I went to 5 in 3 years...2 junior proms (mine and gf's) first year, 2 senior balls (mine and gf's) second year and when I was away at college I went to my then (and now) current gf's senior ball

when I was in HS, I never dated anyone from my own...no one I cared to lol. my junior year I was dating a daughter of a freind of the family, my senior year was someone I met at a party during the beginning of my senior year and then dated often (she broke up w/ me when she found out I was committed to going to phoenix, az for college lol)..

I ended up going to prom all four years in high school - I wish I could go back to a younger version of myself and tell him/me to not bother with silly things like that. I barely remember a minute of it (no need to divulge why) and that money, which would have been better spent on mods in retrospect, is gone forever. Hey, that can be a new tagline:

"Memories are fleeting - mods last forever."

Just kidding, kind of....

same here....due to arrive, the red empire Larzis picked up for me :) atm it's out for delivery...

Waiting on vape mail.
My tracking number for the Orion V3 has finally started showing info, but I don't think it's in the states yet.

And I've traded off my cOBalt, so that should be in soon.

And.... waiting for the Juggy lists to get updated and paid for so I can complete the last trade I did. LOL

Hoping someone can give me some advice here - I got my new ZAU working great but when I went to attach it to my Poldiac the center post popped up and now it is completely loose. If I push up on the bottom connector even slightly the entire center post moves up. Is this something I can fix, or do I have a defective unit?

Update - I took the wick/coil out and the enter center post slid right out on its own. Upon examination it isn't held into the device with anything at all - no screw/threading, so am I to assume that it was glued in? Is it safe to glue it back in and, if so, what type of glue should I use and where should I put it? Honestly, this is pissing me right off.

The positive post can be tightened. Just be careful not to scratch up the post too bad. Small pliers and a rag should do it. And disconnect the top coil if it's already wrapped. Otherewise it'll get all twisted.

Not sure if you saw my update, but it isn't an issue of tightening the post. There is nothing to tighten it to - the entire thing slid right out, delrin and all, and there is no threading on it whatsoever so it must have been glued in (???).

Yup. That's definitely a "contact Jason" thing.

I did some research and found that this is a relatively common occurrence with the ZAP and ZAU - rather disappointing. The "fix" apparently is to apply some heavy duty super glue to the delrin right around the 510 connection. Other people said that they could see the remnants of the glue that Mike used but I see none at all so I have a feeling this one wasn't assembled properly - especially since it happened within minutes of using it. To quote the "Dude", this is a bummer, man.

I emailed Jason and I am not going to try to fix it until I hear back - hoping I can just get a replacement or a refund.
