N00b Question - What is the 'Core Adapter' for?

[Jim255]

I just got my iTaste VTR delivered! Well excited for when I get home later. One thing I don't understand. What is the core adapter used for? I can see it would fit between the VTR body and the Clearomizer, but as the pictures show the VTR without this installed, do I need it?

Many thanks for any help!

Isn't that the adapter for 510 and eGo threads?

if its what i think it is (which is the adapter to raise the connector pin to above the body of the vtr) it is for your bigger tanks that won't fit through the ring on the VTR.
I think you can fit a protank through the hole but an aspire nautilus tank would not fit through the ring, so you install the adapter which allows you to fit the tank on the top of the vtr. it would look more like the mvp that way, with the tank sitting on top of the box mod.
hope this helps

Well, I can thread it in to the VTR body, then thread the clearomizer on to the cone adapter, so unless the other clearomizers have a greater diameter, I don't see a purpose.

Hi jim and welcome to the forum!

ratizz has it right. It's an adapter that you can put on the iStick that will allow you to use both 510-threaded clearomizers ( the ones with male threads) and ego clearomizers (the ones with female threads) on your device.

You dont need to use it if all you have are 510 clearomizers, but some folks keep it on the iStick anyway to protect the threads in the iStick. That way, if they strip the threads, it's just the inexpensive adapter that they have to replace, not the iStick.

Hope that helps and Happy Vaping!

yeah mate, you can get loads of clearomisers that wouldn't fit through the ring at the top of the VTR. thats what the adapter is for.
Curiously, what clearo are you using?

^^^That's the main reason I never purchased the VTR. Not many tanks that can slip through the ring. And since was primarily into rba's, it just proved to selective. When shopping for me first regulated, was a top contender, but not out yet, so went with the Provari.

They done some improvements in the last year, basically if you can vape it without it, then you don't need it, if not, then likely you do...... or something like that.


Vape long and Prosper.!!!!

Thanks for all the great replies, you lovely bunch of Vapers!

As I am new to vaping, I have a lot to learn regarding modifications and power settings. I am happy with the standard tank which came with the VTR, although the vapour is a little warm. I'll see how I go.

As I only have one tank at the moment (more on order), I have bought 5 coil heads. The idea is that when I finish a tank, I can strip and clean it, but keep the coil head in a small plastic screw top tube for the next time I go to that flavour e-juice. This way the flavours don't get mixed. Variety is the spice of life, and all that!

Just trying Bubblegum e-liquid, and it's rather pleasant!

I cut the ring off mine and made it so I could use more tanks on it

 

[Derker]

That sounds nice

 

[tj99959]

It's just a 510 extension, nothing more.

I just use the same coil when switching flavours. I find I only taste the old flavour for a few minutes.
I would have to have way too many coils on the go to have one per flavour.

You will understand once you get addicted to DiY lol
