Sweet! I have some Lipton Tea Bags laying around but not the PTB. Do I the TB the same way as PTB ?

I used my last LPT for a month of solid vaping. Finally got rid of it as I was sick of looking at the ratty thing...LOL It worked as well on day 30 as it did on day 1. THE best filler out there. I have a Screwdriver w/ 901 atty. I just carpet roll a half a LPT and trim the stuff that sticks out of the cart.

Hey guys and gals. I have been following this forum for quite a while and finally signed up. You folks are great and very informative.

Quick question-
Tried the PTB mod on my 901 and it leaks like crazy out the bottom of my atty and the air hole. Am I doing something wrong? Lucky for me I found a sealed manual batt for it so it wont destroy my batt, but it is quite messy. Am I doing something wrong or is this just something I will have to get used to. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Porkchop

Porkchop,

Perhaps you aren't using enough material so there are gaps large enough to allow the fluid to drip?

I don't have a 901 so hopefully someone can chime in.

Gooney0-

Thanks for your response. Thats what I was thinking so I just tried what you recommended and so far no problems. I will give you an update once I try it for a full day.

This forum is great and without it I don't think E-Cigs would have been an enjoyable experience for me. Thanks to you all, I have been analogue free for two months with no desire to go back. If only I could get my girlfriend on board. She quit with me and still struggles with daily cravings.

Anyways, you guys rock.....

Regards,
Porkchop

This is just my 8th day of vaping and my first post. This forum was such a help with selecting an e-cig. I did a lot of reading. lol

Yesterday I tried the LPT. What an improvement. I had the box of tea sitting around a long time, didn't like it a lot. Now that I found a use for the bags I'm glad I hung onto it. Sometimes being a pack rat pays off.

I've been using the fan-foled version with the PTB and really like it, have been at it about 2 weeks. Still going strong. Thank goodness this forum is here to help, because you guys really do.

One more tiny little tip: Be sure to get all the stray pieces of polyfill out of your atomizer. Using the PTB, I was still getting a burnt plastic taste. I discovered a polyfill thread about 1/8 of an inch long stuck to the bridge of my atty. Took it out, burnt taste gone!

Heylo guys and gals,

First post noob here, but i've been reading and reading 'till my heads a spinning.
I'm still waiting for my first PV to arrive, I had one on order but the FDA snatched the shipment, luckily I have another one on the way, should be here in a couple of days.
So I've started to get some supplies sorted out. The Lipton teabag thing was a bit confusing, I thought it was any box of lipton tea, I did find a box of PG Tips with the pyramid but was doubtful so I put it back, after reading another thread, it turns out they're made of the wrong material, then I found lipton pyramid at Stop n Shop, It's a small box and there were only 3 flavors so you have to hunt for them. I found Heritage brand VG $5 4oz at Wholefoods......now get this, I went to my local CVS and asked the pharmacist for propylene glycol but they were baffled and hadn't heard of the substance, she said what are you using it for?...I said ...uh..uh...eh..uh to use in a fragrance recipe..

. - so I said how about vegetable glycerin, they said nah, try a grocery store. So I guess I'll try for the PG at my local pharmacy. I'll be ordering some juice tonight so I should be set to go.

I'll be hanging everything on this so wish me luck folks
