All my mods part1

Raidy -
It's the coil that already exists on the E2. Yes, they have soldered it - so I guess they used lead-free. I hope the heat from the coil does not melt the solder.

Hi raidy! I just read all 456 posts in this thread and even though I understood only about 1% of what I read I couldn't stop! There's nothing hotter than intelligent men and you're the hottest!! Thank you so much for your kindness and sharing your knowledge with our modders.

Thanks

Well damn,,, what about funny NDNs?

Another PEN-Plug

and a Chinch-Plug

I love Chinch, it always has the best contact.

Master Raidy,
How many ml does the mini-plugs hold? and how much juice do you vape per day?
(I do about 10ml/day)

Only about 2.5ml.
You do about 10ml/day? WOW, thats a lot. Which strengh of nicotin?

I have a stock pile of 18 and 24 but I cut it down to about 14 with VG.
How does your atty like VG?

Now that's what I imagined an E2 (Raidy Type) mod should look like. Did you ream out the ceramic cup's centre tube to keep the air-stem in place or have you removed the air stem completely and having an alternative air supply. I like the idea of the stem wrapped in the mesh if it could somehow fit - purely aesthetically speaking of course. I know nothing of the mechanics of this mesh, even after reading the explanations. Like the Robinsons' Family Robot, there are just some things that 'Don't Compute'.

I haven't tried to drill the hole to widen it. The plastic (or ceramic) is very hard and I don't think it will take any messing about. All that's needed for a manual (central wick) is a small hole near the mouthpiece. For the autos, it would be possible instead to use a flexi-tube to redirect the airflow up to the side of the cup. I'm enjoying my semi-genesis mod because the original airpipe is still in place - and it's giving out a whole load of strong, very clean vapour! I've hit no dry spots yet - but I do get the occasional throat-biting drag.

If you want to drill ceramic these diamond bits will work great (with lots of water) You can get this set at EBay for about 4 bucks
You may already have a set of these but because so many people are reading this thread it may help somebody know.

Hi Raidy,

Have you tried sintered/ Porous Ceramic? For the last several months I have been experimenting, with some success. Getting the right combination of the ceramics porosity, the heating coil and the viscosity of liquid has been my main challenge. But occasionally I get it right and almost 3 days vaping/steaming before coil burns up. Now trying to develop a way to better deliver liquid. Have you tried Porous Ceramic?

Three days? That's not what I would call getting it right.

That's good shaka, the coils burning out can be fixed with the right wire/lenght/gage/solder etc. I want to know how it wicks (since you're working on delivery I'm thinking it doesn't wick). how does it cleans can you burn it free of gunk? what is your source of this Porous Ceranic, any links? i havn't tried it, think you may be the first to work with it SO TELL US MORE, thanks ahead of time

 

[justbrewit]

found this last night, great thread, great new atty, i'll be trying this some time after the new year most likely. i had to take a bit of a break from modding so that i could move. i've got some 5v regulator chips i'm going to be working with and a new atty to go along with the new mods is going to be great. thanks for all the info you have provided. like every one else on here, i'm eagerly awaiting part 2 of this epic new idea

After the second day I did dry burn with no prob but the ceramic was all black. It was still absorbing liquid and I was still getting full flavor. The third day the coil broke. Ive broken the coil on this thing maybe 20 time already. Before rewrapping the ceramic I washed in water nothing, then alcohol and ultrasonic. It cleaned up and it absorbed liquid but was still black. Then I decided to stick it in the oven and switched on the oven-clean mode for 20minutes and it was like new. I have been using this one Porous Ceramic in different cartomizers and configurations but my intent is to wick directly from a tank like method. I’m waiting on some diamond tip tooling for turning different ceramic shapes and different gauge wire to perfect these. I hope to make one that isn’t so MacGyver. Ithink I may have something once I match things right but I was hoping that maybe Raidy had already walked this path.

What advantage are you expecting from the ceramic over the SS mesh? It's a much harder material to work with so there should be some distinct advantage to want to use it.

 

[shaka55]

My main goal is to get away from filler materials and silica or glass wicks. But for now I’m using filler to hold the liquid and the Ceramic as the wick for experimentation. I turned this one on a lathe and it looks like an axel with to wheels on the end. This way the filler is lifted of the coil which to date has not burned, even when dry.
I can see this thing lasting for ever except for the coil and I can see milling the ceramic in different types of configurations to accommodate future unique tank mod’s. I know people believe silica or glass wicks are safe but I’ve notice these thing degrade to almost a powder like consistency or caramelize from E-liquid then crumble. If any of that loose stuff dries and gets pulled up while inhaling, well you tell me.
As for comparing it to SS mash I don’t know. I haven’t tried any of Raidy’s techniques which are a marvel to look at. I simply came to him to find out if he has tried Porous Ceramic.

........ I simply came to him to find out if he has tried Porous Ceramic.

I've tried Porous Ceramic. I get some probes from Ceratec, a company specialized for creamics. All i could say it the same - it works and it don't works.
It works for a very short time, then the scrap of unenvaporeable parts of liquid blocked the porous parts of the ceramic. There's no way to protect it from this effect. So i've given up. Maybe it works with 100,000% clean pure PG or VG, but not with our liquids.
At last every material will have this problem. The chinese fiber atty have the same problem. Rests of unenvaporeable parts of liquid blocked the capillary effect of the liquid transport, the atty runs to hot, the firbes begin to vitrify, a bad burned taste begins, and the atty goes dead.
Also my screen system has rest of liquid, but its very easy to wash them out under hot water.

Hope you understood the most.

 

[shaka55]

Hi Raidy,

I am in agreement. It also seems depending on the liquid, when the liquid cooks, it solidifies to a thick consistency further blocking capillary action. The best flow I have had is with very open pores but then I get flooding. And the only way to clean interior of porous ceramic is by high heat or acid wash. Anyway, its good to know you tried and its better to see your success. Good luck with all your projects and let me know when you come to Hawaii.

Aloha

A free beer in Hawaii too?

I think I should stop modding, and making a U.S. travel. One vapoure meetings in every state. I bring all my modds, and you paid the bill (steak and beer)
