The PS3 has been on my "want" list for a while and I've heard they have quite a few of the classics on PSN. I just keep putting off getting it because I'm sure the new PS system is just around the corner!

holiday 2013 or early 2014, the new 4000 (slimmer PS3) should be announced next week I think or next month not sure when?

ePower Dual Coil 6ml Cartomizer - Stainless

**************************************

510 Mega XL Dual Coil Clear Cartomizer

Each cartomizer contains.dual.1.5 ohm coils in parallel giving a total resistance of approximately 3.0 ohms.
Holds approximately 2.5-3.0ml (closer to 2.5)
These produce great amounts of vapor due to the greater heating area of the dual coils but have less potential to burn due to the higher individual resistance of each coil.
Note: Keep them WET, they will burn if they run dry
.
11.5 mm in diameter and 55mm long. Each includes a.soft style black drip tip..
This cartomizer is too big around to fit through eGo cones.

No CE3's yet? Oh and do you have the 510 to 510 extension that is sealed?

That's weird Sandy....I have used an iPhone for 4 years...never had a dropped call. The problem with Android, in my mind, is all the different versions of it.....that's why there aren't near as many apps, or some apps don't work on different devices. For my usage.....everything works, either on the phone or the tablet.....never have to worry about it. The folks who are writing the kinds of apps I use almost always write first for IOS because of the portability. Many developers won't write for Android because they have to keep tweaking for the different implementations.

I have a 7 year old macbook, and a 2 year old windows laptop (with pretty high end specs and more memory). The macbook is faster at most tasks, and has never seen a virus. I would like windows a lot better if they would allow me to strip out the bad applications and extra junk I will never use...like Internet Explorer, which crashes regularly). I totally agree on Google Chrome...use it on both platforms.

If you want crapware removed request it when buying a new computer.

Anyone have trouble with the centertube being loose on the E1 i believe it is. Its the one that has a push-on mouthpiece not screw-on. somethin tells me that if that tube is not in REAL good it will leak after juice put in

The one I have loaded now turns when I take the top cap off, but I haven't had any issues with leaking at all. I'm just real careful when filling it to make sure I don't tip the tube in one direction or the other.

thnk u. i thought i remember a post a while back about the center tube needed to be pressed in from factory and some were not. Dee

FWIW, some pics of my Ovale V8 with some size comparisons.

My CoolerMaster Storm Spawn mouse, the V8, and a 30ml juice bottle.

Holding it lefty...works just fine too.

What is cool is my mouse is partially rubberized too and having the V8 in my left hand while using the mouse with my right...it's just sexaayy. =)

CE3's are back in stock

 

[NC_Fog]

Here you go folks... A CE3 Apollo tank. After still fumbling with the Apollo tank I decided to take a break from it and insert a CE3 into the tank. It works great however I still need to make some tweaks on the holes of the inner tube. It has flooded once so I simply vaped it upside down a couple of draws and all is well now. It has sit all night on the desk and no leaks. I have vaped about 4ml out of it so far.

I have prepunched steel CE3's coming in, not sure it would work with this...
can you post more pics?

did you paint the tank or get that from another Vendor?

 

[NC_Fog]

Eric, this is one of the stock(unmolested) Apollo tanks that I got from you. I tried to get lighter pics showing it but the flash kept reflecting in such a way that you could not see in the tank window at all. I turned off the flash and used my monitor as a back drop. That's why the metal part of the tank looks so dark.

I used two 1/4" sections of neoprene that i cut from dropper bulbs from old juice bottles. I then drilled four 1/16" holes into the CE3 tube. Bottom two are 1/2" from the bottom and the top two are 3/4" down from the top. As mentioned, the hole size/location probably need tweaking.I inserted the tube into the tank using the DIY gaskets to seal it to the tank. It's still easy to service and change out the innards just as the stock CE3. I have to admit though it was a pain in the rump getting the tube properly inserted into the tank.

It sure would be nice if we could get these with the tube already installed and we could just use our own CE3 innards...After more testing and tweaking of course.

Pre-drilled CE3s you say... Do those work with standard DCTs that would normally fit the XL cartos?

Wow, I just nearly killed my Ovale V8.

Short story is, I accidentally glorped instead of dripped when the drip top of my bottle came off...

The juice got all over the connector. By the time I got the atty wiped off and removed, there was considerable juice in there...and I knew that there is no sealed juice well. Yeah, just don't spill juice...I know. But, stuff happens.

So, immediately out came the batteries, then I quickly took it apart:

A frenzied disassemble job


Yes, that is juice on the circuit board. (the stuff on the left half of the case is epoxy/glue/stuff)


I'm very lucky. It only took seconds to have the leak go directly down to the battery connectors on the PCB via gravity. If I'd had pushed the fire button on at that point, well...bad things would have happened quickly.

Two major design flaws I see here:

1. no sealed or at least water-tight connector seal...really, an O-ring is too hard to do?
2. when standing up as usual, any leak will drip down the circuit board directly to the battery connector wires...ouch.

I have no idea why it didn't short out before I got the batteries out, but it didn't. I got it cleaned up with some paper napkin folded to points and a Q-Tip. Ya gotta be super careful as those wires are very thin and could easily snap off the at the solder joints if you let the case halves separate too far.

It's working just fine now still.

I must say that for $30 it's otherwise pretty well made actually. Only those 5 screws hold it together but they do a good job. I like being able to take things apart like that without an ordeal. Plus, that rubberized coating cleans up perfectly.

Now, none of this is Eric's or DV's fault...it's mine for spilling.

I just wish it had a decent connector seal. Methinks I'm gonna find some way to shim in a grommet or o-ring somehow.

Glad its ok, this is exactly why I won't drip with my V8!!!

Cartos and Tanks can leak too.

 

[KalebK]

Cartos and Tanks can leak too.

Yes, this is few and far between though. I seem to have much better luck with cartos and tanks vs. Dripping!!

 

[caffeinator]

Hmm, perhaps I should get a drip shield for it. Not sure if it would help in that case scenario, but it can't hurt.

Drip Shields.. and how they work

For now, I'm gonna throw on a 510 extender so if it does leak from the air holes, it'll have more time for me to see it and catch it.
