with the aro 2 atached to your mvp, check the resistance - does it say 0.0(indicating a short), does it read a number, or does it just read "non"?


if it reads "non" your tank is not making contact with the battery, as some one mentioned try prying the pin on the tank out SLIGHTLY, if not possble attempt to SLIGHTLY pull the pin on the mvp battery.

crashhat69 - the evod 2 and aro are not "working" because they arent making a connection with the battery.


if i can suggest it again - be careful doing so - try prying the pin up SLIGHTLY on the MVP.


take note - once the pin is up enough to make connection - putting your other tanks that DID work before hand on the battery, will push the pin back down.



i understand the issue completely - as i used to own a mvp and that was its one "weak point", the center pin length between many of my atomizers.


when using new equiptment - even old equiptment - you dont have to "screw your tank ALL THE WAY DOWN" , just enough that it creates contact with the battery. - trying to screw things down "all the way" is what causes these issues in the first place, and after a "long period" of the pin being squished on the oring - it naturaly just wants to stay squished.

I think I answered you last time when you told me to pull the pin on the battery up and I told you I tried and it wouldnt go up any farther. Its brand new so the pin shouldnt be squished down at all right? why would the evod 1 work, but not the evod 2 or the aro pyrex 2? the coil heads are very similar

when you check the resistance using the mvp, it gives away the problem - "NON" means the tank isnt making contact - THAT is the issue. weather it be the pin on the mvp squished, or on the tanks - the pins dont make contact.


when pulling the pin up on the mvp, it may seem like its not budging or moving any - hence why i said becarefull. there is a possibility of pulling the pin completely out, which can damage the battery if by accident you snap the wire thats soldered onto the pin.

I tried pulling the pin up on the itaste again and my aro 2 works now. Thanks!. Why would the pin be too low if t's brand new though?

Remove the base from the tank
Verify that the atomizer head (coil) is attached securely.
Install just the base assembly on to the MVP
Check the atomizer resistance. It should read 1 to 3 ohms.
If so, reinstall the top portion of the tank and vape on
If not, remove the base assembly and using just your fingernails raise the center pin. No more than a fingernail thickness should be sufficient.
