Hats off to vapor-freak, I pulled the trigger and I'm vaping with it all within 36 hours ... Ordered my Euphoria off them on the 1st, was sent on the 1st, not here yet  .Its in frankfuert still  Sorry to hear that ... Maybe mine was just at the right time to get each connection ... However, it's worth the wait, I'm getting more flavour and clouds than with my Kayfun 3.1 (Clone) in fact I may let it go to finance a further Xplora !! |

Hi guys, thanks for all the help I used .3 kanthal - and I think it was 10 or 11 wraps - I'll have to drain the Kayfun when I get chance and check all the suggestions you've made - tbh I might just go back to my usual coils - never had an issue til I tried to do a micro coil... they just looked so easy and everyone is doing them - I just wanted to be part of the club!! As suggested, don't give up on micro coils, I now find them easier to build than getting equal wire spacing on 'normal' ones!!! |

It's alive !!! Silly sod that I am, didn't take photos of the 510 repair!! However I did have to desolder some wires to be able to get to the 510 + post so here's a glimpse of the guts of the VTR    I replaced the 510 with one I ripped out of an old EGO type tube. Then just placed the remains of the rotary section on top and fitted an air controller, which will stay in place. |

Hi Wobblybootie, most people just ignore the difference for calculations and use AG as VG (if that makes sense) Cheers!! That makes it simple. |

Hi folks, Just wondering if the amount of water in AG (most suppliers say 10%) should be accounted for when making up assorted mixes or just use it as standard Veg Glycerin ?

The ones with the rotating 510 were playing up all the time, that's why they changed it in v2 I didn't know that ... the rotation WAS fine never had a problem with that bit, just the 510 made from chocolate or the same metal that Honda made the camshafts for the early VF750 |

While I butcher (repair) my VTR, I got to wondering about MOD's and choices, as you do! I know there are a large number of Provari users and I can understand why, but nobody mentions the baby one, the Provape I think it is. Is it not popular?? Or are all 14500 users just Mech Mod fiends. I ask this because I like the 14500/650 format ... (GUS 16 and soon to receive Xplora). Or maybe no one has yet admitted to owning something that if it came in pink looks as if it belongs in an Anne Summers mag?

Search JB Weld. A drop would do it as I've used it to fix a gearbox mount and it's a liquid metal which dries and can be sanded (not much use here) and stupidly strong. Worthwhile having in as it's handy to have Good idea ... I'll get some I think, I have a few other things I could use it on. Well I have managed to remove the factory fitted 510. (destroyed it in the process) What a complicated setup. The revolving bit is severely over engineered!!! Yes it's nice to be able to turn the Atty and I used to use it to unscrew whichever atty was fitted at the time. The whole thing is / was made up of TWO floating positive contacts one on top of the other. The lower fixed and the upper free to rotate. I wonder what the voltage drop was?? I'll try and photograph the outcome. |

No threads left to use air flow controller and a bit difficult to drill and tap into it seeing as the centre pin is still in place Removing the 510 is the problem at the mo ... Am working on a fix ... watch this space

Could you not get the airflow controller from vape escape and super glue it in place? Possible, maybe as a last ditch repair ... I'll investigate, |

Hi folks, ... VTR 510 thread is no more  , gone, defunct, buggered or put another way the thread is stripped. Don't ask ... cross threaded one evening after a few too many wets. Any ideas how to remove the 510 assembly? I have got it stripped down and from the underside it appears to be push fitted into the main chassis. I have attempted to push it out without success and I do not want to put any more pressure on it.  Any ideas? If not then I may have some fun with the electrics and consider another MOD. It would be a shame to lose it as (for me) having the atty 'protected' is a major plus point for being out and about. A Gizmo may be an alternative but I like the juice capacity and the vaping time a 650 battery gives. Having to carry spare juice or attys and batteries defeats the object. Besides I do not look good with a 'manbag' before you suggest it, thank you very much!! Cheers in advance |
