Could there be any harm in running my atomic RDA with one less negative post? one of them popped out (no clue why) i was giving my screws a little tightening check (hardly any pressure at all) just to make sure the connection was still good as ive used the coils for a few weeks now and was going to re-wick when my post turned and popped my coil. so i took the coil out to inspect further, once the coil came out the post just fell to the desk.. i popped a parallel coil in the remaining two posts and put it on a ohm reader and it ohmed out at .53 (normal) i put some juice on it and gave it a fire on the mech and its vaping fine so i put the top cap on took a few drags and it hits and tastes fine..

POINT is im wondering if the fact that it is missing a negative post could cause any issues with a hotspot on the deck or anything of that nature that could be unsafe until i get a new RDA.

Thanks in Advance and happy vaping!

Waitin on an atomic in the post... I read that the NEG posts are just pressed in. If one gets loose or falls out it can and should be pressed back in.
If you let it wobble or stay loose, it will distort the hole and repair becomes more difficult.

You will not have any issues, you just have a two post atty now instead of a 3 post.

Have fun
