For those not familiar with the 8.5ml bottles, you might want to take a moment and read up on them. Bottle porn They can be a little finicky and have some quirks to work around... The first one being they actually only hold around 7.25ml instead of the 8.5 that is advertised...

This is a great thread for me to read, cause I need more options. The bottle and tube I got with my bottom fed mod is just ridiculously hard to use. It squonks great and it drains really good but there's no outcome where I don't have an issue getting the tube into the bottle. There's always juice everywhere, it's crazy tight. The hole on the cap is bigger than the tube and the hole in the bottle, I don't even use the cap cause there's no point, the tube fits into the bottle so tightly that really the cap is useless. To fill I always have to take the tube out of the mod and out of the bottle, fill the bottle, and then try for 5 mins to squeeze the tube back into the bottle and reinsert it back into the mod, that's when the juice comes out, it's like a vacuum affect.

Can you just pop the bottle outward enough to unscrew the bottle cap, refill, screw the bottle back on the cap?

Put a piece of paper towel at the bottom of the tube to prevent any leakage. I do that with all my different bottom feeders.
Nope lol the cap isn't what seals it, the tube is what makes the seal. I always thought it was the other way around. Not with this bottle set up. The only way to fill it is take the tube out of the bottle and fill it then struggle squeeze the tube back in.

Guess I don't quite understand what type of bottle-tube setup you have. All the various types of bottle and tubes I have, they both need to be sealed, but unscrewing just the bottle has always worked the best so I'm not messing around with the tubing.

Yeah that's the thing, the only thing that seals it is the bottle itself lol the cap can slide up and down and all over the place it doesn't matter. I don't even use it anymore and I have no leaking or anything. The holes are different sizes.

Picked up my new-to-me O16 and Captivape flow ring at the post office... haven't built it yet but it looks killer on the Mokooo Neon DHL delivered this morning.

Did you have to sign for your mokooo?

Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

Yep, which is why I had it delivered to my office. I mean, my wife works from home but I don't need her signing for a DHL package from Italy, lol.

And, the hype is real. I'm absolutely sure I need another O16 now. Tossed a quick 26ga 1.2ohm Kanthal coil between the posts and the flavor is unreal. Both air holes fully open is a damn near perfect restricted lung hit.

Got a beginner BFer question. Besides the Origen and NarDA what other BF RDAs also come with a standard pin as well as a BF? I'm trying to get another one that I can use BF/non-BF. Any recommendations? I prefer the size of those two and the Marquis. I'm not overly fond of the shorties.

Thanks!

I'm also interested myself. The only others I know of are the pancake and the Odin you can get it BF off there website. And the NarDA BF pin fits the hobo 3.1 too.

The Nipple has an accessory BF pin available. Vaper's Hobby Shop should have more in stock in a couple of weeks.

The Nipple RDA

The BF pin is also on the VHS site.

And, of course, let's not forget about the M-atty. :lol:
