GP Series by VapourArt - Official Thread for GP Spheroid, GP PAPS, X, GP Piccolo, GP SnP and more - Part 3

Yes, it is.
1) Place the Spheroid in your freezer for 15 minutes. You should be able to twist it off thereafter.
2) Before assembly next time kindly lube up the O-rings with a chapstick. In fact do so every time you wash any atty.

Yup coz even in the reference video, they remove it and i just couldn't take it off. Will try your method. Thanks.

Success in first built. Thought it'd leak on me, but thanks Q. Followed your tutorial.

28 gauge Kanthal, 7 wraps on 2.4mm with organic cotton = 1.4ohms

Not the best coz when i take a longer direct lung hit, get slightly burnt taste of cotton. But happy and shall try better. Perfect for M2L right now.

 

[perseas]

Perhaps your cotton is too dense, if you adjust it, no leaking or dry hits.

Just got my Heron v2 today. And I can't get the drip tip off either. I'll put it in the freezer as Qorax suggested above, but I have another problem: I ordered the Ultem tank as well and can't for the life of me get the top polished part of the tank off. Is it supposed to screw or pull off? Won't budge. Help!

CONGRATS!
Use a ballpoint pen -- one end held firmly on the table - and the tip end inserted into the chimney shaft. Gently push it out of the tank.
*Next time, while assembling everything, pls ensure to lube up all the O-rings well.

 

[Vaper Bob]

It worked! Whew! Pushing not so gentle though. Will lube up as you suggest. Many thanks Q.

Love the new tank P, went back to the verticle coil because I'm now using titanium wire and it needs to be longer, also back to the two hole top cap and its wicking perfect, now I can see the bubbles and know it's feeding both holes properly. Love this setup!

 

[qorax]

Hope you like it folks!


Ps: Pls give it some time, it is in HD

Anyone know what's going on with GVC? I haven't seen him have a sale in 2016 and this morning his website appears to be gone.

EDIT: Now the site seems to be back online. But still... no sale this year?

My GP Spheroid v4 arrived!

The shipping was unbelievably fast. Only 3 days from Bulgaria to Colorado. I'm speechless!

Beautifully crafted piece and I'm dialing it in.

So far, so good.

Thank you Captain Stan! You rock again

Thank you for the feedback! Qorax's vertical build is very efficient indeed.

Yes I noticed it too, my GVC supplies are low, hmm ...

 

[perseas]

Starting from this Vapourday, we shall offer the option to buy a Spheroid, a Heron, a Piccoloid or a HnP with an Ultem tank instead of a SS one.

Actually P I meant back to horizontal... But anyways I'm getting liquid pooling under my drip tip and eventually ending up in my mouth. So obviously I'm over wicking but I can't possibly squeeze anymore cotton in the coil or through the holes in the top cap. Any advice on a solution? I've tried all I know.

Do you have over wicking with the updated topper or with the first one? The new topper is very efficient in handling this issue.

The first one, ok so I'll switch to the updated version.

I believe he had one in early January, I was able to score a bottle. But I haven't looked since actually.

Perseas, I've been using my new Heron v2/Ultem with the older double hole topper on my Paps 4 for much of this past week. It was so solid, reliable and absolutely leak free, that I was about to order a Piccoloid to carry around as my portable in-the-pocket vape, something I would never do unless I used a readymade coil. And then the problems started. Out of the blue I started to get heavy leaking during a bout of heavy vaping (usually the result of watching a gripping TV episode!). So the next day, I cleaned up, re-filled and started again. Now I was getting dry hits. Everything seemed fine with the wick. I had originally wicked using Qorax's video as a reference. So I replaced the topper with the newer single hole version, re-wicked using Qorax's new topper video as a guide again, and.......still dry hits. I checked and juiced up the wick again. This time it was fine, but I guess only until I dried/vaped out the wick and then dry hits again.

What's going wrong? Is my wick too long? Too dense? FYI I'm using 70 VG juice and cotton. Seek your comments and advice.
