Clearomiser tubes cracking

[DiscoDes]

Hi, new poster 2 year vaper here.
I am using the TW XL clearomisers on my Riva and think they're great
However I do find that they crack very easily at the atomiser end. Can you get replacement tubes?

Thanks!

BTW I am in the UK

Personally, I'd BD 3mL syringe tube mod them. I think Gotvapes.com has replacement tubes. I think they're the newer thicker tubes. Same OD, so, DT and/or mouthpieces usually need to be modded to fit smaller ID. JMHO

Cheers,

Yes GV has got them but I'd prefer a UK supplier as the shipping cost makes them very expensive!

I was hoping TW in the UK had them

Hi DiscoDes (loving the name btw)

Unfortunately we do not supply these (atm) but we may stock them in the near future.
We also have confirmation that the manufacturer of the clearomizers are sending a new, improved batch with our next order so the tubes will be more robust.

Thanks

These clearomizers are a great idea, but in serious need of better tubes. I'm just holding the ones I have until there's a better tube replacement available. (I tried the BD 3ml syringe mod, but I can't seem to get a tight enough fit to prevent leaking).

Miss Wicked, can you advise TW to *please* note the improved tubing when they go up for sale?

These XL clearomizers are awesome. Yes they can crack and get leaky, but for the price, they are a great value and they give good vapor, I think better than on the tank systems. I do look forward to more robust tubes.

Just got some tubes from an American website and they are much better, i'll report back in a couple of weeks to let you know if they too have split.

Been using the new tubes for a few days now and they are MUCH more durable but I still have experienced splitting on one. So all in all I WOULD recommend but you still need to be careful.

I love the clearomizer, but EVERY single one cracks on me. I had one crack before I even filled it! Had to throw it out cause it was leaking so fast. Generally I get 3-5 uses per carto before it cracks and has to get tossed. It's a shame, because the innards would last SOOOOO much longer if it wasn't for the stupid plastic tube!

You can replace the tubes on the XL versions with a 3ml BD syringe. Just cut the syringe to the same length as the original tube and superglue it onto the threaded end. No more cracks or leaks

I have the new tubes and they crack as well. I've had several that were cracked when I took them out of the wrapper. They work great when they aren't cracked and you can't beat the price!
