At one time, the only Nzonic clone was made by EhPro - if you have one of them (congrats, they're an excellent tele-mech)... the thread is right hand, and as I recall from the first day of ownership, fairly tight. If there are others making them now, then below may not be useful advice.
The minor trick is - If you hold the knurled contact with pliers, small enough to fit down into and between the button housing, then press firmly on the button while turning the pliers... you should be able to break the thread loose.
Spinning the lock ring down may aid in holding the button, but doing so will make it more difficult to get a good plier grip on the contact.
Hell, for all I know, they're loc-tite'ing them these days (which would be odd, because being able to take them apart for cleaning/inspection is a function of ownership)... so if the first method (alone) doesn't work, use a heat gun if you have one, to loosen the loc-tite, or a small torch, if you can be fairly careful about it. ;-)

I think I see my problem you said right to loosen I was trying to turk to the keft lefty loosy so thats probably what im doing wrong
I love this mod however the brass/gold finish only lasted about 1 week but oh well

Actually, I did not say "right to loosen", I said "right hand thread"... which is oc course, left, or counter-clockwise turning to loosen. I think, you simply need a pair of pliers that will fit down into the button body... as probably it's more than just finger tight.
You're welcome... I hope you get it apart.thezoo said:
Unfortunately I tried both directions vise grips on the button pliers on the inside contact its just chewing up the side of the contacts I jusst emailed the vender to see if I can get replacement parts if I can im gonna dremel the old part off clean the threads and install the new ones I think it may be cross threaded
My Nzonic clone doesn't need much work, it comes apart by itself every couple vapes so I am going to show it the waste basket.
