Have a couple of Aspire K1 BVC tanks too. The little K1 looks perfect with this istick. Think I'm going to pick up 4-5 more of the K1's for my change up juices.

I LOVE the BVC's in my nautilus's and Mini's...which are pretty easy to find to buy.

Who carries/sells the Aspire K1 ???

The overhang with my kafyfuns and other 22mm attys doesn't bother me...or I've made my peace with it. What is bothering me is the gap between atty and istick when using longer 510 threads like my magma rda, which i've recoiled to accommodate the higher-than-displayed output. I think the gap is likely to create a fulcrum that will put more stress on the clearly weak threads on the istick. So question, if I can find a oring or washer to fit, filling the gap but still allowing a firing connection, is it safe? I don't believe heat will affect the situation at the bottom of of the magma, but I worry about shorting, etc.

Ps-- using the ego threaded adapter and the various beauty skirts/rings I have in the drawer helps *a little*. would love something to help *a lot* and without defeating the compact nature of the istick.

Not rebuild, but I have seen a few youtubes where folks are dry burning them. The material is a ceramic, and shouldn't burn. But I don't think just soaking the heads cleans them very well.

On another thread, someone posted this vid to show how to clean cartos with a syringe. Has anyone tried this with an apire naughty BVC head? I think the flush with distilled H2O might do the trick. I'll pick up a syringe today and let y'all know...



I guess that's worth a shot. I've just tried cleaning them so many different ways, and it seems to do harm to them. But might be worth an experiment.

For those asking about BVC coil prices, I've had good luck with SunVapers: Aspire Nautilus BVC Single Coil (Replacement heads) - Sun-Vapers.com They have a good reputation for only carrying authentic, and currently on sale for $10.99 for a 5pack. It's the safest bet I've found.

And for whoever pointed out cleaning with 100% VG juice....very interesting. I might try that thanks.

I quit trying to clean cartos long ago, they last long enough, and it just wasn't worth the effort. I do however clean my regular dripping atties this way, only using hot tap water.

Can you post a link where BVC are $10 for a 5 pack. The cheapest I have found is $13. Thanks.

Gotta keep your eye open for deals, myfreedomsmokes had them for $7.50 shipped a few weeks ago.

Yep...good idea to get on the MFS email list. They sell the BVC's for $11.95/5 pack. But every 3-4 weeks they've been having a "Buy One--Get One Free" sale (on ALL heads).
