Kindred mech tube

[Moses]

Not charging anything.

I send you a message in the morning if that's ok mate.

Ohhh I may take you up on that offer as I have the kindred 1.5 to and some reason I can't fit a 18650 in it with our it chewing up the battery wrap. I think there's a lip that needs rubbing down. Ping me a message on how much you will charge me mate to take a look at both of them please.

I have the 1.5, yes the tube is tight where the threads are like the edge pushed in when cutting threads. I run a knife sharpening rod around the inside of mine. @MTB Vaper had the same issue and used some wet n dry afaik.

I think the only difference between 1.5 and 2 is the 1.5 is split tube for 18350. If you remove the switch, inside bottom of tube there is the bottom contact held with delrin disc with 2 holes so can adjust with tweezers, I tightened this just untill i felt it reached end of the threads. You could give this a try if it is same on v2 then adjust the top contacts as john said

I thought about filling the lip down on the inside of the tube.

Molicels are tight in a few tube mechs, though the kindred 1.5 its too tight on the 18650 extension from the thread being cut.
Run some wet and dry on the inside of the tube under the thread, the extension peice is were I open the mech up to swap battery over.
Worked on mine, though I'm using thinner vapcell K25 18650's as its MTL only.

I've only got a file to hand, so I'm going to see if I can file it down a bit.

Filed it down just a little bit and now I can slip batteries I'm and out. So I've managed to get the 1.5 firing now I just have to work out how to make the 2.0 work.
