Both my battery and mech mod get ridiculously hot in a matter of seconds when I put my new atlantis clone on it, other attys work fine on my mod and the atlantis works fine on my I stick 20 clone, can anyone explain why this is happening?

Mod gets hot with atlantis clone

It's a hybrid top cap the Atlantis cannot be used since the 510 pin doesn't stick out your shorting out the battery can vent if you use it with that mod.
Stop using it with the 4nine
NEVER, I repeat NEVER use an Atlantis on a hybrid top cap mod. You are risking battery venting and worse doing that. The positive center pin on the atty MUST protrude at least 1mm or greater or you risk shorting out your battery (bad,bad news).

OP - If you're confused, look at the bottom (the 510 connection) of both your Atlantis and another atty that works fine on your fournine. See how the center of the pin protrudes a tiny bit on the other atty but is flush on the Atlantis? That's what the other posters are talking about. The top of the fournine is what's known as a hybrid cap - in other words, the atty directly touches the battery. All caps like that have to have attys where the center pin sticks out a little bit or it shorts out. Most tanks (subtanks, atlantis, etc.) DO NOT work on hybrid caps but they work fine on other mechanicals with non-hybrid/regular caps.
