Bikenstein, Sorry if I came off a bit short in my previous post but I was a bit freaked out. I took your suggestion and pulled the unit apart real quick. There was a bit of residual juice around the base of the 510. I hit it with a quick spray of CRC Lectra-Motive followed by a blast fro a can of liquid air and buttoned it back up. I've put the Cyclone atty back on it that was on it and that I use for juice tasting and it seems to be O.K although I'm going to keep an eye on it for a while just in case.
sorry - but not all batteries are created alike
it might very well be that one of yours will have a shorter life cycle than the other ...........
First day in a while I haven't had tanks on the 50's, guess we cannot trust them.
Think tomorrow I'll pour some juice on the 510 pin, then gut it later in the day to see where the juice goes to.....
Need to see if I have tools to get those screws out first though.

I didn't think anything of it.
I was freaked out too when mine went into auto fire! Glad to see cleaning did the trick. I wanted to do that to mine but decided to get a replacement in hopes of maybe getting a newer model with the circuit or sealing problem taken care of. I do have a back up 50 but it has some "BLS" too. It ghost fired on me 3 times on the way back from Walmart just now and I happened to notice that each time the screen read .01S. This shows me that the button is sendin a signal to fire the atty as it should but there is no output to fire the coil. I don't think it's the buttons problem but rather a circuit board problem. The same with the vv to vw switching. All the BLS may be due to leaking juice
...............UR Rite!.
Reports are comin in constantly of failed 50's so I advise you to remove your atty's from the 50 and 30 overnite or for storage and clean your firing pin with a q-tip or cotton to prevent juice build up and possible leaking. Leaking may not be the problem or total problem but there is some evidence that it is. Most 50's are doing fine. Failure is reported as being more common after a few weeks use. I'm not trying to issue an alarm just advice to be safe and prevent failure of your mod.

Me too maybe. I'm not going to buy more tools tho. I'm going to use an eyeglass slotted screwdriver driven in with a hammer. Then I'm going to put a vise-grips on it for additional twisting force.
That's all worth like 5 whole points on my ManCard.
Was I correct on an earlier post with the diagram in that it doesn't look like the post will seal unless in the post is all the way up or flattened down? Nothing sealed in-between?

Sweet-Vapes Vapemail a minute ago. GS Air & xtra coils. I'll report back.
That is one cool looking guitar in your avatar!
Never seen a clear plexiglass body - ha!

r77r7r your decision of course is up to yourself!
But these torx bit tools are very cheap and DO NOT DAMAGE the fastener head
what you are suggesting doing certainly does
Would be interesting to see if it is juice leaking in and dripping onto the control circuit. I can see some RTV Silicone sealing off the 510 connection.
I was wondering how juice would get into the 510 connector except by using an atty that pulls air through the 510. Does anyone really use one of these on a 50W?

Troll, all the kanger sub tanks I have will leak if the juice gets low, they leak through the air intake....how?...I have no idea......
I hate anything leaking that is not supposed to... I had pondered the sub tank mini once and I am glad I didn't pick one up.Troll, all the kanger sub tanks I have will leak if the juice gets low, they leak through the air intake....how?...I have no idea......
That and the juice/air bubbles between the glass and the frame would drive me crazy...

That IS very cool! It was built in the late 70's in Pennsylvania. It is pretty sick! I love anything transparent, glass, mirrors, white, or silver like things!!

Put it this way, I would never buy another.
FWIW a couple observations - istick 30 does, I believe, step down. Not arguing about the 20w, but I have the 30w and have tested it on 1.2 - 2.2 ohm coils and it does in fact step down to the lowest listed voltage/wattage. Hope this helps somebody! Vape on!
