The grey one was out of stock after I made the order. So went ahead with red. Loving it so far!
I was surprised to see the LCD logo stating 'Evolv dna' though when I press the vape button.
I noticed two things about the 510 connector when looking/testing... the width of the center pin and I could just barely see the black silicone spacer under the top of the pin....normal 510's have the silicone spacer easily seen and protrudes noticibly around the pin....so tightening the topper down may allow the outer edge of the pin to short to the connector metal housing(threaded part at the base).
Warning to all. I've figured out, in part, what has happened with my dead silver cana from WV. So I dug out a boat load of hot glue from around the 510. I used my multi meter a few days ago and determined the center pin of the 510 connector was shorting to the 510 giving my a closed circuit, causing the check atomizer reading. Anyway got the glue out and found that the center pin is mobile and quite easily pushed down to far grounding to the 510. The center pin isn't tight at all and the only thing really holding it was a dab of hot glue. I pushed the center pin back up and reconnected the ground, which was in the way, and voila. My mod was working again. Now I have another glitch. Once everything is put together, it fires continuously. I figure there's a short somewhere at the fire button. I guess I'll dig into the firing buttons tomorrow. I'm hoping its some sort of short in the soldering on the fire button. Everything else works normally. I have 3 new 510 connectors on the way, I may need to get some replacement buttons coming, I'll decide that after I get all that hot glue dug out from around the firing button. Anyway guys please be careful about tightening your attys. I'm easy on my stuff, so these 510s are really weak. I did loan this mod to my buddy same day it died. He could have possibly been the culprit. I've seen lot of peeps really tighten their attys.
retird, based on the picture I saw on elev8vapes site. the new 510 connector looks like there is twice the space between the pin and the threadsMorning coffee and a..... quiet night around these parts...

Have a great day all....![]()
Yep... looks like they fixed it.... and you see that the insulator is protruding out past the center pin....should have been that way from the start... maybe all the vendors need to tell Cloupor and the other manufacturers to "recall" all the defective units for replacement...recalls happend all the time in the USA for safety reasons...1000's of these in the wild....retird, based on the picture I saw on elev8vapes site. the new 510 connector looks like there is twice the space between the pin and the threadsjob done!

pass out after a 16hr shift at the hospital.
Morning... coffee and a vape. Or for me... coffee, vape, and pass out after a 16hr shift at the hospital. Lots of new news overnight. Check out the newest elev8 update:

Also, one of my orders (2545) black/green just shipped from them. Im not sure if just the black shipped, or both. Either way, hopefully I get one of the updated units so I can compare for you.
With that said... good night all!

Having a great time with my 101vapes red unit, holding off on cancelling my elev8 order #33xx until I learn more about the less-cheap 510 connector they are using. Battery meter goes down faster than I'd like.

You know, for all of the ranting and raving and waiting and canceling and reordering in this thread, I found it surprisingly easy to simply buy one when I finally wanted it. Blue one ordered last night, shipped this morning. Paid the extra $5 for 2 days shipping so I should have it by Thursday.
Now comes the big question..... Since the shop just got the shipment in does it have the updated 510 connector? Will find out in a couple of days I guess.
I was under the impression that elev8 was the only one testing/replacing screws/ communicating with the suppliers on issues. I may be mistaken. it seems like elev8 has also placed the largest orders....
Cloupor claims that they have been making changes due to vendor feedback. now is that true? who knows, it is cloupor after all
