is my vamo done?

[sivo]

Ok, so i decided to try out a carto/tank setup, long story short, i screwed the carto on too tight, and trying to take it off i got off everything except the last little bottom piece, and it refuses to come out, the center pin just keeps turning and turning, is it hopeless? i am stuck using a lambo 4.0 now which is fine except for horrible airflow with my vivi novas... >_<

any ideas, please see pic.

Can you get a hold of the lower portion of it with a pair of small needle nose pliers? Not the center post but the small ring at the bottom of the broken carto? Also make sure that the battery is out while working with it.

Go to lowes or homedepot and get an easyout tool..................dont give up it will come out

+1 on the needle nose pliers idea

I second the recommendation of needle nose pliers. It's probably cheaper than using a laser to precisely cut it off.

you can still spin that off. put a drop of liquid towards the connector to make it easier to spin
needle nose that B
iv had just the treads of a carto stuck on my provari before, just use more force (and b smart about it)
if you think the vamo is done, more force wont hurt anything

wish you the best of luck

Great news! Glad you are back to vaping in vamo land

Might I suggest you get a 510 shorty adapter. It will save wear-n-tear on the Vamo cheap brass fitting and svae your bacon if this happens again. glad you are fixed up for now....

Darn, I guess my suggestion of using a Drill, Then Hacksaw, and a 5lb sledge hammer is too late.

Sorry to make fun, but I can since it's fixed at time of writing this, congrats and whew!

That's good that you fixed it. I saw you said you get tight drags on the vivi novas. If it's the newer version, on top of the threads there are two air holes. What I did was to bore out ( widen ) one of the holes using a 1/16 drill bit and it fixed the tight drag.
