Lol well yes I did come up with the tea bag ...but not the pyramid ones..it's hard even to find those in the uk and I wasn't sure if the nylon might give the same problem of loose fibres but I am looking to get some PTB to try because I can see that the loose fibres won't be any problem with the PTB's because the material is woven together and without doubt it sounds like the nylon material wicks much better than the hemp does. It's been great to see how everyone has been developing and improving on the idea.

A fantastic UK innovation!
BTW, Tesco do the PTB for 99p a box

I've got to say this really, really works miles above any standard cart filler.

When I read about it here I realized my Green Tea I drink uses the same material for their bags as Lipton uses so I got to work with one of the bags. Tip to anyone that doesn't want to dump out the tea, brew as normal then open it and dump out the used tea. The nylon mesh is washable with a quick rinse, so no tea taste in your juice.

Using the tea bag I can go 5-6 vape sessions (I use mine like a smoke, 10-12 drags every hour or so) on my 510. With a standard cart, one maybe two sessions before I need to top it off to get any kind of decent vapor that isn't air.

Agreed, it's a great mod!

Some thoughts:

Can you post the height of the material you've used with success in the various cart sizes, 901, 510, etc.? I've cut one too short and had to put a spacer in the cart for that one to wick better.
What about putting the crimped end facing the atomizer, instead of towards the mouthpiece end. Might this provide a greater method of transfer to the bridge? I'm trying it now on a 510 atty and it seems to be better, still not certain though.

Amazing mod, i definately appreciate everyone involved in bringing this to light. Great videos and excellent execution!

pbusardo · 08-13-2009, 07:12 PM

I'm having a huge problem with this mod.

I CAN'T FIND THEM!!

It appears that Wegman's in Rochester NY does not carry the Lipton product. So I bought PG Tips, figuring a pyramid is a pyramid, I mean they were all built by aliens right? Wrong! These are paper, similar to a standard tea bag.

Did you know that I just can't say or type tea bag without cracking a smile?

So off to Tops I go tonight. Hopefully they will have them. I'm SICK of 5 hits before I have to top off again.

I've been stubborn up until now and I'm ready to try.
