    Do you ever change out the wire?

    How will I know when it's time to change my SS wick?

    Hello everyone. I've been using my first rebuildable Zen-style atomizer for around one month now. I've read that the SS wick needs to be changed around once every month. How will I know when it's time to change to wick? Also, do I have to change out the Kanthal wire as well? If so, how often...

    Mine is already cracking around the air hole. I too would like to know how I can get extra tanks as its only been around two weeks since I've started using the lavagen

    What Flavor Are you Vaping Right Now?

    Vaping Ahlusion Kiwi Sea with Arctic Blast right now... Quite tasty on the Lavagen.

    I'd like to thank everyone here for your help. I Skyped with Dino last night and he got me up and running. I didn't do a few things right. I hadn't snugged up the large spacer under the positive post, so the thumb screw wasn't tightening right. Secondly, I hadn't checked the coils for hot spots...

    Very useful and thorough advice, Grannie. As far as changing out liquids, do you do anything to clean the quick before doing so. And the lavagen doesn't seem to produce the amount of vapor that my regular carto tanks do. Do the coils have to be wrapped all close together in front of the upright...

    I've got another question. When I fill the tank with another flavor, do I have to change wicks out or do you just change liquids?

    JonboyUSMC's Lava Tanks

    I didn't know that I had to. All the videos end after the initial set up, and they are very well done, especially Dinos, but I didn't know I had to prime anything. I noticed the silica wick where the coils are wrapped is almost black in color now. Is this normal?

    That'd be great. Thank you so much. So I redid the silica wick setup and it vapes better but it has a strange, burnt plastic taste. What could possibly cause this? I filled the tank and started vaping, could it be that the coils scorched the silica wick before it really started wicking the...

    I was just venting after a very frustrating first go with the silica wick set up, and I did follow Dinos video. Like I said, it works, it just doesn't work right, and I have no idea why it doesn't. I'm running out of silica wick already as i used up half of the wick trying to get it right. The...

    Ok I tried it and it hardly works. It doesn't produce a lot of vapor at all and it seems like too much liquid pulls up in the top chamber as its almost as if it's wicking too much and pulling a layer of liquid into the top chamber. I'm nearly about to give up on this. It's too complicated. The...

    Ok well I'll work with it and thanks everyone for the useful information. I think I might have a syringe at home in my ecig supply kit. I managed to get the silica set up I think but I can't test it without any liquid in the tank. I used up more than half of my silica wick getting this working...

    How do I fill the lavagen?

    JonboyUSMC's Lava Tanks

    I got the lavagen and trying to set it up, but I'm confused, do I have to oxidize kanthal wire and the silica wick, or just the silica wick? Also, I don't have a torch, just a lighter. Will this still work?

    Ahlusion

    Just got my order and filled my tank with Grape Vine with Arctic Blast. It's just a perfect level of menthol, meaning it hits like a ton of bricks. It combines the wonderful natural fruit flavors I've only gotten from Ahlusion but it's heavily mentholated like what I like about Rawr. I'll be...

    Ahlusion

    Thanks for sharing a comparison between Blue Fairy and Pluid. I was wondering how it compared as well as I've tried Blue Fairy but not Pluid. My order is on its way... I'll let you know how Arctic Blast goes... I ordered Kiwi Sea, Luna Fortuna, and Grape Vine...

    Ok I've looked at them, thank you. Should I get the 400 or 500 mesh or does it matter?
