Someone in this thread recommended to me to try prying the pin up very slightly and it should work again. It does make it work temporarily to, just gotta keep doing it whenever it stops reading the ohms lol.
Why should they? Attys sit high on lots of mods. You force em down you are likely to break something.The line isn't specific to the 510. It applies to ANY non-Wismec component that damages the mod in any way.
A damaged 510 caused by a non-Wismec atty that had a 510 post that was too long counts as damage caused due to useage with non-Wismec components.
If your atty sits like this:
And you try to screw it down tighter so it sits flush and damage the 510 in the process, Wismec WILL NOT cover it under their warranty.
What atomizer is that? I've never encountered anything like that, but according to some people, that picture I posted it looks like my 510-pin looks pushed far down.
Wow! Very sorry to hear that! I got a lackluster response, but at least I got one!
If an atty screws down snug but still has a gap under it. either live with it or get another atty/mod.
Cranking it on down will generally break something.

If Raising the pin corrected the Problem, The pin had Rotated while Atty was being installed, causing the Soldered Center(+) wire to Contact the Body or a Grounded internal part.
While prying to Raise the pin, that contact was cleared, likely the pin shifting.
Unless you are willing to Root internally to see what happened and Tweak to avoid, it could happen again.
It's been a while since the last post here. I'm interested to see what happened with the warranty. I'm thinking that they aren't honoring it, but the RX200S is supposed to have the DNA 200 510 connector that allows longer thread length on the atomizer. That's supposed to fix the long 510 thread issues.
It was the RX200, not the RX200S that had 510 connector problems.
I bought a Wismec 510 heat sink to put on my RX200S, just in case. It also sinks the heat from the atomizer and prevents the RX200S case from getting too warm.

I am happy to report I've had no problems with the 510 using a variety of different subtanks...tanks all seat flush and fire perfect.. Just sayin.

I forget where it was I read about guys replacing the 510 connector with one they ordered that fixed the problem. The poster provided pictures of the procedure and the name of the 510 kit he used to upgrade the RX200. The replacement had longer throw length and would take the TVF4 atomizer with no problems. After the replacement it looked the same from the outside.
ETA:
The part was a 22mm Fat Daddy Vapes 510 connector.
Here's the link for replacing the 510 connector. It was on ECF.
Replacing the 510 in an RX200... Fairly easy actually.

Well even after reading this thread.. I still want one. In fact, the only thing holding me back from geting an RX200s was the intitial investment of a new 4 bay battery charger and 6 new cells.
I still plan on getting one though!

No problem with the 510 and I really like the bigger screen..

I've had my RX200S for over a year and it's a great mod. I find myself carrying the Smok Alien 220W around at home and away. The Alien fits in a jeans pocket just fine since it's about 1" thick x 1 3/4" wide x 3 1/4" high. I get two full days vaping at 10W on a couple of Samsung 30Q's.
Around the house the RX200S is a good choice. The shape fits the hand well and all functions, including TC mode work fine. It's triangular shape doesn't fall over if you bump it when you reach to pick it up. It's just not pocket friendly.

Just to follow up on this; I realize this is old, and I realize the company is located in another country, but in the United States, at least, "unauthorized repair" alone isn't enough to void a warranty. They have to be able to show that the repair was done "improperly" and actually caused the malfunction, or else they're still on the line to make it right. Even that little "warranty void if removed" sticker isn't legally binding, if one were to actually take them to court over the matter, although their legal team is probably more expensive than yours...
My Roughneck on the RX200 is too airy. It makes better cloudz on the Rig.
No matter how many times I see the RX200S knocked for whatever I am sitting here still using mine years later as my daily beater and it has been dropped so many times I am actually thinking about a wrap or a new paint job on the battery cover. This outlasted a Movkin Disguiser 150W which got trashed after one drop.
