Actually, the plastic "plug ring" does work very well. It's a full ring with only one tapered plug that goes into the fill hole, and when you attach the base cap it compresses it and forces it solidly into the hole. I've been using mine that way with good results. Nice to not need anything but a fingernail to fill
And yes, indeed, don't lose the insulating grommets that seal the glass, or it will leak! These are similar to the ones on Kanger PT2 and the like.
No, don't have my first coil. The "slot car" I built it for is long gone, too....
But a big congrats! See, it's not that hard! And once it's stuffed with wick and down inside your topper, nobody's gonna see it anyway
Unless, of course, you put up a pic...
Regarding logos... Most any product or corporate one will be a registered trademark. While an individual could probably get away with making up one for personal use, any company trying to market them could be in for some serious litigation - that they'd lose. So in that instance, getting the approval of the TM owner is a must. For government ones, maybe contact the PR people at the nearest base for a start? Unless the company or agency has a policy against use by certain product types, seems to me they'd be happy for the free advertising. But then, I'm not a company, so what do I know? (Remember when Kodak got worked up about Paul Simon's "Kodachrome" hit.... sheesh, you get upset about tradmark infringement when your product name is a big hit???)
