Ok I thought I'd start asking questions here rather than in the provape Zap thread. This thread feels a bit like leaving the shallow end and wading in white water rapids, lol. If nothing else the sheer velocity of this thread is amazing sometimes, keeping up alone probably requires some skill :) anyways ..

So after a few days a serious vaping bliss I noticed that the last couple of tanks were very quickly turning dark, like used motor oil. First I thought it was because I had upped the watts, then i thought maybe its just getting gunked up from normal use. So... I popped the tank off rinsed the coil and wick real well with some hot tap water, couple of quick dry burns. Put it all back together, fresh tank o juice and all seems fine again. Just because I think what I did worked, is there anything else I need to do to "maintain" it? Is that the same or similar to a lot of zenesis owners maintenance routine?

I haven't tried everything out there by a long shot, but, I have tried quite a few different devices and setups, and I can say that this zap/provari combo is the best vape experience I've had to date. Thats with a stock coil and wick and not a ton of experience with genesis style atty's. That is without a triple braided, W-shaped, triple wick of 900 mesh oxidized n Mordor by dwarven armor smiths, then quenched in the tears of virgins. Although I will go that route if that's what it takes to keep this joyous vape going :) you know gotta do whatcha gotta do ;)

Lower your vaping angle, draw after taking your finger off the firing button, and switch to lower "caramel" juices.
But just vape it.

I have had that happen a couple of times synthros. One of things to check is that your wick is not touching the base of the atty. Also, your wick might be getting seasoned and you don't need to tip it quite as much. If you are flooding the wick, the excess juice will carmalize and run back into the tank and cause the darkening .

Rat says vaping at a 4 or 5 o'clock angle will help prevent darkening of your ejuice. Don't do this until your wick is fully broken in. Until then, you should be vaping at about 3 o'clock.

Continuing to draw for a second or two after letting go of the switch will help prevent condensation forming in the top cap, which in turn will cause darkening of your juice in the tank as it runs back down. This is just carmelization of the sugars in your ejuice and is not harmful and generally not noticeable in the taste. However, it may not be esthetically pleasing to the eye.......LOL


Sorry, for the duplicate info. I appear to be late to the party.......LOL

So... one last thing before I head to lunch:

Here is the build schedule for the next 6 days before I leave for Vapercon.

BAM: I will TRY to get these out the door and shipped before I leave. They are a very high priority and I'm going to get as many out as I can.
Cobalt: 50-75 Pcs will go to VaperCon
Sidewinder: 90 Will go to VaperCon
Zenjector: 180 will go to vaperCon
Standard: 20 will go to VaperCon
Mini: 20 will go to VaperCon
ASH-2: 20 will go to VaperCon
AYS-2: 20 will go to VaperCon
MFA: Possibly 20 if time allows
Heresy: Possibly a sample to show.

so thats 240-265 APVs and 180 ZenJectors.

I WILL have Stainless tanks, Quartz Tanks, O rings and Springs with me as well, while supplies last.

Who knows, maybe a prototype or two if I'm feeling brave.

Amazing. Zen, you are going to kill it at Vapercon. With no table ;)

What is MFA?

Another thing you could do with them, and I know there were a few people that did it last year around the holidays, is find someone that is putting a care package together for our troops oversees.

good to see ya here synthros :)

once the coil has broken in, see if vaping at 4 or 5 o clock helps with the darkening

Awesome thanks for the info all:) yeah I know the "zen video" I watched he talked about vaping it at 3:00, I thought he said, "I'd get used to it", so I've kinda stuck with the 3:00 orientation. It's definately broken in now so I guess I have a few hours to kill and I'm all good. :)
