Ah, I see. I believe the parts you are referencing at are intended to act as electrical insulators for the SS wicks, reducing the chance of shorting the coil/wick assembly.

Do you know where people might find items for said purpose? I'd like to be able to insulate the Mesh Wick from the tank Hole.

I was thinking of trying a small section of heat shrink myself but didn't get around to it yet

It would really need to be something that would not melt or burn... something that would withstand a lot of Heat, and some abuse. Heat Shrink would never do.

Ahh.... Now we are on the right page.

I can see where I caused the confusion in not being more specific by describing the indicated feature as the ceramic insulation elements in a genesis style atomizer (bottom and/or wick hole).

I was not aware of ceramic wicks or ceramic cups in other devices, seems I still have much to learn in this area.

I will go back to reading for now as this in not a good place for in depth discussions of such things.

Many thanks to all for the new avenues of interest/research. :)

Kanger makes an RBA Tank now, with an insulated mesh wick hole.

I don't remember this Kanger RBA model, but the Insulated Wick Hole keeps the Mesh from Shorting against the Tank Hole. If you like an Unoxidized Mesh, the Coil will start to Glow from BOTH ends, instead of just the (+) as you get it going, and the Red Glows will meet in the middle. It's too cool to watch.

Are ceramic wicks on the market now?

There are some out now (4 I think), and a new one called BD13 that is even better which will be released soon. It's in Testing now.

One that's been out is called FC-2000, but it doesn't Chain Vape well.

I looked none there just aluminum gutter I think he just likes to make noise:unsure:

A mental image just will not go away.

Items needed:
hose sprayer that can shoot a straight stream
stake or post that sprayer can be attached to
sprinkler timer or remoter control water valve

Application:
connect hose to timer or rc valve
connect sprayer to other end
fasten hose+sprayer to stake or post
aim water stream at the little pecker's favorite area
set timer or be ready with remote

next time he comes by it should go something like this


bang bang bank SPLAT!!!


even wild critters can be trained, just takes longer (unless compared to teenagers, then it's quicker)

Enjoy :evil:
