Stay away from the cheap ones they can have issues


Tony

I haven’t had any issues so far with either of my two Poldiac top caps and cheap Clearos.

I thought that I’d share my experiences so far, just in case some people out there are hesitant to buy the Poldiac, because they think it won’t work with their attachments.

As for the threading, I did receive some parts with a lot of corrosion on the threads, so they were semi-seized/rough. But, after cleaning them with alcohol swabs and applying a bit of Noalox afterwards, they became really smooth. One bottom cap became almost too smooth, if that’s possible.

I do not, however, recommend using Noalox on the 510 threads, if you’re using attachments that draw air from the 510 connection. I can’t imagine that Noalox fumes would taste very good and it’s probably not the healthiest thing to do either.

If you want to lubricate the 510 threads, I’d suggest using something like Vaseline. But not too much, since Vaseline isn’t really conductive, so that could negatively impact the conductivity of the Poldiac. Personally, I don’t lubricate the 510 threads; I just clean the 510 threads with rubbing alcohol and I haven’t had any issues so far.

Hey all,
Haven't checked in here on the fan thread in a bit. Just dropping off a photo. My favorite Poldiac setup:

Hope Murdock doesn't mind, 'cause damn it's pretty!

He posted on his FB page showing how, step by step, he did on a nemisis. He's got it figured out.

Now I have to get some brass clothes!

If I need to delete it, I can. Or the mod can remove if requested.
Thanks for the pics, looks awesome. Im gonna try it, but on the Bagga first, then UMA clothes.
