I discovered I had a deadly allergy to snails (escargots, or any snail for that matter) when I almost died from asphyxiation after eating limpets. I thought they were just clams.

Im sticking to stainless steel

A quick note regarding Corey's post on the juice clogging the button. From my own experience of using the Vapage bottles, I found that the screw top is not quite the quality of the standard bottle top. If the top hole is not drilled out perfectly or threaded back on too tight or not quite seated correctly it will have some leakage. Plus if you are not used to the softer squonk action due to softer plastic and squonking the heck out of it, it may have some leakage at top as well. Just my :2c:

Looks like that 510's gonna need some adjusting! Let me know if you have any questions that the instructions don't answer for you.

Glad you got it, RuDawg!!! :thumb:

Yes definitely, the Thump sits pretty high on my REOs, even with the 510 dialed all the way down. I'll be tinkering tonight for sure! I'll probably swap the button for stainless too.

Funny how it worked out. Didn't get home from the Eagles game until 3am, woke up late for work! Boss was cool with it, he's a big sports fan too. As I was getting ready for work, I realized that if I worked late to make up the time, I won't make it to the PO today, so I stopped on my way to work (only logical solution, right?!). I had a package to drop off anyway.

Thank you Corey, this little mod is wonderful, and really packs a punch! After a few vapes, I already think I may have to increase my ohms.

Thanks Rudy will keep that in mind.

Don't you love it when a plan comes together! Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission! :)
Plus, the Eagles won!!!!:thumbs:
Kind of a sloppy game but a win is a win! Watched it on the recliner with CC in hand.:vapor:

Nailed it!

It was quite sloppy. That game should have finished @ 54-7! Bradford needs some serious work. If it wasn't for the solid defense, the Giants could have easily won that game. But, a win is win, and Eagles take 1st in the NFC East!!
There was a Giants fan sitting in front of me, and we were on the home side:facepalm: so that was fun!

What batteries are most of you using in your CC? I dropped one of the new Sammy 25R's in mine.

I've used LG HE2, VTC4, VTC5, and Samsung 25R in my CC. I have about 30 18650s and just grab one out of the battery box. The HE2s are my preferred battery but that's probably because they are the newest and have the fewest cycles on them. I have VTC5s that are well over a year old and still work but in a diminished capacity. But, hey, they all work in the CC!

Speaking of bottles...I saw this on FB Squonker page. They look interesting! No info yet on availability or ordering process. I am going to follow this and see how it develops. 8ml bottle with o ring in cap. Same size as Vapage bottle.
View attachment 500051 View attachment 500052

Got some more info-
They are being made in Italy and will be available 10/31/15. Excerpt from Squonkers page:
Please note - not trying to promote a product here on Corey's turf but simply informing those out there with an interest.

Post-

Here we go, now that things have settled down a little bit I would like to share this epic achievement.

The new 8.5ml bottles address the need for all squonkers to have a softer and bigger juice reservoir.

Together with my good friend Ruben Cattivelli, we decided to provide the ultimate bottle, conceived and designed for Bottom Feeding, rather than adapted to it.

9ml bottles do exist, and they are compatible with some devices, but unfortunately they were not "born" for squonking and bottom feeding, as they are prone to breaking being heat welded.

The first issue we addressed was to produce a super soft bottle, compatible with all BF devices, a bigger bottle sealed with no o-ring. This bottle should not be heat welded, but blown from the native mold.

We run into many obstacles, the biggest being the sealing of the cup with no o-ring, but Ruben has been top notch to include a flare in the bottle threads that serves like an o-ring; the final result was astonishing, with absolutely zero leaking even in the most extreme conditions.

The higher expense we incurred in producing this bottles was obviously the mold, we could not afford to fail (people familiar with molds production will know for sure how much does it cost to produce one) alas we would be forced to abort the project.

Ruben deserves all my appreciation for being able to follow my guidelines, and patient enough to support and tolerate me.

I may never be able to recover this insane expenditure (although I hope I would eheheh) but the desire to contribute to this crazy squonking world was way too big.

So here we are ladies & gents, all the tests are over, production is on-going and we should be ready in 10 days approx.

As usual I would like to thank You All for the support.

Antonio

Just stepped out for my second vape with C4. I've mentioned before that I got the Thump just for my CC. In the meantime, I tried it here and there on my REOs. I suspect it's from a lower voltage drop of the CC, but the Thump is singing like a champ all of a sudden, almost like a whole new atty! The Thump wasn't great on a Grand, but a little better on my 2015 Woodvil. When I got CC, I took the Thump off the Woodvil and right to the CC, just dry-burned & re-wicked. Night and day difference. I'm curious to see what C4 will do to one of my Vectors!
