I will have to give sitting them on their sides a run since taking off the clearo every time I set it down gets annoying. I just didnt want it to leak.

I am just trying to see if I can set a trend by calling it sauce......juice doesnt seem to do it justice.

I got my manual in the mail on Friday. I have a 900mah auto and a 900 manual and honestly, I haven't seen much difference. I wouldn't say "pain" but pushing the button doesn't do anything for me and I have tried to take a pull off the manual without pushing the button at least 6 times today.

This may end up being my only manual battery.

You'll know when you're trying too hard to use that manual thinking it's an auto when your eyeballs hit your socks!

Awe to dry burn a clearo do I need to take anything apart?

Take a look at the video in post #4 of this thread. It shows how to take a clearo apart. I was too lazy to go down to the basement and get forceps, so I bent a paper clip, very small hook on it, and used that to get the silicon cap/boot up off the air post. Once it was loose I was able to use a pair of "standard" needlenose pliers to get it out completely. I tried my tweezers first, and just couldn't get a good enough grip to pull it out. The bent paperclip did the trick to get it started though.

Updat on my dry burn experiment. The burned flavor has disappeared, or I'm used to it LOL. This clearo is like new once again!

Ahhhhh.....vaping has turned me into Macgyver.

I use a cheap key ring and bent out one end to pull the inserts out of cartos, I have a tackle box with all of my stuff in it and I pulled the inside out of a highlighter and strung a shoe lace through it for my carto refill spin-ee thing

I like your solution for a sling psychrometer. I used a piece of 1/2" PVC plumbing pipe with a cap, neatly carved for carto insertion. Another piece for a handle with a cap and eyebolt for the lanyard, 3/16" nylon rope. Yeah, I used rope. I tried mason twine, doubled up, and launched the carto and holder around the kitchen one day. Safety seemed to dictate something more substantial, but then I can get "over enthusiastic" at times. Maybe I shouldn't have spun it up to a "high C"?

CindyCated: Thank you SO much for posting the video! I took mine apart (just cap end) I don't know HOW many times I 'burned' it but wow! Was that coil ever GUNKED up! Holy Cow! Of course I got impatient and poked a little with the tweezers - which broke it! LOL! I figure I'm not out anything since it didn't want to really work anyway.

Yipper skipper - I watched a couple more on really taking completely apart and rewicking ... guess what I'm going to be looking for!
