mine did also, Elbows. This thing was pretty cool... for about 3 hours. It just stopped working extemporaneously. Batteries are charged up, all the connections are clean, it just doesn't produce any vapor. No idea what the problem is, any ideas, James?

no, it did not come with an allen key. Also, the carto-tank I'm using is brand new.

Hold the phone, just tried using an old cartomizer, and it works perfectly. Hmmm, I think I'm done with alt-smoke carto-tanks from here on. Come to think of it, I don't really want any sort of cartomizer. James, what kind of atty set ups do you find most favorable?

My GLV would do that, work with some cartomizers and not others, sometimes work for a while and then quit, sometimes even worked with ones that had not worked previously. Finally something fell out, a solder bead I suspect. It is completely dead now. I never got any response when I inquired about repair.

i have re-coiled my phoenix clone twice now, and each coil gets a little better.

i don't have a smart mod or an meter, so i am guessing, but i think the resistance is right about 2.1-2.2Ω ...

everyone has these things now, average price for the phoenix clones is around 10$ ... got mine from discountvapers for 9 ... and 3$ for 6 pre-wrapped coils ...
i've been changing them about every 2 weeks, they could probably go longer than that.

i can get 10-11 drops in it, and that gives me like an hour of chain vaping, or 3 hours of trading off between devices. (i normally chill on couch at night with dena and the twist both, with different flavors)

now that it's working again, I'm quite satisfied with my new gizmo. The amount of vapor it produces is absurd, and it's quite smooth relative to my old 510's.

If you guys don't have some already, pick up some Invalid Link Removed. a little drop wiped around the threads keeps it turning nicely and from locking up (recommended for any metal mod body threads... not the atty connection).

Well, I have now passed the 1 month mark of being cig free, and it has been very easy for me. No cravings what so ever, I think the only time I've thought about it during this month is wondering what it would actually taste like to have one now. Not that I have much desire to find that out.
My everyday out and about and work vape is my twists with vivi novas, which is working very nicely for me. Been trying out some other tanks and direct dripping and such at home, and I have to say I do enjoy the dripping. Using a generic 2ohm 510 bridgeless atty for that, so I guess there are better ones to be had aswell. The HH.357 gets alot of praise atleast.

Awesome! Congrats. I buy Cisco/Avid bridgeless attys and already get a couple months from them @ $8 each. I can't see paying the price for his .357 version to get a couple more weeks.

Yeah, I could probably try one of those first to see how I get on with them. I guess that the difference between the flavor you get from a generic atty to a .357 is not as great as going from a clearo to an atty anyway - which is what I've done, and the atty delivers alot more flavor and th. I have heard people using the same .357 for over a year, but they might not use it exclusively then.
I did go to JR custom turnings website because i wanted to order his 50cal mod to be my designated dripping device (rediculous and cool at the same time, certainly a conversation piece) but they don't ship outside of north America.
