I wanted both but missed out on the abyss. How is the re-wicking on the Ether? Do you have to dump the tank to re-wick or can you turn upside down and remove the base? I stopped using any tanks that I couldn't rewick on the fly.

Essentially you have to dump the juice but if you're about a third full you can pull it out with the tank tipped over and save what in there. I wouldn't let it put you off buying one though...I'm always dumping juice because depending on how long you leave it, often the juice has gone funky anyway and the tank needs a wash...

Loving the Ether bridge. More Abyss stock soon I believe :)

That's a big negative about the Abyss tank/Ether. It's a full tank dump to re-wick. I've been timing my re-wicking to match an empty tank to avoid it but it's a definite con about the design.

There aren't many Boro style bridges that you don't have to dump the tank for....and what's wrong with a bit of timing anyway.....he's very needy you know :D

Hey Charlie are you using 3mm id or your usual 2.5mm id coils in the Ether?
I've been using 3 because of the size of the wick wells but might play with a 2.5 next build.
2.5mm as usual....I would think that the risk of a dry hit goes up exponentially the more cotton you've got in there. Thinning may do the trick though :)

Haven't had a single dry hit with 3mm. No flooding or gurgling either. Very well behaved.

So far no leaks or dry hits with thinning and without. I followed the bogan advice of making sure there's a gap towards the outside of the wick channels....more room for expansion when wicked I suppose @Pigs
It's a great bridge. Makes me curious about the Ether rta
