Ohh... I did not know about this. Can you give me a bit more info so I can put it in?

Concern number two: The switch on the mini has a shorter throw and better feel than the standard.

What's happening: As I explained earlier, the ability to fire both batteries was an issue and I put together a solution that I hoped would solve the problem. As it turns out, this is proving to be an inelegant solution. It is not my desire to provide you with excuses and less than perfect execution of a flawed design, but I hoped I had this solved without causing further delays.

What Im doing about it:I've built a prototype already of a design that works much better, and when I am in Chicago for the vapefest I will meet with the shop to discuss the changes to the design of the switch button that will solve the issue entirely without it being a workaround. The throw will be a little longer than the mini... It needs to be... But the switch will have a slightly longer post removing the need for the spacer and a tighter fit to the sides of the threaded section to provide a better action. As soon as I have the parts in hand I will be providing a zero cost upgrade to all that need it. I expect the parts to be available in April assuming there are no production delays. PVs will continue to ship with the original design, and all parties involved will get the free upgrade.

That should cover the issue for now at least, might not need to mention anything once the upgrades are done.

You nailed it right on the head.... By design, in my mind the Zenesis is supposed to be the Rolex of PVs... Beauty in simplicity... Form following function, serviceable forever and an ownership experience like no other.

I was expecting it to be a Patek but I guess Rolex is still ok. :)

i have a feeling zen is gonna be very very drunk with all the drinks everyone will be buying him in chicago!

He's gonna deserve it after all he has done for us zenfidels this past month or so since things kicked into high gear. Not to mention what his vision and dedication to service will do for the vaping community as a whole as he becomes the standard all other PV producers will be measured against

yea thats his plan actually, to hit both....I was supposed to be with his group but cant get outta work for it :(

Two things:
First, sad to hear you can't make it shai...r u sure that's not something you can "cough, cough, sorry I can't make it in today" a few days in a row...springtime flu?

Secondly, The fact that Zen has a traveling entourage is awesome...be careful zen, remember MC Hammer...are "zenfidel" tee shirts in the works? I was gonna get one printed up, but didn't want it to look like a cheap knockoff if Zen was gonna have "official ones" at the shows

Actually, with the Rolex, form follows function... With the Patek form dictates function... They give up complications to fit certain case styles...

I'm a huge watch fan... And I hope to own a Patek tank case some day before I die, but it will never have the complications available on a submariner.

But I get your point... The Patek is an exceptional timepiece.

I do not plan to have Zenfidel shirts made up... And if you have plans to do it, I'll have my licensing guy contact you about royalties... I'm sure we can work something out. :toast:

Lol... Don't be so sure... I'm amusing from a distance... In person I'm not good to be with unless you travel with bail money.

Now I KNOW it'll be fun to meet you...might not always have bail money on me, but I'm the kinda guy that will pee on the steps of the police station with the intention I can help ya bust out :chuckle:

yea i thought about it, but, it's a seniority thing, and I'm not exactly near the top of the totem pole....calling out sick for a weekend doesnt look good for my line of work :p hell, I could've stayed with a friend that lives nearby too and saved some coin, but alas :(
