    Discontinued Elevape SV

    Good attitude. And good luck I think in a funny way. Given mismatches are going to happen, I think it's fortunate it happens to you in a way where you can cover your loss, probably completely. That is I bet you can sell it as 'fresh back from service' for more than you paid for it, and...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hands down the glyph outperforms the Powerex (or MF would no doubt use them?). However, the PA is a whole other thing. You can really fine tune your box. Any battery, no matter how good, is going to be degrading as it discharges. A battery can either start out too hot, or not be hot enough...

    Charring vs combustion

    Yes. Air and Solo work basically the same. Four leads to the oven, two for power, two to sense temperature. This way losses from making vapor and heating air can be compensated for. The sensor is inside the assembly, most likely bonded to the SS cup. Yes, the seal is excellent. However no...

    Exactly so! There's been a LOT of work put in by established vape makers working on this very thing, with the results we see available in the market. Each maker hoping to use this as a competitive advantage. Up Tech, amongst them. G is speaking from experience here....... No, there's also...

    I strongly suspect that's not a possible use scenario. I think the MP will become too hot in a few minutes of such non stop use. A few hits at a time (with time to cool between) is 'more it's speed'. They've mentioned, I think, the Ti version will have a slight advantage here (heat), so it...

    True, but they're easy to scare off, really. PM me if you need some advice here? Still, if one has a persistent kid hanging around, this might be just the thing to scare them off too..... OF

    Sometime conditions prevent that simple (and traditional) solution. When unavoidable, the 'have the new guy do it' is probably the best call? OF

    You know, looking at those photos, I don't think any sort of burr can be at fault. A burr would, I think, attack the pin radially as the cap is screwed down. This looks more like polishing off the tip, complete with rounding, like a file or sandpaper might? My take is it came from a very...

    Without a doubt. But then so will coarser grinds. It's not the grind that leads to combustion I think but pushing too hard/lack of stirring. The material doesn't vape evenly, the hottest part is toward the MP. If you don't stir as you keep pouring the heat onto what's left (trying to make...

    The Arizer Air

    Ain't that the simple truth. Harkens back to the issue of comparing paychecks, very bad idea IMO, it's sure to lead to at least one upset guy. You're right as well, driving forward trying for better is deep in the Puritan ethic we spring from. So, over the objections of my wallet, I...

    The Grasshopper

    Hey, come on, that's not even fair is it? You made up the game, put me in all the key roles, and now you say I'm out of line for even trying to respond to the scenario you put up? That's special. And no, that's not what discovery is, is it? Discovery is where you tell the other side what's...

    I don't believe that's a fair characterization at all. I've stated my opinions, and (IMO importantly) the reasons behind them. Experiences with similar vapes included. I've questioned their claims (and I think successfully to some extent, they've backed down in key areas), but have not passed...

    Good point, lots of options is a good thing generally. However, it can also feed that 'grass is greener for them' envy which is not a good thing. Glad your Air is humming along making vapor.......that's why you bought it, right? OF

    I too suspect as much. They've no doubt asked each other 'what do we say when someone asks how long a charge lasts?'. The have to know that's important...... I disagree with that characterization. We were promised/assured "4+ hours", later dropped to 3. They named those numbers, we assumed...

    Great news. I think you should also contact them and tell them their advice seems to have helped. Such feedback might encourage them to offer that useful advice to the next poor soul with a similar problem? OF

    Don't panic. Breathe deeply, concentrate on the good times......it'll pass. If you need to, that's another issue. But IMO the MFLB is a good friend.......and selling a friend seems so very wrong. OF

    Yep, we tend to forget about that other continent. Although I get it's traditional to put the 'occupied' modifier on it to eliminate Antarctica, I recall reading a while back a fellow who pointed out with more than 3 dozen permanently manned, year round stations run by over a dozen countries we...

    Cool. That would be the second driest continent, right? The driest being much cooler......and having few residents to enjoy vaping and no states? OF

    A while back, Brother Sinclue posted a link for some first rate, preformed screens that do exactly that (reduce the volume) in a very neat fashion. They are much heavier than the screens normally used, hold their shape well and have a perfectly formed lip (unlike the ones you make by hand)...
