UD IGO-W not Firing because of short Positive Post

[ikhmaifosho]

I just received my IGO-W and started my first build. I check the Ohms and it was perfectly under 1.0 ohms.. once I connect it to my itaste MVP it doesn't fire at all . As you can tell in the photo the center positive post is not long enough to get in contact with my MVP. Is there a way to push down the positive post to get in contact with it ?? I notice with my other rda the center post sticks out just a tad but enough for contact.

You can try to pull the post down with a small screwdriver or pull the post up on your MVP.if that doesn't work or you aren't comfortable doing that you can drop a spacer in your connector, the outside of the spacer is an insulator so no chance of shorts.

You can CAREFULLY tap out the center post...just put a small Phillips driver over the center post screw and GENTLY tap the post down...it only needs to protrude ~1/16".....I've found this problem with a couple of my IGO-L's....Good Luck!
RE: D.'s post....I wouldn't try to RAISE the center pin of the MVP....UNLESS you're having trouble with ALL your toppers not contacting properly....

If the previous replies did not work you'll probably have to add another wrap or two. Btw how do I post my own thread on this darn forum?

I had the same problem with mine I use a airflow controller and it works perfect. Won't work without it on my IGO L either.

I tap the center post gently down and Wa-La! Let there be light! Thank you all for your inputs, I'm sure this thread will come in handy for the next frustrated IGO-W owner
