Just got my mini, looks beautiful. Already want another. I also want replacement tanks, as it is only a matter of time before I drop this thing. I thought I read somewhere that polycarbonate tanks would be available for replacement. I would love to buy more quartz tanks but only the std size is available under "zencessories." Anyone have a source for replacement tanks of any material? Thanks!

Go back a page or two and get the info for buying polycarbonate tubing and a tube cutter on Amazon.com. Zen~ said he now won't be selling polycarbonate replacement tanks. If you want them, you'll have to cut them yourself. File off the inside edges after you cut them and sand them smooth so you won't damage your o-rings.

Here's the post with the info: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ids-featuring-zenesis-pv-391.html#post5875928

:vapor:
So I just received my long awaited Croatian Genesis style atomizer.

Nope. I don't like it. The draw is stiff as wood and the vapor production is weak (I assume it's because of the lack of airflow). The setup is SO difficult and awkward.

I would've probably loved this thing before I was spoiled by the Zenesis. But, alas, I have a Zenesis Mini and a Standard on the way. There is no comparison. Period.

The kicker? The Zenesis is only ~$100 more. Well worth it IMO.

So if there's anyone reading this that's on the fence about a Zenesis, let me tell you that the Zenesis is the EASIEST Genesis style APV to get working. And boy does it work!

The only blue county in Texas!
I went to the vape meet and my Zini made the rounds! She was very popular and people had lots of questions about her. Sadly, before we left, I rinsed it out and changed flavors and then, thinking I wanted it to be vaping perfectly so I could show it off at the meet, I went and messed with it. Bad idea. It was vaping great before I started futzing and managed to pop the coil... so, we were late to the meet because I popped the coil and had to replace it and the coil was done very hurriedly so it's not great so I was mad at myself. But, it turned out not to matter... nobody vaped on it because, well, it's just not sanitary to be swapping APV's but everybody wanted to touch it and look at it and have me explain how it worked. Oh, and one reviewer there said that it had the nicest threads he'd ever seen on any mod, period and that he thought it was extraordinarily well made (which it is!). So, yeah. Sucks that I messed it up before I left but it turned out okay. I think I'm gonna have to rewrap my coil though... it's not lighting up all the way but I can't figure out where a short might be. I'm thinking maybe I just wrapped it shoddily.

I'd love to stop vaping others. But the Zenesis is far from travel safe IMO.

For pocket travel, we need a cap that doesn't pop off and some sort of way to lock the switch.

I've solved the switch locking with a tension clip but I need a way to keep the cap on.

And I left out the leakage. I guess a nice holster, if that's your thing, will solve everything but the locking switch.

Unthread the battery cover/switch one turn and it's off...

Oh and Zen, you can't offer the adjustable draw cap soon enough. I have to mentally readjust to the Zenesis everytime I vape something else. It's really mentally draining. :D

The VAST majority of the people asking for the adjustable draw cap have come to prefer the open draw that the Zenesis has... but the stiff draw cap will be available a week from monday, and that adjustable draw will be near the end of July.

Does any one know the size of the phillips head screw that is in the switch on the Mini??? I checked HoH and didn't see it listed...

10-24 x 5/16 and resist the urge to get a flat top screw... it needs to be rounded for the switch to work as designed.

Elaine: Maybe a dingo ate yo baby!

:D

There's no dingos here... just really a busy guy that didn't finish Scotts PV until this afternoon.

I understand that, Zen. However that answer is unacceptable for me. All sorts of things happen throughout the day and things get twisted and shifted in my pocket.

The tension clip works a treat. You should really think of including one. :)

I'm one of the VAST majority. My problem lies in the fact that I do have to vape other devices here and then. I'm 100% positive that you know most other devices have a drastically different draw than the Zenesis. I literally have to mentally readjust to the Zenesis every time I vape on something else. Or maybe I have to readjust to the others. :D

Either way, it's not a fault of the Zenesis. It's just annoying. LOL

Zen I really need a tank... I know you are busier than a 1 legged man in a .... kicking contest... But is there a way I can PayPal ya or something and you could drop 1 in the mail to me.... You spoiled us all.. And I just have to have quartz now, my tank finally went and I just cannot bring myself to put poly on it.... It's been cracked since the second or third day I had it... I really can't believe it made it this far and through 7 removals and cleanings before it finally went..

So it sits lonely, and topless awaiting your reply..

Sincerely,
Shattered.....
