RM2 Center post adjustment?

[fright88]

Hello I just picked up a RM2 from the classifieds and am having a slight issue. The mod I bought it for does not have an adjustable center post and I can't get the atty to make connection. It works if I put it on another mod with adjustable post but looking at the bottom of the connector the center pin doesn't really stick out. So I am wondering if these posts are adjustable at all? Not sure how the connections are made inside the atty so I don't want to do pulling on the post and ruin it. Thanks for any help.

If you are trying to run it on a RSM the RM2 may not be screwed down sufficiently due to the RSM catch cup diameter. I have seen the RM2 sanded slightly on the brass under the deck for a proper fit on a RSM

For your reference here's the 'how to' info for a full disassembly. => http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...2-full-atomizer-itself-rebuild-pic-heavy.html

Someone else will have to answer as to whether you can fiddle with the center post without damaging it.

Sounds like your RM2 has the center pin without a slot for adjustment/disassembly
I have one of those too
Had problems adjusting and disassembling this slotless pin and posted about it (#51)

That may just work it is sitting right on the top of the catch cup.

Thanks everyone for the replies. Hopefully this will get me running

Yes you can adjust it. You need to wedge something in the hole a rat tail file or a triangle file have worked for me

I am thinking you are right. After getting it working on the mod the pin is sticking out way farther then it should be. I will have to sand down the catch cup a mm or 2 to get this thing just right.

Thanks to both of you for the advice. I was able to adjust the pin out a bit with some tweezers I kinda rammed in there. It is now working on my Cutlass like a charm. Great little atty although I might have to drill out the air hole a bit to get the draw I like. Looks really good IMHO with a tugboat clone driptip as well.

Many find 1/16 is a good size and then there are those go even bigger.

Not to worry. If you botch it you can buy a replacement cap from Rob. You can also purchase the entire Triangle atty - in chrome - this is based on from Empire mods. It won't be a bottom feeder but it's a good source for spare parts.

Cool thanks for the info. I opened it a bit today and like it so far. I have no idea what size it is though lol.
