As most of you know the self piercing saddle valve has been a great inexpensive way of punching you're own carto's .. The problem is they're are many different styles of brass saddle valves that all appear identical.. Please take note** that of the following model of saddle valve which CAN'T be used:
SUPCO SADDLE TAPPING VALVE MODEL STV2

This particular saddle valve comes with a hollow tip tap that creates 1/4" holes that render cartomizers useless...
On a good note if you prefer a step up from the standard brass saddle valve then a "C" clamp style "ROS" style aluminum tap for 3/8" pipe is even easier and more precise: cost $10- 12 USD.. Good Luck !!!
