I feel like a dumb a@! guess i wont be pulling my other one apart anytime soon. when i got it The guy i said i could rebuild it but i have no idea how and with what..... please help me..

Lol, you probably broke your coil. That's the part that heats up and vapes our juice. Save it you may start rewrapping coils someday, but you'll need a new coil for now. YouTube is your friend for fixing it

 

[mommafish]

thanks Ill have a look

 

[JBL-37]

You will need some wire and wick to fix it. The guy that sold it to you will probably have what you need if he told you it was rebuildable. You will understand when you watch some vids. It looks complicated at first but is much easier than it appears.

 

[lilcrooked]

Sometimes when people say rebuildable they mean you can replace the coil assembly with pre-assembled replacement coils. Do a google image search for "clearomizer types" and find something that looks similar. Post what you think it looks most similar to and maybe some folks here can help you find some specific info on replacement coils or if it is a throw away situation.

If the part with the wick screws off, you order a replacement head............and a few spare clearos for future booboo's

ce4 toss
ce5/6 replace heads
Kanger/Vivi replace heads

 

[mommafish]

this is what it looks like

Oh, please don't feel like a dumb a**! You're not! It happens to all of us at one time or another (some more than once! Lol!). I ended up with lapfulls of juice! If you can fix it then do so, maybe someone other than myself can help you with that! Just wanted to let you know that you're not a dumb a**. That's all. Good luck!

 

[JBL-37]

You can rebuild the coil in those, much cheaper than buying the pre wrapped screw in coil... I have rebuilt a kanger pro tank, t3, evod and vivi nova and only had to buy wire and wick. If your not that handy then buy the coil.

At least you cannot break it any more. OK maybe you can, but good advice given, and you have one to learn on. I had to take a pert a good one the first time.

OK, that was because I wanted to tinker with the darn thing after I had seen a few videos.

 

[mommafish]

Thank u very much?

It's all part of the learning process, and as long as we learn it's fine.

You can just buy replacement coils for them. Pretty cheap, and easier then tracking down wick, resistance wire, and Utube instructional videos

As mentioned, save them for spare parts.

You can play with this Vivi tank 2.0 Smok

 

[vapalicious1100]

By the looks of the pic, you can change out the atomizer head. You should be able to buy these from the same place as you got the clearomizer. Just unscrew the entire atomizer head, trash it, and screw in another one. Leave it to soak in some juice for about 5-10 minutes to let the wick soak up nicely, then vape away. And don't worry, we all do stuff like that from time to time

Problem solved

ok messed around with it more and the top head does screw off but..... the guy doesnt sell replacement heads. come on u sell one piece saying u can rebuild it but dont sell the repacement heads...
another ??? thay have a ZMAX (dont know if they are any namebrand or if its a knock off) but it is 89.00 the battery is 10.00 and a charger is 8.00 then u have to buy the tank for liquid is this a good deal? or can i find it better online? I would like to upgrade but dont know if this is too big of a jump for being so new to the craft lol I like the idea that all u have to do is charge a battery and not the whole thing so i could just get two batterys and be set for a time. again thanks for the help!!

OK looked a videos of the z max and wow thats a lot of stuff to know..I think its to fancy for me being new. so what should i try I want to be able to keep the vape the same from begining to end of battery life but not to complicated. I think i would burn up a lot of tanks on the z max just learning how to use it . PPasardo went through 4 and hes a pro.

Replacement Head Coils ...You might be able to find cheaper ones but I thought I should share a link to the actual product. The one in the picture you posted is a Vision 2.0. There are other ones just like it called the Thor and CE5 I believe. The coils on the page I linked will work for any of those types.
Why does my clearomizer gurgle and leak? This link has a very basic guide with pictures that explains how clearomizers work.
Also, what type of pv are you using? Depending on that some folks here might have suggestions for things that have worked well for them. I personally prefer Evod and T2 clearomizers (when I use clearos) but that is a matter of taste. Remember the forum search function as well. Good info ready to be had as there are usually a ton of folks who have gone through the same issues.

You might want to look at a Vision Spinner. They, like the Ego Twist, are variable voltage non-replaceable batteries. Plug into the charger when needed - so of course, you really need 2. (You do, anyway, of whatever battery or type you get. Backups are important!)

Basically, you just spin a dial at the bottom of the battery to adjust the voltage sent to the coil. That affects the heating, and the vape. They are, ime, pretty consistent from full to dead. Not at all complicated. Put your device with juice on top, set the volts low and vape. Not right? Turn the voltage up a little and try again. Repeat until satisfied

The Zmax and it's breed add a lot of features that you may not be ready for yet, but if you still think about going that way, check around online for the Vamo. You'd also need to get batteries and a charger with that, but it usually around $50.
