    My First Mod (wood, Gripper guts)

    Thank you all for the comliments. It was fun to make. Maybe I will make another if I find a piece of wood. I was thinking of maybe going down to the river to see if I could find the right piece of drift wood?? Smuro, I used a dremel.

    My First Mod (wood, Gripper guts)

    Well, I managed it. 8>) I isn't perfect, but it was not a perfect piece of wood to begin with. Just a block of wood I found down in the basement. I Don't even know what kind of wood it is. 18650 battery with a 'Gripper' board in it. I got a really good button, best I've felt on a PV. Easy to...

    Which glue for door magnet (on wood)

    I am trying my hand at making this wood mod. Almost ready for the reveal here. I read a bunch of threads on here about the magnets but didn't see any that said what glue people were using on them. I was thinking epoxy but would super glue work on wood? P.S. glad I read those threads. It...

    Parts, where to get them?

    Where is the sticky that tells different places to get parts like switchs. Good parts that is. I am making a new box (wood) for my Gripper guts and I want to put a switch in it that doesn't click. Recommendations? Thank you, JR

    Putting 'Gripper guts' in a wood mod?

    I read a thread where people were putting the guts of a 'Gripper' in tin mods. In the original and in the tin mods the pictures showed that they used hot glue to hold the electronic (buttons, LED, etc.) in place. If I used wood, could I, should I, use hot glue to hold that in place? Thank you, JR

    Gripper audible hmmmm

    I got my Gripper on Monday. It worked great for a day, then it developed an audible hmmm when vaping. I read a lot about the Gripper on here before buying and do not recall reading anything about such an issue. As a matter of fact I don't remember reading anything about an audible hmmm issue on...

    Gripper Discussion

    Why does the gripper create so much more vapor on a lower setting that other PVs? I have another very good 'P''V' I use it at 4.4 volts most of the time. If I am using it on 4.4 volts, take that tank off and put it on the Gripper and vape at 3.7 volts. I get at least as much if not more...

    Gripper VV, Just how loud?

    The only thing keeping me from buying the Gripper VV is that every one that talks about it mentions how loud the click is when you push he button to use it. They all say it is not a stealth PV. I don't need a 'stealth' PV, but I don't think I want one that a person on the other side of the room...

    My SR cartos are here!

    I have found nothing as good as a Standard Resistence carto in a tank on my ProVari. I have tried a lot of things too. I have not tried a bottom feed yet though.

    Boge knockoffs?

    Thank you acolyte. I don't know that I meant for that post to sound as negative as it did. Even if I used one a day I would still be saving a lot of money from when I was smoking 2+ packs a day. Maybe I did get part of that bad batch you were talking about. What do you think about the pricing...
