I just joined the Poldiac Club! I got my hands on a Cali Edition and I'm waiting for it to come in. This is my first Poldi and after reading this thread they seem a little high maintenance, but I'm really excited to receive it. I've learned a lot from this thread so far and thanks for everyone that contributed. But I have one question that I can't seem to find this answer to. I read that if I want to sub ohm in the Cali, I have to change the magnet switch to a spring? Is this true? And if so, can someone tell me why?
Magnet or spring, they make no difference in how hard the mod hits. They only affect the feel of the button press. Once you take one apart you'll see what I'm talking about. The spring is just so if you lose a magnet you can still vape (IMO).
Hi, if you do too much sub ohm can you fry your contacts? i know you arent supposed to go really low ohms on these but i did it anyways and not its not firing. do i need to change the contacts? does anyone have spare contacts i can purchase? the sites shipping is way too much to buy from there
Used a V1 Poldi as my all day carry for all of 2013. Ran builds on it between 0.3 - 0.2, quad or dual coil, not a single issue. Just like any other mod, if you have an atty short you can collapse the neg spring. Meter your builds.
If I were you I would just bite it and purchase the upgraded plastics and rhodium plated contacts. The Peek Ketron can take higher heat levels than Delrin can. Could be you just need to clean the contacts, maybe see what is damaged if anything.
The Peek is nice, but I never had an issue with the delrin parts. Those rhodium negative pole contacts are awesome though.
what is your preferred way to clean the contacts?
Soft clean cloth or white "magic rub" eraser.
