ive had my mvp 2 for a month and i love it...except when i woke up this morning it seemed as if the 510 connection had expanded. nothing will stay screwed into it..i have a PT2, hypertank, and iclear 30... all of them worked and screwed in fine last night...and they all work in my ego still..can anyone give me some insight on what might have happened?

Wow. That's weird. Never heard of that before. Was it on the charger all night??
You might want to try a 510 to 510 adapter or ego to 510 adapter. Did you do anything to possibly strip the threads?
It's unlikely that chrome plated brass "expanded" over night... unless you have evil, metal working elves, with a nice selection of tools, living in your attic. ;-)
Wild guess is - either there weren't very good threads to begin with (rare with innokin products), or you've over-tightened the attys and stripped what threads you have... or a combination of the two.
Your attys are stainless steel, the MVP 510 collar is, again, chromed brass, so... any brass showing in the threads?
You can try saving it with a 510/510 extender... if that fits the MVP 510 threads snugly, leave it there.

i mean i never over tightened the threads..maybe using the hyper tank because its so heavy i miss threaded them...yea there is brass showing...but it worked perfectly fine last night..i unscrewed my tank put it on the charger..when i woke up the tanks just went straight down barely touching any thread
The MVP 2 is charged from the bottom input port, not the threading. is it possible the charger stripped the threads?
lol i live with my girlfriend..but she doesn't smoke at all so i don't see a need to...idk i guess im gonna have to roll with my mini PT2 for a little bit until i find a new mod 
The chrome plating is quite durable with normal use, so maybe what you perceive to be "just snug"... might be more than you imagine.
would love some suggestions for a new mod as well...nothing thats gonna break the bank though...and thanks for the help everyone
The MVP2 is a terrific and inexpensive APV... if you don't like that, then you'll need to be more specific.
i noticed the chrome plating coming off whenever i cleaned it with a q-tip because of a leak

You can use the Mini base on your PT2 actually. Take the PT2 base off, put the coil in the mini base and attach to the PT2. It even works with the beauty ring on the MVP2. Like So...

That is the coolest setup I've ever seen!
Try wrapping the 510 threads of the tanks with a turn or 3 of teflon pipe tape. It may give you enough extra width to make up the threads.
