I was thinking as I was filling yesterday and looking through and over my bifocals to try and insert the syringe into the hole -- a bevel would be nice around that hole for both juice drainage and ease of insertion, is this out of left field? :)

Zen mentioned he was testing this out and was optimistic regarding it becoming a future upgrade. (It was mentioned in the Zenesis Group forum "Future Upgrades & Modifications" Thread)

Next time you get new glasses try the Progressive bifocal. It gives you intermediate ranges so you can see wherever you're looking. ;) Perfect for the computer too. :)

Just my tip for the day. :D

I have to go read those threads evidently......:facepalm::blush:

Had 'em, hated 'em, gave me a ripping headache and made the entire world a blurry place IMHO -- normally I like that feeling but not when I'm trying to read construction plans and documents, way more hassle than I had ever though they would be.........:(:(:(:(

There is a knack to fitting them. If it's not done correctly, you end up with problems like yours. Too bad they didn't work out for ya. :(

Maybe try going elsewhere next time you get glasses and perhaps someone else can fit them properly. They can't be too high, they must have a certain angle to the frame and they can't be too far away from your face.

A few not terribly important things I discovered making coils.......

Don't forget to take out the battery before wrapping a new coil.

4 or 5 inches of wire is plenty to make a 5 wrap coil with extra to play with.

Do 4 or 5 pieces of wire at a time when you do the quench and burn thing. Saves time and effort for the next coils.

Hold all 5 wires together on the very end during the quench and burn. That way, the middle part that you wrap gets done twice as often as the ends and will give you good hits from the very beginning after wrapping a new coil.

Use a candle. It has a steady base and gives you both hands free to work with.

Be very sure before wrapping a new coil that you have gotten all the pieces of the old coil off the top and bottom screw. Otherwise, they will short out the new coil.

Don't cut the final tail of wire off until you check to see if your coils are burning evenly. Just make sure it's out of the way and not touching anything. That way you can always unwrap from the top to play with the wraps if necessary.

Use a pair of fingernail clippers to cut the extra top wire off. It is curved and will allow you to cut the tail closer. Also it is smaller than scissors and will fit in your travel kit.

I only wet and burn the new coil a couple of times with ejuice before putting on the cap and vaping away, and I've never had to struggle thru harsh hits at the beginning of a new coil.

Great tips! :thumbs:

How are your switches working for you? Better, I hope?

Hey everyone.

I am looking forward to when I will be able to order one, Zenesis mini or at least a zen atty pro, and get off the cartos. The Zenesis must be amazing as I have never seen such a following of a device before. I mean Zenfidels, you guys have a community!

I have done a lot of reading on this huge thread, but can you guys give me a short list of what it is I am missing out on using my provari mini and cartos compared to these APV's? Also are there any other limited models coming out in the near future (like Bam & Ti) that I might want to wait for?

Thanks everyone.
