This is a cheap version of the "Line" made from an F1 cartomiser i think it's called. Pretty easy to make and works a treat :2cool:


The wire posts are made from tempered food grade SS wire (1.6 mm diameter). It is supposed to be able to handle about 1350 Celsius. I found this at a store which sells stuff for people who grow bees (have no ideea of the english term sorry :blush:).

The coil is 0.2 mm khantal and it reads between 1.8 and 2.0 ohm depending on how wet the wick is.

At the threads there is also the filling hole.

Materials used:
2 x F1 cartomisers , 1 for the body and 1 for the additional thread for the tip. Need to find a better top cap
Some tempered food grade 1.6 mm SS wire
Epoxy for the filling inside the first thread (i did leave the original silicon cap in there also)
0.2 mm khantal
400 mesh
9 x 1 washer to cover the filling hole
I only used a dremel for all the work. The hole in the top cap is 1.2 mm

Hope you like it ;)

Hi ,

I'll try to answer the questions to the best that i can :p

I use this:

I make a mark corresponding to the inside so i can cut the tube and expose the 510 connection.

This is what it looks like after cut

I can then easily dissasemble it and take everything out. Here the inside CE2 like tube from the + connection is already cut.

Definitely gonna look into making one of these...

I haven't seen one in person to be sure of the size, but I wonder, if you cut off the pen top shorter, would a 701-510 adapter fit it... You know what I'm referring to? The thing G-Tank users got to use a 510 drip tip on their G-Tank... (Just thinking out loud... never know if it might help)
