Is this fixable?

[Zach904]

The screw on my kayfun lite plus deck wont tighten down. I can still fire up the coil, but my hits are weak as hell. Is there any way to fix this issue? The screw will screw in all the way down, but will just keep spinning, and not tighten against my coil end

This thing is only 2 months old, I hope it isn't trash now..

Is their customer support? I wouldnt vape that if i were you, could cause an explosion or something.

No customer support, its a clone from tobeco bought cheap on Ebay.
How would it cause an explosion? If it loses contact, wouldn't it just not fire?

If it flops loose and shorts out....it will fire, continuously.

Its just a possibility. Remember that these batteries arent the most stable things in the world. Im not saying that it will happen, just saying its possible. If there is no customer support and you aren't knowledgable about fixing electronics i would suggest getting a new pv. Nothing good can come from putting damaged electronics near your face

If it came with a spare parts bag, check and see if there is a spare in it. I had one of mine that did that only was new out of box. Changed the screw and all has been good. Seemed to be a slightly different size than the one installed from factory. Could have just been threaded shallow. If the deck is stripped hopefully it is the positive deck as those are available in the kit from FatDaddy Vapes.

Maybe im describing the situation wrong.. I don't think it would fire continuously unless I push the fire button. I use a mech mod nemmy clone. The two screws that screw down a coil inside a kayfun... one of the screws wont screw tight, it just goes all the way down and sits lightly on one of my coil ends that is wrapped around screw. It will just spin round and round without being snug and tight.

If the screw itself is stripped and you will be able to see the threads smooth on them than a new SS M2x0.4 HD32 screw will work fine. If the post is stripped out you would have to find the next larger size screw should do the trick. I am not sure of the size you will have to research that. You can find the screws at Screws,SS M2x0.4 HD32 - Kidney Puncher they come with a few in a pack, it is not one individual screw.

Most vape stores have a dedicated builder working there. Find one and take it in. See what the builder has to say

I don't know how a loose screw would make a mod continuously fire. I don't really know if I have anything new to add. Try a new screw. Hopefully yours came with extras. If not I know that you are able to buy kits that include spare screws and o rings. If that doesn't work then you'll probably have to buy a new one. The unfortunate pitfall in buying clones. That can sometimes happen, but definitely isn't guaranteed.

I had not even thought about the extra spare parts that came with the KFL+... It seemed like the deck itself was stripped. I found the spare parts, and it had extra screws. Put in a new screw and sweeeet, it works

Thanks everyone for the swift response
