Gutting as Im 12 days into stopping smoking, and vaping has proved a big help. I think ill have to buy another charger first and then send the original back to the retailer for replacement. Otherwise I might end up smoking again in the meantime.
have had my pinniclepro for about 7 months now love every moment of it but now they issue that was happening to others, the plastic is cracking were you clip the mouthpiece in and were the bullet slides down anyone know if they sell replacement parts to fix this? im going to assume the crack is going to cause a issue with air leaking in under mouthpiece
purchased this from theyoyokid on may 10th 2014 was a wonderful purchase thanks!

Yes, that's right @lookhigh . It was $13 + $10 shipping to the UK. I will replace it myself, a 5min job apparently.
1. Remove the plastic lens surrounding the leds and button, just flips out.
2. Depress the tabs by the upper air holes, and the internals will slide out.
3. Remove the small screws holding the "top" piece in place.
4. Replace top piece, and screw in place.
5. Slide the internals back in to the case, make sure the tabs locate in the holes.
6. Replace plastic lens.
That's it! (Please correct me if any of this is wrong guys!)
@theyoyokid1 is a trusted seller, very quick response and turnaround. Within 15mins of paying (Paypal) I received a tracking number! I have read this whole thread and I have not seen a single complaint about him. TRVB could learn a lot from him about customer service!
I suspect VB are "employing" the yoyokid to sort out these issues with the "top" piece and PonG's as they can't be arsed with it. They seemed to have stopped posting in this thread.
Can't wait to get my new "top" piece and PGonG!
Combusting is dead, vaping is the future, the future is now!

Hi all,
A few weeks back, I sold my PnP (about 7 months old) to a friend to help offset the cost of a Crafty. She has egregious stealth issues as well and apparently uses the bathroom as her base of operation (let he who hath not done this cast the first stone).
You're probably already seeing where this is going...
She had decided to go for a really tight pack and test that. She was very excited but apparently just a tad too excited and lost her grip on the freshly loaded PnP. It dropped into the clean toilet bowl...nothing but net.
She pulled it out quickly but (this is where I fear she may have gone off the rails) she decided she should plug it into the charger. Obviously, this did not benefit her. She set it aside to dry. After a week to dry, the unit is still non-responsive.
Any Hail Mary/Last Ditch Efforts that anyone can recommend to try to resuscitate the thing? I feel bad because this was a big purchase for her and she had only had it for a couple weeks.
Any thoughts (besides "don't vape in the shitter") would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Put in a bag with uncooked rice, the rice absorbers moisture.
This if it was done straight away would more than likely have worked, but as you say plugging it in is not good. Also try removing the battery (if you know how to do this(i can guide you)) and check voltage output.

Thanks, @lookhigh. I suggested the rice but it was several days later before I heard about it. I do not know how to get the battery out but hope it doesn't require soldering to put back in...
I think it's probably too late. When you get electronics wet, they'll often survive as long as you don't apply power. Once you do that, things start shorting and it's game over. Plugging it into the charger likely sealed its fate.

Yep, that was my thought. I'll try to pull the battery and see what happens. She's got nothing to lose at this point.

Welp, I did it. Ordered a pinnacle from Yoyokid earlier today to replace my busted long tube T-Vape 1. Should be in Thursday

Hi,
Just a quick one; My PP is heating (blinkin) for so long, even for 1st level, that it ends up switching off. Is it a battery issue?

Yeah I messaged him on eBay thanks, collar sounds easy enough I'm pretty handy so no problems here

I haven't been on here in awhile. After a few vapes broke, I had to switch back to combustion. Was not a fan.
Recently, I was able to get a few portable vapes and the PPRO is my favorite thus far. Ordered from @theyoyokid1 and received Monday.
Unfortunately, I had to have emergency surgery Monday to remove my appendix so I was not released until yesterday evening.
This thing works like a charm. It did wonders for my pain relief, I love the plug n play option, and the water tube is exciting to me as soon as I'm more capable of moving around to fill it and sitting upright to hit.
A couple questions I have after reading the thread -
What adapter is best for using with a car charger, and how many have had issues with the plastic cracking or melting on the MP?
I am debating on ordering back up parts and a Gong adapter because I'm so fond of this and don't want to have to go without it.
I'm also using a small spare screen from my titan inside the bullet to help keep it clean and I'm intrigued by the idea of cotton which can also be vaped when residue builds....any other tips from veteran vapers on here?

They cracking of mine was more or less only because I didn't clean recently and when taking the mouthpiece off it was stuck so wiggling when the plastic was very hot split it basically it's memt to be poped off not back and forth cause it slips in the collar
Clean every now and then you don't need to be maintained crazy with this vape which is awesome and you'll have yourself an awesome product

I'll have to check, whatever yoyokid has is what I received. Does that come stock now, he's an authorized reseller so it very well may be.
I finally got the opportunity to check, I do have the glass lined pong and finally got a chance to use the WT.
I haven't been more impressed with a vape since my arizer extreme q, which unfortunately I need to repair because I miss it dearly.
It puts my titan and gpro to shame.

Anybody know if something like this would work with my car charging port?
Edit: sorry mods, can't figure how to merge my posts

I think you would be better off using the original Vapor Blunt plug and a simple power inverter.

I don't know if a "car charging port" would give the PnP the "proper" charge required.

Thank you, i'll look into that.
I'm currently trying to stop myself from purchasing the arizer air...... maybe getting a few pnp accessories will help.
Im on a vape buying binge and its terrible...... found an Air from authorized dealers for 179......ahhhhh :/

Ive had a solo, for about 50 bucks more I find the interchangeable battery intriguing with the air.
I had an older model solo and only had good draw with Eds stems though, could be why I'm hesitant to get another.

I've had my PnP for about 4 months now and it's just decided to die on me. It has the red flashing light problem and fails to heat up. I purchased it from vapefiend.co.uk, but I think I'm going to have to return it to the manufacture unfortunately 
I've just bought a trusty Solo from vapefiend to replace it, but I'm gutted as I really fancied a toke up this evening

I have a feeling, even though mine will either still be running or still be under warranty, that when the new one comes out (few months I believe) I'll be getting that too.
I really do love this little gadget through water and the bullet system is genius
