Sidesho Compatibility Question

[pdssoft]

I saw this displayed a few times now, including the "Apples to Apples" thread; a Sidesho atty on an L88B battery. I have tried this but the atty won't fire. Does anyone know if this SHOULD work? Am I doing something wrong?

I had some specially made to work with my atomizers like 6 months ago, I just never wanted to sell them after testing them.

The L88's do work for some people, and some they don't. It is a contact issue as the atomizers are not designed the same.

Sometimes the contact can get push down in either the L88 battery, or in the Sidesho atty from over tightening. You can put a paperclip in the sidesho atty hole a gently lift it up a tiny bit, that little amount can be just enough to make the contact it needs.

You can also lift up the center contact in the battery a bit with tweezers as well if you really want it to work.

Thanks for the update, I thought at first the collar on the Sidesho atty had something to do with it but later realized, probably not. I only ask because I have a lot of L88B batteries and would prefer to use them with the Sidesho Atty & Cart because it holds SO much more juice.

I also have some old 510 batteries that the Sidesho screws into, but again, won't fire... I'll give the contact adjustment a try as you suggest. Thanks.
