eGo ONE tank series – CLR coil

[Cheechako]

Tomorrow I do my first re-wick.

You're gonna love it! Easy-peasy.

Received my extra CLR coils ordered from fasttech today on July 4. Fastest delivery ever.

I ordered some on July 2. The last time I checked, they had arrived in Chicago. I suppose they'll go to Kansas before heading north to WI again.

A question on wicking the CLR. How long are you leaving the tails?
My first rewick leaked. I had cut the tails too close and had some leaking - nothing major but annoying. So I pulled that wick and did a 2nd with the ends a bit longer. That worked fine - no leaking at all. I am on my 3rd rewicking (really dark juice). I left the end longer like the 2nd but am getting a teeny bit of weeping from the airholes with this one.
I am using rayon and it is snug in the coil.

Try tightening the bottom screw nut whatever that thing is, make the hole the wick goes thru a little smaller.
it worked

Now the reason I,m posting!

I just bought 2 Trons from Heaven Gifts. They were a lot cheaper than the V2s. 50% off and I found a coupon code ACAUSE10 for another 10% off. Total $22.60 shipped CN E-Packet.

I just ordered 2 trons also, they also have Ego ones (the 18mm 2.5 ml ones) on sale for 5 dollars and change, total cost for 3 tanks 27.38

have a good one

Taking the grand tour and enjoying the trip.

Nice deal!

I am not clear on what screw/nut you mean.

# 1 or 2? Something else?
I don't think #2 moves, at least without pliers.
It is possible that I did not tighten #1 all the way down.

He's talking about #2 or the "regulating ring". If screwed up towards the other ring, it shrinks the wick holes.

 

[pufZeppelin]

if you get the wick too long it will cram into the housing inside the tank (air tube)
think more of filling the square hole in the coil body than making a length of wick
keep the wick tails as short/tight as possible IMO

joyetech calls ring 2 the flow control ring_allows you to close it off some for thinner juice, if needed

eJuice gets OUT by going around the coil (loose or bad o-ring)
or THRU the coil-meaning insufficient wick !
don't be afraid to stuff more wick material in there

" Keep it - high & tight "

something about the eGo ONE tanks I've experienced is;
seems all of them when they get low (say10% juice left) they start to seep (leak)

 

[IMRs]

No leakage problems whatsoever here (knock on wood).

GOOD LUCK, Fran!

Thanks,Nanny. I'm all done with that 2 second job.

My first FT order: Ordered CLR coils, some plastic bottles with tips, 26ga kanthal and drip tips on July 4, all for about $22. Said it was shipped July 5. Apparently they walked it to Beijing where it arrived July 10. Was processed and ready to ship from Beijing July 10. That's where it stops. Still says same thing. It's the story of my life, and I knew this ahead of time, so I only ordered cheap things I don't need in a hurry. Not sure if it has totally disappeared or if tracking info is just fouled up. Ordered with E-Packet because someone said the tracking was better. Going to wait a few more days then dive into the hassle of trying to communicate with a Chinese company about difficulties with mail service. Oh joy.

 

[FranC]

Patience grasshopper. My tracking never updates til it reaches customs in US.

Good to know. Thanks, Fran. I kept it cheap so, if it came down to it, I'd just write it off as a lesson learned. Less stress that way.

 

[gandymarsh]

Yeah, sometimes it sits in China for a week with no updates. Once it gets to the US you will see more movement. Sign up to email notifications on the USPS tracking site (if you haven't already) and try to forget about it.

 

[FranC]

I've made a lot of orders from ft. Never a problem getting the order. The wait times very.

 

[MikeADore]

Yeah, I'm not really sweating it. Haven't checked it since July 10 when it arrived in Beijing. Was just surprised when I checked again this morning that it still said same thing. The thing that would stress me would be trying to communicate with them to solve a problem. Probably won't come to that.

 

[Cheechako]

I try to think of FT orders as surprises I send myself. It's always a surprise when it finally shows up.

 

[FranC]

The customer service ain't bad. I got a refund or two from them.
