    penelope numbers jumping around

    This was happening to me for a while. I had a few coils, and on the underside, the coils were so close that if they touched, there was a dramatic change in resistance. This is amplified by the effor to make the coils loose, since when you up the "looseness" there is more "travel" in the coils...

    Penelope vapor production

    That is the most likely solution. For other reasons I have started using Nextel instead of silica wicks. If it is not over wicking, shout out and I could point you to some Nextel sourcing and advice. I'm really appreciating the Nextel switch.

    Penelope First Look

    Indeed. Two silver NR bits of 4-5 cm, single 4-5 bit of nichrome in between. Meticulous twisting, but videos are available on YouTube.

    Is this normal for a Provari?

    Just a follow up. There was much discussion of me paying to send back the defective until, but I short circuited this by simply returning it and buying a new one. Love it, of course. Standard provari E1 annoyances still apply, but all it well.

    So Imeo, the two sizes are for thickness, but in a pinch, it looks like there is no reason to worry about using the slim nut for both, yes? In other words, if it fits into whatever screws down on it, it's ok? I could use the slim on both with no bad effect?

    Except for Imeo, since coming from him it wouldn't really qualify as a "theory" per se...

    I guess I have to know what role those nuts serve to answer the question. The drip mode nut seems to be almost optional. Perhaps it does hold the position of the rebuildable part relative to the base, but the base is pretty darn secure with o-ring pressure. On the short mode, it seem to only be...

    Ody Drip Mode atty vs. Ody Short mode. They use a different part for the "Upper Connection Nut" but they are both nuts that screw down on the rebuildable part, which is the same for both devices. What is the difference between the nuts? Will the drip nut work for the short-mode Ody? Will the...

    Is this normal for a Provari?

    I contacted provape about this issue. They were nice, and told me to send it to them (at my expense) and sent it back saying everything was ok. Just bought a Mini and it was DOA. No response at all. They asked me to send it back to them (at my expense). Color me jaded, but I am a little...

    Line v2 no resistance between the posts? Internal short?

    Naked DID: Provari: "OP" (open) lavatube: "9.99" Naked Line: Provari: "LO" lavatube: "0.00" By naked I mean no juice, wire, or wick.

    Line v2 no resistance between the posts? Internal short?

    I may be missing something, but with an empty Line with no wick or coil, there should be infinite resistance between the long and short silver posts. I get none. Well, a little, .2-.5 ohms, but it should be infinite, yes? Can the positive post be shorted against the case? I see the insulation...

    imeo, have you ever tasted Johnson Creek Original? I finally have. Been vaping it almost exclusively for a couple of months (out of tank cartos, etc.). Assembled my new Odysseus drip mode tonight. My first rebuildable and I am fortunate that it was yours. Tasted my JC juice for the first time...

    what flavour for menthol smoker

    The folks at johnson creek make a dangerously good variety of menthol-friendly vapes. I can stomach much other than the JC these days. 9 weeks in btw.

    House of Hybrids featuring the Zenesis PV

    Simply beautiful. Although pics would flatter. No hope, huh?

    Thanks, me too. I know it is a confusing time for them, but it's hard to sit and look at this beautiful paperweight! Perhaps I will hear back from them in the next few (long) days.

    Ever seen a grown man cry? My first rebuildable arrived today... a shiny new Ody (Drip Mode). But alas, no wick, no wire. Cannot use. I even checked the seams and crevices of the packing material. Nope. Sigh.

    Guys - how do you carry around your e-cig and supplies

    Worried about snapping connectors etc., I bought a couple of cheap cigar tubes. Amazon has a million of them. Note the "gauge" of cigar it will hold, divide by 64, and that is the width of mod in inches it will hold. Makes even less-pocketable mod/tank combos a little more pocketable. When a...

    Rattle inside my new provari when I touch the button? Concerned

    I contacted Provape, and they had me send it back and they sent one in return. Not sure if it is the same one (repair) or a new one, but they did resolve it. They told me it is an adhesive that can come loose, and if it does, it rattles. But they took care of me when I emailed them. It has...
