Scubagen Mods

Well here is video of the DSUv4 working, and after reviewing the video you actually can see the bubbles of air being sucked back into the resivor showing the vacum hold the juice level in place and then sucks air back in when the vacum is to great in the resivoir

Here it is:

I was (WAS) going to try it in place of the SS mesh.
I guess it could be done, but I just gave up and put it over the mesh.

Yes thats what i was thinking about too, guess i'll order some soon.

DSUv4 Test: (Ceramic wick)
Well I was curious so... I installed a ceramic wick using the ceramic sleeving material. Here are some pics:
Pulled straight through bottom hole, then hooked it and pulled it up through the center hole, then trimmed the ends.

Refilled the tank:

Installed the bottom cap (no holes to drill this way)

And then waited for wick to saturate, notice air bubbles:


Beleive it or not it actually produces more vapor than the SS and the taste is not as robust as the SS but very nice.

Will run through a couple tanks and see what the results are.

Well congratz Dan. Now I wonder how it would work in a Scubagen v3.
I'll let you know when I test to see.

Would using a bigger square (idk the measure.. I guess less squares per square inch) mesh be better for thicker liquids? Would it improve wicking or just cause it to flood?

more holes per in means more wicking...period...thicker liquids wick better than thin so higher holes per in is mainly for thinner liquids past a certain point...

Personally, I've had thinker liquids wick better with # 325 mesh and thinner stuff wicking much better with higher count mesh like #400, but that's just been my experience and I have not played with higher counts like #500 yet.

Was actually my point...and I have one setup with #500 for my 100%PG juices...between that and making the wick thicker increasing coil wraps and voltage I'm almost in vape heaven...

NEED...MORE.....HEAT....UNNNNGHHHH!!!!...thump
