Do you mean the Group buy vote? .. How come I can't see the voting page? It's frustrating me :p ... A little surprised to see the Taifun GT craze still going so strong, but its like the kayfun in that everyone should have one ... or two :p

Yep. When you go on the website just click on that group vote and you can see how many votes each item has.

No update yet on my order. Still stuck in Shenzen. My other order placed after is already here for delivery. But it's all good. Vapemail today!!!

I made my first order with Focalecig on 4/24 and it shipped the next day. Made another order on 5/1 and it hasn't shipped yet. Should I be concerned?

No you shouldn't .. The Chinese Holiday (May 1- 3rd) just passed, so your order didn't even begin processing until the 4th. While some items ship within 48 hours, most ship within 3-7 days of ordering. How long it takes to package, and ship your order depends on what it is you ordered. But there is nothing to be concerned about at this point, technically you are on your 2nd day of order processing. :)

Weird... putting down an order now and the coupon code doesn't work... Oh well... It's just 3 bucks anyway...

ETA: And ordered a couple mini protank3's for the mom and a logoless (not Legolas) Nemesis for me.

It didn't work? I know that it did as of last week :unsure: .. I wonder if perhaps it cannot be used on certain items? I know that when I placed my very first order with them, my coupon only worked on one of the items that I purchased.

Anyhoo ... were these gifts for Mom for Mother's day? In any event, that is a really nice thing to do for your Mom. :)

Thanks, Nikkita. Didn't know about the holiday.

Question ... are you priming your wicks prior to filling? For the most part this is recommended however, when I prime to the point of full saturation, I notice that my chamber ends up flooded by the time I start vaping, in which case there is going to be leaking.

Now, I only prime my wick to "partial saturation" ... The next question is, are you using the Top fill method, or the fill port?


ETA: I also notice that your juice channels look exceedingly deep, especially the bottom channels. My juice channels are not machined that deeply. This may be the cause of excess fluid into the chamber.

I was gonna post a pic of my deck, but the angles are not good enough to see what I mean.

I prime the wicks just wet enough to stick them to the deck where I want them to be before putting on the middle cap. I dont saturate them. I also fire them a little before I put the chimney on. (Just because its fun :p )

Ive tried both the top fill and the fill port for filling.

As far as channel depth. I guess theres nothing that can be done there.

This is ol' JonnySmooth's laboratory for all my DIY and making all those great FocalEcig goodies come to life! I just picked up the cabinet today and transferred all my stuff from a closet shelf and a tackle box. Kinda off topic I know, but you can still see all the FocalEcig goodness! Doris, if you could see me now! :headbang:

i heard when flooding issues arise the draw needs to be adjusted to be less stiff. (harder draw = more liquid being drawn in ).
