Lime Cream came from Ahlusion as a recommendation from Tyleris, and it is fantastic. Wow. No steep and the taste and smell couldn't be more fresh. Great vape.
Do it Kat!

ID, I'm so happy you are enjoying the Lime Cream! They have the BEST Lime flavor & I knew they could create a great mix with their cream, so I special requested it one day and that is how Lime Cream was born. :D

Unless they made vast improvements to the Diver for the V2 , you should have really considered a Sofia.

Oh, dear, like we aren't all going to end up owning 2 or 3 of each...

So many addictions in this thread, we could start a self-help group right here on ECF!

P.S.: Your posts in the Provari forum were the reason I picked up my first R/NR device, the Dripper Pro, way back in May when I first started vaping. So if I make you get a v2, it will be sweet, sweet revenge. :evil:

hey everyone....i spent quite a bit of time on the Vapourart website last night debating whether to get the PAPS X and a Spheroid..
SOMEHOW.....for now, reason won and I still have my outstanding balance from 3 days ago...LOL...i have a real question for u folks...

Please chime in with your build experience...
How are you building dripper quad coils for maximum wire temp and quickest heating time? I'm finding that quad coils take too long to heat up, and have a noticeable voltage drop using .5 ribbon 3 wraps per coil (.3ohm total), or 28 awg 4 wraps per coil (.25ohm)....
every time i end up going back to duals using .7 or .8 ribbon or 29awg....its lightning fast....
anyone have suggestions for building efficient quad coils? batteries on hand are good- MNKE 18650, AW 18650 1600mah (over 20amps)

Had a Vapour Day of a different sort yesterday :)

Apart from getting a 22mm SNP in anticipation of getting a Paps 2.5 I also got delivery of a Spheroid from a deal in the German classifieds... So, SP # 998 checked in and I'm happily vaping away! :vapor:

I also pulled the trigger on a full GP Paps 2.5 Set (classies again) with 3 Tubes and a Lux Button Replacement, which should arrive soon.

I'm off travelling on business now for a couple of days, so looking forward to come back to two packages that should make me a full member of the Big Happy GP community :D

I think you did wise actually, friend :) my order placed on the 7th shipped on 13th. And after 10 days I still don't have the juice, tracking# or Grant's replies to my e-mails ;)

Wow that's terrible. I'm giving it the 14 day wait til I email him. So a couple days and I'll start getting worried. He usually is very good about responding. Hmmm.

Grant is a very nice gent, maybe your order is missed or the postal service delayed somehow. It is a good idea to contact him, he responds quickly and at least you'll know what is happening. For me, it is always a pleasure to deal with him and I feel honored to be one of his vendors.

Not sure what's wrong but I'm pretty sure it will get resolved somehow :) The main news is that I'm soon to be a proud owner of PAPS X so everything else is secondary! ;)

Silly noob question for you experienced PAPS X users...

I took mine completely apart yesterday to give it a nice deep cleaning. When I put it back together, I noticed that the silver plated screw on the firing button turns when I turn the switch on & off. It's supposed to do that, right? I never really paid much attention to it before, and I just want to make sure I put it back together correctly.

Thanks in advance!

Yeah I noticed once in awhile I have way too much play when locking and unlocking the switch. Just hold the button in and make sure you tighten down the screw in there til it sits against the bottom and you're back in business.

Yes P I have dealt with Grant a bunch of times and he is a great guy. I'm sure it's the postal service or customs holding it up. I'll give it til Monday and then contact Grant.

Are you saying the screw shouldn't spin then? I just never noticed or looked before. It seems that if the screw spins every time I lock or unlock the button, it just rubs on the bottom of the battery and would wear the coating off.

The screw doesn't touch the bottom of the battery during the locking-unlocking operation, except if you keep the button pressed on purpose and I can't imagine, why someone would want to do that.

I don't think it spins when locking or unlocking. I think that as you keep doing it the screw naturally comes a little loose eventually and you need to tighten her up every so often. At least I do......maybe it's while using it and taking a drag it may turn the button a little so it kind of turns that screw in there. That's my guess.

When you tighten the screw, give a quick quarter of a turn more and I don't thing it will loose again. The same applies every time we want to tighten/unscrew a metal part, a sudden turn is enough.
