So... Some of y'all know I'm a huge fan boy of the black edition clone. Unfortunately I've actually found a pretty significant point of failure.

So my oldest BE is approx 3 months old, and the threads between the center post and the small adjustable 510 pin is pretty much stripped.

While it still works, the 510 is no longer adjustable (it pretty much just slides back in as far as possible). That pretty much makes it unusable on my provari with the tatroe pro ring. Wouldn't be an issue for folks who use mods with shallow or adjustable 510 connection though.

So... Although I pretty much never ever over tighten my atty, I'm gonna hazard a guess that that's what causes it. So yeah. Don't over tighten your atty!!

The EHpro that I bought came with that lil screw stripped.
The seller was nice enough to refund and send a prepaid bag to return it :thumb:

Back to BE problems again... I put in a perfect cotton/microcoil build and filled correctly, tried all airflow positions and still getting dry hits after the first good pull. So freaking frustrated with this thing. My 3.1 has been working perfectly with the same build for months.

I also have a 3.1 version and it isn't as particular with it build as the lite series are. If you haven't seen it Rip trippers got a excellent you tube video for building the kayfun/micro cotton build. Before I ever fire mine I take three hard draws and make sure I see at least a air bubble rise to the top. If it doesn't tilt it sideways to help release the air lock. Once it gets going it usually good. One other tip, I use a bit less cotton for the lite than the 3.1 it just helps it to wick better.

Thanks for the tips, trying everything. Will report back...
