Replacement 510 connector for iStick 50w??

[BigDvon91]

So i think ive stripped the threads on my istick 50w, my tank seems to cross thread all the time and it doesnt screw on first time all the time.

Can i get replacements or have i ballsed my istick up?​

If your 510 threading isn't completely trashed you could use this adaptor by eLeaf: iStick 510 to eGo Adapter

In the original iStick thread, where the 20w had cheap threads and stripped on many of our units, there were a few who were brave enough to use a FatDaddy 510 or Varitube 510 -- but it does include dismantling the unit, cutting the top cap and soldering. Details are here:

Are you sure that it's the threads on the iStick and not the threads on your tank that are cross threaded?

That was my thought exactly. Have you tried the tank on another 510 device?

After a bit of swapping about it does seem its the thread on the tank, or should i say beauty ring. BUT can i ...... get it off!! its well and truely jammed on my subtank!

you have it on the adapter then?
I'm confused how you have a beauty ring on an iStick 50 with a subtank *looking at my own and it's flush on the iStick*

I have the full subtank, not the mini.the subtank has a slight overhang.
