Boobtube strikes again!! I have to go buy a new car today but when I get back I'll post the best wicking method for V1 rbas I've found; empirically speaking. Still, gurgling is an indication of flooding, you're right. How many watts, airflow control setting and what VG% are you vaping?
I vape 70vg 30pg, I can't remember what wattage I vaped as it's been a while, in the 20w I'd say for the 0.9ohm coil, airflow still wide open.

I used to use a wicking method I found on youtube, it's been posted here a few times, where the cotton is thinned out and slighly off the deck. With flooding, I would get gurgling and juice coming up every single time I built one, I mean, there were no hotspots, and I built around 0.9 ohm and as far as I know the coil was fine. This happened on both my subtank Mini's , I bought two for switching flavours, I know, lazy, but yeah haha
hm on the v1 i have never had any flooding issues with any wicking i've used. On the v2 i think a simple drop down on each side of cotton works well. As in just cut it and droop it down to touch the bottom, then screw on the little ring and poke to make sure it covers the holes.

Rixsta, flooding with a STmini rba? Whaaat? What makes you think you're flooding with a V1 rba? If you are leaking out of the afc you have a seal leak somewhere in the tank because the V1 rba will not leak even without a coil or wick. The V2 (plus) rba however will leak if not wicked, or wicked properly, because of the new juice hole design.
If you think you're flooding because you're getting hot harsh hits that's a different story but rare on a V1 rba; generally peeps complain about burny hits which often can be attributed to underwicking or bad coil symmetry. Anyway, let us know bro.
I can verify the V2 issues. I don't have the V1 so can't compare it, but I was having serious leaking from the air holes with the V2. I was using a rather light wick (Japanese cotton) and had big time leaking. It leaked half a tank while being bounced around in my knapsack. All the seals look fine.

I rewicked it using a thicker cut of cotton, and longer so it essentially touches the bottom of the build chamber. The wicking holes have to be completely covered (I actually have a bit of cotton poking out). If not the liquid will simply flow into the chamber, down the air shaft and out the air flow holes. It completely solved the problem.

that lemon taste is what makes it though, most of the real cereals that are fruit have that kind of lemony zing to
antidote taste like what it was described to me creamy strawberry with a little bit of bakery for that crunch taste
but that has always been my fav ice cream so i had to try that juice

Did you let Captain Loopy sit for a little while? Lemon or lime sometimes take awhile (like a week) to mellow out and blend in. At first it's like sucking on the real thing that isn't quite ripe, but it settles down after the other flavors catch up. But then you have to vape it up fast, because it may continue to fade.
Omg, I haven't ever heard of this Mech Sauce before... I just went to the site to see what you guys were talking about. The prices, omg!!! Seriously cheap [emoji15] [emoji33] [emoji43]
Is the juice good? I mean, obviously you guys buy it but... at those prices, I have to try it!!!

I just got my first order this week and I'm very pleased with it. It was worth the wait.

Thanks for input! What do you mean by worth the wait? Does shipping take a while?

Due to high demand they got flooded with orders. Took over a week to get out....but they are very good at updating where they are on orders on their facebook. Without trying before hand I got 300 ml of juice and I'm glad I did. So far the Mech Milk and Smurf Murder have been really good out of the box. I still have Empress Milk and Apollo's Nectar steeping

I tried Mech Sauce, Apollos Nectar, Captain Loopy, Antidote, and the Nana one.

They have been good except for Antidote. I tried it last week but I couldn't really taste anything with it. I will give it another go after it sits for a little while longer. Apollos Nectar could be an ADV for me.

My order did take about 10 or so days to get to me. They do seem pretty busy.

A buddy at work gave me a bottle to try and I loved it. It was called Glen's Cocoa I think and it was max VG. In the STM at 30w it tastes like hot chocolate.

Nice. I would run my car into the ground but it is looking a little ragged and my wife does like keeping up appearances.
So I drove my Blazer to pick up a 2005 Tahoe for my wife today....never made it there..... a 250lb rock fell off a trailer in on- coming traffic and totalled my blazer.....my hands are shakinng right now...probbably lucky to be allive. ..holy shiii

Can you guys compare the juice to MBV? I used to get my juice there but have been vaping TBD LIQUIDS exclusively since last October. It is not cheap... but it is good. And, I've seen more expensive juice... soooo... recently I bought a lil bit of DIY stuff, made a few last week. Going to taste em this weekend. Since I moved to using the subtank series, I blow through juice... ugh ...

Saw the oncoming truck and trailer swerving and hit my brakes. The rock was windshield height when it bounced of the road and launched in the air into my lane. Damage doesn't look too bad but for a 96 I'm sure it's a total........stressed.....@#&%$!*&$!%#!!!!!
