Break
through ?
OK, so I was thinking of Br's One Piece Mouth Piece (OPMP) and decided to see if I could modify a Drip Tip and make it work.
So I got out the Spare Parts box and when I was poking around for a Drip Tip I found a Black Silicone Tip that comes with a pack of CE2's.
I have about 120 of them. Never used them just like I never used the Blunt Luer-Lok Syringe. I just
throw both in a bag because it makes putting the CE2's back in the box easier after Dry Burning Washing/Drying.
While holding the Black Silicone tip I thought, "
Man, this is perfect. Why didn't they just make it longer and it would work?"
There was a Blinding Flash of Light and I heard the God of e-Cigs voice say,
"Cut Thou Tube zoiD and Your Quest Shall Be Over."
Of course. It was so simple! I thanked the e-Cig God and got out an Exacto Knife.
I cut off about .200" from the end of a New CE2 and tried to put the Tip in. It didn't want to go. The New CE2 Tubes have a slightly Smaller ID than the Older CE2's. I tried different things but it just didn't work.
Dismayed, I though,
"How can I Enlarge the Tube to except the Tip?" I poked around in my top drawer for something to force the tube wider. Nothing seemed to work.
Once more the e-Cig God commanded me.
"Your Journey is Nay Complete until you Reverse Thy Course."
WTF? Wouldn't it just be easier if the e-Cig God didn't speak in Old English? I held the New CE2 in my hand for a couple of minutes. "Reverse Thy Course"? "Reverse Thy Course"?
Again with the Flash of Light.
I had it. The Battery end of the tube was Larger where they had pressed it onto the Battery Connector.
With trembling hands I pulled of the Tube and "Reversed" it. It made a good tight seal to the Battery Connector. Holding my breath, I pushed the Tip into the tube. It Fit !
I could hear Trumpets blowing as the e-Cig God proclaimed in a Thundering Voice,
"Thou hast Achieved Your Reward. Go forth and Tell My Disciples what thou has Wrought."
Perhaps the Trumpets were a little Over the Top but I have found it's best to not Piss Off the e-Cig God so I just Thank him and got out my Camera.
Here is what it looks like...
It's going to need some overnight testing but so far it is Not Leaking and the Taste is Fantastic.
Maybe the OPMP has been sitting here all along? Ironic as it may be.
