If you are chain vaping it wouldn't hurt to bump it up one. Depending your juice, you may like one juice at one ohm level anad one at another also. I have used upwards to 3.0 on a 3.2v eGo with satisfactory results although I'd say my fave vape is probably the 2.6-2.8 versions.


Unrelated to his post, I'm using my 2.4-2.6 ones on 3.7 devices. Should I skip up to 2.6-2.8? I can still get dry hits sometimes since I chain vape a lot.

Out of curiosity what kind of PV are you vaping them with? What ohms did you order?

Standard KR8 battery (vaporkings) and I got the 2.6-2.8 ohm ones. Using my favorite tobacco flavor, 70/30 mix, that works great in a generic cartomizer.

edit: you can see my setup in my avatar pic :)

sorry but im a newb.. i ordered some of these & very excited to try them

these will be the first cartos i will be using, so do i have to remove those inner plugs in order to fill the fluxomizer?

and would you mind clarifying the usefullness or reason for fluffing the wick?

thanks =)

Nope, no need to remove the last plug to fill; they should send you a needle tip that fits in a little hole in the plug and they fill right up.

Fluffing wick/tweaking the inner plug makes the juice flow better = more vapor, less dry hits. Plenty of guides out there on how to do that to CE2's.

What are the chances of having fill holes being added to the middle ring? After watching Chris's video, went with tremoving the cup cap and running with the center ring only straight away, works great no leaks!!! Just a pain to fill, having to remove and reset the middle ring every time on the cup. Or seeing them with fill holes as an option on their own in 5 packs?

Seems like a variant with only the center ring with fill holes out the box might be a viable offering as well. Great for Flux first timers, peeps that do not like to fiddle, have fat fingers etc :)

Have found them very consistent set up this way, no dry hits yet, did not fluff the wicks either. Though making the cutouts for the wicks larger so they cannot compromise the wicks would achieve the same effect, but having but the center ring with fill holes would make cleaning (for those who do not wish to take fully apart much easier)

Really love the way they function set up with the center ring only, think may need to skip the extra flavor option on my next juice supply, the extra % is a bit much I find with the center ring only configuration.

My older son just started vaping, switching from analogs woot!! woot!! set him up with my backup pv, my new sapphire 2 pack, a pumpcart, vortex v1, a 510 and 901 atomizer and a stainless CE2 from another supplier (gotvapes was out, when in frustration with the old fluxos cracking and leaking, wanted to try the steel ones) I pre widened the cup cap wick slots on that for him, when walking him through the steps over the phone, for all the heating elements provided and such, he even though liked the ce2 somewhat more than the sapphires, settled upon the latter for ease of use (he has yet to take apart and clean, rewick though lol) he is the sort that does not want to fiddle around, so for him and many like him, and though I don't mind fiddling would love to see middle ring only with fill holes out the box or as separate purchase 5 pack option :) that way only have to fiddle with each unit once with the latter...not to mention much easier to reseat the center ring on the cup and effect a seal vs working the cup cap backing into position.

In any case, have to say this new Fluxo incarnation is great cross the board (what to do, what to do, with the pile of last incarnation or sealed plastic tube fluxos :( )

Also really like the pumpcarts (am fiddling with blue foam as the transfer medium so far so good) nice to be able to use my 901 atties w/o a drip shield, no flooded 510s either less I really try lol.

Also the 3 voltage PT ordered is working just as it should, no issues at all...............thanks Chris and Danno for getting your suppliers to improve things faster than they would otherwise I suspect. Been vaping for over two years, and for me at least the improved fluxos and sapphires are a major advance, pumpcart is really sweet as well, but my atomizers are basically reserve troops now, thatnks to the buds and new fluxos, thanks Companeros!!!

When will wicks be available on site?

Better yet, I wonder if they could just do away with the cup seal entirely and use the middle ring (with fill holes) as the main seal? Seems like the cup seal is a bit superfluous and it's by far the hardest to work with...

