I didn't mean to start a whole thing or be a vape evangelistic dick. I hope I didn't cause any offense.

This study was conducted improperly. Please do not join in this foolishness. Here is an explanation: http://tobaccoanalysis.blogspot.com/2015/01/confirmed-formaldehyde-study-conducted.html?m=1 The "formaldehyde study" published in New England Journal of Medicine was not even scientific enough...

Ran this yesterday morning, just now pulled it out of the vac. Grab bag wax - I had almost a half o total of a few strains: Blue Cheese, Black Diamond, Super Lemon Haze, Tangerine Dream and Pineapple Mango. My guy always throws in at least a few extra gs per qp, and they won't fit in the tube...

When I iso soak globe coils I shake out the extra and set the globe upside down on a paper towel on top of my internet modem overnight. The warmth of the machine is enough to dry everything out. one nice thing about those globes is that you get an extra coil so no cleaning downtime

Yeah I use this technique, but I wasn't telling anyone to never take the coil out, I was just saying I never do it. I only want to say what works for me. I have also boiled the coil ad iso soaked it but I have found heating the really old gunk out and letting it drip right into the trash works...

If it tastes gross I myself would not enjoy it. I would take the unit to bits (remove the plastic shell, unscrew the two stainless chambers, remove the retaining collar and resistance rod, remove the top cap) and take the top stainless section (with the coil still inside but not the rod) upside...

for what it's worth you could buy one now, and when it wears out upgrade to the new top for $10. The w9 warranty is 1 year (extendable) and doesn't die when the product line is upgraded to a newer version (IME). Or you could wait, but then you have to play the waiting game which sucks (I would...

yeah forgot to say I got the 510 version last time, my 601 is old style

the newest glass globes I have received are one piece, all glass (no separate mouthpiece). Still, you are right - just pop the thing off like when you load it.

This is not the w9 site, its a forum for us. 99.whatever percent of us are customers, not affiliated with w9. If you don't like their email policies I suggest you contact them. Since there is often a reward of a 10% off coupon for writing a review, I hope they don't stop sending them to me (I...

It seems like you are a little out of order here. You realize they do have to pay people to package and handle shipping - I feel like I get a great bargain by using w9's generous warranty system. Every time I send something in for repair it comes back to me not as good as new but better - the...

@Tstat yeah. And i bet those are 7.4 v rods, so the 2.4 is like 23 watts and the 3 ohm is like 18 (I think) and that's why it still performs. 18 is still pretty powerful for what its worth imo and beyond the range of a lot of vapes, but if you tighten that collar some I bet that resistance will...

Here is an idea that worked for me: until you get the feel for where the rod should sit, do this. When you assemble the herc put in the rod and only tighten the collar enough that the rod can still slide a little when you push on it but will stay in place if not pushed, and thread the two...

the persei has a protection feature that cuts power if you shake it around too much (it is drop protection). when that happens the unit shuts off and the light blinks. It happens with batteries but it can happen a lot more often with the, sometimes only blinking and not firing. It is not broken...

I love batteries but I have a long commute in the morning and 1 18650 is not enough juice to power the herc for the whole ride (I really only like the performance with the battery at 4.2 - 3.9 v, so I don't get more than 12 or 15 rips before I have to change). The core is an incredible...
