Show off! My learning curve was very steep.

I'm still having a problem bottom feeding using the atty, though. So no need to feel bad, April.

While I was typing this I took a few minutes to check out a couple video reviews for this and in most of them the show how to feed the cartomizer or attomizer by tipping it over watch for the bubbles to come up, then bringing it back upright and give the bottle a squeeze. Which supposedly pushes the juice up to your device. As many times as I tried this, it still didn't seem to get the juice up into the atty, or carto for that matter. After the first couple hits the juice I put in to prime the thing dried up and I got nothing but nasty, nasty.

Then I came across this video and he has a slightly different way to squonk the bottle. While tipping the VMod over he inhaled slightly to bring the juice into the carto. Also, instead of bringing the Vmod back upright to squonk he held it upside down and squonked.

I tried it and it seems to work for me as well.

Check it out. The filling part is towards the end near the 5:40 mark. Maybe that'll work for you too. :toast:

Long time no see, Trick. Good to see your noodles flapping. :?:

Where are you foraging for unique mods these days?

Hitting lots of co-ops, as usual, both here and Facebook... one group there in particular is good for some fairly unusual Phillipines-made stuff that'll soon start showing up on my doorstep. I'm particularly looking forward to this one:

Will it go into hyper-drive or warp drive?

How long do the wicks last in a clearo? I have the Mophead Clearo's from HHV that are nearly 2 months old. One I just changed the wick and it draws easier. I think they came with a 2.4 ohm and I have replaced it with a 1.8 ohm. I realize each persons mileage will vary. I am thinking it is affecting the flavor of Legend. I have Legend in a Vision Nano and it is tasting much better. What thinkest thou?

OK, then Griffith. I even looked it up to be sure, and Google agreed with me - but
turns out it was a 'footballer' as it said. Interesting thought. But I always have to stop
and think about the spelling, even though I seen the show 100s of times. You are right,
though.

Hey, gang, I got a pencil torch today and apparently it's not pre-filled with butane.
Someone on Amazon said their cig lighter butane can would not fit it. What do I need
to fill it?

I bought from FastTech.com, but you can see it here:

I'm guessing that Bernzomatic butane would do it, but it depends what the manufacturer recommends.
