Nighty night my friends

See you on the relaxing Sunday morn.

It just means that the fit between two surfaces may be a bit looser than it should be thereby not providing such a good seal.... between the two halves of the vapeshell for example. It often happens with lower quality machining or the use of lower quality metals.

Hope that helps and sorry for the late response

Thank you, and I'm happy to say I inferred the meaning correctly.

juice is first,i'll learn with you. second would be a squonking pin.

I watched this! Let me put it this way-I can push down on the top mechanism without a mess. The one he was warning about.

I’m thinking a vacuum issue? I’m using 50/50 juice.

here's what should happen:

what happens when you do that?

@Terri McVeety also, I'm proud to say I have tried before to squonk with an RDA, that still had a blind pin in it

Haha! Not beyond my scope of goofs, however I just converted this one for the pumper right before trying it.

I’m pumping away with it not in the mod and getting no juice.

Nothing. Not a drop-well once a tiny particle flew but that’s all folks

I'll just take some closeup pics of the pump piece separately so you can see if yours is missing something

Have you taken out the pump mechanism and checked that the hose is properly connected? It should look like this:

Earlier I was notified by a far away mate that a limited number of Dvarw FL's went on-sale. I managed to snag one.

@Terri McVeety

plus I did trim a few mm off my tube. Check if there is a tiny hole down the centre of the pump mechanism too

The tube is bent right up to the bottle. Tiny hole? The one in the metal cylinder? Yes it’s there. I also tried drying the o rings (hope I never have to replace them) still nothing.

more Luna fur. She's too curious for her own good

There's also a side hole. I doubt the o-rings will do much. Cut a mm or 2 off the tube. And then I'd try it with warm water pumping it a few times. If it's still a pita after than, I'm clueless

Try drying off the pump mechanism and then make sure the top of the pump is scewed on tight. See the knurled ring just below the spring? Tighten that clockwise. Maybe even untighten just a little then re-tighten. If thats not tight enough to seal the pump you won't be getting proper suction.

*pokes head in and looks around*

*Waiting patiently for some mockery towards my old hairstyle.*

We all need a laugh and/or a chuckle so I'm taking one for the team

I did get a good chuckle. Thanks for that! And in regards to Mel....You wish! I think you look more like this guy...

I may start calling you Fabio...

Has been my problem many, many times. They say NOTES NOTES NOTES, but it is hard to notate every little drop or smidgen you put in especially if you do not know for a week if it made a difference or not

I agree completely, and at the start I wrote on masking tape on the mixes. Which didn't work handwritten notes get lost way too easily for me.

I found the only method that works for me is using the Notes: portion of my ejuice calculator app
That way everything I tweak, I can note it at the same time. And a lot of the time I tweak something that I've previously written: perfect! don't change a thing!!!!!!

I get there in the end....... usually

Did you snip off the bottom of the tube on a diagonal so it's not flush with the bottom of the bottle?
