I wish I'd known. I've just found your posts about it from way back in this thread so
I'll order https://www.fasttech.com/p/2172500 unless you tell me different.
I had seen it at FT before but just assumed it was a press fit from the pictures.

I'll bet, because I got the extra bell tank etc. with the other FT clone and you didn't, that I'll get a press fit with this Hotcig.:unsure:.
Read the reviews for it on FT, you will be amazed at just how well folks like this one.
Even FT staff was saying it didn't come apart. They don't vape (probably)

Hi Chanelvaps. I'm trying to love it... but it ain't easy. I know it's a clone, but still. The threads are crunchy to say the least; the chimney needs a lot of brute force to operate (push up, down and remove); the post screws are pathetic. I started with the acrylic bell cap and when I opened the tank to refill, the chimney cap got stuck on the inner post of the dome and wouldn't budge--had to use needle nose pliers to get it out. :facepalm: No more acrylic bells for me.

Another problem is filling--I can't get a lot of eliquid into that tank to begin with, and then, as the liquid level goes down, the wicking stops working (because the wicks are so high in the tank). I may try a straw refilling method next time--I only got an hour or so of vaping at 11 watts before I had to refill again. But the vape was nice--while it lasted.

Next time I'll experiment with my nano section (tank and cap separate), but not for a while. Back to my Kayfun 4 Tobeco clone, which is still in the lead. :)
Katya!
Such a goofball am I. Bad advice the other day! Allow me to retract the advice of pushing down the chamber/chimney a little with the acrylic tank.
This is what I do with the other Taifun, not the TGT 2's. I am talking about the middle one, not the GT1 but the one that came next with the adjustable airflow.

That one is called (originally) Taifun GT-S

I'm looking for a 60 w tc by iPV or smy & rta or rba (maybe a kf4 or tgt2) running max vg using ni200 and kgd so I can use an ADV while watching ABC and charging via usb.

Remember when we used words and not initials?
Yes, LOL... I dont understand a quarter of what you just posted. I guess I'm very out of it...

I probably would not know how to help even if it was all written out because I know nothin about watts and all that regulated rigmarole. :)

Hes looking for a temp control 60 watts IPV mod and either a rebuildable tank atomizer
or rebuildable dripping atomizer (possibly a Kayfun or a Taifun) his juice will be max VG and he is going to use Nichrome to build and Koh Gen Do Japanese cotton and he is going to vape it all day while watching American Broadcasting Systems and charging it via his computer cord..............mostly he was just making fun of the acronym world we have all jumped into, and most, including myself, have hard time keeping up (and I am a girl)

What gives me pause is that I understood the entire sentence without skipping a beat, as if I were reading regular English. Confirms how far down the vaping rabbit hole I've gone.

I'm an artisan broom maker now, but I came from the tech side. I got real used to using acronyms... my favorite was the original acronym for the PC Card - PCMCIA. It stood for Personal Computer Memory Card Interface Applications, but we always said People Can't Memorize Computer Industry Acronyms. A close runner up was TWAIN which honestly stood for Technology Without An Interesting Name. Vaping terminology is second nature.

That said, I still can't keep up with the young folks and their Twitter abbreviations. Sheesh!

I was just going to mention "Twain" but finished reading your post first.
