Zen~ Family Reunion

[MissEmma]

Never realized we had so much in common.
I don't like anything with anise flavoring (black licorice tasting) in it either.

I'm in the club...no anise for me. I've tried it all and just can't do it.

Also, I couldn't watch igetcha's videos for the longest time because I couldn't stop looking at those teeth. I can hardly understand him either. He's much easier to understand in print..LOL.

Ripple, I asked to taste the peach and blackberry juices that Clint had, he didn't ask me.

And waaahhh, my Andyman just stopped firing!! It worked beautifully until this morning. Don't have time to mess with it today. Work will be a bear. First day back; one co-worker out because she broke her ankle last week. Another co-worker's mother passed yesterday

There is a video by the British reviewer, you know the guy who had bad teeth and now has good teeth

He had his teeth fixed? Now I can go back and watch some of his videos. Had to stop watching because those rotten teeth were making me nauseous!

Well damn.
Not going black... it's just a really smexy PV.
You know I'm a purple gal at heart.

Better than Blue!

\Make sure your wick has not slipped down in the tank and is not touching the bottom or the side of the tank.

Thanks for the tip. One of mine has the wick touching the tank and I was wondering if that was the problem.

Who doesn't love Ripple? Everyone does

I don't.....he won't sell me his blue Empire. Where is the love???

Chief couldn't offer juice to anyone. I bought mine G2's

Chief has never offered me any of his juice... But it sounds like lots of you have and enjoyed it.... Does he have any tobacco flavored? I'll have to go check it out after work tonight. Have a good day all!

you probably would not understand me then, my accent is a lot deeper than his lol

 

[stevo123]

and good morning all, just had an email of empire mods my new red pv will ship out today or tomorrow

Thanks for the tip. One of mine has the wick touching the tank and I was wondering if that was the problem.

Mookie, the wick touching the side of the tank would only matter if it's a SS tank. Touching the side of a quartz tank would not be a problem. He was having trouble with his SW.

 

[UnFettered_Soul]

Morning all.
I'm out of bed... that's about the extent of it....

What is the fix for the end of the coil glowing? I've been pushing this coil around forever and I can't get it to taste right. New coil?

I'm going to make a coil wrapping video soon. But in the meantime...

Take the end of the wire and bend it into a "U" shape. Put it underneath the negative post so that the longer end of the wire for wrapping the coil is between the negative screw and the wick. Pull the long end of the wire over so that it is touching the wick, then tighten down the negative screw.

Pull the wire so that it is straight and taught and begin wrapping the coils as low on the wick and as close together as you can. You want the coils snug but not so tight that they are deforming the wick. After you've finished wrapping the coil, bring the wire around the wick and wrap it counter-clockwise around the positive screw one and a half times and tighten down the screw.

Gently adjust the coils so they are equally spaced. Line the top coil up close to the positive conneciton. Once you have the coils even, loosen the positive screw and pull the wire so that the positive wire lead is as short as possible and make sure the wick isn't touching the positive post or screw.

From there, adjust the coils and/or pulse fire until all of the shorts are gone. I wouldn't suggest crimping either of the leads, the method above works better; it doesn't add resistance or eventually start causing shorts at the leads. It's the best, easiest, and most consistent method I've found.

Sounds a lot like Mike's original video, and what I've been doing successfully since the start of my genesis journey.

The only thing I do different is I typically only go 3/4 way around the positive screw which should be all but irrelevant.

Nice job putting the process into written word Andy.

I just realized with all of the drama, I never made a return from bash post.

I won't go into great depth but it was so much fun. I had a blast hanging with the whole group. It was great to hang with old friends and meeting new ones. The Hoffbrau Haus is awesome, Giordano's pizza is awesome. The Hilton sucks because they hosted a vape convention and said the only places we could vape was in the ballroom or our own hotel rooms, lol. I got to help people with their pv's and coils, i love to do that stuff, although Friday was a terrible vape day for everyone (myself included). It seemed no matter what I did, every coil on every pv I wrapped was giving me a hard time but things were much better on Saturday. Apparently, that anomally was affecting more people than just me. Mike guessed it was related to barometric pressure changes. I thought he was pulling my leg so I called him on it but he insisted he was serious.

I didn't spend too much money, I was really proud of myself. I snagged my MFA, got a bottle of G2 Captain Peaches from Clint at ENS's table and picked up some of Ripp's Retro Plasma from the CigTech's table. Both of these juices are superb, I'm ready for 100 mils of each, they are that good. Sleep was scarce throughout the weekend but the nectar was flowing. I'm really looking forward to Zenfest in August, so glad I don't have to travel for it, too!

What's the name of the reviewer with the crazy white teeth so I can find him on utube?! Wanna check out this kink method

Thanks man. I was thinking, how the hell am I going to write this so that it makes sense and isn't confusing. Glad it was comprehensive.

 

[Vapor2112]

You know, I really do think he's on to something with that.

I have days too where I'll use the same rotation of APV's that were hitting perfectly the previous day. If I don't mess with coils, ets, the same untouched set-ups will be champs again the next day. Some say they can feel weather changes in the knees, etc... I rely on my gennies.
