Hi Ho Perseas, see you and VapourArt are still kicking. Happy to see that and hope all is still good for you. Still kicking here too, but way, way slower.

I haven't been on ECF for many months, but logged in to get some old info off my old PM's here. So had to stop in to rattle your chain, and may hang around ECF for a few days revisiting some parts of it to see how much it's changed.

Still have all the gear I bought from you (actually all the vape gear I've bought the last 3.5 years), but haven't used the GP stuff for around 2 years. Some of it has still never been used (incl the TiX). I only use a few of the 32 Reos that replaced them now and then, so they are mostly out of service too. Now days I run a bunch of Temp Control mods with a truckload of rta's, rda's and RDTA's bought for them. They're what most of the folks run on the foreign forum I've ran on since I left ECF early this year.

Anyway, howdy to any still here from the old days as well.

Spy Out.

Spydro!

Happy to know that you're well and kicking too!

Thank you very much for your kind post, I really appreciate the gesture, you'll have a pm in an hour :)

You asked for a surprise and at the same time to know the date a priori: your wish is fulfilled :D
Thank you :)

I mindlessly head to work most days, only looking at my schedule when it's posted on Saturday, not bothering to pay attention to off days as I get called in most times...
When I ordered my custom precious I had no worries that we would be home whenever it arrived so hence my post about it being a surprise. As this week got further along, hubby asked about the delivery date. I said, dunno...it's a surprise! Then he let the cat out of the bag and fessed up he had requested a 5 day weekend and we were going "away". Of course, I want to take my new precious so... :lol:

It will arrive just in time to head out that evening. I am over the moon. Thank you again!

Also, is my SS# registered automatically or do I need to send that in when The Piccoloid v2 arrives with the # for the Spheroid and Piccolo separately?

It is already registered, only when someone sells it, then an email is needed, no worries!

eekk what a horrible picture! Sorry - that is NOT a gap on the button - force of habit - locking ring is locked. Piccoloid is perfectly seemless - I'll get better pics to include the metal tank as well. The bead-blasted finish is divine with the polished accents!

Also, I want to thank Qorax for all he does and the excellent videos! I've been watching them while I wait and they were lifesavers.
Using Spheroid with no fluff had me concerned but I followed Stan's instructions and no dry hits, no gurgling, no leaking! Just splendid! I use SS 316 coils with 28g around 1.2 cold resist and this is the most perfect vape! Right now running KGD but normally use ReadyxWick so next rewick I'll see how that works out.

Thank you again Q and Persea!

ps - I believe I'll be ordering another - haha - hubs seems to enjoy mine a bit too much! He likes the brushed so guessing those are in Stock with ultem tank?

Yep! Qorax is great and he frequently creates new kinds of builds! Additionally, there are video guide references GP Series Reference Guides on Vimeo especially for the correct assembling of the Piccolo switch. The brushed ones are readily available, yours has a custom finish and needed more time.

Thank you very much for the positive feedback and the size of the Piccoloid makes it very addictive indeed! I guess he is surprised by its efficiency :)

GP_Dripper_Air_Flow_Control_AFR_for_MTL.jpg


A photo of the GP Dripper with the air flow reducers (AFR) attached for MTL vaping. They are made form PEEK[emoji768] type II reinforced with glass fibres similar to the insulators of the 510 connection and the positive post.


From what i see the dripper can be bought with either the

753451c60cb95680de6cc8cbbf905537.jpg


Or this

f67388ba38b9f42167f71f8a88e34f47.jpg


As the default tank

This is what they sell as the single coil only reduced chamber cap which is different than the drop in airflow reducers you sent out right?

867e1b649bfdc1dfb9237b215cb0d141.jpg



So can we buy the dripper with that last option as a default or must the reduced chamber be added on to

Sorry for the basic question

I can't load your site right now. So I cant see the at you may have only what ought has in stock. I think I'd like to buy the single coil only reduced chamber flavor chasing kit and use the airflow reducer inside the air flow

I have to save up anyway but if you don't offer the reduced chamber single coil cap as wn option for the only purchased cap will you consider making a new 4 sku with all those as options?

