WHo sent me the cartomizer e2 I believe ?

[BuzzKill]

Ok who sent it , I dont recognize the name ? I think it said Joker on it ? ( I ripped up the paper work DUH ! )

 

[BuzzKill]

Ok the threads on this thing are WRONG ! you will strip your 510 top cap using these !~~!!!

 

[ejoker]

that would be me.

 

[BuzzKill]

Got it , I thought so ! , have you had thread problems ? I used a 901 - 510 adapter and it was ok but using a 510 Notcigs cap the threads were jamming up ?
these are the only 510 style atty I have had problems with !

[ejoker]

yup, works fine on your adapters since they have the thinner, taller center post. on your 510 caps, that center screw is too wide and short to make contact, and since the pos contact of the carto is recessed its a no-go on the 510 buzz.

 

[BuzzKill]

I couldnt even thread this one in more than 1 1/2 turns it jams up

Exact same problem I had my first time trying it, wheres the 510 to 510 adapter when you need it

 

[BuzzKill]

Ya theres some thread issue with the e2 apparently ! or mine are just a little tight BUT no other 510 style attys or cartoz have this problem so I am pretty sure it is just the e2 at this point.

 

[VPDownunder]

Yeah, jams up on the buzz for me too, they're fine on the Ego but.

i tried to make one, but my machining skills are right up there with my ability to use the shift key appropriately ...

 

[BuzzKill]

Well that teaches me to make threads to standard specifications !!!!

I have a toothpick under my Caps lock key !

 

[kwcharlie]

toothpick under the cap lock, sounds better than shift-F3 after you done it. But then how could i scream at someone

I figured just taking a dead atty connector and a 510 battery connector but cant figure out how im going to solder that middle post without using wire.

 

[ejoker]

meh, i have both 510 and 901 caps, so i'll use the adapter for the 2e until something better comes along

 

[WitchWay]

They don't work on quite a few things with 510 connections. It is definitely a problem with the E2 threads. Hopefully this is one of the things they are fixing.

Charlie, did you get your E2s?

 

[BuzzKill]

I read that they know the issues and are fixing it

 

[VPDownunder]

I'm just using a 510-801 and an 801-510 adapters stacked atm to use these on my 510 cap

One of mine has a ....... thread. It would only work with two of my 510 batteries. To get it to screw down further, I ground a crude taper on the end of the thread. Now it works with all batteries, but with only one of my adapters. Also, the air holes are in the wrong position, causing a tight draw in some situations. Thankfully, the rest of my E2's have better threads.

Out on a barge rig starting up with a new SCR system in the middle of the swamps near Holly Beach LA WW so don’t know if it got there. Looking like only a shallow water rig like this is going to chance on starting a new job in the GoM now, should have a lot of work setting up all the rigs that are moving out of USA waters overseas soon. They just got net setup so I can check if your package came, and thanks.

 

[BuzzKill]

So the rigs are moving out of the Gulf ?
Wow big screw up on BP's part and the USA.Gov
