Is there a safe way to repair metal parts of clearomizers?

[AK-OC]

So I snapped the center tube away from the top cap on 2 of my iClear X.1s (The tube is connected directly to the top cap, not threaded.) My vape shop owner canibalized one of her old ones to repair the first one I broke, but the second one, I'm on my own. So unless I can repair it somehow, or find someone with broken glass that wants to sell me the guts of theirs, I'm SOL.

Any ideas? Would lead free (drinking water safe) solder work? Or is there a way to weld it? (I have a brother who is a welder.) I don't want to do anything that might make me sick, but this is my favorite non-rebuildable tank and I don't want to give it up for gone.

looks like your gonna have to spend another $17.99 while they are rebuildable as far as replacement heads they are still considered throw away , i dont know how many vivi novas i bought ( and for each verson that came out ) its one of them learning curves as i look back on my vaping history alot of cash has been spent on devices until i got a couple of expensive genny style rebuildables ( $125 & $75) not saying you couldnt buy a clone and have as good as a result but for 2yrs i have not had to buy anything else so if i were to add up what i was spending per year i have cut my cost in half

You could try a five pack from ebay. If that's your fav.

Authentic Innokin iClear x I XI x1 Pyrex Dual Coil Clearomizer | eBay

I've had good luck with U.S. sellers - not so much from China on ebay.

OOPS! The 5 pack is only coils and 1 tank.

I figured it was a long shot. Thankfully I have a backup. I could buy another, but I think I'll wait and see what the gladius is like.

I do have a couple of drippers, but they stay at home with my mech. A Kayfun or similar is next on my "to buy" list, but that also will be for my mech.

I haven't tried rebuilding an aerotank coil yet. Maybe once I do it will be worth using.
