bryphi. I think the o'rings are used on the switch or carto top as a type of extender for the kick.. what kind of carto's are you using. I cant use the boge without the kick..vapes on the soft side

I'm using boges. I mean, it is still better with the kick, but the boges are performing better than before.

yes.I was thinking it should really state it on the website
Some people just like to look like human fog machines... :D

In all seriousness though, everyone has their own "sweet spot" so to speak. More vapor, stronger throat hit, more nicotine absorption, whatever... If sub-Ω keeps 'em away from the cancer sticks, they think it looks cool, or they like waiving their hands like a maniac trying to clear the air of man-made clouds... I don't really care; I say all the more power to them. It isn't my thing, but I can see why others might enjoy it. Good thing there are (literally) hundreds of devices available so that each and every one of us can find what works or what we enjoy the best.

As for the whole sub-Ω and Zenesis thing... ENS' product descriptions do not state that these devices weren't designed with sub-Ω vaping in mind or rather were designed specifically to prevent sub-Ω vaping. Everyone doesn't know Zen's (or is that Zen's insurance company's?) stance on sub-Ω coils.

I do not get the whole sub-ohm thing. What's the point of all that vapor?

I love me some vapor..... I also love me my face and head. I enjoy being able to see out of both eyes. Age notwithstanding.

I remember watching various vids about this device or that atty and thinking "how the hell are they getting all that vapor?"
Well, my vapor production improved when I moved to better (up from eGo types) equipment.
It improved again when I went to rebuildables. Never could get a nova type to work without leaking everywhere.

Surprisingly, it also improved when I went with lung hits instead of mouth/then inhale.
It can still vary, given the day/juice/wrap/device.

Would I like more? Sure! It's cool as chit.
Will I risk my safety for it? No.

I have two beautiful daughters = beautiful grand babies I intend to spoil rotten in my future.
There is also a whole community of people that would enjoy continuing to vape, and my personal news headline would adversely effect all of that.

The particular sub ohm trip to get a bigger cloud..... not worth it to me.

I agree, but that's up to the management of ENS. It may prevent the proselytizing we saw today. Of course, they could always just switch to magnets...

Speaking of magnets... I received mine yesterday. I didn't order them to circumvent the "safety" feature of the Z2... Rather, I find them far more comfortable for my poor, broken multiple times fingers. Left handed, I activate the switch with my pinky, but with my right hand I use my ring finger. No matter how hard I try, my fingers just don't have the strength or the pain tolerance to depress the spring. Sorry, Mr. Zen and associated insurance underwriters...

The "original" Zen all came with magnets.
Funny... my tiny arthritic hands just couldn't press that button right with the magnets.

Some still use them, and prefer them.
The springs are simply easier for me.
If the magnets work better for you, use them.

matt. my post thus morning didn't have anything to do with your posts. that guy has been going on and on with an attitude elsewhere. I got tired of turning the other cheek

I know and thanks, I think seing the post was his catalyst..one a good note I did not a .7 volt difference drop under load with my older imr and my newer eh batt. so I think some new batts and I will be good to go woohoo.

as far as chargers go wignut I can only recommend the nitecore, one charger for all my needs.

sorry about your finger libertarianate. I order some mags too and like them. has a nice throw and is adjustable

cant remember who told me just to man up on here...:p

I'm sure no one is interested in how poor z2 conductivity is out of the box (before being modified), but here is a video anyways.

When are people going to learn

Lots of folks recommend the nitecore. I like that it has 4 bays and doesn't require spacers for the smaller batts.

But.... I still say my batts didn't last as long using it.
I think even Mike himself said that the slower chargers are better for longer batt life.

I've gone back to my old reliable trustfire charger.

youre right about a slower charge is better for the batts. if you just charge one bat the charge is .75 amps. but what you can do is charge 2 batts on the same board. like slot 1 and 3,2and4. I charge my nimh on there like that and it drops the charge rate.

Yeah, I never did less than 2 at once.
Maybe it was just the one I have.

I'm putting it up for sale soon though.
