I have the v1 and it is my 90% of the time device till I get my REO. Nothing I have hasn't fired on it, but even then the v2 has the adjustable pin. Don't have any rbas so I don't know specifically.

All in all I love the sh_t out of mine.

Just saying... I've owned 4 Magnetos, and have given them all away. Perhaps it's me, I get bored easy... but it never hurts to look at the other possibilities.

Great links thanks, still considering picking one up. My cousin has the Silver Bullet and it's magnificent but for some reason the Magneto is still calling my name. Seems like I'm just going to have to order and try that sucker out!

Dang. That combo doesn't fire for me. The Fogger won't fire either. I think it must be that the center pin on the attys aren't making a solid contact with the floating pin in the Magneto's top cap. I know you can adjust that pin DOWN, but I evidently need it to go UP about 1mm. I'm hoping that maybe the old, original Magneto top caps will work for me.

Kinda bummed. I've got this neato Magneto (see whut I did there?) but all I've got that fires on it are some knock-off drippers.




Just got my v2 in this afternoon. Looks great, has a good feel to it. I absolutely love the button and, it's working great with all my RBA's including my AGA T2.

Really!? Awesome brother thanks for that wealthy info. Any coupons I should know about to cut it a little shorter? :D

Yep, I took advantage of this and got one. When I got it, it was 35 bucks. The V2 was out of stock and I saw that they had the v2 head with the adjustable pin for 10 bucks that you can put on the v1. I picked that up and so now I have the adjustable pin head on the "v1" magneto for about the same price (maybe even a few bucks less).

I love it, It fires everything that I put on it and the vapor is great. However, here is the problem now. . . the firing ring that locks it is stuck on mine. I have googled and found that it has happened to a few people, but I don't know if it has been a problem with anybody here. I think that I probably turned it too hard and I have arthritis in my hands and fingers, and I am sure this figures into it. I always thought that I would need to be careful with the turning of that d**m ring!

Maybe someone has an answer for my problem and I would still highly recommend it to you. It is a beast and I think that it takes the vaping experience to a whole new level.

Vape it up

If the center pin on the Magbeto won't go up far enough to fire with the AGA T2, try adjusting the center pin in the AGA down a bit. Just loosen the thumbscrews and push down on the positive post and you move down the pin and re tighten the thumbscrews. This has gotten my AGA T2 to fire on anything it was having trouble with.

Hope this works for you!

Darn, hopefully mine won't have that issue. Going to order it soon, wish me luck. And good luck with figuring out a way to fire that "neato" :)

Great tip. I'll definitely be trying that if it doesn't end up firing.
