All new: The Precise Simplicity 14500 from Super-T Manufacturing Inc!

[Nach]

You know.... totally forgot you sent an o-ring with the Simplicity 14500!

Also, I forgot to mention, if Efest 14500 is all you have for now and its rattling, simply remove the preinstalled .070 thick oring and replace with the included .100 thick and that should take care of it.

I need some help troubleshooting an rba/tank for a customer. He posted this review video and I've been trying to get some pics of the bottom of the troubled rba/tank from him to help troubleshoot, but haven't received them yet. Is anyone having airflow issues on the Simplicity 14500 when using flush mount rba's/tanks with bottom airflow intake(non side air feed genesis style)?

He said he has trouble with the Chalice, Diver and Grail. Anyone using these and second, do you have pictures of the bottoms of these and their air intake holes?

If those atomizers are properly designed, with the air intakes in the relief of the 510 thread, airflow shouldn't be a problem, even with the tank bottoming out on the cap, but maybe they have some sort of ledge machined on them or the holes aren't put were they should be?

I'm not familiar with the Chalice at all, so I cannot comment on that one.

The Diver, has grooves cut into the 510 (much like the flats on the ELA top cap) which I'm assuming is strictly for airflow, and a bit of a flange that I can see sealing off the airflow.

The Grail houses a 306 atty and has air intake from the side of the housing... should be a non issue. Assuming this user has the "Grail for Diver" then I can see how the Diver's flange would impede airflow.

Here is a link to the manufacturer's website for the "Craven Series" hardware.

EDIT: David, I just made a post to Konstantinos, the owner of Atmistique to hopefully get some additional assistance on this matter.

Looking at the pics, that Grail is side air feed so it shouldn't be a problem. The other two they have the airflow exiting out the bottom of the 510 connection which I believe is the wrong approach as then the air has to try to flow up through the top cap threads. I see they tried to remedy it by cutting slots into the threading of the 510 connection itself to try to get the air back to the top.

Do those maybe have an additional flange too on the bottom of them blocking airflow? Need a bottom shot

I found this pic on the interwebz

And this one

I assume it was designed this way with bottom feeders in mind too.

 

[forcedfuel50]

Thanks Nach. It looks like it should work just fine, unless one other thing, the post is recessed up in there too far, thus allowing the atomizer to come down too far and the atomizer body flange blocking airflow. If it has an adjustable post, i'd recommend lowering it down more, thus pushing the flange of the atomizer higher.

Anyone else running this rba and having problems?

 

[Nach]

If anything, I would think the flange is suspect in impeding the airflow. Not sure how much room there is to spare if the user added another o-ring on that post, if it would keep the rest of the innards from being where they need to be.

EDIT: And you're welcome, David! Glad to help.

Could also be that the grooves cut in the side of the threads of the rba aren't sufficient. They look deeper then they are as the female threads it threads into will extend partially into those grooves impeding airflow. Nothing we do up top may make a difference. I need one to play with to make a final determination. Also could be I just need to go a bit deeper in my grooves.

Can always send user Konstantinos a PM and bring it to his attention. Here's their ECF vendor thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/euro-suppliers/360395-atmistique-mods-accessories-more.html

No airflow problem here using the Diver.
The tanks i'm using have a recess on the bottom cap to allow for the flange so there isn't any gap between tank and mod.

Is there any where I can order a replacement spring for this? I just got one off the forum and it showed up with no spring

Edit: just to clarify I'm talking about a spring for the simplicity 14500

Sure, it uses the same spring as the P+ 10440, so chose the 10440 spring:

Excellent. I have to admit I didn't think I was going to like this 14500 mod but it is so nicely made and hits like a Champ. I'm already in love.

David, if that's the case, why does the webpage say "Please be aware the 10440 Spring will not work well with the Simplicity 14500!"

that's weird, i'll talk to Kevin, must have been some misinformation I gave him. Probably he was thinking we got some springs for the 10440 that weren't working (like one out of 10) so he didn't want to guarantee they did work when he put them on the site.

 

[jwhorner6]

I just ordered the 10440 spring for it. For now I stretched open a old rsst spring to make it fit and it's working pretty well

Does the O rings for precise plus part kit work for simplicity 14500??

 

[jwhorner6]

I have a feeling that this is going to be the beginning of super T taking a lot of my money

It doesnt', but I can tell you if you need to source some at your local hardware store the thin one is a # 14 and the thicker is I believe a #111
