You don't have to disassemble it for cleaning, Zazie! I never did. It comes all put together, just unscrew the deck, the top, DT, etc., then give it a nice warm bath (I like Dawn), and you're ready to install your coil and wick. Wicking is easy. The difficult part is the filling and refilling of that monster--all the screwing of different rings (airflow, juice) clockwise, counterclockwise, and then again in reversed order. I could never remember that part and had to watch Phil's or Ruby's video almost every single time I had to refill or rebuild.
Yikes, I didn't even know about the filling complexities! Now it's going to take me even longer to tackle this thing.
Badazd? 
I have a question about the Hastur. Sorry. Just one more.
Has anyone here used/know anything about Vaperscoil? Miraculously, they have the Hasturs in stock, I'm just a little suspicious that they may be the old version (without the o-ring on the cap that keeps the whole thing together). I sent them 2 emails, no reply. Any information would be most welcome.
Also, have any of you ordered that optional kit of inserts? It has two dual-hole inserts that look interesting.
I like my Hastur.

Right???
ETA: That's Vaperscoil photo.
I simply use nic pg base for its thinner texture, just easier to work with overall. Neither is right or wrong.
Reading back I have a few good laughs. You all are a crack up group and lots of love going on here
Thanks Letitia. Now I don't feel to hmm alone doing DL at around somewhere below 10mg

want to order some and now I am not sure. Do I need clockwise or counter?
Thanks to SMT I found I need counter.Just watched a lite video. Coil needs to be anticlockwise. Then it'll fit perfectly. Just unwind one and re-wind it. Done.
ETA: Just saw Pigs is on it already.
I never had the original version, but I've seen a bunch of videos (and I looked at my updated Hastur just now).
Hastur has two top caps, if you will. The very top cap/cover where the DT goes (right), with the tiny ring inside, has not been changed. It's the second top chamber cap (left in your picture) with filling holes that's been redesigned and outfitted with a big o-ring that sits on the bottom of that cap and and holds the glass tank in place. In the V1, the whole tank would fall apart when you tried to access the deck because there was nothing to keep the top of the glass tube in place. It was a nightmare and all the reviewers complained bitterly, so Cthulhu immediately changed the design and even offered the new cap for free to the unhappy Hastur owners.

The good news is that the updated cap is still available.
So it looks like the Ares 2 is finally trickling into US stores. Anyone know anything about VaporDNA?
Very good vendor. I use them often. Ditto Element Vape.
So are these guys:

Yes and some of those people went on to be the modders of today and or very respected members of the vaping community
You need to wrap a coil yourself and make sure you start the other direction. It's an easy fix.
I often find the same with the prebuilts if there not right you won't be able to fit it in in the sense they have asked you to.
Hope this helps.
Yes we don't like the heat much anymore.....you can't tolerate it so well as you age. My wife Veronica hates it. Days are spent trying to keep the house cool as we don't have air con. We shut some of the shutters and have the windows open at night.....well he ones with security grills on anyway.
These days we find ourselves looking forward to September when temps are down to 28 C rather than 31-35
At least we have a dry heat here in the south of France....it does get very humid in Sydney doesn't it
That was a common complaint. They didn't bring much more to the table except complexityI never wanted to make my own coils... I was a carto/clearo person for a very long time. Still am, come to think of it. I love those blister packs. The best compromise was my first Kanger mini--premade coils and an RBA coil. I still like it. Great tank.
But I couldn't resist forever. Kayfuns (clones), Lemo, Taifun, Hurricane, Erlkonigin. My favorite vape was the Kayfun 4, ideal draw, easy build, but not necessarily user-friendly. Just a bit over engineered for my taste.
Good belated morning shinies but actually nearing lunchtime then siesta. 
I sure look forward to my summer siestas especially when I've had a bad night. The heat saps your strength too
