I've got the Prommy from Focale on order as well as the KFL 3.1 ES so will update on both when arrived :D

I love some of the people on FT forums, the good, the bad and the ugly is prob nearer the mark especially the "OMG its brass and we are all going to die" brigade, I have patiently tried to educate people that brass really is the least of their problems and unless they can get a coil to heat brass up to about 600 degrees then there really is not much to worry about but some do persist...

Great info and marvelously presented as always, young lady. From all of Vulcan, thank you. Of course you know, being the powerfully dynamic person you are, the only way for me to move up in rank is to assassinate you some day, but until that day comes, vape long and prosper. :evil:

(Peace! Or else!)


Didn't you know? ... That is exactly how His-story began. ;-) But I have arisen from the ashes, and I am prepared this time. :D .. Kisses

Awesome! I am almost as excited as if I bought it myself. Dying to hear feedback on this one, so I will be waiting with bated breathe.

Lol, I have given up on trying to dissipate the "brass hysteria" .. Good sense is lost on many. :p How long ago did you order the Prommy?

Burnieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Why are you being so elusive? We miss you :)

Oh I'm still around and keeping up with the thread, just nothing going on really. My last vapemail from FT will be here today or tomorrow, mostly flashlights, and I have 2 coming from the classies I got this weekend, a Diver V1 & a carto tank lot, and a 25mm carto tank that I hope will look good on the X-Gun. Don't really need to order anything, haven't for months, and haven't really seen a lot of "I Have Got To Order This" type stuff. So just been reading along with what everyone else is doing.

So how good are the clones of the kayfun and russian on this site? I wanna get into rbas but the price tags on the real ones of those two are way too high for me.

All feedback thus far says they are winners! NiNi has three of the Marstech Kayfuns and she says they are great. I read a review on the Focal website for the 3.1 and the customer raved about it, and also posted pics.
Thanks, looks like I'm placing an order this Friday and finally getting into rbas

25mm cartotank? :ohmy: .. had no clue there was any such thing, but this is good to know. I have a mild crush on the new Panzer clone, and I've been wondering what I could pair with it.

I am sure you could open your own e cigarette store by now anyway :laugh: .. Well, as long all is good with you my dear. Glad you stopped in to check on us. :)

That's it. I give up. This my first cartotank and all i get is a problem. Thinking, if i get other cartomizers may be this will improve those buggers. Summing on Marstech QQ and KK cartotank.
1. KK carto was giving me burnt taste, sitting with full tank over night did fixed it.
2. Both cartos started to gurgling
3. Changed ratio of E-juice from 50/50 to 60/40 vg/pg, started to give me constant dry hits, go back to 50/50 - back to gurgling.
4. Today my e-juices have no taste it all in both tanks.
I do not DIY e-juices and don't thing i will be on it any time soon, so i need device what works with what i have. I will try recommended in this topic Boge and Smoktech 35mm non flanged cartomizers (well only Smoktech i can get so far). For sure will not buy this cartos from focalecig as far i can't handle maintenance of those things.
All this issues - not fact device problem as new to catotanks i probably easy could cost all of them.

Grrr! Whatever happened to web designers? Wish retail e-cig sites were designed better, all of them. Without mentioning any names -- oh jeez here we go again with the names. Forget it, just wish we had more pictures, better pictures, better descriptions that are not simply sales pitches, better organization and GUI friendliness, more pure and potent stocking data....

More Selection! FASTER SHIPPING! LOWER PRICES!!!

Naw just more pictures for now would be cool. Get way up in there! I want my tanks to have a full body-cavity search!

:( ... sorry that you are feeling frustrated. If the KK cartos don't play well with your e liquid, then of course you should try the other recommended cartos (Boge or Smoktech) ... It sucks when your vape gear doesn't work the way you need it too!

Agreed! Product photos are soooo important. I know Doris has a staff that does the photos for the site, but I did notice that some of the newer product photos were incomplete. You have to photograph the device completely dissembled.

Some US vendor are horrible with product descriptions ... some simply don't do them. I think this is on purpose because it allows the vendor to change sources, and have different variances in the same product.

Is it rattling between the sides of the tubes or between the connections? I other words, too long or too wide. I ask because my turtleship did this just a tad and with my OCD, that just would not do. So I wrapped one of the batteries I use with it with a single wrap of electrical tape. Problem solved :) I suspect this is due to slight variations in battery sizes.

Has anyone gotten the Origin? I cannot get battery rattle to stop even though I used the adjuster on the bottom all the way up.

Have you adjusted the pin on the top cap? The bottom adjustment is for battery contact (switch activated), and switch throw. You cannot stop battery rattle by adjusting the bottom cap.

Pin on the top cap falls out.
It has a flathead screwdriver slot.

I was trying to find pics of the under side of the top cap, but I can't find any. And yes, the 510 pin itself would be hot during use, that is the part that is conducting electricity to your top device.

When Delboy is back around he may be able to offer some suggestions to stop the battery rattle. A longer 510 pin, or a thick washer that properly threads onto the 510 pin could do the trick.

Do I adjust it with the battery in it?

Well yeah, that is the only way to see if adjusting the pin will stop the rattle. The key is that your pin still needs to be able to make contact with whatever device you attach to it. This may or may not work depending on the length of the pin, as well as your ability to adjust the 510 connection on your topper.

What are you trying to use on the Origin?
