Short in coils when screwed down was originally linked to coil wire ends poking out.(To long) and contacting the ground portion of the head or the 510 post. might want to take a look.

I built a few coils last week. Perfect for me on the meter. When I put them in the SVD to check they were all shorted. Dangit... So I put them off to the side puzzled. A couple days later I went to rebuild them.. again. A wire poked me a bit when I picked them up. I trimmed the excess and they were perfect.

Very good advice. It stumped me and made me build a few I didn't have to.

Fasttech is calling theirs the RG500. Here is the version I got BUT I got mine from HealthCabin for $13.99.

Fasttech $10.44 RG500 Bottom Coil Glassomizer (5.0mL) - bronze shield / 1.8ohm / 2.2ohm

I got mine from HeathCabin and they came in boxes called HyperTanks for $13.99

I wish Fasttech had them a bit sooner and I'd have saved a few dollars XD

BTW - they are FANTASTIC!!!

Can someone tell me what is going on with my order? It looks like it is in a loop. Obviously ISC San Francisco (Customs) is not in San Francisco. 26 days since "Acceptance" and still in China.

Come on....you know you want one! I mean who hasn't entertained the idea of fishing in the living room aquarium?! Now if I could just find guppy gum sized hooks! LOL

I don't know how the kids will take to me fishing for "tucker" though :D

I'm actually thinking about getting some of these for my bug-out supplies.... go ahead, laugh! ...they are plenty big enough for Indiana fish

I already pushed the button on this. I am going to give them out to my son in laws this christmas. :) I am going to 'test drive' one myself too lol! They look like they may be good for native trout. i intend to find out! If nothing else, they will have the 'cool factor' sitting on my desk!

Ah, I see, I missed the first one. Not a clue why, but it looks like it either was returned from SF or was never sent out on the 5th

"The San Francisco ISC employs more than 450 workers and processes more than 150 million pieces of mail each year."

Then a little google maps help and presto! :)
