Here is a photo of drip version on my Precise Plus 16340. It is exactly the same diameter as my Penelope.

I am using the Vamo but have the instructions all printed and waiting for me to have time to get the Term set up. Tomorrow after all orders are shipped before Christmas, I have set some "ME" time aside to play with it. LOL I will let you know how it goes.

It is easier than one might think, to set it up that is, finding time mmm, that's another story
Just completed my second attempt at a mesh wick for my Terminator. First one OK, but nothing special. Just a rolled SS mesh all by itself. Seemed to leak & gurgle a lot.
Second attempt I wrapped the SS mesh around a 3mm silica wick and assembled as usual. I pre-oxidized the mesh before rolling. Burnt the silica wick before wrapping the mesh onto it. The dripped some juice (one drip) on mesh and flamed the wick. Repeated three times. Then assembled the coil. No hotspots. Yea!
Coil came in at 1.6 / 1.7 ohms. I'm breaking it in at 3.4v. Nice vapor production. Little harsh taste, as to be expected with new build. I'll break it in for next several hours and we'll see. So far very pleased.

I use 3.5 mm silica with in the coil but I cut some of the strands off so to have only 2 mm running down the channels.
The mesh set up is of great interest to me, keep us updated please.
In fact I may try it right now, I'm thinking
OK I have it ready to install but I'm going to wait till it's time to re coil as I have just re-done both of mine

I have not dripped to the point it floods to find out, but I have been dripping about 6 drops at time with no problem.
Other than easier to not drip into the cup, is there any difference as just where the juice that is put in there goes vs the large Terminator?
you can drip in the same way with large and small...basically all goes to the ceramic housing. so if you wanted to make a drip mode out of large terminator tank, you could take off the ss tank and top caps and you have yourself a dripping atty. so you just need the base, the rebuildable part/ceramic housing/wick/wire, and mouthpiece...and in a sense, you have a very similar atty to drip mode, just drip a few drops into the mouthpiece and vape away. just make sure to keep the mouthpiece screwed all the way down to the knurled ring so juice doesnt leak out
also, both drip mode and the way i described above work as bottom feeding atties too!

I did it! And I must say WOW! Much easier than I thought although took longer than I expected....DHL came, unpacked the order and got it on the website, customer called, answered 2 emails...so much for "ME" time. LOL This is a nice device, great taste, lots of vapor and great throat hit! I used the supplied coil out of shear laziness but it's great! Here's a really bad phone pic of the Terminator on my new Evic!
I think you will find this quite interesting, I purchased an extra ceramic piece with the idea of using a Dremel to increase the channels size. So I did this very carefully, a little surprised that it cut pretty easy.So I go ahead and make a wick and coil using 3.5 mm silica which fits real nice now.
Here's where it gets "good", I screw the RB assembly into the base and lock down the ring, When I go to screw on the mouth piece it feels like it wants to cross thread but that was not the case either. On the ceramic piece on the side of the wick channels was actually just a tad bit higher than threads on the metal piece that the mouth piece screws onto.
I removed the ceramic and run it back and forth a bit on a piece of Emory board. The ears on the ceramic were sticking out just far enough past the threads that the mouth piece threads would not start, I had to use a magnifying glass to even see this as it was that close. So now I have DIY V2 ceramic

I just took one apart and changed the ceramic cup, it went back together fine. I did notice on mine that if I wasn't very careful, it seemed like the mouthpiece was wanting to cross thread. Anyone else see that?
I think that it has been 2 weeks now since I received my 1st Terminator, I finally cleaned up my four DC tanks that I have not touched since, even my gens which work extremely well are being neglected. The Terminator is that good, hey if you are on the fence about spending a few bucks more then get off of that fence and go for it.
That is what I was normally experiencing and at first that is what I thought was happening but with this particular ceramic is was jus a fuzz to big
It's good that it's only one that is that way, it surely almost fit, and it didn't take much to remedy
Very nice. I got my package today! The Penelope sleeve threads onto the drip mode terminator. However it is much taller than the penny base so it doesn't seat all the way. These are ending up in my stocking so I'll send build pictures after tomorrow.
I'm so stoked they made it today! Along with some 500 mesh for my genesis attys finally
Thank you Cloudburst and Stormy for a great shop.

So does that mean that you can't use the Penny sleeve in the Term base?
Not the SS penny sleeve at least. Not with out thread showing. My kir fanis sleeve goes onto it. I'll post comparisons tomorrow.
