Thx....sounds good, and looks very nice......

So I need a ggts, and stealth rethreader ring? Are there any other parts i should be looking for?

no you just need the ggts, the rethreader ring isnt nessecary

actually you just need a few parts, the bottom, w/ post, the switch the bottom tube and the telescope, thats all you really need if you just plan on using it w/ a zag, top tube too if you want 18650 mode. they sell them peice by peice if you can get them when theyre in stock at a greek and a US vendor

You need everything except the collector tank -- but I think they work great and an adjustable air draw 2 years ago was extremely revolutionary and they're still trying to duplicate it today........but I'm a fanboy so there!!!

Here here.... Well put.

My SW came today. USPS took 4 days to deliver it 300 miles.......

Anyway, it's OK. I like my old Zens better. The SW has too many parts, and is not as easy to adjust the air hole draw. I also don't like the screw top or the locking ring as it wants to slide into the locked position if I'm not careful. I also don't like the metal tank. I will be wanting a quartz tank as soon as they are available............I'll probably keep it, but I doubt it will get a lot of use........

I realize I don't like most of the things that make it so popular.......LOL

The locking ring should not move around of the cap is on tight.

Well, that's another problem. The top cap is not screwed down as tight as it could be, but it has to be that way to get the air hole in the right spot.

Yes, I know I am supposed to be able to loosen the screw at the bottom of the tank, make the air hole adjustment, and then tighten it down again. However, the screw in the bottom of the tank has been tightened down so damn hard that I can not get it unscrewed. Since I live alone, that's a problem, so I'm having to use a workaround.....a looser than normal top cap........LOL

You don't have to loosen the screw, just keep turning after the top cap is tight and the tank will start to turn to allow you to align the aire hole. Mike showed me this a VC

 

[andyman97]

You don't have to do that... Tighten the cap down all the way and spin it around until the air hole is in the right position.

I know others have said it already, but to make it more clear. The tank is just like he other zen tanks in that its just on the Atty portion over o rings. The bottom. Portion that's threaded to the body is threaded on instead of seeming like one piece like a zen tube APV, but the tank itself is just slid down with o rings... Just turn the whole thing line others have mentioned.

What you referenced that takes removing the atty is I you want change the position of the whole wick hole / the atty itself.

If you haven't, watch Junky's vid, it will all make sense.

Thanks Jason!

Just got my shipment of juice, kanthol, and blue o-rings for the ZAP! + an ElectroNicStix led flashlight key chain to boot.

Now I'm all set. The only problem is....I have no idea what flavor to vape first If that's my biggest worry today, life is good.

Thanks, Out and Andy. That works and I will leave it like that. However, the top cap is so tight that the lock ring will not move. That doesn't make a lot of difference since I don't plan on using it anyway.

I just now wondered if the screw in the bottom of the tank is one of those backward threading screws and maybe that's why I can't move it???

Anyway, the next time I see my DSIL I will have him adjust the screw and top cap alignment. He is not a vaper, but is a whiz at fixing almost everything.........LOL

Thanks, Vapor. I did watch Junky's vid before I did anything to the SW. I will fool with it a little more when I'm not so irritated with it, or just let my DSIL deal with it........LOL

evening guys.. i like that i have some catching up to do..

howdy ed.....

I finally got Indy Vapor.

Now I have drop tips. I bought 10, so I shouldn't be faced with that issue anytime soon.

They also had a bottle I thought might work for me. I got a few of them. Hopefully they will work. If not, np, they where cheap.

I picked up some plastic needle tips that fit onto my 10ml bottles. I'm not sure if any of this stuff will work as intended. I'll let you know.

Fill a couple of these to take with me on the road, and I might be okay. They also had 3ml syringes.

Here's my booty pic:View attachment 170261

I was going to suggest something similar for you.
Something along the lines of this one:


I don't know how well they would travel.
Ones you can close with the lid and add the needle later may work better.

 

[UnFettered_Soul]

did you say pink pchela



the short answer is yes bumpi, you can use a rethreader ring, or just the telescope to get the 18350 look ahh screw it, ill just take some pics for ya lol

i didnt include my spring in that pic bc its embarrassing to look at



remote start is hard to live w/out, only thing is i have to remember not to leave my car in gear or it could end up through a wall if i start it

Now you're just showing off....

haha, very true. I never meant to put it down, I should have said, for what he wants to do w/ it for the ZAG he wont need it, so it may be better to just buy the peices he needs from the US or greek vender.

i know others have posted but i wanted to jump in too just the tank, the threads are on the tank.

unless you want the airhold/wick to be somewhere else other than in front of the thumb switch yuou should not have to do that

Now you're just showing off....

yeah i have 6 GG's but still not as many as ripp



j/k theyre all the swame one lol

 

[kiba]

tiff i got your top cap today, should not be a problem to fix as the chunk taken out of it is not that deep, its just the one on the front right i did not see any others? also it looks like the logo is intact which is good as thats the only place i cant sand bc it will come off.

 

[tybin]

yup. that's the only place. I dropped it the first day I had it Thanks for taking it on
