Some of you may have seen my write up on the smoktech revive cartos for the TP's While I was playing with them I decided to shorten them from their original 45mm carto to a 35mm length. This meant the top threads were removed allowing me to use my own drip tips. They have been working very well in regular tanks so I put one in a boro tank and have been vaping them in a billet box.

The drilled holes are quite rough so I would take care with insertion to minimise o-ring damage
View attachment 517798

Now some points about how they work: firstly these cartos work at their best with lung hits, lots of air and a wider bore drip tip. Because of the flange the tank sits quite high in the BB allowing generous airflow so that works beautifully. They are dual coil so the vapour is warm and very full. They last for ages, hubby has just changed one after almost 10 weeks of vaping about 3mls a day through it. Very impressive.

I almost forgot. I was a bit concerned at flooding them when opening the boro and refilling but they have behaved just like any other carto. All is sweet, no flooding or gurgling.

As a MTL vaper I have been playing with vaping it but to be honest it's just a bit too full on (even with a small bore driptip) so it won't become a full time carto for me (hubby loves and is using in my BB) but as an alternative.....lot of folks will enjoy it.

I found them for $1.49 at vapingmall and their service and delivery to me has been excellent.

MARVELOUS post, XX - THANK YOU!

Informative & intelligent. How did you get in here anyway? ;)

That happened to me on my first one, I don't remember how long it was, but it was hard. :(

Darn it, Kat ... I'm a brick layer, not a doctor! :D

Hey! that is my line! oh wait I think I think it was the other way around. :)

It is 3:00 Am right now just got back from my Xmas celebration, which was very good. I hope you get you bats soon, and that everyone had a good Christmas also. :)

Well - Boxers & Boxettes . . . Yesterday turned out to be fairy normal day here in Florida (Well what is accepted as normal for Florida) - still over 80* with well over 6 feet of Sunshine (as a really good ECF friend would say), along with a gentle breeze of wind . . . SO - Very pleasant weather to say the least . . .

AND - After a couple of days before of just running around trying to send off a special package to someone (which didn't happen yet) and also making "Lasagna w/ Homemade Gravy" for "My" Best Friends as their Christmas gift, it was a relief to just not have to really do anything, but enjoy a relaxing day . . .

One of the nicest parts of the day actually started about a week before when - "My" Christmas presents arrived . . .

Boy was I surprised, especially since I got exactly what I wanted as Christmas Presents this year . . .

NICE ! ! !

(BTW: Since I bought them all for "Myself" just to make sure I did . . . :facepalm: )


Then if that wasn't enough, after I got through the hectic holiday traffic, I went to "MY" Best Friends Home for a very special dinner this year - NYC Style "Jewish Christmas" Day & Dinner . . .

BTW: For those that don't know, that is having Chinese Food for Dinner

(either in the restaurant or delivered) and then going to the movies

. . . Or - Doing something that is equally as FUN . . . No Cooking, No Clean-up really if Ya' use paper plates/bowls & chop sticks, and definitely takes away all the hassle and being drained of energy . . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

So all in all - A really enjoyable, fun, and nice relaxing day . . .

And - On that note, I really hope everyone else had a FUN and interesting 24 hours, celebrating the Holiday as they wanted to or at least made the day as enjoyable as they could . . . Just Sayin' . . .

Okay - Guess it is back to reality today, gotta get that DAMN package repacked once again (Hopefully, the 3rd time's the charm - as they say :facepalm: ), so I can finally ship it off at a more reasonable cost on Monday . . . Wish "Me" Luck Guys . . .

Hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas with your families and friends. It has been a rough past couple of years for us with not being able to work and waiting on disability to be approved. Each year gets smaller for the kids but just seeing them smile when they open a gift makes you all warm and fuzzy inside. Having dinner spending time together is all that matters. Love at it's finest. Take Care All

I'm sorry to hear it's rough for you, bush, and I hope that changes very soon. For whatever it's worth though -

Having gone through a 4-5 period of similar fashion, I can honestly say that those ended up being the most unforgettable ones of my life. Ironically, even the four kids agree (now, not then). It's interesting what we learn as we traverse this idea called life.

I hope and pray that you end up feeling the same way I do, some day down the line. Our thoughts are with you.

Received the AW 16340 Red batteries this evening and my NLV order! :w00t: Put the batteries in the charger - took less than 30 minutes to fully charge. Filled the tank with StraBerry Beach and .... WOW! I must say that I am incredibly pleased with this device. I am shocked that I just learned about the Billet Box less than a month ago. A Big SHOUT OUT to @DPLongo22 and @Katdarling for providing me information about the Billet Box and THIS thread! :thumbs:
Thanks to everyone in the thread for your previous (I'm still only about 80 pages in and continuing to read) and current comments. :nun:
