The threads on the airflow ring and chamber top of my gunmetal shift tank are really really stiff. Any suggestions? I've tried vg. The top cap and base work just fine.

The threads on the airflow ring and chamber top of my gunmetal shift tank are really really stiff. Any suggestions? I've tried vg. The top cap and base work just fine.

Perhaps there is some tiny debris left over on the threads from during the manufacturing process?

Here's what I would try:

1) Use some white vinegar and warm water on a microfiber cloth and give the threads a good cleaning. Like muscles deep into it kind of cleaning! LOL

2) Try using a non-metallic abrasive pad (like a Scotch-Brite pad). I've seen that suggested (with good results) for other RBA threads (and for other kinds of non-vaping stainless steel threads). Then clean the threads afterwards.

If those fail, then perhaps something was not exactly up-to-snuff when your Shift tank was manufactured (tolerances?).

Another option....... If you have more than one Shift tank (lot's of freakin' LOLz, yes SMT, Ange more than likely has a few) try swapping AF rings and chamber tops between tanks. Who knows, might just work.

Good luck

Thank you! I only have four.

Good morning shiny people. It’s been three weeks since I was given the tracking number from Sourcemore for the replacement order that was shipped wrong and received in December. I emailed them since the tracking hasn’t updated and was given an excuse that there was a problem with customs declaration. I’m so tired of dealing with this.

I got the same excuses, but I could tell that it wasn't customs, at least one the US side. Once my order hit stateside, it progressed at the usual speed. It just took forever to hit stateside.

It’s always one excuse or another. I’m done ordering from them until I hear some more positive shipping stories. I placed an order today with ecigmafia for a couple of the innokin foretex kits and spare pods. I reviewed it and really liked it. I’m still using the review sample but decided it’s good enough that I want more.

Luna has developed a fixation with trying to ping off buttons, especially on my shirt cuffs. Never a dull moment with her around.

Good afternoon, evening and morning Folks.

Luna has developed a fixation with trying to ping off buttons, especially on my shirt cuffs. Never a dull moment with her around.

When the box no longer satisfies....... ping off buttons. LOL
