Help with 301 LR from GH1

[tonyorion]

I am having issues with trying to get these to work with the ReoMini and am baffled as to why they do not work on the Mini, which is why I purchased them in the first place. The do not fire.

They work fine on my other PV's (ProVari to test-does not like LR's, my Ikon, and my ePower), but I don't drip so these are basically useless to me.

The ReoMini has worked flawlessly with all of the attys I have used on it, but have settled on a LR 301 with a drip tip for it. So far, not had issues with anything else, including cartos.

I have tried pulling out the center post of the atty and only managed to wreck two attys. There is definitely a difference between these and the Joye's which I have been using. There is definitely a difference in the way the center posts jut out-only a few tenths of a mm. Rather than wreck any more attys, I will probably just add a dab of solder to the bottom of these.

Does anyone have another solution?

Don't be adding anything to anything to put on your REO! I can't help you because you lost me with the "301" thing. I have know idea what a 301 is. If you are talking about a 306 you should not be having problems. You are not giving enough info for people, other than me, to help you. What is the brand of the atomizer? I'm not familiar with GH1. Is it a 306 or a 301? If you want help with something on a REO you have to be more clear in your discription of the problem you are having. I would never solder anything to any atty and try to put it on a REO.
I replied to this post to give it a bump. Try to give more info and some of the Reonaut's might be able to help.

I had never heard of a 301 atty but looked it up. I guess you are having to use an adapter (510 to 301 atty) to get it on the mini. It is indeed strange that it will not function. I am of no help here but at least I know what a 301 atty is. I know someone will come along and be able to help with this.

I would just sell or trade the unused attys and replace them with ikenvape, cisco, or the new hybrid attys.

301??? .............searching....................
wow....uh....I've never used one, let alone knew they existed. If you are using the adapter, then it could be the way the center post on the adapter lines up too. The center post of the adapter should be flush with the outer ring and not extend past that or it could cause a short. If it is adjustable, you may have better luck with that than adjusting the 301s. Hopefully, someone with more 301 experience can address this for you.

adapters have been known to cause issues with various mods so that could be the source of the problem, the center post on the adapter may be adjustable but be careful when doing that not to go too far and cause a short.

Mudflap - Are the hybrid atties available somewhere? I see the listings on avid and cov but they are both saying they will be available soon, if someone has them I need to order now because they sound awesome.

 

[Angler]

I shorted out my Woodvil with an adapter. Never again.

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

Ya...that's why I don't use adapters. I'm sure I might be missing out on some fantastic atties, but I'm happy with my 510s & 306s.

He is talking about Greenhouse1 Atty's, they are super cheap, like $3 each, some like them, personally I cant stand them, the newer hybrids should work well I'm thinking on all our bottom feeders, mine are on the way

 

[mwa102464]

MUDFLAP, those Hybrid Atty's are available now, Bruce launched them last night ! Though it says currently unavailable they are, just add to cart, at least last night they where !

To Angler,

The 301 was a typo, so you need not rip me apart for it. Also, take your condescending and pedantic tone and stick it someplace. My apologies to the others who tried to help for the error.

Moreover, it should be clear enough to state the these attys do not fire on the Reo but fire on my other PV's. GH1 is an acronym for GreenhouseOne, a Chinese supplier which is fairly well known and has a sub forum in the suppliers' section of ECF.

There have been issues with some attys causing contact problems with some PV's due to slight differences in the thread depth and construction. This has also been fairly well documented on the Forum.

The most common solution offered has been to pull out the center post of the atty to make contact. Doing this on these attys seems to break the solder joint, although I have done it on 510's with no problem.

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

I apologize if you mistook our comments as being condescending....they were not intended to be. Speaking for myself, I really have no experience with these and was really hoping that someone who does could comment. No one was ripping on you. I went and found that 301s do actually exist which I did not know. I learn something new every day. So as far as the 306 atties go, I still don't know as I've never bought from GH. So again, perhaps someone with GH atty experience could chime in.

 

[tonyorion]

I did not address the others, including yourself, since you really tried to help. My comments were addressed to Angler who felt that I needed to be lectured to.

That's a bummer I guess all you can do is get a hold of Tim at GH1 for a refund, Tim's a great guy I'm sure he'll do his best to make it right.
