Protank leak fix

[jram909]

So this is my second week vaping and I just got my vamo v3 and protank in the mail. After messing with the replacement head I noticed e-juice on my battery post. I tried fixing it and for some reason when I tightened the head all the way into the base I had absolutely no air flow. I ended leaving the replacement head pretty loose and just got leaking. My final fix was to replace the stock o-ring on the head. The one that is on the threads that screw into the base. It is a little bigger than stock. This makes it so you can't screw the head in more than about 1 turn. The seal is good though. This also enables me to screw the base down completely into the vamo. You can check clearance by putting the base of the tank onto the vamo then putting the head in so you know how how far you can go down without pushing your positive battery pin down. Once you got that just take it off the vamo/mod and put it onto the tank as usual.This should create a good seal between the head and the base as well as the seal between the head and the airflow tube that goes into the mouthpiece.

Try not tightening down on the Vamo so tight.
A) always snug to contact only
b) don't want to crush the Vamo center pin and ruin the Vamo grommet.
(See Vamo sub-forum)
c) always check Air Flow Off the device. this will tell you immediately if it is the Tank or if Air is being cut off.


There should be no reason to do everything you are doing to the Tank.

Yea I've been reading a lot about the base threads breaking off. Kinda makes me nervous. Sounds like these mods and tanks always need a little tinkering. Thanks for the advise!

Yes, some pieces end up delicate by design through necessity. Just the nature or the beast.
