Quick Question On Orchid V4 Phillip Screw?

I got an authentic yep RDA off rbavaporstore.com. The screws that go into the posts are so long that, with 24 gauge in the post, the screw won't start to screw into place. I got 28ga to fit and I can screw them down but 24 gauge doesn't work. Is there anything I can do to change this?

I was thinking I could sand the screws down or maybe drill the post holes bigger so that the kanthol has more room to be tightened down with the screws

Thanks for any help  

Has anyone tried to sand down their screws that screw into their RDA posts?
If I sand mine down, do you think i will be able to still screw it in or will the threads be messed up  

Just recently purchased a Orchid V4 and loving it so far.
Though the Orchid uses two coils.
Considering adding a Kayfun to my modest collection.
My understanding that the Kayfun uses a single coil.
That being said, does it still vape as good as a Orchid V4?
Im sure theirs members here who can give first hand info on these two?
May like to share pictures?
And builds, methinks 28g is best.
Though I may try some 24g.
Running 28g ten wraps, .9 ohms.
21watts seem to be my sweet spot.
Just wanted to pick your mind on these.

My buddy wanted me to show him how to wrap up some coils. Hes using a vamo v5 and he bought an orchid v3. He doesnt like harsh draws but rather a smooth, light, cool pull. So i decided to try that standard wire that comes in the orchid v3's package. Its that stock, hair thin wire that comes in the box with most of your typical RDA's RTA's, but i cant figure out the gauge dimension on it. Im trying to get him a whole roll of it so he can wrap his own. If you guys can help me out i would appreciate it. Thanks!  

Hey, i just wanted to say how helpful old threads are. I've been looking everywhere for grub screws for my Zeus X rta. 2 mins on here and found them in a 2 year old thread. Thanks ECF and members problem solved  

Why are there endless threads about them breaking. Centerpost spinning, shoddy millwork, peeling metals, bad screws, bad threads, janky 510's, bad rubber, broken insulators. The list is endless. I think the one thing everyone agrees on is that they are CHEAP.  

Last night I received my vaporDNA order:
1 - Doge X by Congrevape
1 - Mutation X V3 by Indulgence
1 - EHPro Pontus V1.5 Dripping Tank Atomizer

I was so excited!! When I ripped open the box I was stunned! The EHPro was sitting right on top in this elegant black box! Quite an impressive sight!!
The Mutation X V3 looks killer too! Nice box, slick looking in the see through window! Was a little disappointed that the Drip Tip that comes with it is PLASTIC. That was a bit disappointing. But this thing looks amazing!
The Doge X - I don't even have words for this thing!! Intimidating comes to mind! The chuff tip (which is NOT removable) on this guy is MASSIVE!!!! MASSIVE (yes I said it again!)!! It almost seems too much!! But very excited to build some coils for this guy and start blowing some clouds!!

It was late last night when I finally got to sit down with them. The only one I was able to clean and get put together was the EHPro Pontus V1.5. Taking it apart was a pain in the, well, in the you know what!! The pyrex glass wouldn't come off the bottom part and every time I would twist and/or pull on it, it felt like the glass was going to Shatter (but it didn't, eventually it popped off). Unfortunately, this dripping tank does NOT come with instructions. So dis-assembly was a little time consuming, trying to figure out which portion to remove and which screws to loose. But thank you YouTube for 1 helpful video.
Anyway, built some 1.6ohm coils out of 28ga Kanthal, was shooting for 0.8ohm final resistance at my atty. Let me tell you, the screws on this thing Do NOT want to HOLD down wire. One constantly backs out and the other just Breaks the Kanthal. And I am not even screwing them down that Hard or "forceful". So after getting the wires in and screws down and wicked, I fired it up but the Atty reads 0.9ohm then JUMPS up to 1.4ohm, then down to 1.0ohm then up to 1.2ohm, then down to 0.9 then up. It won't hold steady! So I took off the top and screwed down that screw that keeps coming out, was fine for a pull or two, then started bouncing around again.
I contacted vaporDNA who I made the purchase from via email (no one seems to answer their customer service phone number) and I also contacted EHPro about it. So we'll see what happens.

VaporDNA, so far is pretty good. Shipped the items on the 12th and I got them on the 16th. So pretty fast shipping (it was FREE!). They even send a FREE bottle of juice along with any purchase! Its 60/40 (VG/PG) and they wrote that that is the Only ratio they'll send for the free juice! Which is fine by me, I don't tend to look "Gift Horses in the Mouth".

Any way, I would post pics but can't while I'm at work! Just wanted to update everybody!!


More updates to come as well, once I get my Doge X and Mutation V3 coiled and wicked!!!  

I recently bought the Forge v2 by MCV Philippines and really love it. It's the copper version and looks great on my Kingpin. I also bought the MCV Philippines Elite drip tip to go on it. It's actually 2 tips in one(a copper and brass that can be stacked). Anyway, it won't fit on my Forge 2 because the post screws are too tall. The tip is a wide bore, and the 510 adapter that came with the RDA is shorter and doesn't make contact with the screws.

When I take the PH screws out, the Elite drip tip fits fine. I figured I would just add some of my extra Allen Hex grub screws(which I put on all my RDAs if possible), but the screws in the MCV Philippines RDAs are one size smaller than most RDA post screws. I believe they are size 3 (#46 / 3-56). I'm guessing they are Fine coarse.

Does anyone know a site that sells screws like this? I've tried searching Google, but didn't really find anything relevant.


Thanks  

All of the sudden I wake up today and notice my 510 threading on my sigelei 50w box mod is jacked up. I cleaned the threads on my subtank mini and on my sigelei mod. I then tried screwing it onto my mod and now no matter what I try , there's a gap between the top of the mod and the bottom of the subtank (it's not screwing down all the way and has about a 3mm gap, hence now it won't fire...

I screwed my subtank onto my ileaf 30w and screws in flawlessly, so it's the sigelei threads ...

but I did pay a lot for my sigelei and prefer its hits , I dunno, I usually Vape about 16W on my sigelei And not sure how that translates over to what wattage I should run the eleaf at ?

Also, I just noticed that my spare RDAs will still screw onto my sigelei well..I'm so confused what's up !!!!  

Hi All, Can anyone help me with finding the size of the deck screws for mounting the coil? I want to replace them with grub screws but have no idea what size to purchase. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
