510 double long 2.5x cart mod.. Easy mod.

[Slickstick]

Due to my incredible laziness, I hope one of you guys mass manufacture a ton of 2X size 510 carts to sell to me and the public.

lol ME 2! I heard a rumor that TW might be coming out with extended carts for the 510 mega titan, and even mega atties. But I have not seen any evidence of that myself.

I thought that was coming in there mega kit.. but thats out and i believe they call it the mega kit cause it comes with the mega batteries and the mega charger.

Hunted for someone talking about it in there forums and nothing.

Marketing ploy? I did not get a newsletter about that at all. and I cannot find any mention of "mega cart" or "mega atty" anywhere.

I'm gonna ask on their forum

Sorry can only give a quick reply - details tomorrow (I hope)

3 510 carts.

Took the outer and inner mouthpiece caps out, hollowed them out, pressed them together.

Cut 3/16" straw (found 'em!) to length - here's the key for me - used hot glue to create a plug at the mouthpiece end.

Slipped straw rest of the way in: put a mouthpiece cap on the mouthpiece end (duh); used blue foam slug at atty end after putting in 62 (that's sixty-two) drops. From the same dropper I usually get 15 -18 drop in a standard cart - so 4 times as much.

No leaks, draws the same as a standard cart - don't know how long it'll last yet...

Gotta go to turkey day dinner - vaping all the way...

Way to go bogie! I made a 3 cart that held that many drops but it was made different with the straw and it was hard to draw a hit. Does your hit good?

As far as factory carts, it only makes sense that they will make longer ones eventually based on customer feedback. As soon as I bought my standard 510 I found out they came out with mega batteries based on customer feedback. I immediately ordered them. I believe The Electronic Cigarette Company, if anybody, would be the first to have these. If not TW. That is, if they aren't one in the same anyways or already partnered. They both have USA based companies. You have to think about the patent. There are many plastic companies that could easily manufacture these all throughout the USA. If we can find a longer design that works differently, much like Eclypse's mod. You could make your own patent and start producing. Weather it is one of the regular users who comes up with a mod that works or somebody way ahead of the game, ultimately I believe it will get done, one way or another. E-cigs have come a long way in design and usability. There are some sick looking mods out there. The best things come to those who wait, But better things can come to those who don't. I still think clear tubes for a cart and a silver screen is the way to go if it was made properly and there ends up being no ill effects from the screen. In fact I can't believe it hasn't been done already. I managed to make a 3 cart homemade one myself right off of Eclypse's double cart mod, using the blue foam as a cap, which was different design than the original cart but basic same principle. There are even people working on laser mods in place of the atty to greatly lengthen the life of the battery. I truly believe more people should get involved in local meet ups.

Well after reading VaporHead4Life's post here:

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/cartridge-mods/51588-clear-pvc-mod-prototype-idea.html

And the posts referred to in Eclypse's first reply to that post...

There's really no reason to post any further details of my idea - my idea is not new, except for my method of plugging the end of the straw with a bead of hot glue, which once hardened, should not be reactive with the liquid.

To answer VaporHead4Life's question - my method draws like a standard cart.

The only issue so far is it isn't wicking as easily - but that most likely is a function of too much foam in the slug. Need to experiment with that...

But, frankly, I think it's a lot of work that's not worth the results.

A manufacturer needs to make a molding process to simply make the liquid tank in a cart bigger.

No hot glue needed.. you can just heat the end slightly with a lighter (not directly on it) of the straw and pinch it and it will seal the end. That already been mentioned above somewhere.

I've messed with using that 1/4" tube with bad results.. I'll post more when i get time.. i have the kids all day till 9PM

Late last night i was playing around with one with a tube inserted in the fluid chamber insted of the double straw.

Ofcourse it was super tight and there was only about a 16th of an inch opening as the walls of the tube were thick.. anyways i tried to fill it anyways.

I first tried using a end cap from a pen.. the inner tube on a pen had a perfect size plug and even had a tiny pin size hole which i thought might work great as it would get the air out of the tube so it would be easiler to fill and would help with wicking.

