Hi guys so i just got my first tank from IBTanked.com and i just filled the carto and put it in the tank and all that jazz

i have a question about screwing the carto in, so i mounted everything and then i took a toot and poor vaper, i realized that its because the carto isnt screwed in completely its kinda loose, but i cant find any way to secure the carto in order to screw it tightly onto the batt it just slis and slides and i cant tighten it enough any advice on how to do this ?

thanks guys

Never had that problem with a tank/carto. You mean the screw part isn't actually screwed into the battery all the way? Put the drip tip in the carto and turn the carto that way - providing your drip tip fits snugly into the carto. Usually, on my IBtanked carto/tanks I can just screw it in by rotating the tank as the carto turns with it. What kind of PV are you using? Sometimes with an ego, the center pin has gotten pushed down and you can take a tiny flat head screw driver to nudge it gently up just a tad to make connection.

i mean the carto is screwed into the batt which is an eGo twist and i just cant like screw it in real tight because it will just turn inside the carto tank since i cant hold the carto itself cause theres just barely a little bit of it sticking out from the tank and with the drip tip if i hold it the carto will just turn cause the tip fit perfect not too tight so there isnt that much resistance

If you have any other drip tips that might fit tighter, replace the one on now with a tighter fitting one, then try twisting the the carto more into the battery's connector with the drip tip. Use a relatively firm pressure down toward the battery while doing so.

If that fails, let the tank sit for a day. This will allow the tank's o-rings time to firm up for a tighter grip on the carto. Then you should be able to use either the drip tip or the tank to twist the carto further into the battery's connector.
