    With a few specifics, we might be able to diagnose the problem for you, like how long did you let it charge, what type and brand of battery is it, what type of cartomizer/atomizer/tank are you using, have you used different types of cartos/atties/tanks, etc.

    Glad the spacers took care of the problem for you.

    How many did you use and where did you place them?

    I actually got the V2, and still had issues with it. The magnetic spacers i got from avid vaper have made the issues disappear tho and the device has performed flawlessly. Still a bit unhappy with my interactions w/ Smoktek tho.

    I also have yet to hear back from Rob Davis, so I really can't see myself purchasing from them again. All I asked was that they acknowledge the issue and offer a fix for it that didn't involve spending another $40-50 on new batteries. Stock the spacer, add them as an option for a few bucks. I would've gladly paid more for them.

    I got it from VapeLite.info, one of my favorite suppliers, and emailed Paul a picture of the tank. He sent me a fresh tank out in the order I had placed the same day, and it arrived today unscathed. This is why VapeLite rocks! Go there and check out some of their prices...you'll buy something. Best prices on Dekang e-liquid you'll find, too.

    You know, I never thought about it before, but you're right. It's almost like they're saying, "yeah...no thanks...smoking is better for me".

    I have seen people take one really tiny pull, go into an extremely exaggerated coughing fit, and hand it back shaking their head at me with a look on their face like I'm crazy for doing it. Some others tell me that they saw on "The News" how dangerous "Those Things" are and flatly refuse to try it.

    By contrast, I haven't had a coughing fit since April 8, 2012...the day my first PV arrived in the mail. Haven't had a single cold since that day, either. Coincidence...I think not.

    Rixter got a reaction from Uma in Vamo On The Way   
    If VariTube.com didn't offer the Sigelei Zmax starter kit for $89.95, I'd go with the Vamo, but I just can't pass up that price on a machined stainless steel VV/VW APV. They're out of the kit at the moment and just offer the body for $79.95, but they're supposed to have their stock replenished next week. The kit comes with a case, charger, 18650 and 18350 batteries, both end caps, and a clearo.

    @Uma...VariTube told me that the 510 connection depth "issue" is really a non-issue except on the voltage meter that Phil Busardo tried unsuccessfully to use at a little past 8 minutes into the following video. They said that the only connection problems are with defective cartos/atties/tanks with recessed center pins as opposed to flush or protruding center pins...in other words, the lack of contact would be due to faulty accessories and not the Zmax itself. They also said that any device that couldn't make contact could be made to work by using a standard 510-510 adapter. For the price, I can go with that.

    I'll still probably get a Vamo for on the go, though. The price is right and it appears to be using the same circuitry as the Zmax V2, just housed in a stamped metal body...not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Rixter got a reaction from joe2003 in Boge Carto Tanks?   
    I own two of 'em, and haven't noticed an airy draw at all. After about a week and a half, the Boge tank carto that came in one of the F-16s started to gurgle a little, so I replaced it with a Smoktech tank carto from CCV...still using that one and it works great.

    If there's ever a problem with draw, it's going to be with the carto and not the tank itself, because the F-16's o-rings provide a good seal to the tank cartos.

    FYI - get a tank filler tool for $3.49 when you order. It's like a funnel that fits in where your drip tip goes while filling, and it'll make filling your tanks a snap.

    Rixter got a reaction from kitsune in Too Many Cartomizers!   
    Same here, kitsune. Throwing away a carto after a single use is wasteful and expensive. Polyfill holds the e-liquid between the strands, but the individual strands are non-absorbent. You can completely remove any residual flavors by drawing hot sterile water in through the carto's threaded end using a syringe, and then you simply air-dry them. You can do that several times before the draw becomes too tight for comfort.

    As for cleanliness, it's not like we're filling them in an alley by the dumpster. Any germs you pick up while filling cartos are germs you're breathing in anyway, right?

    I get the same thing from time to time. Doesn't matter. If smoking didn't make me hack and feel generally bad, I'd still do that. It's my business alone what I do to me, and some people will always think they should have some say in your life. The fact is that since I quit smoking and started vaping, my overall health has increased dramatically, and that's what really matters.

    Rixter reacted to Tam in E-Cig Safety: Rhetorical Question   
    When I smoked analogs I didn't smoke them inside the house, always went outside. I smoked in my car but not when there was a non-smoker riding along. On long trips, my stopping to get out of the car to smoke made the trip longer. Oh well. I always crack the window open when I drive, it doesn't matter if I'm smoking, vaping or whatever. I just like the fresh air.

    Aaaaaand I'm allergic to little kids so they don't get to ride in my car.

    I wouldn't in a car,perhaps inside across the room.I suppose as long as you put them in a car seat you could tie them on the roof,plenty of fresh air there.Actually the exhaust fumes from the car or truck in front of you is probably doing more harm than the ecig.

    Wow. And I'd like to introduce you to Mr. Kettle over here. That last line sounded suspiciously like a very real threat.

    So you took exception to the content of this post. Why keep coming back to it? If it offends you so much, there's always the back key and then you won't have to read it anymore.

    Honestly, all the members that I've had the pleasure to meet and talk to on this forum have been nothing but nice. They are welcoming and friendly with everyone, you included up until lately anyway. People have their own opinions. If you don't like one of them then don't read. It's as simple as that, really.

    You are a complete jerk. Why don't you go back to ECF and resume trolling there? I've never seen a single post here at Vapor Talk Forum where someone gets so downright hostile over nothing, and that's the reason I continue to frequent this forum. The people that use this forum are good, friendly folks, and reading your posts just brings me down. Please take your idle threats and I>U attitude somewhere else so we can all go about the business of having fun and getting informed without getting slammed.
