510 in the AVS

[buGG]

Did you have to file the screw like I did Bugg?

no, i'm not using the screw method, or anything. i'm just sacrificing about a quarter of the tank to use an unmodified 901-510 adapter. since i refill pretty regularly, it's not that big of a deal for me to just top off and make sure the juice level is above the adapter and the air holes on the 510. but no modifications at all, and using the 510 in the AVS.

the clear AVS tank will make seeing the juice levels much easier, but i'm thinking there are a couple solutions to this which could come from imeo. one is to make a center post mount that will accept the 510 natively and account for the fact that the air holes on the 510 are at the top of the connector, just above the threads, and not on the sleeve of the atomizer like the 901 is. because of this, when the 510 connects to the center post mount and comes up through the bottom of the AVS tank, the connection itself will need to be slotted so that the 510 will still have the air holes exposed to pull the juice in, and the AVS center post mount probably needs to be lengthened/raised up in the tank ever so slightly in order to make sure that the air holes, now at the bottom of the 510, are exposed and able to allow the juice in. this would account for less wasted space using a 510 natively over using it with the 901-510 adapter, but probably not a whole lot because the top of the 510 atomizer still needs to meet the AVS top cap assembly, securely and without flooding. another option is to do this native 510 adapter and make a new tank, a shorter tank, possibly wider, possibly not, that would allow the 510 to sit lower in the tank but still allow it to connect with the top assembly. but the best option, without modifying atomizer lengths, air hole locations, or center post assemblies, is to make a custom 901-510 adapter that puts a solitary air hole in the middle on the side of the 901-510 adapter to simulate both the aesthetic and functional setup of a 901 as best as possible. i'm guessing this is stormy's method; and if you can maintain the functionality of the adapter with a hole on the middle side which would draw the juice in and feed it to the two small native air holes at the top of the connector side of the 510 atomizer, then it should be the most efficient way to do it.

My tank can be empty with my method... Works just like a 901 so far.

i believe your method works great, i just don't want to modify anything so i make-do with the setup as it is, and add a 901-510 adapter. how do you vape all the juice and empty your avs tank if the adapter, roughly 9.5mm, is still fully seated inside the tank? i get that vaping on an angle moves the juice towards the exposed air holes, but that happens when just using a regular 901-510 adapter too, i've never tried to vape it dry, but i can't imagine i would be able to either...not with the setup i use.

Hopefully Imeo is sending me some of the adapter to modify. Yeah, bit scary for the masses to do it, I can imagine the issues

I drilled my hole in the side of the adapter. I guess it don't matter as long as there is a hole there.

Stormy, where did you find this wonderful idea,,, hahahahhahah,,,,,, the biggest thing and toughest thing about this 510 set up is letting just enough fluid into the 510 Atty guys, as stormy says he drilled the hole in his adapter, and NOT messing up the internal part of it he probably made just the perfect hole as I did. The 510 sucks in so much fluid when you take a vape that this hole must be "minute" for it to work, and the CR open a good bit too,, a friend made me a different connector that will accept a 510 in a machine shop and this would be best for Imeo to make since it can be made to allow this perfect amount of liquid in through it and not flood the Atty, the hole needs to be lazer because a drill bit will be to big in my opinion, maybe even a series of lazered holes would work best..! This is only my opinion, im sure someone will argue it so its only my opinion.

Pictures of the adapter please.

 

[skullfreak]

whats the threads of a 510?
if i can get a tap i make some up on a cnc lathe

 

[imeothanasis]

7x0,5mm skull my friend

 

[skullfreak]

5mm i have those. can i use aluminum for the connector?

i think if the 901-510 adapter is customized without the existing slits on the top of the 510 side, then by sealing them up and putting two small slits on opposing sides of the adapter it would function more like a true 510 and keep flooding to a minimum. you would't have to worry about about three or more air holes in the picture, as you would have sealed off the originary 510 air holes above its threads, replaced it with two similar air holes at the base of the 510 threading in the adapter, and would then have the air holes/ juice entry low enough to get that extra 6.5 or 7mm of juice in the tank (approximation of the length from the spot of the original 510 air holes to just above the base of the 510 threading where the new holes will feed the atty from the bottom).

Let's just see MWA's adapter, sounds fantastic. Pictures please.

yes, why not skull. Only try to find a hard one

 

[imeothanasis]

From where the 510 will breath buGG?

I got my wonderful idea right after all the PMs and email with you. I am a she not a he. Hehehehehe

It's hardly rocket science. My advise is to just put your adapter in and see how it fits together. I've done this both times without outside knowledge, just common sense and two minutes of spare time.

Depending on your adapter there is possibly 3 ways to go. File the Screw, file the adapter or drill a small hole in the adapter. Give it a try....

ok got my adaptor today and with the 510 carto it way to long i cant get the mouth peice on?

 

[imeothanasis]

what is the total length now skull?

 

[urbanite]

ok got my adaptor today and with the 510 carto it way to long i cant get the mouth peice on?

Yeah, the total length is a lot longer, it sticks out about 1-1,5cm above the o-ring, but just stick a drip tip into the carto and it should work fine with the two top rings minus the mouthpiece... Worked pretty well for me

 

[buGG]

wouldn't using the native adapter with a 510 in the collector tank, especially a modified 510 carto, be almost as good a solution? it's definitely less juice than you'd be able to put in the avs tank, but it would work pretty well, shorten the overall length of the unit, and wouldn't require anything other than maybe a small hole punched low in the atty or carto side if you need additional air or intake holes.

510=23mm
adapter =10mm
total =33 like the 901.

Am I wrong urba? Exept you are talking about longer 510.
