Zen~ For the sake of the world's economy & my personal sanity and financial well being, you really have to stop coming up with all these great ideas and products. <snip>

No kidding... I'm in the middle of purchasing a new home. My wallet can't take any more strain...

I'll be bringing my standard to him so he can get it measured for a new flex holster

I already have one for my provari, and another for my GLV-2 mini...need one for my XL and one of my GGTS's now
.
I have 2 and they are well made! I got the first one with a SB I bought from the classies, and ordered a custom one for my Provari. They're both chrome, and the holsters keep them from getting any major dings.

You don't me well enough obviously lol. I have chronic CRS. I can do a routine everyday for 2 years, take a few days off, and I'm .... lost. It'd be really nice to be able to download the tutorials to my laptop and phone, for future use. I don't see a "download" button on the video, the video uploader has to select that option for us to be able to download it. I tried a youtube uploader program but had to uninstall it because it wouldn't download anything. (my laptop is too tiny for all that extra stuff).
Uma, just create an account on YouTube. You can save your favorite videos, so you always know where to find them! :thumbs:

What do the cases look like? If it's a secret till they hit then that's cool, I'm just curious, that's all. Can't wait to get my mini, I'm so excited :)

The cases for the mini look great... But there has to be some surprises here! The standard cases are pretty special, and I sure wish they were here!

Hey, while I'm thinking about it, I want to mention something that worries me a bit, and that's the wick situation.

As most of you know, the zenesis PVs and Z-attys each come with 12 wicks... 6 which are 400x400 and 6 which are 325x325.

I've been getting an increasing number of people that are asking me to substitute so they get 12 400x400 or 12 325x325 because they either vape exclusively VG or exclusively PG... At first this seemed to me to be an easy task to fulfill, but there's a little problem I want to address.

First, and least important... I ordered enough material to do an even split, because that's what I said was included. We MAY run out of one or the other if all the requests are honored. I have no way of knowing how far off the numbers will be until everybody has paid, because that's when these requests are being made. This might become a problem that I had not planned for.

But more important than that, is that I was including both kinds of wicks for a reason, and I feel there is a very very strong argument why you should have both grades of wicks on hand.

Some VG juice is thinner than others, and the thin juice will wick better with 400 grade wick... And some PG juice is thicker than others, and it will work better with 325.

When you get your PV, I would prefer to have set it up with 400, without exception. The setup procedure I do is more predictable for me with that grade of mesh. 400 is the correct mesh density for most juices on the market. Only the thickest of juices require the 325.

So let's say you get your PV, and you specified that you get all 325, and your juice wicks poorly with it. You will log in here looking for support and the suggestion you will get from virtually all the genesis experts will be to try 400 grade wick, if the 325 is failing.

Well, in this case, you would need to suffer the frustration of having to wait for the opposite wick to ship to you, which could take a long time if you are overseas, or a distance from me. Personally, I feel that everybody should have at least SOME wick on hand in the opposite grade as you believe you will need.

A wick will last you at least a month... So with both on hand, you will have plenty to get you through while you decide what works best for you.

I truly feel it is a bad idea to allow for these substitutions, because having both types available could make the difference between enjoying your new PV and being truly frustrated by it.

I have already told a couple people it would be OK to substitute, but on reflection I believe I have made a mistake by allowing it, and they have made a mistake by asking for it. I can understand the request, but I should have had a more thoughtful response than to simply agree. In this case, and for these people, I think I have failed them, and I strongly urge that they reconsider.

Additional requests for a single type will be denied because i believe its the right thing to do!

I hope that's cool, I'm just trying to be the best mentor I can be to people that are new to these devices.

ultimately, except for some of those who already own this type of device, you will probably know best and what works best with your device. I think you should put them together and ship them the way you want and told us they would come. If need be, we can go out and get the extra materials on our own. The materials are cheap.

Do what you do. With 6 and 6, that give everyone enough to get started and if need be, people can trade with others and or just get extra material on their own or wait till things calm down with you and then order more supplies from you.

just my 2 cents.

lol we can always trade amongst ourselves after we get our orders, I am not stressing it :D

Anything that makes it easier for zen~ to complete the task at hand.

what you mean is anything that gets you these things faster :) I agree and am sure the ones getting them first would too.

I mix a 50/50 but I don't like thick juice so I thin it out. 400 works great with my stuff and I already have over half a sheet so, do what you must, I'm all set.. But I can trade my 325 with someone if needed... Just pm me if ya need a trade.... Hey Zen, that credit card, Victoria's Secret thing.. Was just a joke.. You can process my payment anytime now.....
