I meant orders!! If they want then they will pay.

some of those have been sitting on the ss for 2 months - they might no longer be interested

Here Tibby, this will save you some time:



Now you can focus on the order stuff!

Possibly but hopefully not.

Hey! That works!

I haven't tried it yet.

So... Maybe she was put off by that. Let's try:

forget about it, atty! all they are getting is mesh - no rose included!

Hey y'all

My zenesis arrive today!!!! YAY!!!! wooHoo!!

but, i can't get it to work ....i think i narrowed down the problem, but could use some help if you have any ideas. I posted this on the zenesis help thread..

I just received my Zen2 490 carto hybrid (happy dance!!) , but I'm having a bit of difficulty getting it to fire.

I *think* it's that the carto isn't making a connection at the bottom of the tank. I got an extra 510 cap, so i've been able to check a few things. I've done all the problem solving i can, so I'm missing something.

The carto fires when it's attached to the regular 510 cap on the Zen body, so the battery is making the connection, and the carto itself works.

Neither the carto nor a 510 atty will fire when i use the base of the tank instead of the 510 cap. I tried adjusting the lower screw on the bottom cap, just in case the heads were slightly different, but no dice.

So, I think I'm not getting electrical contact between the base of the carto and the base of the tank. I tried pulling out the center post of the carto, but that also didn't work.

Any tips or tricks to make that connection? or is there something pretty basic that I'm missing?

Thanks!

What does your multi-meter tell you about the connections? Continuity test?

 

[tiburonfirst]

lol - hopefully those zen people have an idea but you gotta be on the right track. if there's no contact it won't fire. can you pull up the center post on the pv itself? or try and pull out some more on the tank itself?

 

[tiburonfirst]

aha, atty will take care of that in a jiffy!

i can safely call it a day!

goodnight and sweet dreams!

 

[FranC]

Sweet dreams Tib...

it's mechanical, which really ought to make it easier...the screw at the bottom of the tank makes contact with the battery, and the center post of the carto (or atty) should make contact with the screw to complete the circuit.

so, assuming I'm using the right settings, the top of the screw is indeed connected to the bottom of the screw. but, other than testing for heat (which i'm not getting) , I'm not sure how to test for continuity between the center post of the atty or carto and the screw.

I've pulled up the center post on the carto. I'm hesitant to try to screw the screw on the head any further, it looks tight (and besides, i don't think i have any hex wrenches here at home) (what kind of vaper am i, no hex wrench- sheesh

Good night Tibs

Wish I could help CES but I'm lost as usual. I have no mechanical pv's.

Thanks Fran. I'd be way more lost if this thing had wires. It's pretty ingenious

But it doesn't work.

 

[AttyPops]

Don't have one.

So basically...you could test with an ohm meter.. with the tank and carto assembled but off the battery.

Test to see what ohms the setup is at the tank/battery connector .... That will tell you if the carto is connecting inside the tank.

Guessing here.

If it reads open...it's not connected inside the tank (if I understand what you wrote properly). Need a picture.

well, parts of it do..just the tank part doesn't

so, um.. I'm not sure how to test the ohms on a regular atty or carto. Don't know where to put the second lead

one lead goes where the tank screw would make a connection with the battery, the other lead would go somewhere on the atty..it's the *somewhere* that gets me...

 

[AttyPops]

"Pretend" the meter is the battery. What ohms would the PV sense?

So one lead (the black one) goes on the threads. The other (red) goes on the center post...not touching the threaded part.

The outside of the connector is the ground (threads).
The inside is positive voltage.

Nothing has to touch the carto. But the carto should be connected inside the tank. Make sense?

 

[AttyPops]

Wait. Where is the screw? On the battery, or the tank?

I need a link. Need input.
