Calling all Dog lovers - The Ehpro True MTL RTA

[Sparky!]

It looks fine to me, Sparky.

I have no idea if this is of any value, but I usually don't take my wicks all the way down to the deck. For reasons I neither know nor care, it always seems to be problematic for me when I do.

So I leave them dangling, cut just below the channels.

Could be absolutely worthless, but it works for me.

Thx, thats where I was trimming as well. The threads are a little crunchy at the start even with out any wicking. Starting think it's a defect in some way, but I don't know
The first one I got did not have any clamps or screws on the deck rendering it useless. Luckily the vendor made it right by replacement as EHPRO has been has been useless regarding missing parts. It doesn't weep or leak, it dumps everything right out the AFC. Have broken it down, lubed and reseated o rings. Not coming from tank or 510. Time to give it a good rest I guess.

I would trim the tail thickness a tiny bit more and tuck under the deck.

Threads are a bit crunchy on mine also, I always back thread until I'm sure there caught correctly.

Is the coil assembly clear of the air hole below...1mm or more?

agree with bigbob. when i wet my wicks a bit, i am able to push the cotton into the slot and it will appear as if there will be a gap between the bell and the wick port. you would think you have too little cotton, and yet it will surprise you, no leaks.

not sure about the distance in mm. if you see the clamps, and you use it, coils just go straight out in that level. if i use the screws, i lower to the line of the clamps. i believe you can go a little lower than that too. brewdawg gets it as close to the airhole with no problems.

Thin the tail a bit more tuck under deck, check.
Check coil height, using screws push down just a bit, check.
Take clamps and screws and put them in the tank that came without them, check.
Go brain dead, wick with rayon and do it like you know how to do it, check.
Realize that the fill ring seal was a bit buggered and you were not getting the damn thing closed all the way, check.
Accept the fact that sometimes the obvious makes you stupid, check.

Thanks for all the suggestions!!! Now this thread can get back to what a fine tank this is.
Super smooth, great flavor, good stuff.

Glad you got the True up and running again, forgot to mention to crank a bit on the fill cap to make sure it's closed.

When the second one cleared the little lip on the fill port with ease, the light bulb went off and all I could think is what a d-a*s....it was right in front of you the whole time. Oh well, blame it on old age.

Been there, done that.

 

[bigbob2322]

I think we all have. LOL

glad you are enjoying it as well as we are!

heres what i mean by "appears to be too little wick". the slots were still a bit wet from cleaning. i trim down the wicks. push in. if its dry and cant set it inside the slot, use eliquid to dampen. when i push in, you can see the edges of the grooves. i still soak the wicks before putting back the top. always leak free and flavorful for me.

A little disappointed, only saw the "calling all dog lovers" part of this title over in the recent posts sidebar and thought it was a thread about puppers.....

That does appear to be on the light side. I still have some work to do, mine leaked out overnight as it has for others. I'll hang in there with it...

I've been using mainly mesh in BF atomiser for the last couple of years and decided to try RTA's again.
I received my true yesterday, cleaned it and coiled/wicked it. I used a 2mm I/d coil and cotton bacon that I've had for years.
I filled the tank and the juice leaked out. So I lifted the coil about 1.5mm above the air hole and it's been great. Left it overnight and it's bone dry this morning.

Okay so I broke my first bubble tank....

That was quick.

Any plastic or whatever versions to be had perchance? I put another one on but with a vape band we shall see.

 

[bigbob2322]

Sorry for your loss.

Daleks were one of the nice surprises in Doctor Who! Nasty and self serving, but entertaining.

Very true but you really wouldn't want to be exterminated by your own RTA would you? Brings a whole new meaning to "atomizer".

Black True tank finally arrived.
