I have dumb luck!


People criticized me for being so redundant.
However when a drive motor would fail or a bearing shatter I as operational in 30 minutes.

With you there, I'll take dumb luck and treachery every time.

I also agree, spares on hand have a way of keeping the failures under control. OTOH, getting exposed is inviting Murphy......and he drinks.....

Well.. damn.. my Solo died :(.................:(

Can I make a silly suggestion if I may ?

Now, this worked for me on my early Solo (m105) and multiple ecigs that were giving me battery grief.... Try having the charger already plugged in, THEN plug the Solo in.

As I said, it has worked for me in the past, it's free to try, and ya just never know.

@Jab sorry to hear man :(

I'm always considering buying a 2nd one for backup when I see the massdrop sales but being in Europe I mostly shy away from it because in case of problems it's such a hassle to have to send it back, re-import, etc :spidey:

Also from what I picked up in the thread the support has to go over massdrop / the place you bought and that doesn't make it faster.

If only prices here were so good as over the pond... :doh:

Hi, my solo has just stopped working on me :(

Its quite a new unit, I put it to charge the last couple hours, it was fully charged and I removed it from charging to use, It turned on fine then while heating up suddenly it started alternately blinking the idle and 7 lights, I then tried to reset it (3 times) by pressing both buttons for 4s while plugged in and leaving it for 10s before removing the charger, but this hasnt helped, any idea how to fix this? Hopefully I can avoid a return to US from UK and being without for so long.

The number does not make a difference!

Everything made has some degree of imperfection.
It does not matter if it was made in ASIA, CANADA or the USA.
Quality Assurance varies from factory to factory regardless of the Country or company.
In the future I will buy a third SOLO or any other vaporizer with a warranty for a few more dollars.

I see people going broke buying bargains!

Sorry to hear. Your story sounds similar to mine. And M1B1 too.

They're not model or serial numbers, true, but I figure they indicate production runs or batches? What's the point of stamping a completely random number on the bottom?

I know what you're saying, but on average I'd say Asian businesses are more likely to be focusing on cost efficiency while its Canadian counterpart differentiates on quality. A consequence of their respective business environments and what not :2c:

Well I ordered my solo from vapornation on Monday and was told everything was good. Was waiting to hear back with my tracking number so I emailed them this morning and they emailed me back saying everything was packed and ready to go and I would be getting my tracking number soon. Well I hadn't got another email from them so I tried to call. I was told that not only was my order not packed and ready to go but they were out of the black model. I decided to go with the sliver model and they gave me priority shipping free let's just hope I still get it by Monday.

The IPHONE is designed by APPLE (CALIFORNIA) however made in CHINA.
The SOLO (EVEN THE BEST ONES) are made in CANADA and no where near the quality of an IPHONE.

My point being regardless of where it's made don't try to save a couple of dollars at the expense of no warranty. It doesn't matter if its made in a foreign land or domestic.:2c::2c::peace:

Well sure -- I did say on average. Examples can be found on both ends of the curve. I'm just saying more of them are on one half rather than the other :D I'm not saying one should let that drive individual buying decisions though.

I missed the part about the no-warranty? I would surely pay a couple bucks more if that'd get me a warranty I'd otherwise miss out on.

Just made a vape spliff! A must try for those that use e-cigarettes and e-juices. I packed my bowl up 1/3 the way, dropped 3 drops of my max VG blend vanilla butternut ejuice in a triangular shape, put glass piece to mouth (still upside down as if packing) and pulled the juice through the nug as high VG blends just float on the surface, packed the rest of the bowl placed 2 more drops dead center and pulled again. After packing I cranked my vape to my preferred temp of 4, took an initial puff to start her up, and then it was ripping time. I would do this at your own risk and recommend not putting so much juice that it will leak into your unit, as a matter of fact I would keep it to 3, 5 was overkill. You just want the oil to sit inside your nuggets really. Some may say I spoiled the bud by adding drops that have flavor, I must admit I did, as this bud was citrus-y and the flavor added was vanilla, they clashed, had it been lemon or lime it would have been delish. I will be trying this again, it was definitely worth it.


PS - vapor clouds galore. Peace!

Ewwwww @ataxian look at all those gross little bits of flowers in your black Solo's stem!
Don't you ever get little shreds of weed in your mouth?
Stuff a little hat screen in there!

I need to find my bent SOLO stem and take a pic of it.
I stuffed a screen in the stem on day 1 and have not cleaned it since.
So much reclaim oil drips back down and gets vaped during my sessions!

My glass stems are normally crystal clear however I pulled out the stock stem that I haven't use for a couple of weeks since I received the PHVES stem. It has a screen installed however I see that I'm lagging big time.
Some guys can make a gram of flowers last a month? How? Why? Weird?
30 grams a month average for me?
What am I doing wrong?
Why am I so happy?

I only vaporized 0.8 gram today however the CO2 OIL made up the difference.
How do people do 1 gram a month?
I find that like someone who drinks a bottle of wine per month?

How do people do it?
I don't get it?

Hahaha, i love you go through this much and still call yourself a lightweight. Most people who smoke (not even vape) a fraction of what you vape wouldnt call themselves lightweights ;)

Heavy cannabis consumption club! :rockon:

My surfer buddies smoke about 20 grams a week. (TOP KOLAS)
I vaporize 30 grams a month!
So in my circle I'm a light weight.

When I was a kid it was normal to smoke about a OZ a week.

The vaporizers I have are good about not consuming so much.
Smoking you consume more of course.
However how do you even medicate properly with 1 gram per month?

I'm puzzled?

I would love to vaporize 60 grams per month however I have too many thing to do!
I'm down to 24 gram and feeling kind like I'm running out?
At least I have 2 grams of CO2 OIL to get by!

I know someone who goes through 3 grams in a month and he says he is at his highest consumption ever!
He vapes every day with an extreme q.
i laugh at him because his bags look full of air!!!

i don't understand it either!

i only truly quit combustion for vaping about half a year ago. i did vaping and combusting simoltaneously.
when i quit combustion i was easily smoking 20-25 grams a week.

Imo some ppl are just looking for that buzz while others enjoy the plateau. With plateau I mean the heavy high or body stone you reach when you can just keep going without getting higher/more stoned. You're just sustaining your plateau and enjoying the ritual :nod:

@king krish just cause I can ask not that it really matters was yours from the mass drop batch as well?

Im nt sure if it was, I bought it from ebay seller golfmeister at the end on October. Who honors the warranty, but not sure if this problem is fixable myself or needs replacing?

Edit: I tried plug it in again this morning and now it blinks idle, 1, 2 and 3 together.

You said it.

Why is it that there are almost no big online EU stores? Where are the Neweggs and Bestbuys of Europe? Or even the Massdrops?

Or am I just ignorant?
