Fix tested on my Paranormal 75C Just ran through the initial fix suggested by ThatGuySwain regarding cleaning the threads on the 510. My testing thus far after cleaning the threads and the insulators is very positive. I didn't find any significant thread lock, though I did find quite a bit of juice. I have had several atomizers (TANK & Coil or RDTA) that have leaked since I purchased this mod and clearly the juice made it into the threads or created a minor bridge between the positive and negative terminals. After cleaning the 510 and all of the removable components of said 510, I am back in business and no longer seeing the resistance jump issue. Thanks for the info ThatGuySwain! Regarding taking the 510 apart: The ring that the black wire is soldered to is basically a "nut". The 510 threaded top section would be considered a "bolt" or a screw. If you gently but firmly hold the "nut" with small vice grips (use caution here...as too much pressure could crush the ring and ruin it), and the "bolt" with a standard set of slip-joint pliers (and some sort of cloth to protect the finish if you so choose), you can carefully unscrew the "bolt" from that negative ring (aka the "nut"). Next use some q-tips (aka cotton swabs) to clean the threads, insulators, and the positive pin. Reassemble in reverse order. Re-solder the black wire to the ring / "nut" and you are "off the races". Patience is key when unscrewing and screwing it back together. Make sure the bolt threads nicely back in to the nut, and make sure tighten it down snugly.
