brand new vaporesso pro problem 510 > ?

[jPhilly215]

Ok I have never run into this problem and besides a fried cheap and bad lcd screen have been pretty lujcky with my mods .

Just picked up the Tarot Pro .... to be honest I did not even want it but my local BM store owner ordered just for me and at his cost . Id really like to not have to take it back since he went oujt of his way for me .

The problem I can not screw any and I mean any of my tanks onto this mod . None of the threads are stripped on 510 or my tanks . It just does not go on , it feels like it goes on a little bit but they just pop right out . Im going to take a few pics after I post this

Ive tried these tanks no luck 2 diffrent Limitless RDTA Plus , Limitless XL , U Well crown , TfV8 beasr , 2 TVV* minis , horizon Ultima , Vaporesso CCell . I gave up on trying rest ......

You have looked at it to be sure there's nothing easily correctable, like a sliver of metal 'swarf' caught in the threads that's preventing the atty from threading on? You could use a pick to "chase" the threads to be sure. Would seem unlikely the diameter and/or thread pitch would be wrong, but who knows.

Photos are inconclusive as to where the problem lies (to me the threads almost look to be LH) but it may be the thread lead-in is poorly formed or even missing (like if the thread tap was run in from the back side of the 510 fitting and it didn't pass all the way through the fitting). In any event, repair may be possible but if you undertake this yourself you're likely voiding the warranty if it involves any grinding/metal removal. So seeing this is a new mod- and despite your vendor being kind for ordering it for you at cost- it's my opinion that the mod needs to be returned for replacement.

Im really stumped on it , I tired threading both ways but its not the problem . Im really upset because wife was so excited to get this .... yellow being her favorite color and the MOD being perfect power for her RDTA . She is now addicted to making coils . Her go to mods are Targe Pro and Aster both 75w which work with it but 80-100 are best .

If you're a handy-type person who is somewhat mechanically inclined, you might try modifying an unused male 510- like a base from a Kanger atty, or an adapter. Bevel the threads at the bottom (think of it as being shaped like a threading tap, example below), clean the threads up and double check to see the base will still easily thread into a female 510. Then use this to see if you can get the threads to start. You will need to go easy- the tool you made will not be any harder than the steel used for the mod's 510.

The Shop owner took it back he was actually pretty upset about it . He offered to give me money back or a diffrent mod . instead he is is going to just get me another Tarot Mod in by Tuesday . THere was no reason to refund my CC if its just going to get taken back out again anyway . For my trouble he gave me a new coil building tool , mini screw driver set and real nice case for mods/tanks/juice. I told him that he did not have to do that even more so because I got the Mod at price and he only ordered for me .

If you are in Philly Area Vapor-hut on grant Ave is best shop imo around . Its nice to have owners like him taking care of customers . He is actually jelous because I got the smok Alien before him .
