That will be difficult unless you can get it out and look at it. It can be taken apart fully bob. What do i need to do? Does the fact the switch uses magnets effect the amp limit? Can the magnets repelling power decrease? If so how? |

It stuck down last night but that was when i was getting shorts and the problem was found to be in the base of the spheroid. 510 plate touching both pos and neg posts. Fixed now.
Also got button stuck down with the emow but once again due to shorts with the coil getting crushed.
Spheroid much better after putting spare posts on the pos post was much higher than the neg where it touches the 510 pin.
When it did happen i just turned the atty breaking the connection. Probably lasted for under a second.
Tested battery voltage after and they seem to be fine...

Decoy you might have to do a picture guide for me?
Got the mini fogger wicking lovely at 1.3 ohms. Then it got floody but not leaky, yet. Its on edge cant quite decide whether it wants to leak.
A tiny bit more wick in the channels on next refil me thinks...

Okidoki...
So what is the amp limit of the switch on my gizmo?
How do you find out the switch amp limit?

My dad swears by leatherman... I fixed the issue. Misfires turned into shorts last night  I think this was caused by the positive insulator been too low in spheroid. Not new bits on gizmo  . Changed bits on base over to the ones that pep provided with Spheroid and all is good now. Fingers crossed. Scary stuff when button sticka down. |

I got the spring loaded firing pin, new lo pro button and new magnets today.
Seem to be getting misfires?
And with the new firing pin does anyone else find it tough to get their spheroid to sit right when fully screwed down? The slightest knock and it's not tight down anymore...

Recoiled and rewicked single coil kanger heads are more reliable than recoiled and rewicked dual cool heads imo.

 Upgrades arrived for my Gizmo, New Lo Pro Switch, Spring Loaded Firing Pin and New Magnets. Loving the new switch feel much safer with it in my jeans pocket... |
