Yes, but our own schedule this time don't permit us to open 6 hours later and I got 6 hours earlier to make it easier for people in the States as I have posted a few days ago. There's always a next time
Measured three times. 1.10mm, 1.11mm, 1.09mm
You're saying unscrewing the positive post will create a more airy draw?
Unscrewing just a quarter of a turn, on a Provari yes, but not in this occurence.
Send an email to info(at)vapourart.com about that. Send me the bases back and I will replace the bases if you find the draw too tight. The air hole has a tolerance 1,17-1,26 mm.

You are very kind, I can assist you from now on without any omissions, promise
Scott's method was developed when GP Spheroid was introduced, but later the feedback of many users showed that it is easier to put the coil diagonally, it needs less adjustments for hot spots and the best wicking is by making a loop about 3.5 mm from the one side. In that way, you don't touch the wick during refilling and you have no dry hits, it is continuously feeding the coil with juice.
Watch the video I posted above, it is really easy.
I watched the video. Please keep in mind this is my first time when I start asking questions...
He said he torched the wick ahead of time?? Do I torch the silica or the wire or both? The silica looked real white for having been torched? This is where I just take a lighter to it, right?
Yes, he torched the wick to clean it from any bad taste. The wire can be passed over a lighter's flame quickly to get rid of its springless, it can be wrapped easier then. A torch is better from a lighter for the wick, because it develops 700-900 degrees C (you have to convert to Fahrenheit numbers) and torches the wick very efficiently and quickly. A lighter can do the same job, but needs more time due to its lower temperature. When you torch the wick, it becomes red momentarily and after the torching is white again.
It will make a difference definitely. I personally prefer the tight draw, but many people want a more airy one.
I have a torch I got from home depot. I'll use that. Thanks. I have to wait until Sunday when I have a day off and I am going to devote one hour to this. (fingers crossed) stay tuned!!

One hour. That's a very cute estimate.

Torching the wick for 1-2 minutes is enough and passing quickly over a lighter's flame the wire is all you need as preparation.
Perseas, question
I've been a long time user of the spheroids and as you know, one of your biggest fans.
I've been having some leaking on a couple lately and just thought you could list out all the possible reasons.
I'm posting because I thought this information might be helpful to all.
Thanks in advance!

Hello my friend
Yes, that is interesting indeed, from where does it leak?
Check the density of the fluff material, if it is too thin or too thick, it cannot hold the juice properly.
Are the o-rings in good shape?
Are all the parts of the atty well tightened in order to keep its internal pressure?
Have you cleaned the interior of the base recently?
Hi Perseas
I've also experienced some leaking on my new Spheroid V2 (the brushed scratch resistant finish). Well, it's only half a drop of liquid When I turn the tube upside down and fill it, this half drop of liquid comes out where the threads are. I screwed it tight using a t15 screwdriver. Also I've changed the o-ring with another from the spares that I got and it still leaks when I fill it. Maybe I haven't put enough fluff inside? Got today some Juwell filters and cut it to size so it makes 1.5 turns around the air tube. Don't know the exact dimensions, I'm too lazy to disassemble the Spheroid since it vapes excellent I just love the dense vapor BTW I'm using 90-95% VG, the rest is flavour.

Hello mate
The right amount of filler material in relation to PG-VG ratio is a critical factor. Not anybody uses the provided fluff material, many use blue foam, jewel filters, cotton hood filter etc. Spheroid can hold without leaking up to 3,2 ml 50/50 VG/PG filled with a syringe and the right quantity of fluff.
Blow from the 510 connection to remove the excess liquid that has been sitting inside the base, if you're feeling too lazy to open and clean it. Periodically you have to do it anyway, because the base works as liquid collector and the 510 pin has to be cleaned also to keep its 3 air holes open. It is a 5 minutes job

Well said perseas,i know i for one was intimadaded to take the base appart didn't want to mess it up.I did though with one of mine because it was missfiring.Wish i would have done it sooner very easy to take appart and clean inside
Mine now works as good as newi realy like the design no wires and very simple to clean up once you do it.When these are set up correct they are hands down my faves

I've taken the Juwell filter to test a new liquid, your fluff material is reserved for my all day vape
It's not leaking from the base side, but from the threads on the top side. Maybe a bigger o-ring should help. I will experiment with it
BTW to open the base, I need to put it in a cup with hot water? Whoever screwed it on must have been a beast
I can't open it and I know that I have to turn it clockwise.Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Tapatalk
So I won't have a chance to try and set mine up until tomorrow, but can someone provide me links for extra fluff and the same size silica that it comes with?
And my juice is 80/20...80 being pg. Is this going to be a problem?

This is one revision of the prototype units and changes have been made already to vent holes, finish etc but the overall shape remains the same.
The button has the known characteristic of all of our mods: soft push and small travel. There is no separate locking ring, it is embodied to the button, less parts equals with less wear of the switch under heavy use. We are testing now the unit's ability to stand upfront and unlocked without firing.
I didn't show yet the air control.
