    Discontinued Elevape SV

    Great. So it should be possible from what I understand. I managed to get it loaded, but it took 3 tries. I posted about it a week back: http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/elevape-sv.13517/page-75#post-814082 Restarting my computer at the appropriate time seemed to be the key. Have you tried...

    Discontinued Elevape SV

    First, a most important question, what's the serial number on your unit? Is it under 100? TIA OF

    Cool. About time, don'cha think? How you fixed for fire? An appropriate torch is a big plus. My advice is to right now order a couple of these: http://www.dx.com/p/jet-1300-c-butane-lighter-1320#.VZtCV8nSO9I Best lighter I've found for VM (although it only shades the official VM one by a...

    Arizer Solo

    IMO the most likely culprit is an "open" (that is break) in the heater. Tapping simply closed the crack up enough to make contact again. I agree, repair is in order. It will come back no doubt. OF

    Sorry you're having troubles, hopefully PIU will sort it out for you. Since we're talking new gear in sealed boxes I doubt dealers have anything to do with it (only contribution they can make is in Service?). It is a standard USB connector, if other (normal, non defective) cables are not...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Probably very little if any damage from a single event, just don't make a habit of it. It's a great vape, enjoy it. Regards, OF

    I too was first 'turned off' to the abnormally short time out. FWIW my new Summit has an even shorter time out. After some reflection I see them as being designed for different duty than I normally think in terms of? It's not intended to be a 'session vape'? OTOH, if the idea is to whip it...

    Arizer Solo

    Counterfeit is perhaps the wrong term, I doubt they really exist? "Ghosts" might be more appropriate? One thing sure, if you actually get one from them at that price it won't be coming with legit serial numbers....... Counterfeit or stolen, it's still a scam dollars to doughnuts. OF

    Arizer Solo

    I'm sorry you didn't follow, but I can assure you it has nothing to do with my being intoxicated. If you read it again I'm suggesting you might plan to throw a possible defective one out and replace it, based on the numbers you provided? The risk of that is, I think small and the savings...

    Arizer Solo

    Tough call. When you factor in the probability of a problem you could easily be 'money ahead' planning on throwing away a defective unit (even in warranty) and buying another. Say, for instance they were only 50% reliable (an extremely conservative number IMO, I'm sure it's well over 95% (less...

    Discontinued Elevape SV

    Bummer. Not common I'd say for 'better' vapes, but not impossible. Warranty service costs can kill the profit from several to many other units that have no problems. A company can easily go broke that way, that too is 'not uncommon'. If you want a vape with a very good reputation for...

    The Arizer Air

    I got confused, but if you're talking about charging in the Air it most definitely is safe. It tapers the last 10% or so of the charge smoothly from about .8 Amps down to just under .1 Amps before cutting completely off. Perfect 'right off the charts' protocol. Unless yours is defective...

    The Summit by Vapium (Formerly MARK 1)

    OK, Gentle Friends, new topic: The 'Battery Meter'. The manual says we get a flash in white indicating the battery level. The steps indicate 5, 15, 50 and 75% charge remaining when lit. With advice to recharge when two or less show. So I ran mine down until I got angry red flashes on the Go...

    The Arizer Air

    Thanks. Who knows what that means for sure, but I agree it's possible/likely. I still recommend a test. Fast and conclusive (hopefully). Much faster and more conclusive than educated guesses. Standard troubleshooting drill, change one factor (in this case heat) and see if the fault follows...

    The Arizer Air

    It might, I don't know, but usually such protections give an indication? I'd expect a flashing something? FWIW normally such protections are quite high, 50 to 70C typically? You can easily test this idea, put the charger and batteries in the refrigerator for a while and try again? OF

    I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was obligated to answer both your issues. I foolishly tried to answer the first, more objective, one leaving the second (quite subjective) for others since we've been through it so many times before. I chose to answer the new point, the one I don't think anyone...

    The Summit by Vapium (Formerly MARK 1)

    Gentle Friends, Here's a 'peek under the hood' for those interested in such things: The 'Go Button' has two switches with the LED that lights the button on the right end on the center line. Below (meaning left....) of that are the four LEDs for status and the + and - keys and finally the...

    Fake Solo and Ascent

    Out of curiosity why would you expect a product made in Canada to be cheaper when shipped to China for marketing? I agree, it smacks of a 'fishing expedition', a perverse sort of market research? Vapes actually made in China make much better candidates for 'gray market' (stolen, unauthorized...

    Any reason to vape if you are cigarette smoker?

    I too think this is a deceptively incorrect statement. Even to the point of being glib? In fact smoking is vaporizing but with a bunch of dangerous junk thrown in. Useless junk when it comes to getting high? The THC is evaporated out of the herb by the hot air, same as it would with any...
