassionate ..AAEC traa raaa.  I'll get my coat... Dentist check up today..9.30. At least it is not the Chinese dentist at 2.30. |

Pepperty, You have autosol. Read this earlier in thread as you used to clean up the brass bar. Put a drop on the 510 connector base threads, or body threads, and screw in and out many times. This should clean up the threads with ease. Apply pressure to the connector in various directions as you turn it back and forwards. Clean off all the black muck which is produced and you are good to go. Do not forget to remove 510 pin and plastic insulator and clean all that up so the pin slides freely. ( She has drunk all the Autosol after running out of Vodka - Editor) EDIT - Or as VapingBad said above.

he says that the positive end works (brass button - battery -bar - 510 brass into atty works) but the negative - (silver outer ring of 510) can't seem to get back to button to complete the circuit hence no power................. Does that info help? he's saying how can the silver ring outside the brass pin connect to anything? OK, so now you have established it is the body of the mod which is faulty. There are two possibilities. The threaded insert for the switch, or the 510 connector outer part. One of them or both do not make contact to the body. Use your meter again to check between one of the small screw threaded holes in the body (for the bottom cover) and the brass threaded ring, and then the 510 connector outer part and see which ones do not connect to the body. |

One probe on the threads of the m/stick where the switch screws in the other on the outside of the 510. You should get 0.1 Sent from my Nexus 7 using proboards I can't see the logic of that one as the brass ring with grooves for button is not connected to anything else except the anoxidised body (which isnt supposed to conduct? is it..) It is where the threaded inserts are! ..and this is what I think the problem might be. |

The idea is just to short (make a connection from) the switch button to the atomiser body while you press the button and see if it works.

Alternatively just measure the resistance between switch button and atomiser body when screwed in ..actually will be a better test. Should be zero ohms.

Ok, got a test for you Pepperty. Put battery in nipple down. Adjust switch so you think it will be contacting the battery when pressed.....just as normal. Now press the switch and short the switch plunger to the atty body at same time and see if it fires. I am very suspicious the brass threaded insert for switch is insulated from the body by the anodising. Could be the 510 base end as well/instead which is insulated. |
