ok, having 510 issues here.

[mrjaguar]

so I just got a 510 cap for my trusty old buzz, and I popped a dual coil carto on it, and the draw is VERY tight, too tight to use, so I moved the center screw up a bit, and it helped, but not enough. I tried a atty on it, and the draw was fine. I put a different carto on it, and it was a tight draw. I checked the bottoms of the cartos and atty, the atty has a flat bottom, the cartos have like a little indent in the bottom, with a slot cut across the inner part of the carto. does anyone know of a good way to fix this? or did I just miss the thread where it was talked about?

thanks
pat

Pat there is SO MUCH variation now a days it is hard to tell LOL ! who makes them ?

 

[mrjaguar]

ok, the dual coil is a smoktech, and I *think* the carto is a boge, but I'm not sure, and the atty is a modern vapor. I'm gonna try a carto I KNOW is boge.

edit: I put a boge carto , and the draw is decent, but all I have are LR catos. and while I know I can turn my buzz down, I'm lazy and prefer it where it is.

 

[BuzzKill]

Well the only other thing I can think of to try is a slotted top screw this will have a different top profile and may work ?
M2x.4 size

 

[mrjaguar]

has anyone used a different screw as the centerpost? like a flathead or something?

 

[mrjaguar]

ahh.. we posted at ab out the same time, I'll have to go to the hardware store and see what I can find. Thanks Mike.

I have a flathead screw in my old buzz for the same reason. The alternative is a extension adapter.

Go to an OLD school hardware store the big guys do not carry the small metric screws , at least around here they dont.

 

[mrjaguar]

Thanks ruppy, appreciate it, I'll have to go look around. where did you find your screw at?

 

[mrjaguar]

[BuzzKill]

Ive done some for myself before I killed my TP2 and ended up with WP7 which sucks! I havent done a public one for 4-5 months. Going to buy a android in about a month when my contract ends. Might break down and do a few then.

I miss my TP2

I got some emails from some guys on XDA the other day wanting me to help on some type of project but I havent looked into what yet.

TP2 was a nice phone. I went from an HTC Touch to Droid 1 and have been extremely happy. Just waiting on the Bionic now, and hoping Moto starts unlocking the bootloader again.

WTH are you guys talking about ?? I know it has to do with phones but ?? ( mine is an old beast of a ph. so )

 

[mrjaguar]

and just think, I'm still using my G1 at 1.6, but all I use it for is pretty much just a phone, even tho it is a Dev G1.
