As usual I am running behind. Here is the October give away VV, It is stabilized buckeye burl.
Wowsers! Top of the line giveaway there.
Got my baby back in the mail yesterday Marcus, looks good as new. Thank you very much! Haven't had much time with it yet but I do like the new feeder tube system so far.

I have been using the new feed system for about a month or so and so far I like it better. I wish I could get some shorter lids for the bottles but I haven't had any luck finding any. The thicker tube makes it much easier to get it on the stainless tube too which is a plus.
Hi Marcus. I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in on the new feed system. I think it's MUCH better than the old one. BTW, how do you get in on the giveaway?
I am glad you like the new feed system. Any order $50.00 or more automatically gets entered for the monthly giveaway.
So Marcus, please do tell about the improved feed system...is it a shorter, stiffer tube that makes it easier to slip over the metal nipple? Can it be adapted with the current bottles that we have?
Marcus, Your boxes are beautiful. My only concern is with regard to the stacked batteries. I'm concerned about the safety issues with stacked batteries. Can you explain the though pattern behind this and is there any way to get a single, larger (ie: longer) battery? I know you have the mini models but they would just die out way too soon for me.
basically it is the same bottle but now the tube is larger in diameter and utilizes the white dropper cap now. They should fit into most of the previous boxes without any problems but it will be tight in the older boxes because the inside diameter was not cut to use the white dropper cap. All of the new boxes are about a 1/16" wider on the inside to allow extra room but the outside dimension is the same as before.
Thank you and that is a great question, The stacked battery issue has been debated and torn apart countless times in various threads. The thing I cannot stress enough is that you always use either protected batteries ( Circuit board protected ) or you use IMR or safe chemistry batteries. IMR batteries are made for high drain applications such as high quality LED flashlights which 18350's are stacked and also in other various devices where the batteries are in series to create a battery pack. when batteries are stacked or in series that is done to double the voltage and is done in virtually every thing we use that is battery operated. When used in an e cig the drain on the battery can be quite high depending on what atomizer you are using which in some of my high end flashlights using the exact same batteries my flashlight pulls quite a bit more amperage and once again using IMR batteries which are safe chemistry there is always a slight chance something could go wrong but it is unlikely. In the end it all depends on who you are asking and what their personal opinion is on the issue but from my experience and extensive testing with my mods and stacked batteries I will not hesitate to use them. Now using non protected batteries is a huge no no and should never be tried because with a high drain on the battery and no protection to shut the battery down before something goes wrong will no doubt be bad. My standard boxes and standard bottom fed boxes can be used with and 18650 which will last you a good while but that is the largest battery my mods will take. I hope I answered your question and as for stacking batteries there are those that don't like it and those that don't.
Here is a photo of the new bottle system installed in one of the 'older' vv boxes. Also shows the new cap design on the spare bottle.
It's tight as marcus said but it does fit and nothing rattles around. Makes it very solid feeling.

So Ratman, do you feel that the feed is different? If so, how?
hey, you beat me to the Deal and Steals thread this time..Rats!

Hey Buddy,
I can't really say Bro. I have been using an A7 on it and have to use a shorty 510-510 adapter so the feed is wonky because of the combo. I think I am going to go back to regular atty on it until Markus releases his RBA's that will fit the cup. None of mine will fit without an adapter.
Hey Marcus,
LOVE the new bottle. I trimmed it down to eliminate the bend around the firing switch as best as possible, and it makes it MUCH easier to slip on and off with the more stout tube...plus, now it requires a much more subtle (and better) squeeze to coax liquid to the atty...the ol' "blind squonk" like you can do with the REO...pull without squeezing, squeeze just a tad until you sense a change in pressure or a little gurgle...vape!
MUCH BETTER..good job. Now let's get a thicker feed tube to work on the mini!
