Hi All,
I've got a couple of PV's with 510 connections. 10motive, SDK & E-Power.
I've also got a few different cartos - 10motives, SDK & Boge.
Now I thought that all my stuff was standard 510 connections, so all the cartos 'should' fit everything.
Indeed, everything does work fine on the 10motives & SDK.
However, only the Boge cartos work on the E-Power. Can anyone shed any light on why this might be ?

OK, I've been having a close look at this e-power.
The only difference I can see is that it has a sealed connector.
There is a difference in the cartos as well. On the Boge ones, the center bit protrudes past the end of the threads.
My guess is that (on the 10motives & SDK cartos) the center bit isn't making contact with the relevant connection in the e-power.
Whether the connection on e-power can be moved forward (or the ones on the cartos I'm not sure).
Any one any thoughts ?

Yeah mate, you can pry the carto centre pins out a bit. Thing is they may push back in easy so be mindful of it when screwing onto your mod. I don't know a thing about the e-power but most mods have some give in the centre pin. See if you can get at it from below but be careful not to wreck the threads whichever way you go. I'd suggest trying to solve it at the carto end first and see how you go.
I expect someone will offer you a bit more precise advice once the right person reads your post. Hopefully this'll help you till then : )

I'd be tempted to say it was the carto, but it's every single one I've got (other than Boges).
Will have a play tomorrow and see what's what.
