Anyone know where I can get the KISS AC v1 (or Alpha Globe) using PayPal or Interac Online?
puffitup.com might be worth checking out, they have many payment options like a money order that might fit your needs.

Good luck with PayPal, you won't likely find many companies in this industry using them to process payments. :2c:

Any reason why? Is PayPal against these types of businesses or something?
I use PayPal for all my online shopping. It provides a second level of protection between a company and my credit card. Plus it helps people who don't have a credit card for whatever reason.

Anyway, it looks like Puffitup accepts PayPal so I'll just use them.

What's the spec differences?

If i already own a persei and 2 8's what sorta compelling reasons might I have to upgrade?
Sorry for missing this post earlier.

I've got 3 Persei and an 8 and I still used my previous gen Omicron when I wanted something to put in my pocket. I usually keep a Hercules and Nibbler XL on a Persei and don't want to put that in my pocket so the Omicron is still something I use. Even V3 Omicron are underpowered with sub ohm coils compared to the Persei and 8, and I found myself using a box mod with a Gen 3 KISS cart in my jacket.

Well that changed when I got the Omicron V4 since its a variable wattage battery. The new Omicron battery is much smaller and even easier to use than my box mod. It has 4 settings and the first two, 10w and 13w work great for me with the dual coils & 1701. It recharges via micro USB and its 18mm internal battery powers the included Alpha Centauri system & Gen 3 KISS carts beautifully. Plenty of power on tap, I only use 10 and 13 watts - I don't bother with the higher temp settings, too hot for me to handle. I like terrrrps!

I've been liking 13w a lot too for the dual coil, maybe 14w if it's older. I still find myself going back to 7.4 on the persei though since my box mods are iffy with the ac coils sometimes. I'm looking forward to using the omicron for events and stuff. Can't wait to get the v2 ac, the ac and herc are the only oil stuff I use anymore.

Also I've heard countless stories of paypal holding people's funds and often just basically keeping people's money. Not all of them are bullshit either.

Thank you for posting that .

But since cannabis is now legal in some states , and hopefully
more states to come soon . Vaporizers aren't really considered
as drug paraphernalia , but more of medical devices . I wonder if
Paypal is reconsidering that policy . Think of all the on-line purchases
that could be made in Colorado for recreational weed . They're gonna
be missing out on some Legal revenues ...

Your best choice is PuffitUp for sure. If you do ever need to make an online credit card purchase, you can always use a virtual credit card like Entropay or even one of those prepaid credit cards you can get at the drug store or convenience store. Like Paypal, this also adds a second level of protection.

Until cannabis is federally legal, they won't do it. At this point banks cannot even take dispensaries money and taxes have to be paid in cash at the end of the month. Federal law will set precedent and PayPal does not want to take on the federal government just to take money for pipes.

I also don't like to use the term legal; people are still being arrested and prosecuted in Colorado for cannabis.

Really? For what? Growing and selling illegally or selling to minors? No way they're getting arrested for simple possession or lawful sale..

Possession of a plant, no matter the quantity should not be a crime. If you grow 13 plants, you are in violation. If you carry 31 grams, you are in violation. People are still being prosecuted for non violent, victimless crimes IN "LEGAL" STATES.

I will call it legal when it grows next to my tomatoes and I can share my crop with others without fear of losing my freedom. Until then they can pull all this out from under you and charge you federally or even with state charges since they made the limits just low enough to screw growers for overages.

Paypal's policy is somewhat disingenuous .
Because I've used paypal in Canada to make purchases from
PV and PIU . I've also used my bank ( National ) to buy
Medical MJ from a dispensary with the word MJ in the address .
So it's not a definitive out-right ban for all , and some rules may have to be amended .

Bottom Line = $$$ ( that may play the biggest factor , US and Canada )

So I just came into a HVD top (w9 you guys are amazing!) and I had a few questions about it.

Is the only way to run it at 7v with the core or is there a batterie that can run it at the higher voltage? I only have the standard 2.5 body.

Also, I found that it runs my kiss globe hotter than my other omi top, am I just crazy or is this actually happening?

Does this include the people that received an Omicron v2.5 for free in your promotion?

@THC SCIENTIFIC @SamuraiSam

You guys should contact the guys at Evolvapor and create your own boxmod using their chips. They're 100% USA designed and manufactured and they make the best chips on the market.

Would be pretty cool to have a w9tech temp control mod using the DNA200 or something designed perfectly for an ACv2.

I don't know how financially viable that is for you guys but I thought I'd throw the suggestion out there.

Just in time! My V4 battery died last night.

My battery arrived with issues as well. I have managed to get 2 good uses out of it though and enjoyed it.

Jake at Puff It Up has been really helpful through the whole process.

Looking forward to the replacement so I can get to know the v4 better.

I have some questions, I will be doing some research but figured I would just ask here. Lots of options on things, and in general I am just not that familiar with wax pen stuff, so it's all a bit headscratching :huh:

What atomizers are compatible with this? https://www.w9tech.com/vaporizer-ca.../kiss-cartridge-grade-2-titanium-gen-3-black/

Or is that more of a one and done type of thing? Like once that "cart" is fried, it's fried? Honestly, its so cheap which is the only reason I'm confused, if it was a bit more I'd assume it was replaceable atomizer. Couldn't find a great picture though.

Do I need a filling tool to fill that? Last time I was looking at w9 tech stuff, those carts were much thinner looking so I could understand it, but by appearance don't know if I will or not.

I'm thinkin about getting that or the Alpha Centauri. I assume they'd both work fine with my 510 threaded box mods. Any suggestions for wattage? I also have a temp control mod, I probably won't be using it for wax, but I could theoretically use it with these atomizers right?

The centauri appeals to me cause I like the doughnut designs...if I could get a doughnut though and just through it in a Kiss cart that would be ideal

Looking to get something this week, so I can have it for when I go out of town for Easter :)

@HellsWindStaff the KISS Cartridge you linked is indeed a one-and-done type thing, a disposable cartridge that can't have its heating element interchanged.

To fill it depends on the type of concentrate you're using. Solid stuff can be dropped in easily from above due to the wide open wide mouth design. Sticky stuff can be wiped with the right technique against the wall just above the coil, but my favorite method is to hold it with a tool just above the coil, then use a small butane flame and lick my titanium dabber with it lightly until the oil falls off the dabber onto the coil.

The Alpha Centauri V1 standalone kit, and Alpha Centauri V2 that's included with the Omicron V4 can be considered a changeable-coil version of the Gen 3 KISS cart in one regard, and that is because the single-coil and dual-coils used in the KISS carts are the same as are used in the AC coils with regards to wick, wire, and construction. Yes, both versions would work fine with a box mod; if you choose the Omicron V4, it's easy to interchange the AC v2 onto a different device in case you want to charge up your Omicron battery and keep vaping. I've also found myself using the Gen 3 KISS on the Omicron V4 since it holds a bit more- why not?

For wattage we suggest always starting low & working your way up, up to a maximum of 10 watts on single coils and 13 watts on dual coils. As far as temperature control goes, that's totally up to your particular mod and its ability to TC our Grade 2 Ti coils can't be guaranteed on our end.

Regarding your final wish to have the doughnut design inside a KISS Cart, I've addressed this issue in depth on Reddit and would welcome you to read some of my personal thoughts on the subject here: https://www.reddit.com/r/portabledabs/comments/45tkzg/any_one_try_the_kiss_alpha_centauri/
