Vapir One owners read

[Frickr]

i got a vapir one from a friend, and have used it daily for a few months now. and i started having problems with it heating up.
upon taking the unit apart, i found a small thermal switch located on the inside wall next to the heating element.
i opened the connection and noticed a small amount of corosion on the terminals (much like points on old style car's cap and rotors) and filed them litely till it was all gone.

after i reassembled it, i fired it up. and it started heating almost instantly. and i didnt have to take a hairdrier to the bottom of the fan to jumpstart it.

ive also learned to pull a hit just like you would out of a pipe. this will stop any of the leaking commonly complained about. and other then that, i havent had any problems with the unit. for the money i dont think its that bad. and with this simple fix, its working just like it were brand new.

my old vapir had the problem of taking a while to get warmed up I made sure to put the top on firmly and not let anything spill inside the device

well been a week and still working perfectly. i can get some pictures up if you guys cant find what im talking about. also ive noticed it does a little better job maintaining temp since i cleaned the terminals. it stays between 170-185 with it on 185C
