Just wanted to get opinions and see if anybody knew any reason why I shouldn't do this. I have a Terminator Ody clone, and I have been having issues with the center post coming unscrewed and getting loose and causing connection problems. Every time I would take it apart to clean/rebuild a coil that post would be loose and I was having to crank it down again to try and get it to not move (center post would spin when I went to tighten the nut down on my positive connection). So last night, while doing this, the ceramic cup cracked and broke apart... and of course I don't have a spare, so Terminator is out of commission until I can get one shipped (definitely getting backups).

My question is... is there any reason I shouldn't put some blue loctite on the threads to attempt to hold this thing in place and not come unscrewed all the time and cause the stress on the ceramic from tightening over and over? With the design, juice shouldn't come in contact with it, and it shouldn't really get all that hot I wouldn't think.... I'm talking more for health reasons here, I should still be able to break it loose and get it apart again if I ever needed to.
