So on one of my Ego batteries, the connection post on the battery is too far down and my atties have to be scrwed down quite tight to touch it. Hell my tank atties don't even reach it. I've wiggled it up and it works fine, but eventually gets pushed back down again.
Anyways I decided I'd melt some solder and put a single drop on the post to raise up the connection. Problem is that now all my atties short out because the solder bridges the gap between the center connection on the atty and the threads.
Not sure what to do. I could try wicking away the solder I guess, but this still doesn't solve my initial problem. Only thing I think of is attaching a small piece of metal that won't bridge the connection. Any ideas?
To be clear, it doesn't short when there's no atty. I did a pretty clean job of it and there's no solder anywhere except on the post.
