Scorpion #1 I think is a no go. Its had juice in it for 3-4 days now and all I'm getting are burnt dry hits. The wicks have disappeared inside the center pole, which I suppose could be a normal saturation reaction. It also leaked overnight last night. It was standing up on a PV and I just discovered juice around the bottom at the connector. It was on the outside, which means it came out between the plastic and metal base.
The Rocket is a big hit, to this point. I have been using it as my "out the door, on the go" device. It has been by my side, in pockets, thrown on car seat, all over town type of APV. You may or may not have seen the pic I posted of the black Vivi Nova tank on top of it, but thats how I've been using her all along, and I couldnt be happier. I am going to open it up and seal it off, as we all know its only a matter of time before I put something on top that will leak. Not my Vivi's, because they dont leak.
I know the Vivi's aren't an Alpha item, but I couldn't be happier with those also. I've got a drawer full of the old style stone or vision or whatever they are called, type of tanks, and its a breath of fresh air (or vapor) to have a tank like these that work as advertised.

I just filled my second Scorpion. I tried something to prevent leaking/cracking around the bottom of the sides. I put on a bit of super glue before I filled it. I have to draw on it without firing to not get dry hits, just like my first one. I do like the flavor I get. I placed my first order for one, and then I ordered two more. They are not perfect, but I had almost 4 refills in the first one before it leaked. Maybe with the glue, this one won't start leaking.

Around here we have a heavy hispanic population and they traditionally start fireworks early so they were going off way early...she still hasn't shown...last last night as I was going to sleep I thought I heard her mewing but it could have been a neighbor's cat, but it sounded like her. When I awoke this morning I went and checked front/back, no KiKi yet.

View attachment 114929 Nothing worse than the "not knowing" when your pet is missing.

My first experience with the Scorpion crashed and burned. I filled it with Flux Dew Red Alert got some really nice hits then literally the tank shattered and juice ran all over my mod. No biggy cleaned up the mess and tossed it. I was shocked though that is about 15 mins the citrus in the juice destroyed the tank. I have a few more buy am trying to decide what juice to use as most of my juices are acidic (cinnamon, banana, fruity). I am thinking my Flux Pyramid should be fine for my next go. Has anyone tried it in the Scorpion?

Did Kiki show yet? I had a cat hide in the box springs and in a recliner. I hope you find her. Open some tuna and put down if she smells it she will come out. The fireworks started here last Saturday

Try putting out a can of Tuna and see if she will come out

 

[kellie]

Try callin the animal shelters

 

[dannoman]

I'll defo try that--the ants will have a feast but I'll give it a go (ants in Texas are plague-worthy)...

 

[KalebK]

Has she ever been gone this long? I am getting a slight gurgle with my PumpCart, any suggestions??

 

[kellie]

Stop pumping so much? That sounds wrong on alot of levels lol

Not sure if truer words have ever been spoken written. And they aint the only things that earn that distinction!

 

[kellie]

I would put some inside and outside and see if she is hiding in the bushes or something. Did you check in closets and garage and basement and attic if you them. Cats can get in some crazy places

 

[Robby]

man I sure hope KiKi comes home or turns up for ya..I couldn't imagine losing my daisy dog...the one time I couldnt find her she was up by the neighbors because she was in heat and the neighbor has a dog in a big outside kennel..scared me pretty bad..was running around like a nut calling for her...could that be what happened..maybe your kitty was in heat and heard the call of another cat?

My g/f's parents have a bulldog that ran away a few weeks ago..she put up an ad on craigslist, facebook and made posters but when they got a call a few days later it was the craiglist ad that the people found who had the bulldog. I wouldn't have thought of craigslist but luckily she did and it worked.

Well add me to the list of new mini PT owners, have many homemade versions, first one ever bought so looking forward to trying. Thanks again for the great pricing for the alpha team. Four left after mine so rest of you who haven't gotten one better hurry, almost gone for now.

 

[kellie]

lol I was just being a smart a**. Try blowing it out.

More Rocket troubles for me It IS assembled correctly. The bottom cap has to be "just right" for it to fire, which it does. And I can change the voltage, but as soon as I hit the fire button, it hops back down to 3.0.... it won't stay at whatever voltage I set it to. So I think I'm done fiddling (or tinkering, or tinkling...) I'm not a fiddler anyway. On top of that, I think I ruined the 2.4 head on my Vivi trying to dry burn it DAM!! This is NOT my week!

Not a big fan of passthroughs... guess I'll wait for whatever drops next... (I hope it's soon )

Not sure this will help you but I had this trouble when I first got my Rocket, Phoenix wasnt making good contact with the connector, so I shaved the plastic flush with the connector and havent had any trouble since. Hope this offers some help, as I simply love my rocket, I'm a little rough on mine carry it in my shirt pocket at work, constantly falling out onto the warehouse floor, still going strong although today I did drop it and lost the lens covering the led, but still working great