NOT! Leaked! Crap! I guess ink is thicker then VG e-liquid.

Then tried the some blue foam inserted into the end to help plug it.. really didnt think it would work and nope! Didnt take long for the piece to leak the fluid right threw it!

I guess a sealed end is whats needed.. though i messed with that before closing the end with my finger and holding the tube under a slightly runing sink fauset.. guess what. Air traped in the tube prevented the water from filling the tube as expected.

So i guess if someone wants to use a tube, its gona have to be alot larger as a drop of juice just seals in air when it enters the tube. The only way around that would be to use a long syringe that can reach the bottom of the tube and fill from the bottom up so it will push the air out of the tube as it fills.

Probably would be different if the juice container was larger.

I dont have air trap probs with the doubled bent straw though, thats why i'm stuck with it atm.

Will have to hunt for a little larger straw and is it we can seal the end and have better luck filling it.

 

[Slickstick]

I have about 97 large bendable straws here I'll never use... Wanna send me some thin ones? .... lol

I had the air trap happen once when I was filling my clear mod tube with water. I had to adjust the blue foam. Too loose and it will drip all out, too tight and you can't drip in. I had to play with the foam til it dripped from the tube about once every 5 seconds. When it's resting on the wick it won't drip. I was able to turn it upside down and nothing leaked out of the tube. I was able to vape it dry. Multiple times. It works just like a pen. The bended straw, a straight straw, doesn't matter. Plug it on one end and it won't drip out the other end. Make the plug touching the wick loose enough to drip, Your golden.

I can not get a full 1/4" tube filled without leaking badly.

Last night i tried it with blue foam as a end cap plug.. no go! No matter how much i folded a huge piece and shoved it into the end of the tube the juice will eventually leak threw. If i get it completely air tight like with holding my finger over the end and try to slowly drip water into the tube, it wont drip in as its the tube is full of air. You'll just see about a 1/4" from the top of the tube with water and the rest air.

Seems impossable with a tiny 1/4" outside diameter tube with 16th" walls. I need something with thinner walls or a slightly larger tube that will fit in there oval shaped. Maybe then there will be room for the juice to enter the tube and push out the air so i can fill it.

I dont know how you got it working and all i can think of is that its leaking all over the place inside of your clear tube thats covering the 510.

Folded straw works like a charm everytime.. though is a ..... to refill as you have to take it totally apart.

Its nice to pick it up and know its good to go as long as your battery has some juice left hehe.. though i guess in the end.. its just alot easier to just have a bunch of cart filled and ready to go if your going out.

Would love to play around with it more but in the end.. its not gona look normal and you wont want to take it out so why bother if your only gona use it at home.

Hmmm.. now on a mod you may beable to do something alot larger and get away with it if its the same size as the battery tube.. future project.

I've had my eye on those portable lithium ion 3.7 volt batteries. Most mods I see are 2 batteries in a box but the chucks look like...... one?

 

[eclypse]

Just bought some 1/4" straws for the hell of it since there a little larger and prob what most people have or can get easily.

The damn thing works perfectly! Now using a single 1/4" diameter straw thats sealed at the bottom. I used a lighter and held the bottom close to the flame and pinched the end and its sealed. With that larger straw it totally encloses the juice chamber so i can now just fill the juice normally.. didnt count the drops as i screwed around making sure nothing was leaking and forgot my count

Hittin like a champ and since its going to be so freakin easy to refill this is gona probably be my new all day cart at home.. though its good enough to take on the road. I'd have to seal the 2 carts together so i dont have to worry about the thing coming apart and leaking in my pocket.

So no leaking! Hell i topped the cart off to the very top rim and it was sealed! hehe. Oh.. should mention that the straw was level with the inner lip/ridge in the cart. Used the slug as normal.

Next time i'll count the drops though i find that the plastic dropper bottle my juice comes from (Nhaler) changes sizes over time.. its from over tighting the cap. Though i have no doubt i'll probably vape on this thing for 3/4 to the whole day if i tried.
