You have to actually thread the bottle top most of the way up the screw, so there is only maybe <1mm of tubing sticking out the top of the bottle top.
Doing this also ensures a rock solid, leak proof connection.
Edit
The end of the 510 screw should go all the way through the bottle cap and into the dripper tip as well, that is what holds them both in place and tight together.

Mine is the same as BigLungs. I made the hole in the bottle cap a little larger and twisted the cap over the tubing and feed screw.
Clark, I can't seem to find the method in post 229 of the Printed Mechanical BF Thread. Do I have the right thread?
BigLungs, I see what you're saying. I'm using a reo grand bottle, without the dripper tip insert but with an o ring. I'm hoping that will be enough to keep juice from leaking? That also means i will have to drill a bigger hole in the reo bottle top.

Same here Kingdal, removed drip tip from bottle and using an o-ring. No leaking but when I first started using it the bottle came off the screw so air was leaking when I squeezed bottle and I had to push the bottle farther up the screw. One of these days I am going to order one of those 9ml Vapage bottles to swap it out. Shipping fee for a couple of bottles is only thing stopping me.
Sumratio, did you have to drill out the bottle cap? I've been twisting the #### out of the cap but the positive screw just won't fit. I measured the hole on the cap and it came out to 4.2mm. The positive screw with the tubing on it is over 5mm so I was hoping some force would squeeze it on, but no luck. If you did drill it out, what size bit did you use?
Hey gdeal. Yep, been studying that that post for a while now. It recommends a 4mm hole in the bottle. Mine is already over 4.2mm but still cant get it to fit over the pos screw. Is it just push and turn or is there some other technique to it? Thanks!
Edit: or is the reo bottle cap made of harder plastic?

I think where you guys are going wrong is you are using the bottle cap instead of just the dripper tip like in the picture above[emoji651]
Just switch mine to using the tip like Gdeal showed. I had a time boring the hole out but now that it is done I like it better than using the cap. I just kept working it until I could get the tube inserted, which was already on the feed screw and the plastic was thin enough to push up over the end of the screw.
Thanks for the tip Gdeal

Gdeal, are you not happy with the way the V4 turned out? No more pics of prototype, no release of design. "Bug bug irritate." <<Something my dad always used to say to me.
Does anyone know off hand what would cause the mod to shut off when I press the fire button with no atty attached?
A reset is usually a bad battery connection Check your soldering on the + -
Allmost all problems like that are solder connections

Whoa Steamer! It was a simple question just wanting to know if there was already info regarding the post that you made on the REOs forum!
