KPT Mini 2

[spydre]

HELP! You guys know how on the bottom of the glass of the KPT mini 2, there is an O ring that is literally just....stuck there? Well, I've worried about it, so I rarely changed what was in that tank. I was too afraid of taking it apart and that O ring coming loose. Well, when I was screwing it back together again just now, or rather, about 10 minutes ago, it happened. The O ring became UNSTUCK from the bottom of the glass. It was sitting nice and prettily in the piece that the glass screws into, so I thought it would be okay if I just kept it there. Nope. I would screw it on, and the O ring would move, coming out of the groove. How do I fix this situation?

Do I have to somehow glue it back onto the glass? Or what?

Mine came off to I just lightly screwed it back together and all is good

Moisten it with liquid so it doesn't bunch up as you tighten

I'll try that, Mcquinn, thanks. That was my big problem.

Okay, I had a D'oh moment - well, evidently a few of them, with that particular mini. I didn't notice the O ring when I first took it apart to rinse it out before I used it, so I didn't notice which end of the glass tube it was on. I had been putting it on the bottom of the tube, and well, that's not where it goes. Guess that explains the whole TWO mysterious leaks I had where virtually all the liquid drained out. Hubby figured it out when he was fixing it for me, and well, wasn't too happy, and I totally get why. Boy, do I totally get why. He figured it out when we were trying to put it in bottom and it wasn't fitting, and he noticed, "hey, there's already an O ring here." *hangs head in shame* He put it where it goes with no problem, and I haven't filled up with juice yet, because I can't make up my mind what to put in it out of the sample bottles from EC Blends, but I will probably be Black Magic Tobacco, or That Juice! Probably That Juice! because I have plenty of Honey Wood, with more on the way, before I would need to find something cheaper.

I can see that happening, they are hard for me to see.
