The button will foul when there is juice present & juice between those plates is caused by a leak from the 510 insulator. Remove the plates then remove the 510 pin, there will be a piece of blue high temp hose on the 510. That acts as the insulator for the pin & also set's the height. You should have some additional blue hose in the box for the mod. Cut the new blue hose the same length as the old one, also if you want to raise or lower the 510 pin you can cut the hose to a different length. Clean everything up & apply Nolax or Deoxit to the plate, button & around the top of the button where it contacts the body. Reinstall & do not over torque the 510 with the new insulator. Fire the Cam-M up & proceed to get hit in the head like a hammer with vapor :thumb:
Thank you for this elaborate answer...this seems to be the right fix..unfortunately I could not a blue hose in the box. I got this one from the classies and while it did come with the spare grub screws and the tool, and an extra bottle, it did not come with the blue hose. Any possible alternatives?

Hmm, you'll need some high temp hose & I doubt you can locally source some living in Egypt, I can't source it locally in NH either. Maybe Tom will chime in with the exact size & temp rating? In the meantime you can try to trim the hose you do have a little shorter? Hopefully it doesn't sink the 510 even deeper causing your atty to not connect? If you can't source some I can give you some of mine, just let me know & I'll drop a length in the mail to you.

Thank you very much for your generosity! I will try to see if @magnetnerd has the spare hose and see if he can mail it to me. If not then I will get back to you for assistance!
@magnetnerd ..do you have this hose lying around somewhere buddy?

Actually the help and support I got from guys around here in this thread as well as other squonking-related threads is amazing to say the least. People have consistently been both very cooperative and very generous!

Tom, I melted my chuff tip on my stumpy.. Turns out I did not lock my Reo button before putting it in my pocket. Do you have any extras laying around? Or do I need to go straight through Element Mods?

Got in touch with magnetnerd. He has the very same problem with his other CAM-M that he kept and didn't get the hose with either mods. I hope Chowder has some at his disposal. Otherwise, it would be great if you can send me some.

Predator by Hellfire Mods. Just a prototype at the moment but seems nice. Top airflow. I'd imagine you could rock a single coil through the center as long as it was big enough. The biggest problem would be that these Hellfire attys are usually produced in limited quantities. It will also be released with a BF pin so I'm not sure if you'd have any interest, Chowder. Just throwing it out there. I have three Hellfire attys as well as a Venom and they are high quality.

Anybody receive their Hauster2 yet?
I ordered a pair, but only got one delivered. And China is on holiday until mid February...[emoji16]

I've yet to build it because I got it the same time as my first Stumpy, but I did put it through a cleaning cycle. And changed out to the bf pin.

I don't do Hellfire.... Tried it previously, explained what I was going to do... 3 weeks later he did the same thing. No thanks.....

Doc:
Please disregard the price if you are on the last list.
AERONAUT RDA Bottom Feed by Catfish
The price if you are on the catfish list from weeks ago the price was posted with that list.

Could someone bump the list? Those people get first dibs on these 6 I will get more.

Clocked the Predator a few days ago and it will definitely be my next purchase. Got a Venom myself as well as a couple of Hellfire atties. As well made as any other vape gear out there.
