what issue are you having? are the batterys too long, to short, to thick to fit inside, you hear rattling inside, i know that alot of the clones wont like button top batteries but flat tops will work.
Check the wrapping on the batteries that don't work. Sometimes they'll have an extra bit on either the positive or negative end that prevents it making a connection. If that's the case, you can cut off the excess with a craft knife. Just don't cut much off, because that can cause issues too.
Just make sure it's working too - put it in a mod that you know works and make sure the battery is good.

They just won't fire it's in there solid both are flat top it's just strange I had a cronus 231 telescoping mod that they work perfectly in but in the stingray they just don't fire
I looked at the batterys and everything looks in good condition it loops like the top of the efest is a little lower than the Sony but the difference is slight and when pressing down on the battery top the excess on the efest moves down I also checked it in the other mod and it works great
It's obvious that a stingray type top cap like the one above needs button top batteries to work;
A particular flattop battery might happen to work but that's just a fluke.
Now this one below will work with both button top and flat top:
Did you check the battery wrapping? The more you say, the more I think that's the issue. (This is still assuming the battery is a known good battery.
Then you need to adjust the smaller screw to make contact with the top of the battery.
There's a reason why flashlight tubes and regular regulated tube mods come with a spring at the bottom
When you go for a bottom switch mech, it's a tradeoff with that spring; now you got no spring to make up for small millimeter differences between batteries; one solution is to use a telescopic mech; otherwise, you got to do some sort of adjustments with screws to make contact with the battery.
Your battery shouldn't be rattling/knocking around inside the tube otherwise you have poor electrical contact.
That's what it was thank you for the help my attys screw was to far in
