Just have a second. The truck is packed and all we have to do is throw in a few more things and close up the trailer and hit the road.

Glad everybody is kissing and making up cuz I love all of you!

Gummy Bear, happy that your home and back on here with us!

SC, your mod is beautiful!!! I can see why your proud of it. Very handsome.

We're going to be on the road probably for three days as we'll be stopping along the way to see things and ensure plenty of rest for Mrs. TT. I'll let you know we made it home just as soon as I can though.

Talk to you soon!

TT and Mrs.TT

Thanks LD! I do have some 2.0 ohm cartos on the way! But my 1.5s are working fine I dial it back a bit! :) I may try to get some 2.5s or 3.0s also just to compare..Which do you find that you like the most??

SC

The only SS DCs that I have are 1.5ohm. As for my Fluxos, I have them all at or above 2.8ohm. The ones I used the most are 3.5ohm. The Infinity Pro can handle just about everything I throw at it. The original Infinity, well, it doesn't like LR stuff that much. Not even worth using them on it. Which is okay, because I don't have al that much LR stuff. Gives me a burnt taste at higher voltage.

I mostly use the Fluxo CE2s. I am among the few that can get them to work like a tank. I have a couple of tanks, and when they work, they work well. I am tank challenged though. They all start to leak on me after a few days, even when bottom filling. Although, in a tank, I prefer the Fusion over DCs. I think I am alone in that, but everything is a preference, and that is just mine.

I'm still leaning toward the Buzz Pro ... I guess mainly because I've enjoyed my old Buzz so much. The new circuitry is supposed to give longer battery life and that should be a plus.

I guess I'm going through the agony SC went through trying to decide.

Sc, if you would send me your new iPro and let me use it for a couple weeks ... it would be easier for me to make a decision. Please send three dollars with it for the return postage. Oh, and a couple extra batteries too.

Thanks!!

TT :blink:

Go with the Buzz Pro T. Sale is right, you already have the batteries. Inside, the Buzz Pro and Infinity Pro are the same. So, they will work the same. But, if you love something already, like your Buzz, there is no need to change things up.

Edited! REason: I am sad and may never post again in TTs house because of this.

Ditto Sd :cry:

Edit- But don't let 1 person ruin all of the fun that you have all had at TTs House. There is always 1 in every crowd that will ruin it for the rest if you let them.

I really just don't understand all of the people complaining about leaking tanks. I have never had a leak and have had the same O rings for over a year and a half.

Gummy, the tank itself isn't what actually leaks. At least for me, anyway. But, because the filler in the carto stays so saturated, the juice starts leaking out the battery end of the carto. I'm not sure if that is the same issue LD was talking about, but I know that has happened to me and some others. I've heard that this is mainly a problem with DC cartos. Since DCs are the only cartos I own, I can't compare them to others. I do seem to remember LD posting that his actual tank was leaking around the o-rings, though, so I may be wrong.

Oh, That's flooding. yea that can happen. I just sling the extra out the top through the drip tip. I have had CE2s start doing that for 2 days then stop. I have wondered if it has something to do with barometric pressure.

I had it happen to me just as I was having to leave for work yesterday! I quickly filled a carto and left the tank at home. So, you think the carto may still be salvageable and stop flooding?? I tried blowing it out the battery end, but it kept flooding. If it were not for flooding, the tank would be the perfect set-up for me! But when juice starts running out the battery end and into my PV, I get "discouraged" (translate, really angry) and wonder if tanks are worth the hassle.

The tank that was leaking around the o-ring is not on the Fusion. It is working better there, since it's an 808(901?) style. The 808 has a base, that the o-ring can sit on. For some reason, that seals it pretty well. It did leak on me, but it has stopped. For some reason, when the filler gets saturated, the juice just flows out. I left the juice in it, put it on its side, so the hole is above the juice, and let it dry. It has been working fine. The issue is, I had 3 good fills before this started.

Now, as for my DC carto tank, that one isn't leaking with the current juice (Cap Smooth) and it still going well. I just don't really like the low resistance. When these start leaking, there is nothing you can do. It has to be a pressure thing with them. Once they blow, you just need a new carto.

Anyway, I like my CE2s, just a bit, better. I just hate having to fill them so often. I am up to about 5ML a day, and fill them every about .7ML, to top off. It's a bit trying on my patience.

I am thinking about trying a j-tank. I hear that they are pretty good. It will be nice to try a different style, and see if I like it any better. There are also some other styles, that I would like to pick up and see how I like them. I do like using a tank, but I hate the wasted juice when they leak. Plus, I can't be doing my Infinity Pro any justice, with all the juice it gets on it. :)

Wow, TG. Nicely said! :)

It is not uncommon to have some flooding right after a fill. I just slam the juice in as fast as I can and sling it out till it stops. I see it as part of filling. on big deal. What I hate is when the CE2s go all gurgly. It's like sucking on a water pipe. It is the fault of the cart not the tank. Just remember who sells the Gummy approved ones.

I try to fill mine slowly (I insert a needle between the top grommet and tank and fill upside down), and when I am done with the fill I withdraw air before I remove the needle. I feel like withdrawing the air prevents too much inward pressure on the carto. Usually it works well, but sometimes the cartos flood no matter what I do! And it could be the fact that they are DCs and the filler is different from the other cartos people use. IDK. This last carto that flooded (yesterday) I had probably filled 8-10 times with no problems. But when I was in a hurry and rushing out the door for work, it decided to "act up".

They don't always flood after fill. Sometimes, it is while using them during the day. Other times, filling. And, ALL of the juice leaks out. Not just a little that you can "sling out". I have had this happen with both Fusions and SS DCs.

I am glad they work for you Gummy. It's about what works for you. I have never had a CE2 gurgle, and have used over 20 of them, by now. They have always just worked great. Tanks, not so much. So, I mostly use my Fluxo CE2s. Other people love the Fluxos also. Then, there are others that think Tanks are the way to go, and have no issues. As long as we keep vaping, that is all that matters.

Yes LD, What works for you. I have had issues with the last batch of Fluxos in a totaly new way. I am a die hard fan of them. I have been on the fore front of every problem they have had. Primer fluid taste, bad wicking burnt taste, leaking when they went to the plastic tube, and now they just go dead some after only 2 days. I was getting a month on them with the last batch before they would just start tasting bad. now if they don't die in a day or two they loose all flavor in a week. I have found the ohms changing when this happens. I put a new one on and it reads something like 2.9 ohms then in one day it just kinda goes flat on taste and then the ohms are like 4,5 ohms. then it dies. I wish they would get the bugs out of them because when you get a good one nothing beats it.
