On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 vapor rings being the best so far) This one rates 15!!:pervy:

Wonderful job!

510 going strong - no drips - no runs - no errors (well 'cept the spring half I have yet to find:lol:)

Well done Scotty! I am using the vertical spring method on my Sidesho and it is working wonders. I am using the poly material that origionally cam with my carts. Thanks, I just went the other day and bought three boxes of pyramids...

Oh well, maybe I'll start drinking tea...

Quick Edit - Hold on! Just made one using the Lipton Pyramid Tea Bags and it works great as well!

Back to coffee...

Greetings scotty, pleased to meet you.

Tried this out yesterday when you first posted. 901 cart on a 510, 510 cart on a 901. Don't ask, I don't know, it's just what I like.

So I've the spring in 1 cart horizontal, The other 1 vertical. Both work well as others have described.

There's been a spate of really good, simple ideas lately. I like simple. Keep 'em coming! :thumbs:

This works great! But Iam still wondering why I don't get a mouthful of juice like I have with other methods.

I think some of the other methods work more like an oversoaked sponge to loosely hold the liquid.

This may work more like those envelope moisteners - the liquid is more or less held back by the cap until it is drawn through by the negative pressure.

Carts could eventually look something like this, with a sealed reservoir chamber and a sponge-like cap that pops or screws in place:

I used Fluval. It wanted to stick to the atty so I took my pointy tweezers and poked it in the spring just a bit. Worked great, we went out last night dancing. Closed the place down. One cart each. Didn't even need to refill and you KNOW we were using the hell outta them, dancing, drinking, costumed up, lol. It was awesome. Now I just have to wait for that order of springs and raid a few to hold us over!!

I was doing this when I first saw the spring mod. I was actually just putting the spring in the other way... From top to bottom and putting a very small piece of filler at the top... Then a straw down the side for air vacuum relief. It works quite well. I will have to try this one some day.

But after using the AFS (GG's newest invention) for a few days my days of messing with carts and dripping are over for good.

This works great! But Iam still wondering why I don't get a mouthful of juice like I have with other methods.

With the 510 cartridge, the design keeps the reservoir almost completely capped off from the air pocket built behind the juice. The very small gap between the cart lip pressed against the bridge area is fairly sealed with the small amount of (proper) filler covering the spring. There are two pin holes on the outer lip of the cart (they're above the flat sides of the cart) that let the air through from the vaporization area, but are too small for liquid to squeeze through on its own.

You'd have to suck pretty hard to get liquid up through those holes if the cart is fully seated.

This method doesn't work on my 401 carts though. Liquid leaks all over the place on my mine :cool:

i tried puitting the spring in straight up and down, ended up flooding my atty,

redid the same thing with more filler (the whole cart filler on top with a bit of juice behind - this worked well

still cant get the damn thing to go in sideways tho

what is AFS??

theres a defintly a kind of a trick to it cut the spring a lil more it dont need to be a real tight fit ..

If you are using the right size spring you can also spin the spring 180 degrees and the lip will still catch it from falling down to the bottom of the cart Ive tried it both ways both work just as well...

Glad to see alot of ex dripers ... thats when you know it works:D
