I'm curious to know how far others let their 18650s run down before replacing with a freshly charged batt.
That's the only thing I have trouble with! I've gotten so used to my Provari's (spoiled), I'm having a hard time judging when I should be changing the batt out in my Zenesis. I'd really like to do it around 3.5v or so if I can catch it.

Hi peeps! Got home from Vapebash/Vapefest about five hours ago and have just caught up on the chatty Cathie thread! I came here looking for nothing but technical information about the Zenesis and what do I have to do? Read five pages of nothing but friends having a good time talking about other things! Sheesh people. Could ya stay on topic PUHLEEZE! :lol:

I missed you all and wish I could have met ALL of you in Chicago because I KNOW I would like you even more in person than I already do... as I did PumasForPets, Karen (kcos), CigarBabe, Bumpi, RIPPLE!!!! (my new buddy who also lives in IL!), saw UncleDagger for only a few seconds and, of course zen~.

Where do I start? CigarBabe is just as cool and nice as she is on her show and looks so good in a hat (so freakin' jealous! I love hats, but look really stupid in them). Karen is so nice and came prepared with DRIP TIPS, Yay! I got a new Ridgemont that looks SO cool on the Zenesi. PumasForPets is a really nice guy who will be having a successful PV business in the near future. It was fun hanging with him too :).

RippleInStillWater is just the sweetest, kindest, funniest peep I had the pleasure of spending all day Saturday with. He took me around both Vapebash and Vapefest because he knew I had gone there by myself, so he entertained me for the entire day. We then did dinner, went back to the Vapebash and had another drink. I left him as he was headed back to the Hyatt at Midnight. :) Thanks for making me feel so comfortable, Ripple! I had so much fun hanging out with Ripple.

Bumpi I only got to spend a little time with. Nice young man. He had on the Zenfidel t-shirt and it looks really nice in person! Great job, Bumpi! He seemed to be enjoying his new Zenesis too! He was hurting when I saw him though. :lol:

Then we get to the GREAT Zenmaster. This is a man I could hang out with 24/7 and NEVER be bored. What a nice, nice man and SO entertaining! We are from the same generation and had a lot in common and share many of the same life experiences :). He knows what I mean.

We spent HOURS at Vapebash while he worked on everyone's Zenesis getting them set up properly and vaping clouds of vapor (the man never stopped working!). He had mergryphon at the table for an hour or so and she left smiling, so I don't know if her comments about the Zenesis on VapeTV were before or after her visit with zen~. That was around 3:00-3:30 PM yesterday. After Mike finished with mergryphon, we headed over to Vapefest and had a BLAST listening to Ripple and zen~ stories for a few hours.

Then zen~ took me up to his hotel room :D. It's TRUE. I spent a couple of hours in zen's hotel room (I have pics :lol:) while he fixed my Standard.

He noticed my 2000 mAh AW IMR wasn't fitting in the Zenesis correctly (switch never screwed all the way down from day one and had an 1/8" gap at the switch), so....he fixed me up. He even rolled a 5 wrap coil for me and got it up and working. Niiiiice! He set my switch at medium for me and I like it a LOT. The new switch is perfect.

Then, I got my mini!!!!! (Thanks CB and zen~!) WooHoo! He set that up for me too. It works perfectly and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! This put us at about 8:30 PM and Ripple and I had not eaten ANYTHING all day long and were dying for food, so we left zen~ and PumasForPets at the Hyatt and headed back to the Holiday Inn and Smokin' Joe's for dinner and a few beers.

Thanks to Ripple and the Zenfidels, I had a great day. :) Every vape biz I have ever purchased from was there and many I haven't ever bought things from were there. LOADS of venders. I met Vicki from Cignot. She is just as nice in person as she is via email. Her Cignot business is why I stopped smoking.. I bought my very first ecig, eGo-T kits/supplies from her. The rest is history! Grimm Green (Nick) and Amber were there with their new juices. They didn't have any tobacco flavors so I didn't buy any of their juices. Nice people though. :) Everyone I met was nice and very friendly.

All in all...I'm glad I went and am especially thankful for having met Mike and everyone else who made the day so enjoyable. If you ever get a chance to attend one of these that's near enough for a drive.....GO! You will be right at home with other people who love vaping just as much as you do. :)

Now, on to the pics (there's only four). I completely forgot to take any pics until I was in zen's hotel room. :) I just had to do it!

Here's zen~, PumasForPets and Ripple. Ripple is the one with long hair. Enjoy! (I told Mike I was posting these here and he didn't say no, so heeeeeeere goes :))

Hey Vicsan,

Was nice seeing you and the others at VapeBash. I got to shake Zen's hand and got a mini ming for my mini Zen from Kcos. Wish I had more time to hang out there but the wife was with me and she was anxious to leave. Had a blast though!

Yes...it was nice to meet you too, UncleDagger!

Great report! Sounds like a lot of fun.

I missed all my fests last year, and so far this year too. I'm making plans for next year!

Great run down Vic! I would have loved to have gone....but unfortunately I am stuck at the house until I leave for overseas in a week. I will make it to one eventually....work just hasn't been too good the past couple of years for me to have my normal 4-6 months off....have pretty much had to stay busy as much as possible.

I love the idea of a zenfest! I'm sure we would all be hurting by the end from laughing and try to stay out as long as possible...lol

There's always next time. :) How ya like your Zenesis?

This thing is a cloud maker, to quote Murdock "I tell ya what." Zen set it up and gave me a little tutorial and it's been pumping plumes since. It is most definitely a joose hog. I probably don't vape but 2-3 ml a day, but I think the Mini is hiding it somewhere. I had to refill it once I got home from the hour drive from O'Hare.

It's gooooood!!
