that is so it can be moved to various positions and remain plugged in.... and also so the wire can come up from behind a table.exit said:Is anyone else's AC connector a tiny bit wiggly?

The NO2 is an efficient vape... one of my most efficient, and I use it daily. Considering the choices at my disposal, and what I have disposed of already, the fact that I and so many others use it every day says much about it!ktx49 said:..... had two NO2 units and neither smelled out of the box....it very well could be something we are doing to them and not some inherent flaw or herpes infection as you put it.

Make sure it's 12 volts center positive and it will work fine.

I am returning this new smelly unit along with the one that doesn't smell and using the money to buy a MFLB. Not going to chance inhaling melting chemicals and am returning it while I still can. I'd like to think I've learned some sort of lesson from all of this but since I'm just going to order another vaporizer online I'm sure that I haven't.
Don't mean to be contradictory here but after taking this thing apart and examining where the temp sensor sits there is absolutely NO DANGER in turning the unit on with the top offVitolo said:lazy912-
Soak tube in hot (not boiling) water for 5 minutes before using (then rinse)
Let unit charge fully before using.
while it is charging the 1st time.. leave the top off- this will give it time to air out.
Dont use the unit until after unit has been charged.
NEVER
Never turn on heat with unit open.(top off)
Never try to heat unit to max to "burn off" odors.. Odors are not "baked off".. but rather "baked on"!!
Do not heat unit with herb already in chamber.
Do not reheat a load. If unit is off.. empty load to reheat the NO2
After this you will not have to worry about odors.
Use included brush after each load to clear dust from chamber... and the top screen, and as with any vaporizer, keep the oils clean where the tube meets the unit so oils dont gather, run down, and slow down the works.
Trouble?.... Let me know!

i agree that you sbouldn't open the top and use the No2 to heat your room but your original statement makes it sound like having it on at all with the top open will somehow compromise your unit and that just isn't true, the sensor recieves no more fresh air than when it's closed and the wear from the heat loss and resulting bounceback isn't nearly as much as the cooling/reheating that taking even one hit causes. Obviously you shouldnt run your unit for 10 minutes with the top off (why would you anyway?) But id be pretty confident that even if you did, it wouldnt do much to your unit.....just sayinVitolo said:Having spoken with Vapir Engineers and techs myself, I can tell, you there is a definite danger.
You risk wearing out your unit in less time than it's life expectency.
When you turn on your unit with the top off.. the sensors will work continually without break... because with the top off, the unit and the sensor are cooling as the heater is fighting to stay at temp.
It is like turning on an electric floor heater in a room, and setting the thermostat to 80....
.... and then leaving all outside doors and windows open- Eventually you will kill the heater!
Common sense!
Everyone please read your manual.
