Okay, I have an evod tank, and all was working perfectly fine until I couldn't unscrew it. Now, I can't fill it with juice. I've honestly tried every single thing I could to open it, such as running in under hot and cold water, having all my friends try, and I even used a pair of heavy duty pliers. I just want to know if anybody else has/had this problem, why it's happening, and how I could possibly fix it.
Evod tank problem!!!?

never heard that one before. does the plastic inside the slit window look foggy or white?
That's happened to me with a couple different tanks, EVODs included.
I used a pair of pliers and gently got it loose while holding the tank close to the bottom with my other hand.
I could not even budge it with my hands - it came open relatively easy with the pliers.

oh ya the evods are shiny on the bottom - oops. try wrapping it in a paper towel first next time.
I would try a couple more times with the pliers then smash it into the wall, breaking it into 50 pieces, purely out of frustration. YMMV.

Maybe it has something to do with the weather. Maybe you were out in the cold and then it expanded when you came into the warmth? Or maybe some sticking juice got on the threads and then hardened. You don't have to tighten the base very hard, you know, just tighten it until it gives some resistance and that's all you'll need for it to seal. Hope it works out for you.
This sounds pretty odd, I've never heard of the base getting stuck on an EVOD and only once on a PT2. I guess try some vice grips as a last resort, but that will probably destroy it. You'll probably want to buy a new one anyway... just know that this problem is rare and it will probably never happen again.
Here's a link to the cheapest I've seen them (other than the knockoffs on fasttech): Kanger eVod Bottom Coil eGo Clearomizer Order $10 or more and shipping is free.
EDIT: Just saw you got it open. I'll leave the link here just in case.

A helpful tip... if you're using pliers on your e-ciggy, wrap the jaws with duct tape. You might keep a pair wrapped designated for this purpose. It'll keep it from scratching your tank and other components.
Actually, this is the cheapest EVOD I've found that is authentic Kanger Evod Rebuildable Clearomizer - Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes
Ironically, it's from my favorite juice vendor.
I have 4 EVODs and absolutely love them. Can't wait to get my hands on the EVOD 2 coming out. Dual coil EVOD? Yes please!
