You might consider a short brass pipe that goes into the cart and ss glued in place. Then the tubing is attached to the pipe outside the cart and is easily removable. For an excellent example see the "mAhmba 2" (youtube videos of it in action and disassembled/reassembled). IIRC it uses a U shaped pipe so that the liquid comes in from above the bridge but is aimed down towards it (picture an upside down U). The U shape has the added benefit of allowing the tube to run up along side the atty/cart which is much less accident prone.

Just my $.005

So many threads like this... only carlos seems to have gotten it right. :) I'm trying to figger out how this is done through the atty and not through the mouthpiece... any help?

Craig

Bottom feeding through the battery connector is IMHO a more elegant solution than thru the cart. There's been lots of modders who've done it this way (search for "Petercro"s juicebox mod as a good example).

There's differences in the bottom of attys and thus there's pros/cons.

If you want to actually come in through the SIDE of the atty I'd not recommend it as it would make the atty harder to replace (if you're using "stock" attys). I'd sugest either feeding through the cart or bottom feeding up into the atty.

Just my $.005

I've made em both ways in different variations. Bottom feeding is prettier, cart feeding works better for various reasons.

I reckon that depends on how you do your bottom feeding.. eh? ;)

Where you been hiding and why am I not vaping a Scottbee PV???

You mean you're not??? Then it must be that damned milkman again!

I was able to look the other way when he would come into my house and put a twinkle in my wife's eye. But vaping on my PV!!!??? Now he has gone too far! ;)

Actually my friend.... I have just been temporarily distracted by life. I'll be getting back to the important things very soon.... :(

Thank you very much for your compliance! Now get cracking!

OH, and hope the "life" stuff is going good!

as for the first question in this thread, try a little bit if plumbers epoxy putty and bam no leaking! (i love this stuff thanks highping for your mods tiping me off to this amazing putty)

as for micro pumps, they are imo a complete waste of time, all they would do is add bulk, lower battery life, and cost to mods. and they would need to be adjustable for different viscosity of juice,

very unnecessary when the sucktion from our normal draws on a pv can accomplish the same thing.

thus far afaik only scott has perfected this in his dream pvs (wich he posted a pic of 1 in this thread) though he has not revealed the full inner workings what i can piece together from his hints tossed out here and there is it is bottom feed (via Teflon tube i believe?) self feeding juice delivery via the suction of taking a draw, which is ezly adjustable for different viscosity via an adjustable needle valve. the reservoir is ezly filled by twisting the neck piece to reveal a fill hole. not sure on the reservoir size but from the pic i guess 2-3ml maybe?

anyway going to be honest here, scotts method beats the %#$^ out of anything eles.

scott where you you get you smart pills? mine aren't working
