You're suppose to let it dry? He!!, I always wipe it out with a q-tip :facepalm:

Good to know!

Well, I suppose wiping it out with a Q-tip is quicker, although it doesn't take very long at all, with 99% anyway. I can't attest to 91% but can't imagine that taking very long either, unless there's a pool (with either).

Was there ever a beauty ring designed/sold for the PV-1?

No, Not that I know of...

But, there were several made for the ProVari.

Pictured below are three that I have handy...

Question for Classic users.....

Anyone having an issue with their battery gauge showing full until the battery is almost empty?

Here we go again.... I had the same issue with my Radius.

I am hoping that it is just a 18350 thing and will watch it with 18500 and 18650 batteries as well.

In any case, vaped it all day, noticed the battery meter didn't move, removed and reinstalled the battery and off go the battery warning lights with the gauge showing only one bar.

I have no problems with my P3's but this is starting to drive me crazy!

Any thoughts? Is there a Classic update I might have missed?

Thx!

I run my Classic in 18350 mode most of the time, battery graph goes slowly down till the low battery blinky thing happens. I'm wondering how old your cells are?

The one in question isn't that old, but is an eFest, so I will try it out today with Samsungs and LGs.

I only run AW's in both my P3 and Radius. Maybe get yourself a couple AW's and see if that helps you.

Another thing I am wondering, have you done a routine cleaning and thread lube recently?
Good point.

Never. It is new and I have only had it a month or so.

What is a good alternative to the recommended lube from ProVape? Living in Canada, paying $35 shipping for a $3 tube of lube doesn't make sense unless I can pair it with a large purchase.

Do you get raped on Amazon shipping too?

Do you have any good friends who live in the US, who may travel to your neck of the woods?

Don't laugh, but I used to use Vaseline as a thread lube on flashlights and my mods when I started vaping. It cleans off easily with alcohol, and will help keep down oxidation. A tiny dab will do the trick.
