    JUST TOBACCO, no perfume, no caramel, no vanilla, no tba

    Thanks! I'll be sure to report my findings. I'm hopeful after reading this thread, even after all my failures.

    JUST TOBACCO, no perfume, no caramel, no vanilla, no tba

    Late to the party but great thread 'B'! I have tried and tried and tried and.. to DIY tobacco w/ dismal results; perfume, sweet, etc etc. I'll def try Hangsen before throwing in the towel. Tobacco is my ADV, so if I can find a similar flavor I've been vaping for over three years, I'll be...

    Recommendations: syringe bottle?

    Much agreed and doing well. Hope you are too! Since I don't use commercial vaping gear much (Gen head) I hide out in the Rebuildable atty and modding sections. Occasionally I'll peak into other forums. I remember those CE2 days! Still have a syringe mod or two laying about.

    Recommendations: syringe bottle?

    +1 on the Leur lock needle bottles. I have both sizes (the 30ml cap will fit on a 60ml bottle). They'll handle your VG liquid and don't leak, and you can use any gauge Leur lock needle you like.

    Z Atty Pro condensation

    Yup, as others have stated, it's the nature of a Genisis atty. You can lessen condensation by continuing to draw after you release the button, but it'll still be there. Being I have OCD, I dry the deck when I refill, but I'm guessing not many do...lol

    DIY: Custom PV Car Mount

    I've been waiting for a cup holder/mod station. Nice! Wonder if it'll work in my cup holder and fit my Orion?

    DIY: Custom PV Car Mount

    Necessity is the mother of all inventions, nice. You can also buy one here and there's another called the 'ecig caddy'.

    ss mesh wick

    The answer could be any of those mentioned, depending on who you ask. I myself use my stove's flame (natural gas). Some who use the non oxidized version use a regular lighter, as originally proposed by Petar K. And the vast majority seem to use a butane torch/flame of some kind.

    Ok, let's see who's in love with hybrids!

    I also prefer Hybrids to atties and like the seamless look. Although some mod/atty combos look Hybrid like, I like the idea of an all in one unit, but to each their own. There are more choices for the mod/atty combo. I wouldn't dream of being w/o my Orion V2.1.

    Orion V2 roll call

    If memory serves me correct, the biggest difference is that V2 had a non recessed button and polished finish.

    Condensation?

    If you have a manual batt, get in the habit of continuing to draw after the button push. It will help to keep condensation at bay.

    ZATTY Air Hole Question

    No problem, others have used the aluminum can fix w/ good results. There was also someone selling a prefab sleeve overseas but the can method is cheaper ;) Let us know how you make due if you give it a try.

    Genesis flavor feels very muted (AGA-T+)

    Gen's tend to shine w/ tobacco flavors especially, so something is amiss... Tobacco flavors are very strong in my Orion using 400 mesh/PG liquid and a 3/4 wrap of kanthal 32g. W/o knowing every detail of your setup it will be hard to pinpoint. You mentioned using 500 mesh. Saying that you're...

    ZATTY Air Hole Question

    Someone on another forum also posted making a sleeve from an aluminum can w/ the airhole size you want and putting that band on the inside; curved to fit. I had a link on an old post somewhere in the vaults..

    Liquid darkening in genny?

    We looked at this in detail on another forum when I posed the same question. We had all the usual theories to start with but found that heat was the main culprit. We had members that didn't oxidize at all, some just the top, etc. One member even had a top fed Genisis w/ a non oxidized wick...

    Orion V2 roll call

    I did early on when I was using the o-ring to align the wick and wick hole. But I reseated it and all was good. It was the vapor condensation getting around and down.

    I'm having muted taste

    My Orion V2.1 is my main vape and is the flavor king, so... Since you didn't mention a burnt/metallic taste we can probably rule out a short. There are a few things I wold suggest w/o knowing more or seeing your setup: - I think gorilla juice is high VG? Not sure, but if so, a solid wick...
