Vamo thread problem with boge cartomizers and phiniac tank sealed or non sealed adapter?

[motherman]

I ordered two vamos. With the first the threads were machined so poorly that nothing would screw on. I got a replacement and the second still isnt quite right, but with enough force I can get my cartos screwed in all the way.

I just received platnium cartos from ikenvape and they wont catch the threads at all. I assume I should get an adapater hopefully that catches and I can use those threads.

For a tank carto set up should I use:

1. 510-510 short NON SEALED ElectronicStix.Com · Shorty 510 To 510

or

2. 510-510 shorty SEALED ElectronicStix.Com · Sealed Shorty 510 To 510

Thanks

For you, doesn't really matter. The non-sealed type has a hole that goes thru to the origin 510 while the sealed one does not. If a sealed one leaks, it leaks out the top, if the non-sealed one leaks, it leaks thru to the origin 510. Clear as mud? ;-)

Unsealed ones are necessary for auto mods and bottom feeders.

Ok great thank you. Is there any reason to get a sealed then? Will it change the draw if I didnt have an adapter? Also is one or the other more likely to push the center pin in and break the vamo?

Thanks!

Nope to all. If it were me, with a screw'd up thread mod... I'd 271 red Loctite the thing in and never take it out.
