Thank you very much mate
We hope to have it ready in 3-4 weeks.
if you don't mind me asking how many are going to be produced?
That is irrelevant, because we don't release the whole production in one batch.
We want to check the units and we support our customers better with many smaller batches than a huge one, at least till now.

Oh ya they are worth the wait they are my faves i have 3 and trying not to get more but they keep replacing my others!
3 spheroids arrived today, thanks for the speedy ship Perseas!
Having a little trouble though, I wrapped my coil the way Scott suggested in his video, but all I'm getting is a heavy wick taste. I re-wrapped at a lower Ohms (2.0 which is still rather high), and same thing. I filled it w/Bobas 18mg, which is on the thicker side, but supposed to be great on the spheroid.
I've wrapped several coils for my Penelope and drips, so I don't think it's bad coiling..
I'm wondering if I may have used too much/little of the spongey material? I basically cut the piece that came with the unit into thirds.. was that correct?
The 4 wicks (from the double wick method) measure 1/4" and seem to be getting saturated, but maybe they're cut too short?
Thanks in advance..

If you torch the wick first, it'll help with that wickie flavor a lot. Then the rest usually goes away pretty quick
Oh, and with the boba's, you really don't need a lot of filler. It's really thick.. Just a thin layer of filler once around the bell should be fine. It should absorb the liquid readily - otherwise it won't wick well.
With the spheroid, the amount of filler you use matters quite a bit.

True I have found too much to be more of a problem then not enough. I usually start with just a little wrapped around and if that is not enough I just stuff a little more in from the bottom side. I find this method tends to work the best for me.

Got an order in today. Thanks perseas. Im looking forward to a spheroid when they are back in stock.
I am reposting some helpful instructions about the setup of the Spheroid:
I would like to mention the lasso style by Alexmach, for the wick and I recommend the length of the wick to be equal to the diameter of the Spheroid, no more of 5 cm and no less than 3.5 mm. In that way, you have good wicking and no need to touch the wick during refill.
SS mesh for those who don't like SiO2 by Philip100
SS mesh for those who don't want aquarium wool by herby68 and implemented by Philips100.
60 cm (4x 15cm) #400 SS mesh. (2.2ml capacity).
The best way to avoid hot spots is to put the coil diagonally. (image by Maff)
And a technique for the cotton lovers by Vapid:
Here's one tip for twisted coils by Maff:
Pinch the two ends of wire between the thumbnail and finger. Get your allen key (used for opening the spheroid top cap). Stick it in the loop and twist the allen key.
It's so simple but the results are great.

The loop wick works great when i use thicker wick i do like pic at top 1 loop on 1 side,when using thinner wick i do a loop on bothe ends.Love my spheroids have 3 need more

This is an awesome post right here!! I love having all of that in one place!
I must say, being also a Zenesis fan, I love my PAPS. Such a terrific mod. I rarely put it down. GL
So torching the wick made a HUGE difference.. Great product Perseas!
One more question.. how often should I change out the filler material? So far I've just added a couple different flavors one after the other and it seems to work ok..

I got my set up and running with a little help from a friend at the vape meet. He liked my picillo so much he just bought one. lol. Can't wait to get another set!! I love the size!! When are they available again?? Thanks for all the assistance everyone. Much appreciated.
GP Piccolo updates
We are scheduling a new production for the Classic Piccolo v2.5, after we finish the production of GP PAPS X and GP Salt & Pepper.
We have made minor modifications, so it will be a Classic Piccolo v2.6 with the same form factor able to accept 14500 batteries out of specs like EFEST v2.
These changes will have compatibility with previous version 2.5 and v3 as spare parts.
GP Spheroid Updates
We'll have delays to the production of GP Spheroid v2.1 with scratch resistant coating due to the high rate of failure during that treatment. We lost 130 units from the last batch, so we have to reconfigure our approach for the certain coating. Until we improve them, we'll continue to produce v2 with the best materials available, PEEK, 316 SS etc.
There will be an option in a few days for 24 karats gold plated posts and
24 karats gold plated 510 pin connector for a better conductivity.
Although, only one post matters, the positive post, both posts will be gold plated for visual purposes.
And of course the 510 pin connector will be gold plated also.
