I bought my unit from Xvape directly. I have tried transparent double-sided tape, which worked for a short while. But the magnet is still too strong, and the tape between the magnet still gets loose and the magnet isn't able to stay in the housing, and it comes out and sticks to the base of the mouthpiece. I'll write to support@xvape.com and share my issue with them and see what they say.
Thanks @vapviking; I will also try that!
Do a burnoff 6min session at max temp, let cool, clean with alcohol. Repeat 3 times. Then take apart and let air out overnight.
I would do another burn off set and see. If that doesnt do it, i would wipe all the plastic/silicone pieces with a baking soda paste, rinse and dry thoroughly and let air overnight.
That's how I use the v3 pro. The roffu rips too much for me at 220 for the first cycle and you lose some flavor. I run one at 205 with great taste and vapor than cash it at 220.
Are you saying the vapor has a rubbery chemical flavor? Or are you saying the unit just smells that way?
Alternately if you have a second heater screen/disk use it on top of the bowl and discard the grommet/screen and it prevents the center browning spot in top of the bowl. I use a mesh screen in the grommet for better air flow and the silicone grommet doesn’t seem to bother me, but I’m not everybody.
Where did you get a hold of the stainless steel mesh? I've got some capsules on the way and want to minimize how many components I'm using. I imagine the metal chamber with no screen, capsule, and then glass WPA as mouthpiece? Plastic grommet removed, maybe a screen between the mouthpiece and the capsule?
What I wonder is if it would make a good seal on a mesh screen on top instead of the grommet. You also need a few mm...maybe with a reversed custom bent cup screen ? The capsule without the screen under works well as it is.
The smell seems to come from the black silicone (x2) in the cooling unit. White vinegar and water 50/50 and soak for an hour, rinse and repeat the black silicone parts until neutral.
The ones I use (DDave aftermarket Ti and S/S) are for the Dynavap and are around 8.1mm (OG DV Ti= 8.15mm, S/S=8.22mm).
I'm confused about why you're leaving that grommet in there if you're using dosing caps? What is it sealing? If there's no screen in the grommet, and you're using caps, then the grommet is pointless.
It seals the top of the capsule to the bottom of the glass WPA if it is being used to improve flavour by removing the large silicone seal from the vapor path.

Best to do the initial burn-offs without the CU attached as you just suck all the vapor into the parts you are trying to 'cure'.
Do the vinegar/water first then for good measure to get rid of the vinegar smell, you can make a paste with bi-carb/water to smear over the parts (I just made up the slurry/paste in a plastic test tube) and leave them overnight.
I haven't noticed a smell or taste weirdly and that's coming from the Angus which has sublime flavour imo. Taste is still good with the SS bowl but if I'm in it for the flavour I'll always use the Angus tbh.
On my setup without the to grommet the capsule is rattling and gets lifted when drawing keeping it far from the heater and really less efficient. I don't know if it's the distance and/or lack of seal but definetly not satisfying.
The Roffu CU will sit up a tiny bit if you leave the oven disc in when using the dosing caps but it still seals just fine.
True, I forgot about that as another reason for using the grommet.
I keep the grommet in the Cooling Unit to get a good seal on the top of the glass chamber. Also with out the grommet the Dosing Capsules can be sucked up into the Cooling Unit. This is how I do it....but everyone has thier own way.
