    Video reviewers, for the love of god...

    That would be Dethklok, song is Hatred Copter. If you're not really a metal fan you probably don't ever want to watch the cartoon Metalocalypse, but that's where it came from. I have no idea who actually plays in the band that does the show's music but I agree, it's about the tightest stuff...

    Dual Coil 510 Tank Cartomizer!

    Can't speak for anyone else, but in my case I guess the accurate description would be that it was flooding through the cartomizer and leaking out of the cartomizer's battery connection. Not being intentionally sarcastic, that's just the truth of it. FWIW, in the tank I was having issues...

    A PBusardo Tutorial - How I slot my cartos!

    By itself it should not, though to be on the safe side I would cut only one slot, or two slightly smaller than usual slots. I'm beginning to suspect that the condition of the o-rings that seal around the cartomizer (or, the grommets if that kind of tank) might be a contributor in some cases...

    Dual Coil 510 Tank Cartomizer!

    I've seen this a couple of times myself lately and it just happened again today on one tank. I won't be sure until I get home but strongly suspect an inner o-ring is damaged and letting air seep into the tank. If I'm right, this means the tank isn't maintaining that slight bit of vacuum (or...

    The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

    Interesting that GJ4 should jump up like that ... though I totally agree, it is a great flavor and I plan to order more when I'm sure it's going to be the "new process" that's more carto-friendly. I also want to find a really good caramel and try my hand at blending a personal version based on...

    A PBusardo Tutorial - How I slot my cartos!

    I have one and have done that, but in my experience it depends much on the cartomizer. Some take the punch OK without deforming much, but others do not. Hole size is limited somewhat as well; trying to make bigger holes I've accidentally punched through the center tube and created leaking...

    A PBusardo Tutorial - How I slot my cartos!

    OK, here's something I've been dealing with when slotting that I haven't figured out yet. Sometimes I end up with a nice slot but rather than a clear view to the fill material, there's a very thin metal film at the bottom of the slot that just doesn't want to grind out. It appears to be part...

    Cartomizerfillinator

    I've seen this as well, and believe commented on it before (either here or in one video or another). It's one of the reasons my tube/bottle fill adapters are made the way they are. Placed on the mouthpiece side of the carto, the design tends to create a bit of back pressure so fluids flow more...

    Cartomizerfillinator

    What I've been doing is taking a draw of water, removing the adapter (with the cartomizer still inserted) and shooting it into the sink, re-attaching the adapter and repeating for the first two or three draws. After that, cycling water or PGA both in and out of the carto does not seem to be too...

    Dca 306

    It is. I have the Icon 1.1 and because of the drip well a 510-510 shorty extension is required to be able to use the DCA306. Otherwise, as I think you surmised, the floating pin cannot make contact and will not fire. I've taken to keeping a 510 shorty ext. in my Icon all the time, as the DCA is...

    Lexington we are coming to your area in MARCH 2012!

    Well, if I'm still in the area -- or maybe even if not -- I'll try to be there.

    New COLORS are IN !! Red / Green / Rootbeer !! + Black . silver , Blue . Purple

    Those might be options that you'd add -- either holes in the side, or slots top and/or bottom. Something that would be functional but also dress it up a bit! (And if you made one that looked like a gear or clockwork piece of some sort, I would owe you unmentionable favors.) Also, I HAVE to...

    The Darwin From Evolv!!!

    No yelling around here. Just take the reasonable questions, comments, observations and statements of experience for what they are. :) It's normal for the swing arm to loosen up a little bit with use. After mine came back from repair with some upgrades, the swing arm was firm and almost...

    ACTv3 (Arry Carto Tank) is coming to Stormy's Vapor Cellar!!

    Goo Gone works pretty well as long as you're careful about not getting any on the inside of the carto. Another thing LOML suggested and, to my surprise, works pretty well is olive oil. It's a little bit more work but way less smelly or potentially dangerous. Either way I wipe down the...

    New COLORS are IN !! Red / Green / Rootbeer !! + Black . silver , Blue . Purple

    Yes. Yes you do. :) In fact, I believe at one point I sent you an email about just this kind of thing ... consider this your free proof-of-concept. ;) If I had to do it again (which I probably will at some point) I'd do another one with the edges squared, one beveled, and finally one with the...

    New COLORS are IN !! Red / Green / Rootbeer !! + Black . silver , Blue . Purple

    I was wanting some kind of spacer between the cap and the tank since I got my first BP. After looking around the closest thing I could find were some 1/4" x 3/4" brass disc blanks on Amazon. Thought I was ordering five - turns out they were in packs of 10 each, so I have about 50 now (!)...
