Zenesis Atomisers Adjustable Positive Pin

[Matt M]

I believe that zen's genesis atomisers/PV's have a spring loaded centrepin for the positive connection. Can someone explain/sketch how it works for me? I'm designing my own hybrid with a few modifications. Maybe there's a YouTube review where you can see it in action?

normally you would attach the wire to the center pin and screw it until it's firm so it makes good solid contact...
the spring-loaded is just the same without the need to screw it in, i.e. you wrap your coil and place the end in the spring and release it, the spring then makes solid contact by itself.
hope that's clear enough

Sorry, I meant the positive battery connector post that presses on the positive end of the battery inside the battery tube.

In that case the concept is still somewhat the same...
If you say that the PV has the spring loaded pin, then that just means that the pin in the center of the 501 threading for example has some give to it so if you would put a tank like the vivi it squashes the pin in the PV and you thread your tank as much or as little as you want and it still makes contact. This is useful to have so you can put any other tank or genesis or whatever and if they a have a shorter positive post your PV compensates and makes the connection.

If you mean inside the tube then again the same concept...
You could use the batteries that the manufactures offers and if you someday buy some in another website or shop and they happen to be 1/4" shorter than the recommended ones (as I've learn that protected vs. unprotected length varies, also brand and such), they should still work because again the spring touch so it makes contact.
Again hope that come through as clear as I think it.

Cool, thanks
