I dumped the extenders for socks with no problem.

Double check you have put them on properly they are quite tight to get on you should feel a definite movement when they go on.
The plugs shouldn't need changing.

I did, but nothing to do with changing to socks.

Some report problems with removing the extenders and using a non resistive plug, I think I put a set of BPR6ES in my Chim instead of the standard B7ECS.
Lots of stuff about it if you search for extender removal.

That's what I put in mine, but for the extended electrode and slightly hotter rather than specifically because I'd put socks on.
