That is not where the negative wire/s should be trapped.

If you look at the video posted by @yinyang you will see that there is no sleeve where your picture shows it. In fact the part shown in your picture is the part that should be inside the ceramic. I changed them over to end up with what I believe is the correct way to have the pins.

Look at the brass coloured pin at the bottom of the green circle and you will see that it is different to that from the picture you show from Focalecig product page. Focalecig suppliers IMHO have got the pins upside down.

Look at the video from 5 mins 16 secs in and you will see where Focalecig suppliers have the pins the wrong way round.

Hope it all makes sense.

The part with the green circle is the very small "O" that is missing, which secures the negative wire/s, which is made secure when it is screwed into the base shown with the red arrow.

barrynorton if you look at the video posted by @yinyang you will see that there is no silicone sleeve in the airflow controller that screws into the 510 base. That will be stopping the airflow controller from working. There is also no silicone sleeve in the 510 base in the video.

I, like you, put it back together the way I received it, which was due to the idiot who built it.

I got now ohms reading because the very small "O" ring I referred is missing, which results in the negative wires not making a secure connection.

I have received an Ithaka from focalecig and whoever built that is a complete idiot.

Placed it on an ohms tester and zero. That was because the negative wires were not secured to anything. The very small "O" ring on the pin that goes into the 510 connector is missing so there is no way of securing the negative wires. They have put silicone sleeves in the bottom of the airflow base so the airflow wouldn`t work. There was another silicone sleeve between the 510 adjustable pin and the base making it virtually impossible to use the adjustable pin. The locking pin that should be inside the ceramic cup was on the bottom of the 510 pin and the adjustable 510 pin was in the ceramic cup. Had to change them around.

I have removed the silicone sleeves that shouldn`t be there and now the airflow works.

In fact I have had to do what the manufacturers should have done.

I have emailed Doris and asked her to send me the very small "O" because until I receive that the Ithalka is useless.

Rant over.

I`m would be happy to save the best part of £100 and buy from FT

Might be a clone, but who`s to know a personal choice I know.

FT have the authentic Aerotank for £13.63, which seems a good price if you don`t mind the 4 week wait.

stu1873 put a TICKET in asking FT to convert your rebate points to a gift certificate. They will only convert full $10.