That would be ideal, guess I missed expressing that, meant to anyway.... as they work so very well and do not leak using the center ring only :)...having worked in production scheduling and control and coddling a lot of custom jobs from start to finish through the plant...thought the simplest and most cost effective fast option would be the addition of fill holes to the center ring, guessing a simple program modification as they are a truncated cup cap from what I can see....till enough feed back from the field comes in verifying the viability to give Chris and Danno the ammo to get the manufacturer to make the change.. a lot can be involved, engineering/design sign offs, rewriting procedures/instructions, retooling the assembly line..assuming not hand assembled....my experience managements no like that less is very clear cut is worth it.

Wholly agree, the cup seal seems a bit superfluous, though is early yet, but I just can't see how this config would ever start leaking prove unviable over the lifespan of a individual fluxo, especially unlike the cup cap have to try and damage removing, also far less likely to slip and damage the coil when removing..think even the most fat fingered of us would have to try to lol.....plus going with a fill holes modified center ring only out the door would cut overall production costs maybe even allow a somewhat lower pricing on the improved fluxo's :) hint hint

This. I use the innermost ring just snipped off so that the wicks don't get cramped and just use the bottle applicator (with the syringe tip) to fill. It's pretty mess free.

You could take a razor blade and try slicing the cup seal to the size of the center plug. Not a great out-of-box experience for a beginner, but you'd be able to see if filling with a syringe works okay with the smaller plug. I'd try it now, but my order hasn't come yet.

Was thinking of doing just that as I was dozing off last night....planning on trying maybe today...if feel like fiddling anyway, in the middle of refoaming the woofers and passive radiaters from a pair of vintage RTR tower speakers so may not feel like fiddling afterwards but did spy a nut driver getting the needed tools looking like perfect platform to make a nice concise trim job on a cup cap:)

and "This. I use the innermost ring just snipped off so that the wicks don't get cramped and just use the bottle applicator (with the syringe tip) to fill. It's pretty mess free. " is what I ended up doing with the V1s I opened and the stainless ones from another supplier...would be nice especially for the vapers' with avernions to tinkering if such efforts were no longer necessary...the one I just opened and filled w/o doing anything has been performing almost well though...may end up after using all of my 10 is all moot....

I do the same thing. I just use some smallish scissors to trim off the entire outer lip of the cup seal so that it looks exactly like the center ring. Can't speak to the syringe issue though. When it's cut like the center ring it's so darn easy to remove that I don't bother filling with the syringe.

Thanks, Galthrojh. That answers my question. I was wondering if the snipped plug would stay put when you pulled a needle out of it.

Yeah, I've gotten tired of taking out rings. This I think is how it should be made, so if people wanna bother to take off the ring and drip it, it'd work fine, but with that bottle with the syringe tip, it's just so much less of a hassle.

I'm happy now =) I like the replacement tubes on my XLs more than the ones that come with the deluxe though just because I can fit the Sapphire cone over it easy.

I stopped using the plugs in my CE2-X's awhile ago. Easier to fill with just a bottle, pop on DT and vape away. I haven't had any performance issues using them this way and I've been using them this way for months now. I'm definitely looking forward to picking these new CE2's to try out. They sound like they will perform perfectly w/o having to resort to syringe mods and still come apart for easy cleaning.

I cut a bit of the rubber condom to use it as a way to restrict the airflow a little bit on my eGo while i wait for another cone to come in to modify it.

cuz im stupid and didnt order the cone direct from them, or maybe it was sold out at the time..
anyway, now i need a cone to fit over the Fluxo's and Vision Deux

Anyone have a way to restrict the airflow a little on the reo mini?

I guess I had high hopes. Just found this thread. After my first day of fluxomizer.

They need to write in the product description that less than 2.6ohm will suck big time on the 3.7 (most popular vaping voltage by far). I'm not so ...... about wasting $11. More the waste of time.

All I taste is burnt ... hair. Ok. I'll order the higher resistance. But would be happier if the website would have told me that upfront. If they sold a LR lower than 2.0ohm. I would have bought that and be even more screwed.

I really hope the higher ohm turns out better. Because filling is really easy and they don't leak and look awesome.

Fingers crossed.
