Vapor is ok compared to what I'm used too.

Perseas, if I may pose my critique of the Heron thus far.... So far, you've already addressed the gurgling issue so I wont bother with that, but I do feel that the AFC could stand some alteration. I would recommend cutting a matching slot into the intake as opposed to the three inlets. This way we could get a little more airflow if desired and still be able to tone it down with the AFC ring.

That being said, the Heron is a flavor machine for sure. I feel I will enjoy it more once the revised top cap is in my hands.

Perseas, also, will you be requiring the return of the original top cap? Reason I ask is, I was considering boring out that tube on my drill press to alleviate the gurgling until your fix arrives.

Someone asked this earlier and Perseas said that the return of the original top cap is not required.

Is there a temporary fix I can perform to stop this gurgling its constant now :( ...........

Read the update for the heron, it says all you need to know for a temporary fix. I took a 3mm drill bit and drilled through the bell, washed it well, and problem solved...but do read the post which includes diagrams, it'll help.

Yea i too wish the airflow was a little more loose . I also thought about having a straight cut line instead of 3 small holes for the airflow.

The new bells shall have a wider bore, so the draw will become more airy, no worries :) No need to return us the current bell, keep it and experiment as you like with it.

Chad - do you have any pics of how to build a cotton wick for the fluff free setup? If you do, could you please post them? I would like to try this setup and I've been getting dry hits with the topper, cotton and the fluff, so, not sure how to set up fluffless.

Your help is much appreciated :)

There is a tutorial floating around somewhere that he did... I -think- its in this thread actually. Toward the beginning maybe.

Either way, its pretty easy to explain so I'll give it a shot.

Basically, build it the way you have been with fluff. You have to use the cotton topper cap also. And instead of having fluff in the tank section...use nothing. Fill up the tank. Screw on your wicked base with the cotton topper being used...and vape away.

Have you got an AGAT2 genesis atty laying around ?

I have been given one of a member of a Danish forum. Will grind the edge down so the steam chamber becomes so small that the posts in Heron just barely can be there. It will make the hole in the topcap sit right between the orings!
