@Donald Bickers I have a Nautilus with a recessed pin. I had to remove the coil head and get in there to push it out but it wouldn't stay (collapsed spring).
So I found a tiny silver spring that I was able to insert inside the original spring to give it more length.

I use flat tops on my stingray, too. I don't use it in hybrid mode, though. SMPL mods are all one piece without a top cap/510 connection which allows you to go direct to battery with your atomizer. Problem is: some attys have a pin that barely protrudes enough to make contact. This can allow the threaded walls around the pin to touch the battery causing a short. I wasn't thinking until I saw a vid explaining it and the guy suggested button tops to help make contact with the pin. Sounds right to me but just checking in with my friends here. When the set-up is good it hits so much harder with hardly a load drop.:)

Flat top or button top I wouldn't use a atty with a pin that doesn't protrude past the negative housing with a hybrid top cap.

You can put a oring under the head of a threaded positive pin but i find that you can't really get the pin tightened up that well and the positive block is not as tight as you want it. If you can get it snug, that's a good work around.
I have also sacrificed the spacer from another kayfun and dremel'd a slice off it to space the positive pin out a little more.

Most all newer atty's have a positive pin that is long enough for hybrid use... good excuse to try some new hardware :D

......"good excuse to try some new hardware"...... Nice try!:D We're still trying to figure out how to get the pin out (without a screw slot) so it can be spaced out beyond the negative housing. But, I hear ya'. I might have trouble tightening everything up properly. Worse case scenario: I'm limited to using my attys that have protruding pins only. Oh well, there are worse things in life

Sorry you're feeling like this, Cherrycakes. Don't know if it's helpful but we're hear to listen.
I don't know it seems like I'm constantly complaining and everybody is sick and tired of it and ignores me, so why bother

That's not a kayfun with a push in positive pin is it? It needs to thread into and lock down the positive block. Never seen a kayfun without a threaded positive, only seen clearo's and non rebuildables with a push in pin.

Maybe I missed it and this is not a kayfun that you're operating on?

Thinking about the oring thing, be careful with that. If you tighten the button housing up tight to the pin with a heavy hand it is possible to push the head of the pin right past that oring and short on your first button press.

I would be hesitant to use an atty that's not designed to have a long pin or better (like it sounds like you have) an adjustable pin.

Personally cherrycakes I can not even relate to what your going through, "I wish you would feel better but obviously until a doctor actually does something your going to be miserable any given day. We are all here to support you but it's hard to know what to say depending on your mood, not trying to offend you....I wish we could all make you feel better!

I'm probably the only one that thinks that sounds like a good time.o_O



But honestly I do wish that there were words that would bring physical comfort to you.
If there were I would say them to you every chance I got.

I never ignore any post you make and I am never tired of you voicing of your discomfort.
I just don't know what to say.
And then there's that thing with me being all weird and shit so that sometimes keeps me from saying things too.

But I do care. I truly do. And I would hug you or let you punch me in the eye if I was able to.
Maybe hopefully every now and again I can make some asinine comment that brings a smile to your beautiful face.
It's not much but at least I can do that from way out here in internet outer space.
Love you sweetheart, and hope you get something worked out soon that makes the pain go away or be bearable.

Cherry don't think of it as people ignoring you . I know for myself I am at a loss as to what to say . I know anything I say will not make it better . Do know that when I see you are having a bad I do say a prayer for you .

I think I'm transferring my fear/disgust at the realization that i am being ignored by doctors onto everybody else :(

I say stuff that I don't really mean it's part of the depression and hopelessness I guess

Pub night sounds like fun. Even though I have not had a drop in over 11 yrs I would still like to do stuff like that just for the commemorate.
I'm getting ready to take a nap and then back to work I go.
I've been running on 2 to 3 hour naps all week. Not one time in the last 5 days have I slept more than 3 hours at a time.
I'm plumb tuckered out.
But since I don't really have a life I guess I'm not missing out on much;)

But I always look forward to the pretty young ladies I work with. So that's awesomeness in itself. They all seem to be sweethearts.

I think I just seem to be the goofy old guy lol. :D

My husband gets the worst of it he's the one woken up at 3 a.m. By my randomly emitting blood curdling screams. The other day he had to take me home from work because I was in so much pain and he even started crying for once...
I'm trying to not be a burden but I just can't physically do things I want to do and it's hard for me to come to terms with that.

I glad you have him there with and for you.
I know it's difficult for the two of you to go through something like this.
But that you have him there is something to really cherish.
Things like this is why we say the vows we say in marriage.Things like this is when we really get to see our mate for what they are and where they really stand.

Pub night is fun and it's not like I drink that much . I come home so tired and my sides hurt like I have been to the gym for a work out because we laugh so much. That's why I am sooo tired the next day.

Oh Fishee I a sorry you are working that much . At some point you do have to take a day off or you will get so run down that you will miss work because you are sick. I am soooo glad at least you are working with good people , that can all the difference.
