I'm not a modder--yet

I was thinking about vaping, and one of the things I love about vaping is how well it mimics smoking. One of the biggest downsides to vaping, in my book, is the cartridge, and of course the atomizer. So I came up with an idea. I might even try to do it! It's the... [drum roll] e-hookah!!! [/drum roll]

I got the idea because I was thinking about a way of putting the e-liquid on the other side of the atomizer somehow, with some sort of wick. Of course, if it were in your pocket, it would just make a mess that way. But if it were a stationary unit...

Then I got to thinking about old fashioned oil lamps, with that thick cloth wick, and I thought: what if e-liq were in a container with a heat source above it which drew the liquid up the wick where it could vaporize! Thinking of oil lamps--due to shape--made me think of hookah pipes! Let me know what you guys think... If I ever have the time I'll try to make it. I would love ideas for the atomizer heat source...

I made a cheesy diagram (I'm on a work comp and had to use paint).

Cheers,

I actually saw that after I had posted this idea. But no, I don't mean like that. I mean a whole different system of liquid delivery to the heat source. That's the point here. Imagine not having to add liquid for, maybe, days. Just turn on your hookah, and puff away for as long as you like.

I would actually prefer to have the power source be a little more on-demand, maybe I'll put a manual switch on the hose? I don't know when or if I'll even get to this idea in actuality. Still, I posted it first, so it's now technically mine in the U.S. Somebody copy this and get rich so I can sue!

Nice idea. The main problem I see with your diagram though is that if you were to suck on that hose, you'd get a mouthful of h20.

Doh!

It least you only made a diagram.
