Wow, anxiously awaiting this. Clyde, thanks for all the information you have provided, reading through this thread has been a joy.
A couple of questions if you don't mind:
1. Any idea if this will work on an Ali'i? The catch cup on the grands seem to be about as deep as the catch cup on my ali'i, but I don't really have anything to compare it to.
2. When replacing the wick/coil element, do you have to insert each end from the middle individually, or can you go through one side, across the gap, and then through the other side? What I am trying to understand is if I get some of the pre-made elements from cloud 9, can I just insert from one side and then cut to fit without any waste?
I keep staring at the Mark-T on his Romanian website (thank you Google Translate) and am wishing he would actually release all three designs in one since the base is the same. Anyway, need to figure out how I am going to convince my wife this is needed.
