Don't know if you got this figured out or not. I've gotten gear from them before. If you want I can order it and then ship it to you. Just PM me the details. :thumb:
Thanks but not a big deal either way. Just building stash.

I figure since I adore thir Creek rda, the Tripod is a shoo in. I screenshot your build for reference :)
Haha, it's about time you got one!!! ;) In that pic it's just a simple 26g 316L 2.5id at 0.45 ohms. In my other one I have an AVS 26/30 316L clapton 2.5id at 0.4 ohms. I can't wait to hear how you and Letitia like yours. :D

Could it be the center pin with this darn Colossal? Anyone know if they get pushed down or if trying to pull it up would help. Remember the darn eleaf's that did that after only like two weeks? The OG Isticks? Pull too far and the glue came up with it. :facepalm:

No doubt I will love it. I’ll probably build a little closer to 0.5-0.7. I like a cooler vape than you. Did you put an af adjuster in it? Or run it as is. I never changed out the Creek from how it came. I figure I’ll just match the one in the Tripod to that

Speaking of Kaes, did I miss anything you had to say about the Solomon 3? I wanted one when I bought the Themis. Love to hear your thoughts on it.
I don't have it yet, was toying with getting one after Shawn's review. Impulse buy when I saw it for 16.00, think it's coming from sourcemore. Made a few different orders this week, I even ordered a couple juices.:facepalm::shock:

I missed part of this... it’s doing it with multiple tanks? Rtas or drop ins, or both? I think you’re onto something.... sounds like the center pin.

Are you sure? Sourcemore says $34.99. Could it have been anywhere else?

In the Colossal the 510 is spring loaded. Take a screwdriver and check the 510 pin. On mine I can see the 510 pushes down and then returns to position.

The 510 pin would have nothing to do with you not being able to unlock or change the settings though.

Have you been able to unlock it yet?

Yes I am able to unlock it and change the settings. I was confused about what the little lock picture was for.

Hey Bob, not actual unlocking as in to turn it on (or off) but there is a little lock at the bottom, lower left side.
I dunno what all is wrong but my friend that I bought this thing for last Christmas cannot figure out how to turn it on or what is wrong with it. I agreed to check it out. I am unfamiliar with the Colossal's.
The screen will not come off Power mode. When you press the fire button there is a counter of some sort counting but it is not firing. I tried other tanks and same thing. It is not doing anything when you slide your finger down the screen to adjust things as the Miniken does.

It’s reading coil resistance and showing how many seconds you’re pushing the fire button, but you’re not getting vapor?

At the bottom, there will be a S N or H. If it’s on S for soft, you may not get a decent hit. With the lock locked, swipe up to change that to N for normal or H for hard. It’s just a boost for ramp up.

Swipe down to unlock, then left or right to change modes.

I’m going to bed now, but let me know tomorrow if you’re still having trouble with it and I’ll try to help.

Did you sign in? I'll cruise my order confirmations and grab a link.

Crossed my mind too, but it would say no atomizer, not count fire seconds.

This is exactly what is wrong. It is stuck on S. He had a Tobeco with a .5 coil and unless I turn it way up I could not even detect a hit. I cannot get it out of S. Swiped up many times. Ok tomorrow then

I've run them with the included AF pins and without. I change them up all the time. With the 1.8mm AF pin installed it feels much more airy than 1.8 when comparing it to a Kayfun Prime set to 1.8mm (5 dots). The Tripod w/1.8mm feels almost like a SMJY 2k16 Doggy wide open. That's approximately like the Creek is. With or without the AF pins you can still adjust the airflow with the ring to fine tune.

I have one Creek as it came and that's perfect for an airy MTL/RDL. My other one has the MTL kit I got from you installed for a much tighter MTL. :)

I didn't see the beginning of this conversation and I'm a bit tired so I'm having trouble finding it but speaking of colossals and possibly their Center pins mine just decided it no longer liked the atomizer that actually came with it. A subtank no less with the coils that were apparently made for the tank.

It didn't matter if I took the batteries out it didn't matter if I shut it off didn't matter if I tried to get the mod itself to read the damn ohms it was wonked... really hope that this isn't like a glimpse into the future I've been using it for a whole 24 hours max.

The same atomizer worked on every other mod that I have out and available which is 5 because I'm doing a little bit of Maintenance to make sure everyone's clean and working.. only the Colossal seemed to have a problem reading the atomizer.

It happened right after I had put a different atomizer on it to give it a go so I figured maybe it pushed the pin in it but poking at that didn't seem to help. I took the coil out put it back in and that worked so it probably was the pin I'm thinking..

I'm hoping that this isn't a common issue or that it's not really sensitive to different attys because at this point I just do not have any tolerance for a mod that is super duper picky about what I put on it.

It's easy enough to take the subtank coil out and screw it back in but I'm not going to be willing to do that with every build I make every so often LOL

I received my Hussar v2 RDA (22mm) about a week ago. It's a restricted DL. The dual sided airflow is very much in the Venna ballpark. The cap is slammed like the v1 RDA or the Project X RTA. It's very quiet and like the v1 or X it has big time flavor. The v2 is a keeper!
IMG_1528cr.jpg

There really isn't much room for a large diameter coil (same with the BioChip and Seven RDA's). I tried a 3mm ID coil and wasn't satisfied. With a 2.5ID coil it's perfect. I'm using an AVS 26/30 316L clapton at 0.4 ohms.

@AngeNZ coils go anti-clockwise just like the v1. Juice delivery is the same as the v1 but it's been improved. The finned top piece can be screwed off and swapped with the one from the Project X. Yes, I do like it better than the v1. It Frankenvapes perfectly. You know you want one! :D

I have the Ulton vsn: https://www.fasttech.com/products/3041/10036695/9719967

There is also an SXK vsn for $15.28 w/MAP: https://www.fasttech.com/products/3041/10036695/9716618
