The FD V3 Shorty 510 is the only 510 connector assembly (besides the Varitube shorty) that will replace the existing 510 in its entirety. It works & I have one working on my Black Waidea right now with no problems what so ever. Very stable connectivity & works great!
I just like the Single slotted look of the Original 510 and want to install just the FD V3 Shorty Center Pin Core from a FD V3 Shorty into the existing 510. I need to make a Bushing I cannot find to buy to mount it in there. I've made a bushing by heating up the 510 and threading the outer plastic of a papermate disposable pen into the lower threading of the original 510 & cutting it off to the height of a FD V3 Shorty 510. I need to thread the inside of the tube to a 510 thread to mount the core in there & I have a 510 Tap & Die Set on order from Amazon to thread the inside of the Bushing but it will not arrive until June as it is also coming from China. (Don't want to heat up the base of one of my attys to thread the inside of the tube) When it is completed I will reinstall it in place of the FD V3 Shorty 510 assembly I installed there.
If that fails the Insulator of the original 510 can be drilled and Tapped for the v3 shorty core. If that fails, there is always JB Weld.

It was US (E Bay) Silver Vapor Flask DNA 40 V3 Royal Hunter RDA in Stock 1 1CLONE w Temp Control | eBayYou could check to see if the 4 screws on the top plate are tight (T5 torx or 1.4 mm Allen) and the battery caps threads and the threads they screw into are clean. If you were to have to return it would it be China or US?
You are very well covered under the Ebay buyer protection program, contact the seller, they will about bend over backwards to take care of it for you.
I missed that, checking nowI saw earlier that fasttech has the Flasks back in stock (in new Arrivals yesterday I think) they are $56 and don't mention manufacture but they share a 4 slot 510 connector is silver.
Yeah,I paid a good price for it thinking it might be a little better quality!You are very well covered under the Ebay buyer protection program, contact the seller, they will about bend over backwards to take care of it for you.
BTW, pretty high price IMO
Looks to be a WaideaYeah,I paid a good price for it thinking it might be a little better quality!![]()
Yeah,I sent the seller a message,so hopefully,he will replace it. I guess it's,back to the O'L istick 50W!Looks to be a Waidea
Ebay buyer protection and fast delivery, that's worth something.
I missed that, checking now
Kind of looks like Infinite. Phillips screws and spring loaded 510
That's what I intend to do,as soon as I hear form the seller.If it doesn't work, perhaps you could send it back for replacement?
Be thankful it wasn't working! Now you can send it back and get your money back. For what you paid, you can own 2 of them for only a few dollars more!
the "proper ground" has improved it, it still gets silly sometimes requiring a battery pull1) your reasons for wanting to do it no longer apply since you have presumably already established a proper ground.
3) to disconnect batteries from board to deprive power your circuit would still need to have the capacity to allow maximum use amperage to the board while firing or it would overload.
4) perhaps it is time for another cup?

I think you misunderstand what I mean, not a switch in direct line with battery power (which of course would have to be at least 23 amps), but a microswitch cutting power to the logic area of the board (the part that is getting confused)
