    You've got connectivity problem, hon. Happens all the time with those things--you're not doing anything wrong. Unless you have a GS tank (3ml, 22mm diameter--this one comes with temp. control coils, blue o-rings)--those won't work on iStick 30.

    First of all, whatever you do, don't try to over tighten your tank. Resist the urge to screw it onto your iStick too tight--this will only push the pin even deeper in, so just don't do it.

    I have an airflow control adapter on my iStick 20 and it works great--improves connectivity and protects the threads. I suggest you get one.

    Tank Airflow Controller | Madvapes

    And while you're shopping at MadVapes, grab a few of those:

    Circuit Board Spacer | Madvapes

    Every time you have a connectivity problem, just drop one of those babies into the 510 well of your mod and you're golden! Promise!

    Good luck!

    And good morning, Snails. :)

    Thanks, Kat. I think that's just what I need. Not sure what or how the airflow controller would work. Maybe someone here can explain... Will order several of the spacers!! Thanks again...:)

    Good morning

    How often will Spark have the injections, Tibs? No side effects is good.

    Katmar, sometimes you can gently pull the center of the connector of the tank down slightly, Just a fraction of an inch can be enough to make it connect. I use a dental tool to grab in the center hole and pull a teensy bit.

    Stay warm Fran

    waving at Katya :)

    morning, ces! ;)

    they are estimating 4 to 8 weekly treatments for that big tumor .....
    felt a little better yesterday when i got to talk to the oncology doctor - she just had finished treatment on a 200 g hedgehog! naturally, so far they have used the bleomycin just for cancerous growths. fingers crossed it'll work on xanthomas - there we only have the research i found from 2004 where it was used on eyelid xanthomas with excellent results

    :ohmy: unless they changed the gs tank comes with the NICKEL coil installed. your 30watt SHOULD NOT/ CANNOT fire that coil!
    you can check - if the coil has a BLUE ring around the base get it out of there in a hurry!!!!!!!!!!! those coils are meant for tc mods!

    All the way back to "Part 2" for this:
    Snails - Response on Threads

    Exact same thing yesterday... started car to warm up and brush off...
    "windshield fluid" light came on... pulled inside latch to pop the hood...
    and felt something give. :(

    Now the hood will only latch in the intermediate "catch" position, not all
    the way down. A little more than two years from the other time. ^^
    Appointment for Friday morning, but I need to drive the car in the
    meantime. It's probably safe as it is, but will bungee/rope it just to be
    sure. I'm THINKING I will not pay for this repair... and will argue the point.
