OK so I have a Vaporesso Veco Solo Kit and my tank is stuck. I've tried rubber gloves, rubber and pliers, lock pliers and anything else you can think of. The tank won't budge. I need to change my coil but how can I get this damn tank off.
Not the best picture but you can see the tank.
UPDATE: After continuous trying with multiple methods, my glass has decided to give up and is now in 4 pieces so I need either a new glass or new vape entirely.
Hi,
Threads are going to stick, it's a fact of life. Here's a fix that works.
You'll need 1) thin rubberized gloves 2) two pairs of pliers (with curved jaws, not straight) and 3) 220 grit sandpaper for metal
The steps are;
1) buy a pair of small-sized mechanic or garden gloves. The ones with rubber over fabric
2) cut off one inch of the finger tips (off the gloves, not your fingers)
3) slide the tips over the jaws of your pliers
4) put the pliers on either side and twist; righty-tighty, lefty-loosey (unless you have backward threads, usually not)
A couple things I found that improve it even more;
1) used sandpaper to smooth the sharp ridges on the pliers; wrap the sandpaper around a pencil till it fits the curvature of the ridges, I put the pencil in a drill and made quick work of it. They won't cut through the gloves so easily.
2) gently sand the tops of the threads on your tank, rough areas here sometimes cause the sticking. Don't sand much, just till they feel smooth.
it works, I Gar-on-tee it.

Hi guys have had the IPV mini v2 for about a month now and haven't had a problem thus far but my battery cap is now stuck and it won't budge at all I don't remember over tightening it at all only until it catches but it just won't budge :/ I've tried everything using rubber hands, pliers even wearing merigolds because they have a lot of grip but nothing :/ can anyone suggest anything?

I have an istick 20V which I use an Aspire tank ... the adapter is stuck to the bottom of the tank I cant unscrew it. any one have an idea how to remove it other than pliers and ruining either the bottom of my tank or the adapter?... I tried hot water n soap but no go. any suggestions will be appreciated
i just noticed there is like a gash on the glass part of my tank i was just wondering if i could do to fix it instead of having to go out and buy another one (so it won't leak)? like tape or w/e
it is on the outside and is not leaking ATM
I've got a VTR that i was using with an aero tank, but was burning through coils like every 4 days. Local vape shop recommended the nautilus mini since that's what the owner uses with the same juice I use. Doesnt quite fit with the VTR ring, but they showed me how to screw the base in and just pop it in that way. Cool, no problem right? Yeah right.
I go to refill and i cant get this ....ing thing off at all. The 510 connection is not stuck in to the device, but the bottom ring to unscrew the glass part is just not budging at all. So now I basically have a inert device and tank that cannot even be used and I'm out 52 bucks in total for this damn tank and coils.
Hey all -- I'm a tech and do a lot of driving. I usually use a rugged mod and a Steamcrave plus tank with a 15ml bubble glass on long trips so I can get where I am going without having to change batteries or refill the tank.
I was passing through a mountainous area with some very steep inclines and declines and my tank leaked all over the place. It has happened more than once.
I never really thought about it but I guess changes like that affect it. I'm a tech not a scientist so I guess there is some theory behind it?
Hey guys looking for a tank that will last me long. As we all know CE4's aren't the best mine died pretty quickly. Looking for a tank that will last me long, and wouldn't need replacement coils very often. Also hoping these tanks are glass so they don't break with certain juice. I was thinking the evod glass 2 or the aspire k1. Any ideas? And will these tanks fit on my battery?

I busted my tank and my local store didn’t have another so I just decided to buy a whole new head/tank to go on my SMOK morph 219 mod. I asked the store clerk several times before I made the purchase if the tank I’m buying is compatible with my mod. He insisted it would work. Well now when I get it home and try to use my new tank on my mod (SMOK morph 219) it keeps asking if it’s a new coil with a different size every time. Any advice? And no I didn’t forget.... the new tank is a vaporesso cascade tank 7ml. 60.5X25MM 81g.
