Feeling a little disappointed right now. As I’ve mentioned before, this is my favourite vape. I love the incomparable convection with great extraction in a dyna form factor.
That being said, damn these bloody visual indicators! It came working perfectly, and I stupidly did a double burn off in the wand which massively over-compressed the spring.
After some helpful tips from Brenyo, I was able to disassemble, fiddle with the spring and put it back okay, it just didn’t work like it used to, getting stuck on middle VI during cool-down.
Got 2 new springs and they don’t seem to be working either, so not sure where I’m going wrong. Meticulously followed the manuals instructions for the install. Think I overtightened one of my new springs before putting it in, but the second one went in perfectly.
After a little fiddling with the 2nd spring, it now doesn’t heat up properly, getting stuck on the VI marker during heat up.
When the VI and click housing is loose from the tempest, both springs seem to work perfectly! Which is so frustrating
I think someone mentioned they buffed their housing and that fixed a similar issue? I’ve looked for dirt or anything that could be getting in the VI’s way and don’t think there is. I’ve used the tool that comes with the case to scrape the housing as well and pretty sure there’s nothing blocking it.
All this being said, it really only affects a reheat whilst the clickers haven’t cooled down, and with the wand most bowls are mindless with timeout, not needing the clickers or VI, but still…
Rant over. Gonna go have a bowl with this marvellous (-Ly frustrating!) vape.
