Just got mine :/ first thoughts though .. 80quid it's delivered in a thin jiffy bag I've got enough filler to attempt one build and I have to wash the damn thing myself
I can't help but think what an anticlimax , it better be like an angel pissin on my god damn tounge :/

LOL, I have to agree, its a lot of money for what it is. You think they would pack it nicely rather than toss it in a jiffy bag.

Considering the costs that some vendors rob you for postage, you would hope for better packaging at least.

One bag of sera filler would go a long way between customers if shared out.

Just saying..

Customer service pays dividends

:/ I'm amazed none of my driptips will fit :s

[Skwoddy]

If some are too tight, try some sandpaper after you have taken the oring off, If they are too loose then possibly add another oring from another tip.

stitch I had the same problem , had to file a drip tip down, I thought the V2 sorted that out ( drip tip fitting ), still a very good bit of gear though

[stitch]

Yeh it's to tight for any of my drip tips ,and now I'm getting atomiser short when I screw on the tank bit , looks like its the tallest pole touching the bell ...
I'm gona take a different stance on the spheroid here than everyone else and say so far I'm not over the moon with it and I don't think the makers are the gods they are made out to be .. What I mean is for 80quid why should I have to file down the pole so it will work and file my drip tips so they fit
I'm slightly pissed off if you can't tell
S far I've had 10minutes of use out of it with no drip tip before it cut out with short until I unscrew the tank a turn

Unlucky Stitch.

I lay my coils diagonally across/between the posts, I don't raise them up . . . don't know if that might help you - depending on how you are fitting yours?

Touch wood I haven't had a single short, the last time I coiled my Spheroid it was a 2 minute job, how different to the Odysseus which generally takes me an hour and a fair bit of cursing to achieve.

Quicker now you have the Zapper I would wager

If I get it right first time then all's well Blakey . . . if I don't, then I can make it a days work quite happily.

In fairness though, the ready wires make coiling a lot easier.

How can you not get it right first time after all the practice you've had
I can strip- clean- lubricate- rewick & coil and re-assemble in under 10mins, 15 mins if it goes in the ultrasonic cleaner

I'm a girl Blakey and get easily distracted during the project.

Yeah I've only been doing it diagonally , with the long pole being a hair from shorting on the tube/bell I couldn't see any way possible of lifting the coil above it

Anyway shes growing on me after a few stern words were gona give it another shot
