Yeah, even the regular Subtank pushes the limits of the VS rDNA-40. I don't like 'hangover' much.... :)

Dang it. I am just testing out the nano at the moment. Got the regular SubTank, the mini SubTank the nano SubTank and now I guess I gotta get a Mega. Sheesh when will the madness end? Do we really need 5 gals of juice in our toppers? What happened to toting a bottle in your pocket? :lol: :vapor:

Notice the small square of black plastic window like that covering the display, but above the button came off somewhere and is gone! :(

What about the Pink one?

Saving that for the powerplant?---------------:D

Bikes......Have a safe week if you're heading to work at the shutdown this week ahead.
Ha ha. I haven't been told when the boiler goes down yet. Just got vape Mail. Order was done Sat morning and here today! Sweet Vapes may be pink but they are fast! Any suggestions on primin these Airs before I load one? Also got my free 12ml bottle of juice from Vista Vapors. They added a 20% boost that I didn't request. Also sent a book of matches without the heads. :)

Bike I used Vista juices (heck still do as I have a good supply still) before moving into DIY, was always pleased with their juice and prices. :)

Blueberry 50% boost and No boost- which do you like better? The prices are cheap enough and a good selection. Only 2 VG levels except for the Cloud specialty juices. Never saw a Grits flavor before. Might try em in the future. I've always liked to stay around 15-20% flavor in my juices. I don't know what these start at.
You sure have a good supply! Is the darker Blueberry an older juice? How's that Banana? Cherry and Banana seem to be your favorites. :)

On ur knees :) All I see is a little metal plate with holes. I've been tryin to get one apart but I'm not gonna destroy a good one. I'll take your word for it because of one thing: I've gotten terrible dry hits that indicate there is a wick in there. I don't see how just a coil would do that unless it had a bunch of crud buildup on it, enough to keep it burnin after takin power off it. Somebody had said they were all metal so I ...-u-med. Still, the next one that goes bad I'm rippin it apart! :)

A picture is worth a thousand words. Here are some great shots of a 510 atomizer with and without the bridge.

Since they are built a little like cartomizers (or Aspire BDC coils, if you're familiar with those), I like to prime them a bit before filling the tank. Just a few drops either through the top or the sides of the coil shell should suffice. Let them sit a couple of minutes to make sure that the eliquid has fully saturated the wrap and the wick. I do this only with brand new, dry coils--then I just refill them.

Good luck.

The Air Coils I simply add a couple drops of juice at the side port holes and a couple drops down the center.

I'm still using the same coil I installed a couple weeks ago, so I only primed one coil since their inception to my collection.....:)

But then again I have 8 iSticks in front of me....four on the right, four on the left, each with a different flavor. The GS Air gets its turn frequently during the course of a day, but the coils last, and their CHEAP.....:p

I hear you regarding Sweet Vapes.....they are a good vendor....!

Ya'll are a little late on your recs, but I did prime the coil on the side and the top before I put it together and let it sit 15 minutes. I think I read somebody recommend doin that earlier in the thread. The reason I asked was because it looked like a little carto thing. :) I'm still testing the first one.
