Need some help. When I first put in the CE2 connector it was a pretty tight fit. Now it is loose and wants to spin when I try to connect to PV. Any suggestions on how to make the connector a tight fit now that it is already wired and finished?

Thanks for the help.

The #325 has a diagonal pattern to it when you look at it on account of it being twill weave as opposed to standard weave in the #400.

Dan, I will miss the 15mm, but it sounds like I'm in the minority. Perhaps a second run with the more slender build?

+1 here, I like the slender build as well.

+1 for the skinny too in fact i thought the original would have been a hair smaller to better match the ego batteries. but it would be interesting to see if the same device performs differently at different diameters. some have said the taste is not the same as other genisis attys and i wonder if that is directly related to the wick diameter. i dont have any other genisis yet (besides sg3 and this) and unless i am mistaken (again lol) isnt this a thinner wick than in say a hybrid or other raidy inspired designs?
so a bigger body would let you be able to make a fatter wick...

The only trick I have heard of for a loose connector is to tin the press in area with solder to make it tighter. This means you will probably have to disconnect your positive wire to get it back out to work on.

How can I tell if the mesh I have is 400 or 325?

Did you get two different meshes with your order? It was random who got what extra mesh but everyone should have gotten at least one sheet of 400. The 400 is very easy to tell the difference on compared to the larger mesh. If they seem almost the same you may have gotten 2 sheets of 400. If you are using the 400 with strait VG it may not be wicking fast enough.

Also I went with air holes on the side with a tube to direct the air directly on the coil. This worked better than the air coming up the center. I closed off my center tube and use the side air holes.

Thanks bstedh - took your suggestion and tined the outside of the CE2 connector and now it is tight again.

Appreciate the help!

Dan, did you put 1 or 2 side air holes? Got a pic?

Hey everyone,
Well I got the design ported over to 3/4OD and I think this will be a very versital mod. I solved the center post issue, and it is a solid fix. There is a total of 10 pieces that will have to be turned. This will have the super tank and cover, normal tank and cover, and a T-Tank top. All threads will be set for 48tpi. So the threading will be very smooth like the G-tank. Will have to wait on finishing it, as when I was leaving post today I suffered symptoms of a heart attack and am currently sitting in a bed in the ER as we speak, using my iPad to type this.
Everything looks good so far will post later.

Glad to hear you got that worked out Dan.

In other news, put the tools down and rest man! Don't let it get your health in a bad place. Take care of yourself. LOL. Hope it's not anything too serious.
