Penelope official and tips and tricks

[imeothanasis]

Only from one side uke.
When you see an overflooding effect you can put a towel on the mouthpiece and shake penelope right and left keeping her upsidedown

cool... so just wrap a little of the R on the one or both of the NR sides to shorten the R wire. thanks... not that i need it. My 1.5 was pretty sloppy though.

I still don't get what Imeo means about rapping the mouthpiece to get some of the extra juice out of the ceramic when its flooded....?
Does he mean to force the juice out the d/t? or out the other way....

1 side should do the trick. I havn't really used ready wires and I don't remember where the ready wire video is (that I believe is where imeo first mentioned it) But I would do something like this.

Bend one side of the nr wireback towards the res wire then bend it back again in a couple mm. At the point of the second bend wrap your nr wire around the small part of the res wire and the nr wire that is touching.

I am guessing since you will loose a little of the nr length it would be best to do this on the side that goes in the negative channel

Ok so I realised a picture is worth 1000 words so here is a terrible picture

Beware of breaking the ready wire

3.5mm is 8 strands so 3.5 - 1 strand gives around 3.06mm. Regarding the bulk it takes practice. the 1.7 ohms premade wires work fine and not bulky at all. I get around 3 or 4 wraps. Now if you use a thinner wire than 32 gauge the problem is for the same resistance the wire will be shorter. And then although you have a thinner wraps but the overall wire is short. So it is a tradeoff thing. And keep in mind nichrome gives you longer wire than kanthal for same resistance and same gauge. If you want to go low use a 2 thin wires like 34-36 gauges and make them twisted, the Bish way. It takes practice and patience to find the ohms you want with the number of wraps you want with the wick thickness you want and that can fit

Ah, thanks! I will have to try this soon!

cut a small piece of wick and unreel the strands. That way you will see how many strands every kinf of wick has. That way you can make the calculations of how many strands you have to remove to reach the desired width of the wick sub

Good idea Imeo thanks for the tip!

no problem sub

Not sure if this would be a thing with Penelope or my Stealth, but last night I replaced the connector pin on my Stealth with a brass one. Ever since that my Penelope has had a sort of high pitched whistle when I inhale. Not sure why it's any different.. it was silent before. Do you guys have any tricks to eliminate this?
I do have a Penelope GGTS adapter coming which will probably fix the issue completely when I use it on the GGTS but still, any tips would be great.
Thanks

Is it possible the slot in the Stealth pin is at a different angle now causing the whistling?

 

[subver]

Oh that could be it! I will try that in a little bit and get back to you

 

[subver]

Just tried it and it didn't seem to work.. although I did scratch up my new brass connector.. I'll have to use my 3M polishing papers to fix that!

 

[RiverNut]

You should be able to eliminate the whistle just by screwing the pin up or down slightly (with your Penelope either slightly closer or slightly further from the top of the cap).

 

[subver]

Oh, ok, nice. So the stealth connector pin doesn't have to be tightly closed, as far as juice getting into the mod goes?

No it does not.

Hi Imeo. Will any Penelope's be going to the Greek seller. Need to get that before Proteus hits the market

From what I understand imeo will be producing pens again when Proteus goes into production . Imeo , correct me if I'm wrong .

Thank you for that Supa. I wish I could get one now. IF ANY ONE WANTS TO LET THEIR PRECIOUS PENNY GO, LET ME KNOW PLEASE

 

[RiverNut]

Last I heard, Achilles and it's tank are replacing Penelope.

 

[Rajuisha]

I don't really want Achilles, need to see how you rebuild it and also how the tank is if I am to get one. But as always, we all know its gonna be amazing but not really into skinny atomisers.
I hope to see a video on Achilles and its tank soon Imeo. You know we hate waiting lol but time is what creates perfection

 

[imeothanasis]

I will try to do that supa. But maybe you will like Achilles with its tank more

In about 20 days I will be able to make a video maybe Raj
