stuck e cig battery

[lizard42]

I have a lizard juice e cig battery and I've seemed too have screwed it on too tightly, I've tried pliers and everything and I still can't get the atomizer off of the battery. any suggestions on what too do? I'd soak it in hot water but I'm not too sure if I can get the battery wet

Hi and welcome to ECF

Definitely do not soak in water unless you want to destroy your battery. Electronics+water=bad (also it would do nothing to help unscrew the tank). If you have a rubber jar opener, rubber glove or if nothing else a wad of saran wrap - take it and wrap it around your atomizer/tank/whatever the heck is stuck on top and then use pliers you may have some luck.

In the future - these should only be *just* tight enough to stay together. You can compress your firing pin amongst other issues when you put them together this tightly. Put on the atomizer and turn until its *just* snug and STOP. You will be glad about later

CreepyLady (lol) is correct. Don't over-tighten. I personally don't even fully-tighten --- creates for more air flow.

If I was having this issue with an eGo model (which from looking, the Lizard is) - I would trash it and get a new one considering the low cost.
