My sidewinder fires with the insert in place,but don't with a kick in it.It might be my batts,some are well used,some are fairly new(all AW IMR's,got a few more charging right now).I'm weeding out the old ones,it seems even with a full charge,they don't have enough oomph under load to fire the kick or provari mini with a ZAP.
Or could it be that the kick compartment is anodised and the kick is not making a good ground?I have read that anodised aluminum is not the best conducter.

Lookin forward to a clear tank,I know plenty of experienced vapers say"you don't need to see the juice,you'll learn the signs".I still like to see the juice,instant juice level indicator.

I like to see my juice, too.

I do believe that you need to take a brush tip on a dremel to the inside of the kick chamber, the ground screw should definitely not be touching any anodized surface.

Nope, same first and last letters, though...

Dude... my deepest apologies.
I knew that when the pic was taken, and when I uploaded it.
My fingers messed it up! Blame the late hour.
I'll go back in a bit and edit the post.

Gruss make sure your positive post is not loose. Unfettered had a zap that would not fire but I didn't get to see what mike did to fix it. I think it has something to do with the center pin.

You are correct.
He tightened up the center post for me.

Hey Kman, thanks for the laughs and the great time. Where's Jimmy Rat? I really enjoyed meeting your friend, Richard. Hey Ob, great to meet you too! :laugh: I wish I had gotten up earlier to say goodbye, but it was a very late night and late morning and all. Ob's, the nicest guy I ever met. BTW, I still want your jacket, but can you get Quentin Tarantino to autograph it for me too? :laugh:

Im exhausted! Where's Ian?

Ha! Your killing me. You know I'm NOT the nicest guy you've ever met :)

Had a great time hanging out with you.

You will have a special mention in the wrap up post I can make when I have about three hours to type it :)

My problem is I'm to much of a Ti purist.. The Inconel weighs in at about 50% more than the Ti.. Agree it is one slick looking APV, love the AYS tank on a mini idea..
Only the battery tube is Inconel. I don't know what Zen's logic was on this one, but no way was I gonna question it, or his choice of materials. He is an artist and this is one man who knows what he's doing whether I understand it or not.

I'm both honoured and thrilled :) Thank you Mike!

Hey everyone! I got in a few hours ago with Mookie and Pais. I had an awesome time and it was really great to see everyone, spending time with old friends and new ones. I won't bother with a "by name" list but there are no exceptions. I consider myself fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet everyone I did.

For those with sidewinders, if you can't get the kick working, just be patient. Mike said it will work with a kick but didn't say it would be today. But this thing rocks with the kick installed.

My CC was used for attempted fraudulent charges today, but thankfully I have fraud protection and they contacted me to confirm the activity, which was not mine. I think I got scanned while at the con personally, but that is only speculation, it was also used at the kitchen64 across the street... I know a lot of the Zenfidels were there, so watch your accounts!

On a brighter note - Pirate Booty just got kicked into high gear on the Cobalt!!!
