Albert The 12 volt DC transformer will work fine. If you have a Zap with an led "on" light, center must be positive for the light to work. The heater will work either polarity. All DC transformers I have seen come stock with the center pin positive so you should be fine. Thanks for asking. Just...

Tom is right on about the OCD. One reason the tried and true log vape design continues to be popular is there is only 12 volts at 1 amp going into the unit from a UL approved step down transformer. That adds a high level of safety to the traditional design. With 110 volts going in to a device, I...

Finally got off my ass and ordered something new. Parts should be here early next week. New item will be something on the order of "Transformer repair kit". An easy fix for that annoying broken wire right next to the output plug on the wall transformer that affects all log vapes using the Jameco...

You have to give the SOLVENT (iso, everclear, etc) time to diSOLVE the goo and screens will take longer than the smooth surface of the inside of a vapor stem. We also offer screen replacement kits for our vapor stems if needed. lweins 24 hour process sounds just right. Maybe a bit more often if...

lost492 It is the volts that counts when it comes to heat. You could run 50 amps to it but it will only use what it needs in amperage, less that 1 amp(1000ma). When you use the car adapter you are giving it lots of amps but the Zap does not need or use it. It is the 13+ volts that a cars...

desert turtle (pardon my mis-spelling) Thanks for the kind words. We had a good week and a super Saturday as far as the Zap train leaving Zapville goes. Always makes me feel good when I make the Saturday mail and we were late but still made it. I cannot go to the PO if I miss the mail on...

Alright morninglight! Thanks for posting that. We got so discombooberated for awhile I was not sure where to start with the missing Tootys with a carb so I guessed, hopefully erring in the customers favor. Looks like that worked. Good news also that you are another Happy Zappy. jordan23 Got...

More updates from Zapville. All back ordered Tootys with carbs were shipped yesterday for an expected Thursday arrival. We had a bit over a week of shipping Zap orders less the carbed Tooty because we were out and could not get more for several days. The design has slightly changed too with no...

All kidding aside Lwein, you are plenty wise. Of course I've been thinking about this one while firing up the barrel stove in the shop. I get stimulated to respond to certain comments but I do not get offended. I learned that here on FC. Plenty of experience dealing with comments intended to...

No offense taken Progress. My cavalier attitude about MY PRODUCT is what keeps us going. Folks can interpret that however they wish. Thank you for expressing your opinion on our thread. Lwein, I knew I blew it as soon as I posted the age thing. It is not a certain age one attains but a level of...

hazuki I can understand you not understanding my point. And you are correct about me being spoiled with our current business profile. I prefer a happy life. I try to earn enough money to keep my family happy. More money than that brings trouble in my book. I stay away from trouble. A man is not...

Rick is not so nice when he tells someone no but they keep wanting him to say yes. We have more than enough US sales and that is the only sales door we want open. Cant please everybody. I am perplexed at how many times this has come up yet nobody from outside the US is making log vapes. An...

Tooties should be less than a week from order to delivery. Tim, our glass guy, http://glassgods.com/Home.html , could not get the exact diameter glass tube that he had been using for Tooties so we had to come up with a slightly different design for the insert mount at the end of the glass stem...

Here is our Tooty tip info page again. I will also add that if the tip gets difficult to remove from the glass stem with the bonded insert, put a small flame(BIC, etc) under the brass tip and get it hot. It will slide right out as you turn the goo glue into goo lubricant with the heat. Also take...

We do appreciate all the Happy Zappies out there. Or is it Happy Zappos and Happy Zappas? We have had one or more going for close to ten years now. What a fun ride! Looks like this new year will continue the adventure, based on action here in Zapville since the Winter Solstice. Each day brings...

nerae Glad to hear you are a Happy Zappie. Now I need to tell you your Tooty and misc got delayed longer than you requested. Our road closure messed everything up around here because we did some shuffling of items to get one shipment out Monday during the closure. The highway finally opened...

Thank you for that post mom and my apologies to Ed for not highlighting his offer on this thread earlier. He does do some very nice work with wood and you cannot get much better than the charity he picked. Kids are always special to all of us but when they have to go through stuff only us old...

A short announcement for anyone following this thread who may have ordered recently. As many of you know, we are very rural folks. We have one practical way to get out to the rest of the world. That would be Idaho St Hwy 3. We use it to hook to I-90. The night before last, the State...

I can see everything just fine(without the zoom) but the content part of FC has giant wide margins of the gray background. I have fiddled with my Firefox preferences to make the fonts bigger already. No more squinting to see things. Just alot of wasted space on the FC pages. Could be just...

Got a new PC and bigger monitor for Christmas. Now my FC window has the pertinent data in the middle third of the page with the outer 2/3 being the gray design. What can I do to fill at least most of the page with the main portion. Maybe I am not clear or a reference if it has been asked...
