The SR71 has no spring loaded gold contacts unlike the SR74. The Sr74 has a larger margin of assembly error and if will still function. The SR71 has be adjusted manually to make proper connection. Instead of spring loaded contacts you are relying on yourself assembly to make it work. That's why...
@torggzorz check to see if your Protank has a extra wick on top of your coil. I find some protanks have a extra wick on top of the coil. Ends up being burned.
I do cigar style puffs while warming up. Once the herc is producing thick vapor I inhale. I pulse the button according to how HOT the vapor feels. If it start getting too hot for my liking I start pulsating. Everyone is different on how much ur lungs can handle. Don't forget to do cool down...
The hammer top from w9 tech does have circuit protection. The sr71 is more powerful. Sr74 is more user friendly. As far as the way they function, same. Same concept/idea on both. Go on you tube and look for Gary's videos. They show you how to assemble the hercules correctly.
On the sr74 I have about a 12-16 second warm up from a cold start. Single coil loaded on the heavy side. After the initial warm up it produces vapor almost instantly after a few puffs.
Once you have the hercules assembled with the white rod do the following;
- put the voltmeter on the ohm setting.
-touch the leads together to see if you get a reading. If you do get a reading of let's say .5 ohm, keep that in mind. Write it down.
-this requires a steady hand. Grab the red +...
No I don't recommend this. You are pushing the batteries and the device to dangerous levels. The 3.7 black rod is about .6-.8 ohm. At 7.4v this is advised against. The white rod is plenty powerful once you get the hang of it.
@chronickiller7 it sounds like you have a older version persei. You...
I purchased a okeanos v2. Came with these o rings you describe. They seal up my okeanos glass nicely. I also purchased a spare glass too. Seals that one nicely too but requires a little bit more tightening. These O rings Are mounted on top and bottom glass. Between the glass and the top/bottom...
Both have to be spring loaded for best connection. U can remove the bottom insulator and screw the stainless steel cylinders directly into the 8 to see if the bottom insulator is causing problems.
I wonder this as well. Maybe in the future this is true since regular wick Ti and original kiss carts are reduced price. If you buy a rebuild kit from w9 it comes with the dark wicks.
If you order a Ti kiss cart I think more than likely it will have a bottom hole for okeanos duty. Maybe call w9 just to make sure u get a okeanos compatible kiss cart?
When I say okeanos v2, I mean the latest okeanos from w9. Or a okeanos with v2 upgrade. The latest okeanos has adjustable splash...
Lol sounds like me last night. I been getting consistent results. But I do get a misfire every other day or so I just make sure to reseat PTFE inserts and pins. Still learning this 8...
If you guys find issues using a Hercules on the 8. I recommend the following. Raise the top nuts/collars. Lock the desired height with the bottom nut/collar. Jam them against eachother so the height don't love. Make sure the Hercules is tight on the the 8. After you feel contact give it a extra...
