Hi, my name's Jun.

I've been lurking about in this forum for a little while now and just decided to sign up. I currently own a gus telescopic w/ a SS bliss atty. I started vaping 2/4/13 and that is basically when i quit cigarettes. (smoked for about 9 years). Cigarettes taste pretty disgusting now that I started vaping so it worked out pretty well! I hope to learn a lot more on this site!

Hey, welcome.

I'm also a new member, from NorCal, impatiently waiting for the mail with my first real e-cigarette setup. Looking to kick an 18yr nasty habit.

good going and keep at it.

thanks for the support you guys!

quick question. I had had my IGO-L on my gus and it was working perfectly fine at .8 ohms. When i put my bliss on at .8 ohms as well, the button/switch starts to get hot. I cleaned the contacts and it still seems to do that. any suggestions?

Don't own a gus so can't really answer your question. Hopefully someone with that mod will chime in.

Welcome to ECF!

Welcome to the forum! Do you have pics of the bliss set up? It may be a short.

Thanks guys! And yea ill post a picture of it when i get home because im out right now.
E/ oh and i have to note that the battery isnt hot when i pull it out. Just the switch.

Normally when buttons get hot there is a short somewhere in the atomizer device ...

ahh but here's the thing...
My bottom contact is SS and when i measured the volts to the bliss it was getting only 2.0V... WEIRD!
When i used my friend's Gus brass contact, it was measuring 3.0V with the same battery.. could it be that the SS contact is faulty? should i sand it out a little to clean it up? it was fine before and i've only had the gus for maybe 2-3 weeks now.. I'm getting worried

 

[thisisjun]

should i just post this part in technical issues?

 

[Katya]
