Hey,

I'm a new vaper and just bought a subox Mini. Everything is great except I screwed the atomizer too tight to the mod(?) (part that holds the battery). I tried the rubber band method but it wouldn't budge. I don't want to damage the device.

What's the best way to loosen an atomizer that has been screwed on too tight?

Thanks in advance,

Cube Full

I can think of a few different ways to try "AT YOUR OWN RISK". You can wrap the base of the tank with the rubber band and then use pliers on it "Gently". You can try putting a small screwdriver in the large air hole opening and try to loosen it that way. You can try putting the mod with tank in the freezer for 5 minutes (remove battery first). Thats all I have seen done by reading the forum, as I've not had this issue with my tanks.

Good luck.

I've done this before on some mods (my friends tell me I have "Lana Hands" in reference to Archer) your best bet is to just try to gently work it out though it may take hours. One time I did that and it took me two days of consistently trying to unscrew it before it actually let go, just make sure if you can that most of your grip is along the base of the tank.
