My camera on my phone is broken, but it really is easy to do. Take a small amount of cotton, roll it in a ball and stick it under the coil. Squonk and let it soak in. I think I got the idea from the "dragon coil" threads. If it were earlier in the day I could try a picture, but my iPad camera doesn't seem to have a flash :?:

Mine don't take up the whole deck like these do, but here is a pic of someone else's:

I tried this as soon as I saw your initial post about not threading it through. I took two pieces (slightly larger than the ones you use for a normal wick), I did twist them up, I left them somewhat loose. They both overlapped underneath of the coil.

So, was the vape the same as threaded?

Not sure why I haven't tried it yet....I guess I'm just chicken....LOL

It's the same if not better with the amount I used. I had not gotten the threaded cotton down to a science yet but using as much cotton as I am underneath of the coil is allowing me to get 3 drags per squonk.

Ok, going to do it tomorrow when I change my cotton. Too lazy to get off the sofa where I'm watching the Olympics now - and I need my glasses to do that LOL Oh, and I'll need to move my coil away from the squonk hole too, come to think of it - it'll get blocked by the cotton

I have some over top of the squonk hole, but I did not ball it up, or twist it too heavily so it is able to soak through without any issue.

I hope I did not void my warranty but on the door of my reo both of the magnets kept falling out. Luckily since the device is all metal they would stick inside of the device (one stuck behind the magnet, the other stuck itself up and onto the firing pin). They were a pain to get back because they are fairly strong. Did I void it by gluing them back into the holes on my door? The magnets on the device itself have not had any problems thus far. I wanted to fix it before I ended up losing them and then I'd have an ugly Reo without a door lol. Has anyone else had this problem?

When you buy spare doors, they are sent without the magnets glued into the door, so that you can place the magnets onto the magnets on the device, then mark them with a sharpie, so that you know which side needs to be glued into the door.

You haven't voided any warranty by doing that yourself.
