For some reason I can't even fathom this lol. Would you be willing to build me one? If so pm me a price. That is so so cool.

Edit: Oh no I guess you couldn't cause I'd have to keep making the lamp type fed cartos. Is it possible to do that with an atty? I can do any electronic mod but when it comes to atty/carto mods like this I'm just lost.

Hey CapeCodJim, this is a really intriguing setup to me. I want to try something like this for sure. I am having a little trouble visualizing everything though. Is there any chance we could get some serious close ups of the atty design, and how everything is hooked up inside the cap? I am not sure what type of atty you used to create this or carto.

How did you attach the filter material (wicks) to the atty tube/carto tube?
The material has enough draw on the fluid to keep the coil wet all the time, or is there suction draw going on here that I am not understanding?

This is really cool, though. Thank you for sharing your concept. I will enjoy first making your version and then mutating it as I am never happy with anything for too long, and creating something that probably won't work the first three times and then becomes something really frightening. :D

Hey Mark! Glad you like it and want to mutate it!! I don't want to take a working unit apart and it can be messy taking the wick out after it's been soaked. (I got juice all over my hands and prolly absorbed a bunch of nicotine when prototyping.... good thing it was only 18mg!) I went heavy on the wick material and the coffee filter retains a lot and is in there pretty good so it's hard to take it apart and get more pics w/o risk of damage but it's pretty straight forward to describe and I have some pics I didn't post... I'll take better one of the next build.....

After the wires were soldered and the metal air supply tube was back in place in the bottom of the ceramic cup, I positioned the coffee filter strips around the bottom of the cup and then used the wick string to tie it in place. I wraped it around and tied it loosely because I didn't want to cut off the wicking action. Then I put the little silicon cover over the ceramic cup and worked it into the carto tube. The wick set up made it snug on the bottom and the cover held the top in place. The silicon cover wouldn't stay straight the first couple attempts so I held it in place with a stick as I pushed in from the bottom.

I used a blank 901 cartomizer. I cut it off just above the battery connector so I could remove the bottom wire as long as possible and then I cut about an inch off the tube again so it wouldn't sit too high or low in the cap.

Test unit with the air hose attached and w/o the extra wick. The air hose would be untaped on the left side to expose the bottom of the cup. (btw: The hose in the pic is too short and was replaced).The coffee filter strips are placed on the ceramic, on top of the string wick part that feeds the coil through the little slits in the silicon cap. below the cup and above the air supply tube and then wrapped and tied with the rest of the wick string.

The material has enough draw on the fluid to keep the coil wet all the time, or is there suction draw going on here that I am not understanding?

There's no suction because the air supply comes from outside the bottle. No air comes from inside the bottle which is a major benefit because the bottle is a closed system. Suction would need venting and be prone to leaks and spills and would defeat some of the main features. If it seems like it's dry a little shake will wet the top of the wick. Tipping it will prime the atty. If everything's sealed it shouldn't leak even if upside down (in theory anyway!).

Filter wrapped and tied and inserted into carto tube. Wires are soldered and it's all ready to go in the cap.


This is really cool, though. Thank you for sharing your concept.

You're welcome! I'm glad you appreciate the design. The more I think about it the more I like the idea......

I'm happy with my Puck, Trekk and mini-pump mods..... but I have the modding bug and when inspiration hits you go with it! I'd love to see what you come up with....

I agree there's always a way to improve something or do it a better way and I don't scare easily!
:2cool: > :shock:

Merry Christmas!!

Thank you! I only have some 510 style e2 r4's, so I will try something with one of those. I have to figure out what I will use for an air hose as well. Have to hit the stores tomorrow I guess and come up with something that will have the right I.D. for the air tube of the carto. I guess the real tricky part is connecting the wick material so that it has a solid connection without restricting the flow at the same time. Should be a bit of a challenge for me. Thanks!

If there's a hobby shop around you can get some RC model fuel line and it should fit perfectly.

Ya, that's the trick exactly.... Bring the filter wick up as high as possible but you have to position it just right or fold it back to fit the silicon cap on... On one unit, I took the free end of the wick string and doubled it back over the coil before I put the filter wick on... not sure if it helped or will hurt in the long run but I was hoping to keep the coil wetter.... I used coffee filter for the wick but there may be something better for it like PTB.

Good luck! Take some pics along the way!

What is the mini-pump mod? the link is dead and I am curious. :) I am always on the lookout for an auto-juice feeder.

I fixed the sig link... Thanks! The mini-pump is "Perfect". I planned on a bottom feed but did this instead and it's worked flawlessly. Every puff is like it was just dripped and no leaks or spills. It's compact, plenty of juice, USB charge... everything I want in a PV. I could go VV but I'm happy at 3.7v with a LR atty.:vapor:

Okay, I made one. Although I used a much smaller tank for the first trial, and I have not decided how I want to permanently attach a power source yet, but I am thinking in-line with a 14500 somehow.

Sweet!!! Nice music with the vid and thanks for giving me credit..... This could easily be installed in a flashlight type / tube mod with the battery under the bottle......

Can't wait to see your mutations!