On the us vendor site they're out if the amber stainless dripper set. But they have top caps. And reducer caps. But i thought the reducer just inset into the air holes but they have a completely different top cap with chamber single coil only cap


So is there a dripper set with amber and stainless and single coil only reducer top cap ? Im a littke confused - super slow wifi makes it tough to go back and forth. Im sorry i have to ask such a basic question but with the options I see there are plentiful. More so than i anticipated but to get the single coil cap as an add on with other things gets quite expensive comparatively and I wanted to see if theres a flat or single coil flavor chasing mtl setup ij one buy rather than accessories and such with the standard three ir four dusk or single coil options.

You can use the default top cap with a single coil build and both AFR installed for a MTL vaping. You will only loose the reduced chamber space the extra single coil reducer top cap offers. We sent him the AFR parts yesterday, so next week he shall have them.

I revised my post to be more clear. Sorry about that. . Thanks. From what i see you wont offer the reduced cap as a default option just as an add on for those who have one if the other 4 caps already - which answers. Thanks.

Exactly! The reason is the GP Dripper has already 5 variations and 11 accessories. If I revise the variations to include the single coil reducer cap and its 4 options, our resellers have to follow and I'll create the perfect logistic mess with 9 variations. People may call it the GP complication :D

Ok thanks. Maybe you can derive the most popular cap combo and offer just one choice of the reducer cap based on that cap choice.

Here it looks like amber w/stainless is the most popular. Si an option to buy with a reducer in that color-way at least gives the flavor chasers who will not build dual coil setup an option to spend the same ws the lung hitters without increasing your workload and confusion substantially. You cod always make the kit cakked


GP Dripper f.c.


Then it appeals to the worldwide football fans :) who like football club but says to everyone else. They made flavor chasing edition!

It cuts through all the options for your long time customers who know they prefer reduced everything and single coil, makes it easy for you to tell said customers "get the fc kit for maximum flavor in a single coil", and offers those less likely to change their vaping style n option at the same cost so they don't feel they're paying more to stick with their standard GP style vaping


I do recognize a large portion of the world are changing to lung hits. I know I'm a minority now in the vape world but i think a lot of your customers are in the same boat.

So just a thought. Then if they get another top cap it offers them twin options in their style of vaping with different colors.

Thanks as always for your help. I need to examine the air flow control. Im guessing it has three holes and can be aligned to block one entry if desired.

Btw i find your ultem tanks to be much better looking in person. For any who were looking at photos and thinking they didn't find it to be an attractive option my opinion is you need to give it a chance in person because the feel is top quality and the look is much better when it's full and in person. In fact the reason I have to wait on the dripper is because I want to buy an amber tank for my spheroid. Along with a hybrid connector for the recently acquired HERON v2. I may have ti ask about obtaining one part of the hybrid adapter. I have most of one in the form of multiple spares but I think I missing one very small part despite having two of 90% of the connector. If that's the case I'll email you and see if we can work out just getting that one tiny part and as it turns out I may have to order the Amber tank directly from you and take you up on the less expensive shipping option for small parts


Thanks again Perseus.

Having a heron back is great I really missed it and how well it vapes compared to most things out there. I'm not sure how you could improve a V3 so I'm guessing it's probably a shift to a design similar to the dripper with dual coils and big air. Hopefully you'll do another run of H&P and maybe rerun the V2 if you do that and the shift is to dual coil and bigger air.

There is a 5th option as default with a full SS top cap for higher resistance values.

Great news! Yes, the Spheroid v4 took him by surprise. He was never a fan of the fluff or not being able to see the liquid level. You have solved this for him and now he knows why I wanted the v4 so badly.
Twice I have been searching for my precious only to find it sitting in his shirt pocket. He said he was just "testing it out". :lol:

Can you tell me if there is something intrinsic to the design if the heron v2 which causes the top cap to sit more flush in 510 configuration than in hybrid mode ? The recently acquired 510 stays closed far better than the hnp did and i winder now if the issue laid with some part on the hnp being a but off vs the other one. Previously when we discussed it here you mentioned that the tour cap o-ring was to blame and suggested the other cap as an option however the 510 doesn't seek to have the issue so perhaps the way the base fits causes a tighter tolerance ??
