I've had my VTR for about a month now and It's worked really good and it still does but the rotating 510 connector used to be kinda of tight but in the past couple of days it has become very loose. It just spinns around now and I see that it has some wobble to it also. It still works fine but when you put a tank on it (protank 3) it feels like its going to fall out and when you take a draw off of it the tank clangs the ring encasement. Now I don't know if thats the way it's supposed to be from putting tanks on and off and its broke in or is this a problem? I'm asking any other VTR owners Thanks.:blink:

I have the exact same problem. It sometimes does not register the connection, saying NON. Something is definitely loose inside.

I seem to be suffering from both a very loose connector wheel and wonky ohm readings. (iClear 30s 2.0 dual coil read 4.0 ohms this morning on my VTR.) It's not even a week old. I might have to send it back....

I love the form-factor though... I hope wonky equipment doesn't turn me away from this mod... :(

The only issue i've had with mine is the ohm readings :(

From all I have read here on ECF, the 2 issues are actually related, but I'm not sure. I had one of my VTRs with the ohm reading issue. I returned it to the vendor. I have 2 more that both work just fine.

The wheel spins on both of them. However, I make sure my carto tank is screwed in tight (hold the wheel while attaching it), and it really doesn't spin after that. So, really a non-issue for me, but a bit of an annoyance.

I just emailed the vendor about getting me a replacement... we'll see what he says.

Even if I hold the wheel and tighten the tanks down I still get the wobbling and clanging around inside the cage. It's kinda disheartening considering it wasn't exactly cheap. I hope the vendor sends me a replacement and there aren't any issue with that one.

Well... On Friday I emailed him about the really loose 510 connection/ ohm issue. Never heard back at all. Just sent another email a little while ago, because it got worse. (Now it'll sometimes say "NON" and not work.) We'll see what happens.

The VTR is 7 days old... I really hope he makes it right. At least communicating with me would be a start. (And they say email is the best way to reach them, right on their site.)

Update: Vendor got back to me. Replacement is en route. My email got lost to the aether, but I finally got in touch with him. (VapingMe.com - good customer service. Will be ordering from there again.)
