Do not...

[mn shutterbug]

...put a filled Vision Extreme in your pants pocket. I did and the mouthpiece came off. I put it back on and vaped and it tasted really nasty. I then realized all the juice had leaked out in my pocket. It would be nice if the mouthpieces were threaded and could screw on. They come off just a bit too easy.

I shouldn't laugh...but I did,

Have you checked out the vision stardusts? They have threaded caps. As does the vision stone.

The mouthpieces on the regulars seem to fit a little looser than the minis.

I noticed that.

I'm happy I could entertain you.

been there done that, multiple times, sucks because the vision regulars work really nice, but you can't keep them in your pocket unless you want to vape the liquid out of your pocket.

I have a solution for that. But it requires some fiddling, but it will increase your flavor in my opinion by 10% to 20%. Get rid of the whistle tip, I really don't care for them. With all the obstructions in the whistle tip you lose quite a bit of flavor. I really prefer using my trip tips. If anyone is interested I can post some pictures. You will need a fluxo tube and a donut.

I actually like the whistle tips. They're much more comfortable than the standard cartos. I have a real slim reading glasses case, about the size of a large cigar, that I can put the filled extreme in before putting in my pocket.

The Visions (all of them) have been great, but I also wish they were just tinkered with a bit more by GotVapes, & were threaded on. Now THAT would be perfect!

The caps on the vision extremes are a little looser than on the vision deux, but the trade off is you're not going to crack the tube on the extremes. You also don't want to store a full one lying down. I found that out the hard way, too.

my full ones dont leak when set on side - might check and make sure you dont have gaps at the top of the wick slots in the ceramic cup - that can cause leaks and can be fixed by fluffing the wicks to fill the slots or making sure the seal is pushed down all the way but not pinching the wicks...

Been there, Done That...

Maybe not with a Vision but the Results were the Same.

The dumbest, and possibly the most embarrassing thing I ever did was put my PV with a full E2 carto in my pants pocket before doing a Power Point presentation in front of about 60 people.

Needless to say, the carto leaked and by the time I felt it I had a nice wet spot about 2” from my pants zipper.

I just posted a suggestion thread to Gotvapes asking them about a "carrying tube". A test tube shaped case that is long enough for an Ego with a Vision carto on it, and a good width that wont allow it to rattle around too much. It would protect it from getting broken in your pocket, protect from leaking, and keep dust out of it. Plus it would be conveniently available for portable vaping.

Badkolo from Gotvapes posted in the thread, saying they were working on that, and it should be available in about a couple weeks.

Honestly, I'm not sure how the juice gets up in the top when it's lying on the side since it seems like I have a tight seal. For everyday use, I have no leaks, but if I store it on the side for a while, it leaks out. I always pull the inner plug up a little, then use the mouthpiece to push it down so I get a tight seal between the inner and mouthpiece plug. Slow leaks or not, these are still my favorite attys. My stardust and stone tank will be here any day!

 

[harmonic]

pulling the inner plug up a little is most likely causing your leak when laying down. pulling the seal up increases the open space at the wick opening in the ceramic cup. i would push the seal down so it sits snug on the wicks without pinching them. as long as the mouthpiece seal goes all the way round the tube and the cup seal nipple goes in the mouthpiece hole it matters not the distance between these 2 seals - they dont need to be squashed tight together lol

I would love to see how that is done.

Ahhh, so I've been doing it wrong all this time! They still work well, tho, so that's good to know. I guess where I was using the fluxos before, and on those you have the o-ring and inner plug fitting together tightly, I thought the visions did, too! Thanks for the heads up.

Without even seeing your pics I grasped your ideal and went to work. I love it. My life just changed a little bit for the better as i take pride in my drip tip collection. The best part was as i was fiddling i took the whistle tip off the vision then proceeded to lay it on its side spilling juice all over the table.

Using the same logic i suppose i can do the same thing with a vision regular tube and probably a cross section of a carto condom to fit in a giant.

I will try to get a few pics up. Sorry I haven't gotten back to this thread sooner.

That's great that you managed to figure out how to do it.

Did you get more flavor using your drip tips instead of the whistle tip?

 

[Mr.BeSoBeautiful]

Yes I did. I also love how it cuts down on the condensation, it seemed as though half way through each fill the vapor production decreased due to the amount of condensation in the whistle tip.
