So I thought of an idea. I like the map tank but the cartomizers are better IMO. What if you drilled a few holes in the side of the carto and stuck it in the MAP instead of the clearomizer. Haven't tried it but don't see why it wouldn't work. Thoughts?

Gummy Bear already did this with his "Gummy tank" check the "modders" section of the ECF. However, I believe he just stuck a whole steel CE2 through his tank with filed holes in the sides, you can do the same with the MAP tank. He also made a hole in the side of his tank to re-fill it, he added a screw in the side of the tank to plug the hole back up after filling it like that.
Gummy Bear recommended the following; file the holes instead of drilling, drilling leaves a chance that the drilled plug will drop inside and short out the battery, and you could cut the wires drilling.
The only problem I see with Cartomizers is the filler material getting all messed up with drilling or full of file shavings.

wonder if you can cut it like a e2 and use some thread to keep the filler in place? it would not dry out so you wouldn't have to wory about keeping it wet. might leak though but might be worth a try
Thanks..Didn't know it was done all ready. These cartos have wicks in them like the clearomizers as far as I can tell. The top is exaclty the same with the coil wrapped around the wick just in a ceramic case. Not sure what makes them better because in essence they should perform identical. I'm still green to most of this so I could be wrong. I'll give it a try when the one i'm using isn't working well anymore.
Do you have a picture of the inside of one of them, or a link to the cartos you are using?

Its just long enough to be flush with the delrin cap the way it is. I'm tempted to cut one open to see what exactly is in it. Not sure if its a small resevoir like clearomizer or a bunch of filler...will find out eventually
This is a Boge Dual Coil in a 5ml tube. 80x80 ss screen holds it together. Vapes good, floods prolifically.
I ran out of time to play with it, filling the tube makes for a flood of biblical proportion nothing to keep the juice from slipping through to the center of the packing. Using it as it is in the pic. with a wet wick works fine.

That is what the MAP tank uses, you just have to cut the CE2 leaving a 1/4" of the tube closest to the threaded end.
Check out this thread for details.

So, to answer your posted question yes you could file a couple holes through the side of the tube and then press the it through both caps. However, I don't know how well it will keep the wicks wet, or how good it will vape. Seems to be more of a hassle to me than what it is worth though.
Edit to add;
I just caught this in your first post, You should not be using the clearomizers in the MAP tank , it will leak.
You have to cut the steel CE2's, which are the same thing as the link that you posted.

Lol..Well that makes sense then...so you can use these or the clearomizers. Still like them without the map. Thanks for setting me straight.
Correct, don't use Clearomizers.
You can look through the posts on the COV supplier thread for more helpful information on servicing the MAP tank.
Also, doing a search on the ECF for "MAP Tank" should pop up threads about the MAP tank and how to service it.

It can be done but it is very fiddly. It will involve some trial and error to get it just right.
The trick is to start with a small hole situated just high enough above the threads to clear
whatever you are using for bottom plug. The hole has to be small enough that juice will not
flow freely, or the carto will flood and leak out the bottom. Viscosity of juice will effect this
as well. The right size hole will allow a little juice to seep through when you take a "drag".
What really makes this fiddly is you can get it just right in your a/c'd home and then go
outside where it is hot and it will start flooding because heat will change viscosity of juice.
