It's really quite simple, Joe had read your post so when I called him to confirm what he'd told me about the IC problem (very few, long ago, not in current stocks?) he was right t here with the details of 'could you have shipped a bad IC in the s/n range? (the range you gave me?). He gave me...

But I do know. Exactly. In case you missed it, I checked with Joe just before posting, he went and got the photos of the defective battery and board to confirm. I'm sorry, I don't mean to shout at you if that's how you take it, I'm trying to emphasize the point. You did not have an incorrect...

Beats me, my impression is only one such failure so far, easy to spot if you know what to look for so unlikely to 'slip out'. My guess is he'd just worked on the other fellows so that possibility was fresh in his mind. It's not something you can check over the phone or web, you'd have to...

The general rule for high performance Li-ions is ideal charging is at the '1 to 2 hour rate'. Most systems are shy of that. The official charger (the only one I can recommend that fits Arizer guidelines) is one Amp (two hour rate, give or take), so that charger is slower in any mode. Past...

Actually no, you didn't. You had a battery failure, YOUR UNIT HAD THE CORRECT PART. The shorted battery damaged another, cutting the total power potential of the battery pack. There are six total, but a bad one can suck the whole lot down. Again, not the incorrect part, a battery failure...

Wow, something happened here. My computer crashed just as I posted, it seems to have left 1/2 of the post out and goofed up the quotes. The one above doesn't belong to Tripwire....... The response was, of course to Al... Let me see if I can recall the high points. I called Joe, much as I...

No, I'm suggesting things I know to have been problems to others in similar conditions. Trying to help guys out? I don't know about eNano (never seen one) but I think VG is a poor comparison in that thee's a huge amount of energy available compared to ESV. ESV is therefore more demanding of...

Yes, but that was long ago. And it didn't keep units that fired normally from working right? Not a factor in new units as I understand it. Again, I seriously doubt a guy will get a defective unit buying today. If I understood Joe (always a question) there just aren't significant field...

You know, now that we have a second guy having troubles I'm even more convinced that it's technique related (that is I can't see a couple of independent but defective units in the same week. It occurs to me that guys might just not understand convection vaping as happening here? To make vapor...

Welcome to the Forum, lots of good folks around already, room for more. I suspect the good folks at PIU keep an eye on the customer's country and give the charger to match. It's the sort of stuff Randy would do....... And the down side is no big deal, the charger is good for 100 to 220 Volts...

All makes sense to me. For sure battery life is not a strong suit with Summit. It eats up power to get to temperature fast and loses it fast between hits. It's optimized for 'grab a quick hit or two on the sly or an awkward spot and get on with it' duty. As a session vape, it's weak...

First off, howdy! Welcome to the forum. As a long time lurker you know how it works, members contribute their ideas/experiences, I hope we see you doing so when you get it sorted out? It's clear you've done your homework, Solo, IMO, makes a great 'first vape'.......but you know that. Anyway...

Perhaps there's too much restriction such that you can get the heater to temperature but not draw enough air though it to heat the load at the rate you want? One test that hasn't been mentioned, I think, is to look into the empty bowl in the bathroom mirror as you blow into the charging/USB...

Yep it is, and that part plays a HUGE role in how it works. Unlike convection, the incoming air is cold, so cools the load as you hit. I measured drops of like 100F in the center, from 400F to 300F. There's a write up about it a year or so back with a couple photos showing how it was done...

I think it's fair to say you can get similar results, at least in some cases, but the technique is very different. I like Ascent, but it takes more fiddling to get it 'right' I think. Conduction is more limiting, therefore Ascent has to be 'in the groove' to really shine. For me, that means...

A favorite joke of mine: Do they have a Fourth of July in England? Yes, it comes right after the third, same as here...... We almost adopted German instead (in case you didn't know), barely missed street names that are longer than some marriages. I think that would have made a change in how...

That's unfortunate, what do you think the problems is? Perhaps it's a rate of production thing, desktops have lots of power on tap typically, portables have modest amounts. Therefore production is slower (takes more seconds to exhaust the load). That is basing your assessment on visible vapor...

Several of us already have in this thread, have you read it? If you have and didn't find what you want, perhaps a specific question or two? As far as ISO goes, it's basically all the same, none safer than the other. You need 'high proof', 70% is the minimum IMO, 95% is significantly better...

But he has (in a small way), nothing like he'd like to do, if he only could. He has made it very clear, 16 times now....... I assume you caught the last time he exploited someone else's fragility to rant again? Nothing he suggests would have effected the event in Oregon, of course. Stuff he...
