What's in your hand right now?

I'm hoping when the juice dries out it may resurrect itself... but right now it has a mind of it's own and it decides if it want to vape at 5 watts or 75 watts... :(

I dont know if this works but ive heard it works on cell phones.
Apparently if you put a phone inside a tub of raw rice it absorbs the moisture.
Might be worth a try.

They say that if you leave your phone in the bowl of uncooked rice overnight then little Asians will come out and magically fix the water damage....
sorry couldn't resist :O:--P:-D

Only difference is that rice won't absorb the sugars and other sticky stuff from juice, worth a shot though.

If all else fails, rinse with hot water to try and clean out the gunk (i know it sounds counter intuitive) and leave to rice dry for a few days.
I've saved quite a few computer keyboards and other gadgets this way, but also sent some other things to a permanent grave ;-)

I did make a vain attempt at opening the Snow Wolf and removed a few screws but it didn't come apart... I must say I was tempted to try the warm water and rice idea... if it still has a mind of it's own tomorrow I will try that... have nothing to lose... :rock:

Maybe give it a soak in some isopropyl alcohol, the alcohol will displace the liquid, dissolve the sugars and evaporate in a few minutes.

Isopropyl alcohol instead of water

That could also work.. for some reason I usually get good results with warm water when it comes to juice, it does just need at least 4 days to dry out, or maybe "steep" is more accurate? :p

Water will work but not tap water, that thing will leave other nasties behind after it evaporates. Some Evian maybe.... ;)

Hmmm. Would think it would come apart fairly easy by just removing the 4 screws in the battery box and then popping it out.

Where did the Melo III dump the joose from... the AFC? Maybe something associated with the vape lock problems you've had with it?

Yip I took out the 4 screws but nothing budged... I'm not the world best handyman and I tend to be dangerous with a screwdriver in hand... I don't have the patience and tend to use force rather than finesses.

Yip the Melo III 4ml version developed an airlock and I loosened the juice fill and if you leave it like that gravity takes over and the entire contents of the tank is dumped through the airflow at the bottom. :confused:

I checked all three of my SWM's, found that I have two versions. Two have 4 screws, one has 5 (the extra down in the the bottom on the top left side). IOW 2 down in the batt trough left side top and bottom, and the 3 on top in corners. Maybe tomorrow I'll try to take one of mine apart.

Still can't understand why you and others have had all these air lock issues with the Gemini and now Melo III when I have not on any of mine.

I found a 3rd screw under the sticker... I got it open and from what I can see there is very little juice inside the mod... but enough to cause an issue.

Yip the airlock issue is a boggler... I don't see much reported around the globe... but it sure is a airlock issue... I wonder if the airlock issue only appears after the cCell gets a bit bunged up with use? Even my new ORC tank gets an airlock.... and this only came after a week of use so maybe it's a cCell issue after major use?
 
In my hand right now, is a colleagues mod which I have to pitstop....

I can't believe this oke is still alive!!!

Did an exchange with a retailer and got this. Nice.....gone through two tanks already. Whats the difference between the 0.3 and 0.5 ohm coils....apart from the resistance?
