Brand new rba bottom coil tank

[Sdh]

Oh wow! Got in from work tonight, checked my mailbox, and low and behold my order from VZ with my rba. I am too tired to even think about setting it up. Shipping is amazingly fast! I bought another type of ce5 (I think) from VZ. It looks very interesting. Now if VZ could get some ce3 bottom coils I would be happy. I love bottom coils.

Updates on using the new rba.

I was having a few issues with the wicks. Occasionally I was getting some flooding. If you get one you'll see there is a lot of wick material in a small space. Then mgmrick suggested that I cut out one of the wicks. You wouldn't want to pull it out because that might screw up the coil. That took care of the over wicking problems.

I am a fairly heavy vapor and take hard draws. That was resulting in the wicks blocking the air tube. Then it dawned on me that the wicks were very long and that I could cut them down, so I cut about a quarter inch off the length of wicks. This seemed to solve all my issues and now it wicks well without blocking the air tube and vapes like a champ.

I also decided to try 100% VG juice. I vaped a full tank with no issues at all.

These are very simple mods to the wicks that result in a perfect vape. Keep in mind that I'm still a noob and this is my first rba. Of course my next challenge will be changing the wick/coil, but the way it's working that could a good ways off.

Oh, almost forgot I'm vaping around 5v with the standard wick/coil on a Vmax. But when I first started using this I started with low voltage and worked my way up as the coil broke in.

Hope this helps.

what we really have here is a dripper that does not leak and only drops a couple of drops on juice onto the coil when we vape. So we reload the coil with juice without needing to take our bottle of juice out and drop another couple of drops of juice onto the coil. I leave mine standing up over night and no juice from the tank leaks down into heating chamber. Juice only drops down when you vape without flooding out the bottom heating chamber

MGM, from looking at it, it works on a vacuum when you draw it draws the juice through the hole. Looks quite simple but effective.

I will set one up first thing in the AM and give it a good work out.

Ok vapingzone cares these but who makes them. I may be interested in buying a bunch in bulk

Here it is on Alibaba: Shenzhen S-Body Electronics Technology Co., Ltd. - Electronic cigarette, e-cigarettes, healthy products - just search for BO-6 (oooh colors!) and it looks like the BO-8 is a top-feeding version... minimum order is 10. Not bad. By the way, Google Image Search is your friend.

There is a co-op on another forum with the initials NV.

I think (HB) dropped that one. I just checked the list and its not up any more. I will hit her on FB and see what is up.

There goes my budget - another toy to try

One more question, How do you fill it.

Don't forget about the wick mods. They help a lot.

One more thing I noticed today when I cleaned and refilled is to be gentle with the wick/coil. I was getting some juice into the connection and my coil was resting on the bottom air hole. I gently raised it just a hair and the problem was eliminated.

Are you guys having issues of flooding with this tank?

 

[BlueSnake]

Mostly yes. Look over my post #42 that explains how to correct it.

Please ask if you have any questions.

Thanks for the heads up on this RBA. I ordered one from VapingZone. But I was a little leery of giving up credit info on their website because their web page order form is not secure.

Looks like I ordered the last one from them...for now.

I have modified my VZ RBA into a steam machine. I will post my video later today. Once this atty is setup as a Genesis airflow design. Hold on to your seats!

Looking forward to it, Jimi. I've cocked the hammer and ready to pull the trigger on 10 of these bad boys straight from the supplier. I've been waiting a year for a rebuildable bottom coil. Am I the only one who likes a cool vape?

I also have the Penelope RBA which is also a bottom coil. But the Penelope is designed to use non-resistance wire on both ends. Having to connect non-resistance wires to the resistance wire is a real pain in the .... if you ask me. And the Penelope is expensive. I have my fingers crossed on this one.

FYI Just look at my post #42 and cut the wicks down first and it should work great for you.

I'm not saying that it doesn't work, and I'm not having issues at all with flooding my Penelope, which is a different atty than the one that is discussed here.

I'm saying that...fiddling with non-resistance wires is a pain. Thats all.

No problem, Thanks

Having a hard time getting one to feed. Using 50/50 juice. Any suggestions.

The air hole is clear of the wick I made sure the hole was clean. Not sure what Is going on.

I modded the 2nd one I have and made a nice little BF-RBA May pick up a few more over time and Mod them out not sure yet.
