So I noticed my Billow v2 AFC ring is really loose, and I don't think it was this loose when I first got it? Looks like the tiny bit of juice that has gotten into it has made it loose. Anyone else have this issue? Almost every time I go to hit my mod, I have accidently bumbed the AFC ring and turned it to closed. Kind of annoying but its still such a great tank its not that bad, but just curious if anyone else noticed this or has a fix! Thanks!
Haven't used my Billow in a long while, but I think that was the one you could flip the AFC ring over and it was a lot tighter... might give that a try.

Awesome! BTW I love your Avatar, my dad has an original Grateful Dead concert bill/poster from the Avalon Ballroom, 1966 I believe. Thing is awesome, we have it framed. It's not in the best condition, but I heard a mint condition first print of the same poster sold for $10,000 about 6 years ago :D I don't know if that is true or not but the first prints are very rare, I think they made 200 of them and only a handful of them are left in decent condition today. :D
Avalon Ballroom on Sutter in San Francisco. What a cool thing to have. My first show was 1976, I was a Sophomore in highschool. Fast forward 350+ shows later. My last show was Jerry's last show in Chicago. I was just in San Fran, went to The Haight and took pics by their original home there. My 3 kids all Dead Heads. Thanks for that story!

There is a tiny set screw inside the AFC ring you can tighten.

Take your top half off, pop the o-ring off so you take the air flow ring off, wipe the o-ring off and re-assemble, but first just check if you can tighten the tank down some more. It might not be putting enough tension on the ring. I know that on mine, the tank section slightly touches the ring when my inner deck sleeve is fully torqued. There is also a small screw that keeps your ring from spinning all the way round, you can back that out a tiny bit and that will also help somewhat...

So after a month of travels I seemed to ding my tank on something and it got a solid hairline crack, which made me discover the SS tank as well as the nano kit I had no idea were out! Guess when the atty works perfectly you just forget to look at the market until the need arises. Pretty excited to try this since I kinda wanted to try a nano style kit way back from R91% (clone) days and my Fogger movement kind of impeded that venture.

Also finally got around to getting a non-defective eLeaf 50W and loving this thing with my .7 30g dual setup - runs as cool or as hot as I like.

All in all glad I got on this bandwagon since I've been shopping for Aloha eJuice eciggity used to sell for a while and was super-stoked to see both Billow and V2 pop up from them of all the other places. Took me too long to get it given that Fogger 4.4 honestly did everything I needed from an atty for the longest time, but this screwless fill thing definitely made vaping fun again.

Put this Titanium build on. Ti01, 26g, 7/6, 2MMID, came in at .12 ohms. Vaping at 450F, 45 Joules. ScutterButch is absolutely shining.

After being extremely disappointed in the Aromamizer, I decided to toss a fresh build into both of my v2's. Home sweet home. I forgot how good of a tank the Billow V2 is. Soooo, I ordered 2 nano's.

The lack of flavor. Imo, the BV2 is better in that department. I put several builds in the Aromamizer. They ranged from 20g to 26g. I even tossed Clapton coils in it. I tried vertical and horizontal coils. I even swapped out the drip tip. Nothing seemed to give me the flavor I was expecting. That's just the conclusion of me and my wonky taste buds though.

That sucks. I have vaped so many tanks and the Aroma blows them all away on my flavor scale. Sorry no good for you...that's the beauty of gear...onto the next one in search of the perfect vape. I have had great flavor from the Billow as well.
