Flush/flat issue with Jager tank?

[Cyia]

I just got in my Segeli Zmax tele v3 flat top and Kager protank today, set them up, filled the tank, screwed it on and find that the tank has a rather noticeable gap in between the top of the Segeli and the bottom of the tank.

The tank is screwed on as far as it will go. And I've seen vids from PBusardo where his tanks seem to sit nice and flush to the mods. Does anyone else have this issue? I'm finding while this creates great airflow, it's giving me a really airy draw and I'd prefer it to not be that much.[h=1][/h]

Does the Zmax connector have an adjustable center post that you can screw down so the tank fits flush?

 

[Cyia]

I don't think so, I'm honestly not sure :/

Do you see a philips screw or a slotted screw in the carto connector on your Zmax? That's how you would adjust the center post.

The Zmax dose not have a adj center post. You could possibly file down the connection on your tank if you will post a picture of It I can tell you what to do. Or if you can Mod it any to make a better fit.

Ok, so there goes the easy solution.

I don't know anything about the Jager Protank but I have the Kanger Protank. If the Jager is the same diameter as the Kanger than you could use an air tank controller to adjust the air flow and maybe everything will fit flush. It's cheap so it wouldn't hurt to try.

My brain isn't working today. I have the Kanger protank.. I don't know why in heaven's name I typed Janger LOL

Also I'll look into that then! Thank you!

Here are shots of it. I can see that the post is just barely peeking over the mod top base.

The Protank was way too air for me but with this controller it is now perfect. You'll like it. It all should fit flush too at least better that what you have now.

Well, with the connector sticking out that far from the base the air tank controller will probably have the same gap but at least you'll be able to adjust the airflow.

If you do like Buzzzlove suggested and file down the connector you'll lose your air slots but you won't need them with the air tank controller and you'll have a flush mount.

Do you think the gap effects it vs not having the gap? If it's like this normally, I wonder how I can get it less airy?

 

[Cyia]

Ah ok! I'll have to grab my grandpa or dad this weekend and see about filing it down just a bit on the connector and see if that helps. Thanks!

The gap is probably giving you airflow. Whether you have the gap or not that air controller will control the airflow.

Id have to see the bottom of the pro tank to advise you what to do but if your grandad or Pop is handy Im sure They can figure it out for you. Its not to tough just file down the center pin on the pro tank a little. Nothing will sit completely flush on your mod hold it up eye level and sight down the top of it see the 510 connection sticks up just a little bit and has 4 slots in it. This is for air flo but with a little filing on the pro tank you should be able to make it fit better.

Just noticed my avatar is in you pic cool
