Positive Post on my Z-atty Pro isn't secure

[AdamV8per]

It hasn't even been a week since I received my z-atty pro and my positive post is popping up. Last night I thought I had it fixed when I pushed it down and twisted it in place. This morning I went to take a toke and noticed the vapor wasn't right, so I checked under the cap and low and behold, the positive post popped up AGAIN and created a hot spot with the top coil.

I've noticed complaints about the same exact thing on this forum. Is it actually glue that holds this into place? That is totally unacceptable considering what this item costs. Ridiculous.

They were supposed to be press fit now. I used Loc-Tite super glue to secure mine and it has held since Jan. I do agree that it should be assembled better for the price.

Amen. I love my ZAP (using it right now) & I haven't had this problem YET, but this could explain why ProVape has had em available for 5 days or so since the last release, when they used to sell out in minutes.

I think the fact that there are good, budget friendly devices has more effect than the few of us that have had to glue our posts back in. It wasn't long ago that we didn't have viable alternatives like the AGA and RSST. It is also possible that Zen has dramatically increased production in the last few months. I also cant help but wonder if Pro-Rings have an effect, you can now have that clean hybrid look for ~$50 rather than $150.

I think the previous lines of z-atty-pros were sold in increments as a marketing strategy. I think the April 3rd line is still available probably because of either two reasons. It didn't sell as well or they are selling as much as they can before a new z-atty-pro 2 version comes out.

All I know is my aga t-2 is vaping like a champ right now. Twenty-five measly bucks. If there is a z-atty pro 2 in the works, the changes better be revolutionary to justify $150.

I don't believe they were limiting availability as part of a strategy. That would be a foolish plan when they were able to sell out in minutes. They could have sold eight times as many for the same price in under a hour. I honestly believe it was production limits.

There are several more top-end RBAs available these days too aren't there? That could be part of it as well.
