did you return the device/talk to either ghost or vapecritic? I would think that would be the next step
I honestly lost my trust. I think sending it for inspection of any sort is just biased already for me. I would totally go with a trusted FC member's independent opinion, or more likely to meet and I could show it. Its appropriate right here to express my gigantic THANK for all the support and backup I've got in here, on FC! Both as comments and PMs, many people showed their support and sympathy, along with a few who tried their new vape the same way I did, and confirmed me. I just cannot say how cool this feels.
So it still does offgassing, but not far now to burn it out completely, in ratio to the heat-ups I've done already - kept observing with lights and I'm positive it still ongoing but not for long now. However I'd like to keep it this state, so if any more proof needed I can still provide. However I'd like to emphasize to please see my video with a very critical eye, such as:
-if fake, what could possibly produce those fumes? How can someone forge a slow, steady, thin, whiteish-blueish stream of fumes so evenly? Hair (pubice or not), tobacco, plastics or oils of some sort will all produce significantly more smoke, as ignition points are way lower than glowing coil's output.
-User already have these kind of vids on his channel, and other vapes in his videos are already heavily documented for offgassing.
-Is any trusted and reliable FC member posted a fresh out of box unit filmed and tested the same way?
I mean I would probably be sceptic (especially that they probably well prepare every units before postage from now on
) but still...
TBH other than words I'd love to see another video on the subject with either confirming or disproving mine.
On the other hand, remember my tweaks:
-You may assemble the top heat exchanger without the ceramic cylinder, for hotter vapor, but no scratching glass against the ceramic. You may also put a tinfoil lining inside the cylinder, so glass can slide on, but ceramic is protected. Dont cover the two tiny holes. Or wait for new mouthpieces, without the rims, so will not rub. Still wobbling around a bit probably, but not as close to ceramic as before.
-It is probably worth to be used as an "unregulated" convection unit, to avoid overheating. As per promise, this will be solved with an app.
The situation I got in leaves me no choice but to keep this vape, so as of a next step I am thinking about to make two oval steel rings, precisely matching the size of the silicon parts in question, and covering them off heat. Not rocket science.
