    Maybe I'm alone in this feeling...

    The echo battery is good for carto tanks. Because it has a flat post connection and not a cone threaded connection the tank will sit flush against the battery and can't slip down. You may have to play with the connection or cut your own grooves where the tank meets the battery to get airflow to...

    The Echo Thread - Part 2

    What happened? I'm sure a grommet would work well. But it would have to be a tight rubbery fit so it may mess with air flow. I cut the bottom half of an echomizer. I believe the measurement was about 3/4 inch. Then I sanded the edge and got in there and rotary sanded the inside until it fit on...

    Let us know, Johnnie. And you may want to hang on to your manual unless you have another manual type battery. You need a manual to dry burn coils clean. For those who are looking, Discount Vapers has an 808 to ego adapter that has the slot on the 808 side. I won't be carrying it around unless...

    The only thing with the cotton is you have to be careful to keep it moist. So you have to pop off the tube every now and then drip on the cotton diaper. If you have a good air tube it's easy to ride the filler up with the tube but if it's old and frayed at the top it catches on the filler and...

    It's why we've moved to cotton threads. It's soft, You can make the coil first, secure it in the silicone with the center post and pop it in from underneath. Then simply thread the cotton wick through. There is no way you can thread silica wicks. There's you tube videos and such. with the...

    Yep...I've tried a lot of things. Remember, our rebuildables are sealed and can't drip though a hole in the bottom. There is just no way to let echomizer wicks sit in a pool of juice. A ton of soggy cotton is counterproductive like overdripping in the attys. You get nothing until the coil is no...

    Yes, SLEL...and the one who disccovered how to fix them and the one who pushed me to take them apart and rebuild them. So welcome back. You sure you just don't need new batteries? Or maybe the connections just need a good scrubbing....or even the charger. I will admit when I first became...

    MINI T-3 COMING SOON! Introducing the X2- T3 Clearomizer & Other clearomizers - IN STOCK!!

    ya know, it could be condensation buildup as well. I do get a gurgling when my t3s get low, but they don't get leaky. Every few puffs or so, take a moment and unscrew the t3. Blow through it. You'll find vapor has stayed trapped in the air tube. It's a common thing with all clearos. Some are...

    i want to step up to a bigboy battery. which one?

    Keep in mind that VV (dial-a-volt) for $50 at VFL is the same thing sold at Nhaler as the echo revolver for $30.

    Lulu does make a good point. Also, I've gotten my echomizer rebuilds down to a science but that wasn't always the case. I'd measure, snip, wrap...and a long time later put everything together only to have it way off the ohms I measured. Sometimes I'd have to start over. If I had a VV, I wouldn't...

    One step closer. It's another option for sure but the problem is all the echo stuff likes to be vaped at 2.4-3.0 ohms. Bottom coils don't stand up to high wattage. The turbos fry juice. So any hardware currently for echo is sorta pointless on a variable voltage battery and also apt to give...

    Cotton hangs on to and soaks in moisture so it's not a good idea to use them for the entire thing. The pollyfill holds the liquid but doesn't hand on to it as tightly as cotton. Then the inner filler is cotton. It keeps the fluid from flooding the wick. Since cotton holds on to the moisture the...

    I ordered two kits. One was radically different from the other. One was for a buddy. I opened mine and was a little disappointed. All the cartos had a funk to them that did nothing but stump the Charlz. I even completely rebuilt them and it was still there with cotton wick and completely...

    If you are a long time user, you probably already know about post adjustment but I don't want to assume anything. So I'll explain it for the benefit of others as well. With a thin piece of metal....pin...screwdriver... ect.....get between the threads and center post of the battery. Give it a...

    hehe. Seems I haven't been around for so long everyone came around to answering their own questions. The only one I remember through five pages is Cyrus' about the dual coil and it's mainly the ease of rebuild that keeps me from them. I can rebuild a single coil right to my sweet spot and not...

    Last I remember, you were also blessed to still have some of the original, unprotected batteries kicking around. You can get the 808 to 510 or 808 to ego adapters and use them on those batteries. As a bonus, maybe they'll work on the sealed batteries too.

    oh, you meant the replaceable heads? They are all interchangeable. No matter what the battery threads are. Which is good because if you want to try one in a lower ohm you'll have to get one meant for the 510/vision ones. V4l ones are expensive but nice because they have the flange. I got a bad...

    The echomizer is built like no other cartos. They are almost designed to come apart. It took two other folks on this forum to convince me to try but once I did, well it was my intro to modding stuff and the basics of understanding how these things truly work. With the Stardusts/ce4s/turbos...

    Thank's Cyrus for stepping in. Nice to see you here. Lots or good stuff from Los Marauder too! Had a busy few days there. There's a couple of solutions on modding an adapter to work with the new sealed connections on the 808s. For me, I had an ample amount of adapters. I simply took the center...

    i want to step up to a bigboy battery. which one?

    You'll have to ask Tumbleweed. He has both. I just signed back on and hear he may be ill though. The go-go has proprietary threads so I never used it. But Tumbleweed raves about it.
