Quick Question On Orchid V4 Phillip Screw?

[crxess]

Good morning, the Orchid V4 is picky bout how it wicked.
Plenty Youtube videos on how to properly wick one.
The V4 has a bottom fill screw.
Gonna take awhile to get the feel for it.
Rest of you got any insight that you care to share, please post it.
Dont wish for this to leak on my mods lol.

Couple of basic tips:
Spare fill screw o-rings are a must. Better to have and not need than to be without the tank for a .05c item.
Needle tip bottle works best for me for filling. Allows air back past the needle. SLOW FILL a little at a time.
PMMA tank makes filling much easier - No clue why, it just does. I can fill my 22mm PMMA in 15 -20 seconds
Blow out excess in air tube after filling if needed.(Loosely wrapped in a paper towel)

26ga. Dual coil @.4ohms, short wicks, running 30w makes great flavor and very decent Vapor.

Very nice vape, love it so far.
Though if I feel it up with juice from the bottom it leaks through the mouth peice.
So, I'd been filling from the top.
Orchid looks great mounted on my ZNA.
Hits like a fraight train, so I just take quick small draws lol.
May need to reduce nic level.

Put a piece of plastic between the driptip and the tank. I don't even use the fillhole-- just unscrew the tank from the base, and fill there.

Does seem easier that way vs having to remove that tiny screw every time.
Good idea bout using plastic.

I loved my V4 never got dry hits amd rarely leaked. Then since tobeco makes such quality stuff, the bottom ring gulled up making it nearly impossoble to build on

I had same problem with my fogger v4 i took a little handheld torch to it as i unscrewed and came apart

Thinking of getting a Kayfun now lol.
Reason being, like to do a single coil build vs having to building dual.
Though Im happy with the Orchid V4.
May do a quad build on my 454 big block, usely do a single or dual build on that one.

I use my Orchids as single coils. No problem.
