Wow, turning the top cap just a quarter turn really adjusts the throat hit a lot! I don't even want to try it all the way! Speaking of... is directly across from the wick the harshest throat hit and a quarter turn (on either side) halfway? Or does it go all the way around if you know what I mean?

Okay, now I have to decide what flavor to christen my Zenny (Zenesis Mini) with!!!!
I love Indy too!! (and my Zenesis) Your photo would make a great avatar... I'm tempted to copy the idea and try to make one.

ALLL the way around... hole close to wick is less hit, more vapor... hole opposite the wick is the throat hit from Shai-town and thin wispy vapor.

i been trying holding it horizontal , hole as you suggested. juice runs out of hole so i turned cap other way holding horizontal, still didnt help. Im thinking about making a coil a little larger than wick, installing it, then sliding wick inside coil .

No... bad idea... the coil must be touching the wick without shorts.

wrap the coil using light tension... just enough to get it to lay onto the wick... and fire it... you'll see the ends glowing... where they go dark... grab a toothpick and slide the wire up and down while firing it... up and down... up and down... it WILL come to life up to the next shorting point... thats where it goes dark again... do the same thing... it's a 15 second job once you know what you're looking at...

One possible helpful hint... when adjusting the coil... use a battery that isn't fully charged... run it down to 3.5 or so volts... it makes it easier to adjust until you know what you're doing.

I'm sorry there are those that are still having issue with their Zenesis. :( I don't know if any of this will help, it may have been already suggested but here are some things that really helped me with mine.

Used to get dry hits myself, I'd hold the mini upside down, let the juice drip from the wick and then get a few good vapes before I'd hit dry again. I fixed that issue, no more dry hits, just good stuff and I did NOTHING to my mini, I changed the way I was holding it.

Before I held my mini almost vertical while vaping it. Never held a cigarette that way but during my almost 2 years of vaping, I got into the habit of holding my devices up to my mouth like it was a microphone. After pondering what I could do different without tearing everything down again, I thought about how I could keep that wick wet.

I then had a ah ha moment with my mini Zenesis and thought, keeping the wick immersed in the liquid while vaping would surely end the dry hits and it did. No more dry hits and all I had to do was change me, change the way I held it.

Now, I hold my mini straight out in front of my face, horizontal, parallel to ground. The vent hold in the cap is in line with my wick and they face the floor too. This way, my wick is totally immersed in the eliquid when I'm vaping it and it's awesome now!

I love my mini so much now, I'm kicking myself for not getting the standard as well when I ordered.

LOL I came to same conclusion. :p

ok zen, been doing as you suggest but as soon as i start using it i notice bad taste. so i remove top cap and see it is shorting again, then i start over again, and again. guess i have used batteries at all stages but i will try 3.5

Is it the coil I shipped it with, or has that been tossed?
