LOL no.. You need a screw driver, a credit card and a paper-clip to fix this.

Insert the credit card between the movable part on the deck and the solid part, and then tighten the bottom screw. Once it is completely tight, you will notice that the notch in the screw is either lined up with the air-hole or will be at 90 degrees to it.

If it's kinda somewhere in between, then it means that the air hole is not lined up with the hole on the inside of the center post. That's where the paper-clip comes in.

Insert the paper clip in through the air intake and measure that it goes past atleast to the depth of the centre post. If it does not, you may have to crank the screw a little bit to make sure that the holes line up. Does not take much..and definitely not a cause for return.

Best of luck. Let me know if you have any questions.
Lol! I already sent the email. I'll try this on my next fill (or the next short, whichever comes first). I did try to turn the center post before you posted this, with a screwdriver, and it didn't budge. I didn't try too hard because I didn't know what I was hoping to accomplish.

Thanks!

    You need to get it tight enough to stop the positive block from moving but at the same time you need to line up the slot in the post with the air port on the side as Dusty explained , you may need to take the positive block off and hold it in place and then tighten it , if you're waiting for the next short , please tell me you don't use mechs .

    I don't use mechs. But now you've got me nervous. I know you guys think this should be an easy fix for me to do, but I'm a little intimidated by it. Only one of them is loose, I'll use the other one till I get this sorted out.

    As long as you're not using a mech , you're safe , but it's best not to use it till you get it sorted , don't be nervous just take your time with it and you'll do fine .

    Looks like my ProVari experiment just went south, again. $40 lost somewhere in a Philippine Clone, they got their money. I got my order cancelled and now I cannot sign into their website. E-ciggity.com. Never had these problems until looked outside of REOVille....

    Stay with REOVille.

    Don't get me wrong, there have been a few miscues along the way with Reos mods, but Rob will personally answer emails, even his phone is available.
    All I've gotten from e-cigitty so far is computer generated emails. That's comparable to long, winding phone trees. And, finally, after resetting my password (again) I was able to make it to my account page. Order status- refunded. REALLY ? Where ? Is the International Date Line as web-challenged as I am ?

    Papaw , I've cancelled orders before and it usually takes a few days to show up in your account , I'd keep an eye on it and contact your card company just to be safe , this is probably the last thing you want to hear but go with Vape Royalty if you still need a KFC , Bronze , LA and I have done business with them and they are fast and reliable .

    Yep, that's the one. They had their money inside of three hours. On Saturday (Sunday Morning there). Stopping payment wouldn't help now...

    That's a bummer, Brett. I'll confirm what Retic has already said, it takes a couple working days for money to show up in your account. When I had to cancel and reorder my provari, it took 15 days to finally show. A Thai retailer told me that was because it was a debit card - CC takes only a couple days.

    Just got a PM that ProVari Mini is on it's way. I can fidget a few days with some left over cartos from pre-Reomizer days.

    It says they're in Honolulu , maybe Hula can pay them a visit if needs be to grease the wheels a bit .

    oh, the possibilities.... :evil:

    Not what I wanted to hear. They sure got their money fast enough...

    Well, I emphasize that I did indeed get the money back...
