I have a vamo v3 and have been using an evod tank. I recently purchased a kanger pro tank II as an upgrade for my setup. After a few days the threading on the inside of my vamo head seems to have stripped. I probably cross threaded it on accident but it always seemed flimsy compared to using the threads on the out side of the connector (forgive me for not knowing the terminology here). So my question is this: is there a glass tank bottom feeder that has roughly the same overall diameter as an 18650 type pv that threads on the outside of the head instead of the inside? The pro tank II looks so much better on my vamo than the evods do. What about the ego to 510 adapter I've seen on fasttech? Could this be a solution to use the inside threads without fear of destroying the next mod I get?

An eGo to 510 adapter will work.
Caveat: Not all eGo to 510 adapters are the same. I have a few and have to see which one will work the best. I don't have a Fasttech one so I don't know if it will work with a Vamo and PT2.

are you sure it isn't a 510 to ego adaptor?
I have been searching for an ego to 510 and so far no one makes one - am currently trying to figure out how to make a positive post extender to use an old evod base (has ego threading and the atty threading is 510)

Is 510 the outside threads or the inside threads?

Seems to be becoming a common problem anymore.
Innokin makes an adapter set, but I can't seem to find it in the US. Electronic Cigarettes - VR-1 (eGo Type) - Innokin Universal 510 Adapter Ring Set

The 510 is the inside threads, the ones that seem to strip the most. The EGO threads are the ones on the outside.
Yeah - that adapter goes the wrong way!!
And several people have searched and none of us can locate what you need - something to adapt the Protank's male 510 thread (that's the little one) to be a female EGO thread (that's the big one) which is what you need.
People have tried to use an "airflow adapter" - leaving in ON the VAMO to keep from further damaging the threads, then putting all devices, like the ProTank, on top of that. I bought one though, and it didn't really work for me - it was more like an airflow "on or off" contraption, with no real benefit.
I don't know of any good larger "clearomizers" or "glassomizers" that are EGO threaded...

That's interesting - and I never saw it before - BUT, none of those 3 adapters change the 510female to an EGOmail, which is what you need!
Looking again, you are right! It's getting date in the lay, sorry about that! But most people have solved it with an EGO to EGO adapter, or buying a tap and cleaning up the threads, just don't take anything off and on too often afterwards!
Actually - you know what's crazy, but I'm gonna try it, because - well crazy is just another way of saying "genius"?
While it doesn't LOOK it, the thread of the BASE OF A PROTANK (the thead into the TANK) is the same as the thread of the base of a Protank MINI. Which is - guess what? EGO.
So that would work - put a ProTank Mini base on a ProTank.
It'd look like this:
I can't fill it right now - i pulled the base of a full mini to take the pic!
What I don't know is if the ProTank will be sticking up in the air kinda goofy, or close enough to look good. I figure the EGO threading is more "stable" from the wider diameter, and a slight gap would be OK...
Out of stock, but if it works, miniprotank bases are here for $3

Nice fix! But the root of the problem remains, they used soft metal making the threads and even using the wider threads there is a good chance the outer threads will get striped as well. That is why the ego to ego fix is liked so much. Put the adapter on and leave it alone!
No, they do make ego to ego adapters, but as has been said, they are not all created equal! You need to go to a shop and try it before you buy it to make sure it fits and functions on your device.

HAHAHAHAH GENIUS!!!!! tried it and it works great!!!! I get to keep using one of my vamos with a real tank!!! nanner nanner nanner!!!!
uhum I mean, excellent idea and fix Train2
oh, and evod bases do not work as they are too short

Vaporalley.com has the protank mini bases for $2.19.
They have 30 in stock at the present time.
They are listed under the Kanger tanks.
