You need to screw that pin tight. It's not there to make adjustments, it should be tight. Your adjustment for the atomizer should be done with the top pin - to adjust the battery rattle, you would turn the outer portion of the top pin and bottom of the switch for fine tuning.

Make sure you take off the middle ring its either brass or polished stainless about 1/4", then you should be able to tighten the firing pin all the way down. That was my problem and it hasn't moved in two weeks.
I did all of the above already. Screwed contact pin down really tight an removed the extra ring on the top. Stil after using a few days I notice the vent gap will widen which means the contact pin is loosening. 
Screw that ring down with a pair of pliers. That's what I was suggested to do. I don't have any vape condoms sitting around to put in there, so I couldn't follow the reddit post, but turning that pin a little bit more with pliers (your hands won't tighten it enough) seems to be working for me. It's been about a day now and I haven't had to tighten it.
The fatdaddy firing pin is easy to get tight enough.

The problem is that if you screw it all the way in it's too short and the switch doesn't fire, and if you screw it back to the point that it starts working, then there is not tension on the screw and then it comes loose.
You need the screw to have tension without screwing it all the way it.
Take a piece of wick wire, preferably cotton or bamboo and not silica, wrap it once around the base of the screw and make a knot, then screw it in tightly.
Works like a charm.

Yeah, I second that solution. For 8 or so dollars you get better contacts that stay tight. You have to use the beauty ring if you use both of the contacts in his nemesis upgrade kit, but the switch stays tight and the throw is about 1/2 of what it was.
Normally I would agree. But the threads on these contacts cut into the top delrin better and they seem to hit hard.
However out of the three items I ordered from him, two have arrived. And I stopped hearing from him so I am about to elevate my Ebay dispute.
Did you get tracking?
Has USPS got the package logged into their system?
If YES, you may want to hold off a few days. USPS is in shambles in some areas due to Both cutbacks and unexpectedly bad weather.
I just had one package sit in one postal location for 4 days and another that go routed to some obscure location in lower Va. and had to be retrieved.
The original shipment was with another item I ordered. He forgot to combine them in the package. Which I understand. I sell wire rope of ebay and notification of multiple items can be confusing for the seller sometimes. I opened a case, he said he dropped another set in the mail the next day, that was the 13th. Shipped from California to Arizona, first class no tracking.
FatDaddyVapes also has replacement Delrin inserts for the top cap as well, also Kayfun/Russian rebuild parts and insulators. I do like that he has a knack for making parts that no one else does, but are very useful. But the contact upgrades are so good I ordered a 2nd set for my other clone.
Funny you mention this, I just got package from them and one of the items was missing. i sent out an e-mail last night and didn't hear anything yet, but just right now I got automated shipping notification from fatty vapes. So we will see.
On the subject on the Nemmy firing button, I didn't even bother and from previous order, I replace the Nemesis spring with Fatty Mangets+screws and it work out great.
ON USPS, I cringe every time it goes through LA sorting center (FatDad runs his business in LA county), it usually takes more more than day processed and updated.

I had this issue too with the Nemesis, it would bug the crap out of me and actually loosened enough so that the lockring wasn't in place anymore and the device fired off in my pocket.
After you tighten it with your fingers, use a pair of needle nose pliers and tighten it a tad bit more. Since then, I've had absolutely zero issues with the bottom contact loosening.
