Katana by POC ~ Show and Tell :)

[Arctherus]

So guys I've been talking to someone who blows glass tubes, and I told him about the dimensions of the katana tube, and asked if he could do it. He is going to see what he can do, if all goes well we have a glass supplier for tubes!

Sweeeeeeet!!!!

This will be great if he's willing to test fit them, as there were inconsistencies in the order from the UK.

Katana v3 coming tomorrow!!! Oh happy day! Got my wick oxidized.n.primed. Thx for all the tips.guys. one thing i have noticed.is.hella.people break their tanks. The zen thread is.rife with it.are they that fragile.or.are people.forgeting that while it resembles atube.mod it is far from it

Zens tanks are fused quartz. (glass-ish)
Katana is acrylic, not nearly as fragile.

The quartz is not that fragile either, it was just the first run of the mods, the tanks did not have the edges flame polished so they concentrated all their stresses on the edge of the tanks. The new quartz tanks have flame polished edges and should be far more durable than they were.

The acrylic tanks are still more durable but for glass the quartz should be much better now than it was. I have a few of the flame polished tanks and so far they seem much better in use (and less sharp )

Is it just me, or does juice consumption actually decrease when the wick breaks in? I filled up the tank yesterday (10am) and used it all day - and when I got home (9pm) it was a little over half full... and I vaped pretty consistently all day... lol

Agree, it's great. But I lost both my tanks in a week at work. my mods don't sit on a desk, or in a case.
They get used, and used hard, haha.

I find that mine uses more juice once the wick breaks in, b/c once it really starts wicking, I tend to just chief on it non-stop until it needs a refill. Though I must say, and I tend to burn through a lotta juice while trying to break it in! Especially when I turn it upside down and fire it until juice starts to drip out of the wick

no joke rwechsler I have still been playing with figuring out the right siz of wick lately I have been cutting my length of wick right around 45mm long and probly 30 mm wide but I rinse my mesh in instant hot boiling water then finger wipe it dry. then I put juice on it and burnit as soon as the fire goes out I put drops of juice on it to build the oxi and its still so hot it vapes as it coats the wick one end to the other.

ps does anyone have a reference or hookup for a long blunt needled tip for syringes that fit the original hole in the v3 for filling. I modded a needle tip bottle and a different blunt tip needle that fit inside the needle tip bottle needle to extend it so I didn't have to tamper my wick and coil setup when refilling. (due to me liking the longer wick setup for holding reserve juice when I just reef on it like im chuggin a beer.)
