Oh ok I misunderstood. And it's no problem I have that post on speed dial.
Hopefully the new r4s will do away with all of that. I've been lurking That thread. Bad has been testing out an 808xl, and it seems, so far, so good.

I know the PTB filler wicks very well, but has nobody noticed that it gives off plastic (nylon) fumes as it gradually hardens and turns brittle?
I have never had any plastic taste from PTB filler. I think its ratted for up to 300 degrees F, as its used in boiling water in tea. As for using paint strainers instead of PTB i would be carfull as it not intended for high heat aplications. It could be burning some kind of plastic fumes.
And boiling water is only 212 F or 100 C, not very hot. Try heating some nylon up, like against a soldering iron. I've examined PTB material after getting a whiff, and it sure looks funky. Personally I use metal, like fine bronze wool. Steel wool is ok, but could rust.

Opps. After using bronze wool for a while, I've had a dark corrosion develop on the metal with some water-heavy juices, e.g. ecigexpress Watermelon. As a copper byproduct this could be more toxic than rust. Please take note.
