Not only could we title the posts, we could highlight the text in a pretty color so it stands out that much more!

But not yellow, sorry Briar. It's too hard to read.

Maybe a nice blue?

Either way, mine will always be green from now on, even if I have to go back and edit in case I forget.

I was actually gonna suggest having another thread just for reviewing what we've tried and not for discussing it. Instead, we'd discuss it here. Of course, I always think of the most tedious solution :oops:
IDK ,it might sound tedious for us but easier on BAD & DAN ...
but then again I think the discussion also help them make decisions on these things too ...back to IDK :lol:

and the yellow works great on the black background tho ...but that blue goes blurry...
so which color works best depends on which back ground you use .

I had a carto that got a stiff draw and I stuck a paper click up from the bottom and moved the coil up a bit, something had gotten stuck below the coil and that fixed it. That was on a vision, don't know if it would work the same on a CE5.
thank you this did the trick

OMG WE CAN CHANGE THE SKIN OMG

:ohmy:

Wow, a year and a half later... Now I know!

Hmm, maybe we can just bold and underline the post?

Maybe they just need a forum helper or two to compile the legit reviewing and non-discussion-y stuff for them on a daily basis.

So I have had some hardcore time with my silver Rocket VV. My first impressions have so far proved me wrong. Although it is light, it has proved itself well. It has been dropped accidentally twice, and survived both drops, which were pretty bad! The first one happened when it fell out of my pocket while riding my motorcycle, and I was doing about 35mph. I had to circle back around to find it, and I am sure glad I did! It has a scratch on it, but it still works exactly the same as it did the very first day. The second time I dropped it fell off my toolbox in the garage, and fell 5 and 1/2 feet to the cement floor. Not even a scratch that time! In all the time I have been vaping, which is over a year, I think I have dropped my PV once! Not twice in one day??? I hope I am over that spell of clumsiness. I am loving the variable voltage ease of use. Being a flavor junky, as so many of us are, I am constantly switching between 3 ViVi Nova tanks. All 3 tanks seem to like different voltages, or is the juice that likes the different voltage??? Either way it has performed flawlessly for me. I haven't had any failures to note with the device. I am still very mindful to watch for leaks. It still worries me that I am going to have a tank full of juice dump into the unit. I have never, knock on wood, had one of my ViVi Nova tanks leak, but there is always the chance. I would certainly feel better if it was sealed at the top. The batteries also seem to last me long enough they don't leave me without a device to use, so I can't really complain there. I haven't pushed them all the way to the limit yet to see how long they last yet. I hope this device last a good long while for me!!!

CE5
Finally got around to trying out my ce5 however I found there was a problem I couldn't use it with an adapter is this the case with all adapters for 510 to ego which would make it an issue using anything with a 510 connect for ce5's impossible?

hmmm maybe I am NOT understanding you correctly or

the 108 degree heat has fried ma' brain today ...?? <HIGHLY likely !!!

but I just tried my "510 to EGO" adapter to connect my CE5 to my rocket & It worked just fine ....

see on mine it did not work.. I tried my 510 modbox my vv 510 modbox and my friends pv.. which I won't mention on here
none of them work seems like no air is getting in and it won't fire

OK so which adapter are you trying to use ?

I just tried my "510 to 510 sealed " (inter-thread connect.) & It screws in... but won't fire ...
but as stated before .....the "510 to EGO" (outer-thread connect.) works fine ...

sorry I may NOT be of any help here cuz I don't have anything else to try or suggest....:?:

I should have my Rocket and various other things most likely tomorrow since I live in DFW and GV is in Houston-ish area. With the Vivi Tanks have you rebuilt your own or just used the stock heads with stock wicks? I am finding cotton is a great wick but having issues getting my coil the right size. Sometimes it starts out great and then dry hits, or starts dry runs great and then floods.

I have 2 minis on the way and 2 metal tubes for my regulars coming so I can get some hardcore cinnamon and wintergreen but want to be ready with best built heads I can make.

Does anyone know if there are any plans to change the wicks from silica as a standard or maybe even as a substitute? After making the change to cotton I no longer have any throat scratchyness and the taste is improved.

I always thought that the major downfall with cotton wick was that it hindered the ability to dry burn the coils. The Cotton wick will scorch. Am I mistaken in this understanding? :unsure:

Hi! I am new to Alpha and my Sole should be here in about an hour! Not happy about getting yet another battery but could not resist trying this new system. The Sole looks like a no fiddle unit and I am determined to find something that is easy for my Mom.

Welcome tlynn! The sole definately looks cool!
