hmmm...is this HIS creation or is this being distrbuted? Rod from Harmony has distributer interest linky on his site...maybe he is letting the e-cigz people sell it...
did you buy from Harmony or the aussie site?

Its an old, classic cart design. There is a flat side on the tank (look closely) to let air get around it. The spacer on the top maintains the air-bypass-spacing at the mouthpiece. Air enters through the thread holes in the atty, goes by the tank and out the mouthpiece hole
just like a mini
Stage one of my wick troubleshooting is complete. Sorry Im unable to do videos but youll get the idea
and you can do it yourself with little trouble. And I believe I unintentionally confirmed brs suspicions about the gunk-in-the-slits.
First I took an unused R4, cleaned & dry-burned. Cut off the tube & put it into an empty, completely dry syringe-mod (un-topped). Maintaining vertical, I carefully placed a large drop of water (I know, I know but this is experimentation and water is a good, constant control liquid) at the base, deliberately avoiding the wicks. Fired the coil and tilted & rolled the unit to bring the water to a wick tail, maintaining as much vertical as possible. Immediately upon wick/water contact, the water raced no it FLEW up the wick into the cup, dousing the orange glow across the entire length of the coil. Startlingly fast. Holy shyte fast! Repeat, repeat, repeat.
I repeated the process with a stock R4 out of the box (cleaned & dry-burned). Identical results. Repeat, repeat, repeat.
Then, I repeated the entire process in the syringe with a very well used & lesser performing R4 with the classic gunked-at-the-slits wick. It wicked all of the water but at a significantly slower speed and never did completely douse the dry-burn glow from the coil. Plenty of stinky vapor on the water side but the coil did not get entirely cooled. Repeat, repeat, repeat
It appears that the gunk, which has previously been observed to separate & brittle-ize the wick strands (to look & act like charring or burning) is actually clogging the wick right before the liquid gets to the real heat.
Add to this the cooler actual operating temperature & our juice viscosity issues and well, you get the idea

Yep... I've foam-modded a couple dozen mini carts and this looks just like 'em...
If this delivers a constant drip(or dip or tip)-quality vape for 5ml worth of juice... I'm sold. Despite the E2s, E2 mods and Raidy's genesis, I find I keep returning to my trusty old exposed atty device. On a good day, when it's a-sizzling, there's something about it that can't be beat (at least yet), and it's not to do with shear volume of vapour.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch. I finally got a 3.0Ω 510 XL that works like it ought to. It's the 5th one out of a box. I had to remove the tube and tinker with it a bit, but this one SMOKES! Every now and then I think the wick quits working right, but then I find out that the tank is dry. In other words, it's going through a refill faster than I am accustomed to. I need to learn how to keep my sips a little smaller. Man, I wish I could get all of them to do this.
by removing the tube you mean you made it one of your bottle mods or you adjusted the wick length and slipped it back up in the original tube?
I am testing this one in its original tube and removing it for inspection and possibly cleaning at each refill. I did a bit more than adjust the wick length.
Bad, I see different prices on his website (24.95 and 4.95). How does one get 50% off? Is there a coupon code?
I think I'm gonna let you guys guinea pig this one. $24.95 for an atty sounds kinda steep without a warranty. My spidey sense is tingling...
8-o Trade secret
ok, I'll trade secrets, tell me what you did, and I'll tell you what convoluted black nichrome is?
