Problems with smoketek dual coil using ego battery...help

[DEATHTOCIGS]

I just received a pack of 5 smoketek Dual Coil LR cartomizers from the vapingzone. I was excited to try and now I'm very dissappointed. When I screw them onto my ego battery I can't get any draw at all. I've tried loosening, but no good. They are firing but I can't pull out any vapor at all. Anyone else had this problem. Maybe they can't be used on an ego battery, I thought any 510 connection would work?

Found the problem, tried another from package and it worked good, comparing the 2 I found that the one that did not work was defective in that it had no air holes drilled into the collar under the threads. The one that worked had the holes. Wasted about 25 drops of juice, I'll be sure to check before filling another.

purchase a v2 shorty adapter... V2 510 Shorty Extension

Hmmm... I just had this same problem. Filled one last night and put it on my battery then... nothing. I have only tried one in the pack so far, though, and it looks like it has the holes you're talking about. Hopefully it's just a dud.

Apparently there is a problem with the emdcc. The battery center post is not long enough. You either have to pull it out, or raise the battery center post. The other solution, as previously mentioned, is the 510 shorty extension. I've also read about some people shaving, milling, sanding, or cutting a small amount off the battery end of the carto.

This seems to be a problem with the dual coils. Just take a paper clip and pull the center pin out just a hair on the carto. I use a shorty 510 adapter and ground it down a little to assure trouble free when using these duals

It seems odd that so many cartos need some adjusting. Both my 808 and 510 setups need carto tweaking every once in awhile. As mentioned above, get a bad one maybe one out of 5. One out of a hundred I could understand, but jeez.

I got some of the new clear ones, and they seem to work OK without messing with them. Except for one thing: the cheap Smok Tech eGo batts. Still use the extension with those.
