Cheers, happy Holidazzzee everyone. Here's my solution for back-pain free travel to Chicago for New Year festivities: solo stem + hot coco + 1shot of espresso. couldn't get everything off of the solo stem but it'll do

Has this ever worked? I read it suggested a lot, but I sure don't recall anyone ever reporting it fixed it. I tend to look for events like that because they beg the question of 'how did it get messed up to start with?'. I would ask such successful owners to let us know if it happens again I'm sure. So if it's a useful suggestion for such cases (which seem to be defective chargers??) it sure got past me. And since no actual hardware fix was made I wonder how long the problem is going to stay away?
Anyway, does this soft boot work to fix real problems?
TIA

worked for mine countless times before I replaced my charger. I know it didn't ever fix the problem permanently but it got me back in the game until the charger ultimately failed completely

Received my Solo a couple of days before X-mas. Thanks to all for the advice.
I've only tried it once since getting it and, while it can't really compete with my SSV or 'cano, I did not expect that. Seems to be a nice portable vape.

Anyone got one delivered internationally? Buying one from New Zealand and a bit worried if it breaks i'm going to have to send it back to Arizer which could be an issue if it's been used (even if it's been cleaned thoroughly). Anyone had any experience with sending one back using the warranty internationally?
I had mine fail to turn on correctly. Would get 3 flashing orange lights. Both on battery and PA operation. Battery had lots of juice. Had visions of sending back.
Plugged in charger and the Solo did some weird light show. Can't remember what it did exactly, all lights flashed??. And IIRC, Turned off and back on like a reset. However, it initiated the process on it's own once 12 volts plugged in. This was months back so a little foggy and has never happened since.
So for me the reset solved a problem, but I'm pretty sure it did it by itself just by applying the 12 volts.

Sigh... defective solo only just arrived at PIU today. Still no replacement. Uggg...
Dude u cant compare a portable to a desktop. That being said go check out the EpicVape E-Nano plugin. Its a badass piece and more in line as a SSV competitor.

I quite agree that it is unrealistic to expect a portable to compete with an SSV. Mainly because it is battery powered vs. plug-in, but also (I suspect) due to the smaller size.
That said, it is tough to fit an SSV into, say, a jacket pocket. Each has its place.
(Caveat: I have very limited experience w/ portables and, as I posted in OP, have only tried my Solo once.)

Of course you are right about getting just as high. I meant in terms of the power of the unit & size of hits it can deliver.

It happened to me once. It worked there all the time untill i added a foodasver pump charger to the same cheap multiplug. Next day i figured out on the road my solo didnt charge last night. Next time i plugged it I got light shows. Never used or experimented with that charger again. I use my other charger on my power stripe with all my pc stuff now and all is good.

Im reading about all this resets stuff yesterday and though wow my og ceramic has never given me a problem, shouldn't ever think that stuff, this morning It heated and started a load but then got wonky, I noticed it lost heat mid hit and the charge light would come one for like 3 seconds then the heat light would flash 2 times like normal then charge light for a few sec again. Off/on and it just stayed solid charge light like it was dead, battery said full right before this and now says 3. After being off for around 30 min it appears to be fine????? Was that a sign of doom or just a hiccup. I plan to open it today and inspect the battery connection, this particular vape has seen thousands of miles living in a work vehicle, it has gone well above and beyond it's duty.
I should buy it some gold connections and send it to Fla.

Following up on this, I contacted Massdrop and... they promptly offered to send me a new one, shipping tomorrow, no charge, and I get to keep the old one too

...aaand it's here (Belgium)! Took just 9 days to arrive -- which is pretty fast for low-cost services like Massdrop. It's an M1C1, just charged it and doing a burn-off now. Looking fine.
Woo-hoo!

Massdrop has great prices, but be prepared for a wait. My cc was charged a little over a month ago and I have yet to receive my Solo

Bummer that.
Say, next time I can not send you a Solo for $100 flat. Think of how much more that can save you........
I hope you get yours soon, these guys are too keen to be without.

I've been following the last couple of Solo drops and the delays have always been on Arizer's end. Not that I'm pointing fingers, but a group buy service is not a store. Massdrop explicitly states you can expect a lengthy delivery time. I'd advise everyone not to use Massdrop if you value quick delivery. My first experience with them took over a month to deliver and my 2nd took nine days (both internationally). But they are consistently the cheapest you'll find (incl. shipping) and they will honor the guarantee.Massdrop has great prices, but be prepared for a wait.

They've been thinking about alternative shipment options (so you can pay for quicker delivery) but I'm not sure whether they acted on it yet.

I had that happen as well. I went to get the credit card to confirm the number, couldn't have been two minutes. I bought the carb version of the GonG stem (very easy to 'fix' with teflon tape) instead. Good show, it was months before they were back in stock.
They really should make more than 3 of each type at a time........

Also are there any complaints on the m1d model was about to order it
