My main suggestions ...
1 do it over a tin or metal baking sheet so if the strong magnets decide to take off looking for metal youve already gave them some close by ( and the meal pulls alil of the force outta them )
2 they need to be in there opposing ( so the push away from each other)
3 if you can get them to come outta the housings - use a thickish piece of steel (stronger pull then the housings)
4 Clean everything very well and put a tiny bit of noalox on everything then wipe it out with paper towel (this should leave a tiny film of it on the housings magnets and screw)
5 put magnets in the housings so the force is pushing them away from each other put switch halfs back together compress them down and star the screw threads with your fingers then tighten with screw diver
6 if throw is to far or not making contact cut a tiny piece of oring to drop down in screw hole like zen suggested whitch will hold screw up alil higher

I saw your post. You were the one that started all This
Ill take the credit!.. hahaha Not this time!
I think that was the game plan, yes.
He'll finally be finished with the APV lists. Woot!I think so. I think that's what I heard.
But anyway i hope so.
Random question: Every person I've seen using a Zen~ device on Youtube has tilted the pv up. Is this needed so the liquid wicks properly, or will they perform sitting vertical like you would expect? Cause if not, that would get extremely annoying tilting it up just to get the wick wet closer to where its going thru the hole.
1. OK, I watched the video. It was for a Standard having problems with the 1600 batteries. I am using 2000mah batteries in the Standard so that's not the problem, I don't think, but should I take the Standard switch apart and reverse the magnets anyway?
2. My main problem is with the Mini. I took it apart and I have a small washer under the screw head that was not in the video. Is that an original part or was it added by the original owner?
3. In the Mini, I have 2 magnets, one smaller than the other. Because I was expecting them to be the same size, I did not notice which one was on the bottom.....Does it matter when I go to put the switch back together? The magnets are the same diameter, but one is thicker than the other........
That is as far as I have gotten. I will wait until I hear from you about which size magnet goes on the bottom first, or if it makes any difference.
I had a hell of a time getting the magnets apart, even sliding them so don't want to have to do it again.......LOL
Thanks.

Whew glad there was a 2 hour time out today.....didn't have to read as much tonight...
U guys should have known better shame on you.
Anyways...sadly TI mini #10 has been transferred over to someone else
On a good note though I was able to sell enough stuff today here and on Craigslist to keep my TI standard

While my coil and wick were breaking in I did hold it up so that the wick would be saturated... I guess I just got used to tilting it a bit because now, I notice I do it every time - it's not uncomfortable... in fact, it feels natural now. But, it is not necessary once your Zenesis is broken in and wicking properly.
I'm a Craigslist freak. Jut so many bargains. I'm a avid CL seller and buyer. More seller than anything though. I tend to collect a lot of things that I have lost interest in, and having kids helps as well
Hmm I also decided to test the strength of the quartz today....
It did not pass test from 4 foot fall onto concrete. Cracked right in half. No worries though. I have a spare..
This was only the second mod I have ever dropped (the other being a wood mod). Kinda ...... I dropped it. Now I have an ugly scratch on my bottom button grrrr

Which one did you drop? the mini?
Thanks a lot! I figured it was just their style of vaping, but had to be sure it wasn't a permanent wicking issue. Makes sense thru break-in time.
the natural 3 - 4 o clock position and down works fine
the uncomfortable 6 o clock postion like drippers have to do it might not work so well
Yeah the mini. It hit the ground right on the button. I was putting it in my coat pocket and thought I had it in and let go. All i heard was a crash. Couldn't even believe it.
I used to be a dripper and I hold my zenesis at about 3 o'clock. Feels very comfortable and u get used to it after a while also.
didnt know there was a video lol
all the magnets i know of have been the same size ?? the washer prob was added
if the magnets get together get your heavy steel back out let them stick to it and they will pull apart easier
put them in pushing away from each other - thats what keeps it from firing and what your pushing against to fire it
That washer makes it so the screw makes contact with the battery faster/easier/at a shorter distance to push. Remove it and try the switch without the washer since it's firing while standing up. I thought those washers went out with just the newer switches??
Hmmmm....my two magnets were the same on the OLD switch. Is one larger in thickness AND diameter? Or just thickness? It sounds like you have the new switch with it being set to low resistance MAYBE. Were you sent any other magnets? The larger magnet goes in the bottom of the switch and the smaller one on the screw post resisting the other one. That's the setup on my mini switch and it NEVER fires while standing, but I also don't have a washer under my screw. Take that off and see how it works.
