Welcome to ECF!

Do you mean the tank won't come off the istick?

Hi Markjw, and welcome!
Is it the tank that won't unscrew from the istick battery unit, or the tank itself that won't disassemble? In either case something was tightened quite a bit too much during the last assembly.

Your Nautilus must have leaked some liquid and got stuck...

Use some needle nose pliers, gently, on the base section of your Nautilus, while holding firmly the iStick. It should unscrew.

Oh, and welcome to ECF!

Don't follow my advice...but when something is stuck I just get a bigger hammer!

Hi! If you have the 20W Istick..I have heard of the threads on top not being stainless and the threads have stripped. Many people have had this problem..so much so that the company made an adjustment for it and offered an bending adapter for them. Basically a cover on the threads that adds a spring loaded pin.
If you get your nautilus off maybe you would consider getting this for your I stick. Good luck!

I too have over tightened my Nautilus 5ml as well. I used a pair of channel locks. I used a hand towl to cover the knurling on the base for protection of mauring.
