Need 5C's And Buzzkill's Help Please

[5cardstud]

El Dee, Sometimes people talk without thinking. I like the one about judge not lest ye be judged etc. You should have told him that. Some people believe their way is the only way and obviously he hadn't read a word about nicotine other than what was printed on the side of the box.
I like this quote: "Better to leave some in ignorance rather than attempt to challenge it."

Oh and now that I have a new long range wireless keyboard on the way I figured out the problem with this one. The numbers lock was on. DUH.

I didn't care for the V2s but the Fusions rock my Buzz world!

Been there 5C LOL! Wish I'd have thought of it when you posted about it earlier.

Oh well, now I'll have 3 LR wireless keyboards. One for each hand and 1 for my toes.

hairball can you post a closeup pic of the 801 cap connector for me?

Ruppy, I will get my daughter to do it. My little camera sucks for close pics. Stay tuned.

Ok I did not read the whole thread ! , where are we with this ??? quick overview please ??

 

[Wharf Rat]

Ruppy ~ here's a pic




Mike ~ The issue is the Fusion center post is fairly close to the bottom of the threads and the screw on the 801 cap is a little high. It creates a very tight draw. It is a hair tight on my IKV 801 atty.

Got it worked out Mike...801 cap won't work with fusion carto's so I had to get an adapter. I bought the cap hoping to avoid adapters but the screw in the cap sits to close to the top and constricts the airflow. All is good. I can use the cap for my 801 atty's.

Thanks for putting up the pic for Ruppy. I took some shots but they are terrible.

Its tight because its trying to use the tiny 801 holes in the carto it appears. Really notching the top like the 808 cap should work. Ultimately making the center post able to be screwed up and down would help as well.

Adapters are fixing the problem because they are allowing air from underneath up the middle

I ground my screw heas down to a flathead and it works pretty good. Was hard though with that tiny screw and the meat hooks I have.

Well my Buzz is set up with an 801 for Fusion use...Draw is tight as noted. The side holes on the Fusion are small. There is an adequate groove on the Fusion center post connection that is obviously being blocked by the screw...I've been debating this issue since it arose...A very light connection between the Fusion and Buzz seems too improve the draw...The holes on the side of the Fusion must pass air through the center connection...5C has stated grinding the screw has improved draw...I was going too cut a slot into my screw too allow air into the center...Modifications ala 808 will not work the problem is the center of both the Fusion and Buzz. The screw is simply blocking the hole...A slotted and non-phillips head screw may improve flow adequately..Though I don't know the availability of a straight cut screw...Grinding or cutting the slot should work as would flattening the head on the screw...Mike if you can post the size of the Buzz's screw...I'll see if I can find one too replace it so no mod other that changing the screw will work...

 

[Ruppy]

DOH he posted the center screw size the other day. lemme see if I can find it El Dee. It was in another thread.

 

[Ruppy]

Heres what mike posted

Well there is no real support under it so I guess you are careful LOL !
BTW it is a M2 screw

 

[BuzzKill]

It is an M2 x .45 screw , I have them in a slotted head at work , just send a request for some and I can send them SLOW BOAT to you , I will look into changing the 801 to use the slotted screw .

 

[Ruppy]

HA! figures youd post right after I tracked the other post down
