The Vision Nano clearos I have do fit in the Gripper I have from madvapes. I think it's best to use with the little 510 to 510 adapter (gives about 1/4" of length) but it'll go in without it. I've got them sitting right here and just checked. I check the ohms on them every once in awhile and this one is 1.9Ω, pretty average. By not using the adapter, it might be difficult to get it out again since the mouthpiece is threaded...I just did it twice. It's a little too stealthy unless I want my nose hitting my finger while vaping. lol

The LR XL cartos are on sale here. SmokTech 510 Single Coil Cartomizers XL (5pk) - 1.7 ohm Low Resistance - MyFreedomSmokes.com I've looked for lower resistance but didn't get far.

I wasn't aware of the shorty but still think it could get stuck in the bottom. I was thinking you guys were talking about the extender which I linked in OP that basically makes the hole worthless as nothing is protruding into it.

It sure could, just be easy on it and don't over tighten, if anything, over tighten it to the Nano before you put it in the Gripper. You could go with the unsealed shorty 510 you linked above, or a sealed, up to you, either will work. This should work with Kanger T4s as well, but they are higher ohm, I think around 2.5, and I think you can find Nanos rated at 1.8 ohm.

Thank's all I guess I'll be buying a shorty 510-510 adapter and just hope it doesn't get stuck in bottom. Gripper was only $10 so not too bad. I've noticed it's been pretty hard to get my carto to screw in tightly anyway. Using the extension works just fine so threads aren't stripped. So 510-510 might help because even the carto's that came with it are pretty hard to screw in since it only sticks out a few mm.

Thanks and let me know if you find any other low ohm carto's or nano's.

That's basically what I was doing on plane (not recommending it) with a disposable white cloud fling mini ;) Hold in for 30-45 seconds and nothing comes out. The gripper seems to make more of popping sound though...I may have just overloaded it?

Does the "The Gripper" from Madvapes any good for $10.00?
