V4L is expensive? I was looking at IBTanked and nearly changed my mind on the whole thing. But I was thinking a V4L tank, punch and some S.I. blanks. Do you know if 50 mm cartos would work in the tank, or do I need to stick to the standard ones?

I think the specs of the tank cartos used to be on the V4L site, i'll take a peek for you

Last I remember, you were also blessed to still have some of the original, unprotected batteries kicking around. You can get the 808 to 510 or 808 to ego adapters and use them on those batteries. As a bonus, maybe they'll work on the sealed batteries too.

Hi Charlz. Yes I am blessed to have about 6 non-stealth Echos in my inventory that are still in their original wrappers. I wil get an adapter or two from MadVapes and see how the Vivi Nova tanks go with the new/old Echos. I have never had as much as a small drop of juice from those tanks or clearos unless you count the 2 times I unscrewed the bottom of the tank with an abundance of juice in it instead of making sure I was only removing the top of it to refill. What a mess that was!!

Well I ordered some 350mah Echo (well I hope they are Hangsen anyway) mini autos from Tha Vapor Girl. I'll be the guiny pig on these. Figure them to be the ultimate stealth KR808D1's as they should be shorter than my old Smoketip auto cigs with an Echomizer on 'em. After a few years or the 650's hanging from my teath, these may just float away.

So I guess I might be ready to do some modding. Broke one of my cartos today. I pushed the filler down a little too far and pushed the atomizer straight out the bottom, so I went ahead and disassembled it. I kept the cone body and the bottom portion with the threads. I threw the rest in the trash since I was at work and had no place to store the air tube and cotton.

So what can I do with these parts? I'm still working my way through the first Echo thread.

Just got my "The Vapor Girl" mini Echos. They are not as short as I thought they would be for only 350mah. They are 57mm/2.25" long. A 650 mah is 65mm/2.5" long. Only a quarter inch difference, and 300mah less. They are sealed, stealth, and have a nice rubber coating. They have a ten second cut off.

I got four, and one the light comes on, and stays on when a Echomizer is connected. I'll mess with the post latter to see if this fixes it. The rest vape great as any Echo.

They came fully charged, and "The Vapor Girl" threw in 4 free chargers. She also wrote a realy nice letter of appreciation.

If the one that doest fire right doesn't work, I am not upset, as I basically was given 2 full kits for the price of 4 bats. And I'm an pretty sure messing with the post will fix it.

I'll keep this updated.

Johnnie. Keep the parts, because as you rebuild other Echomizers in the future.

The cones sometimes stress crack up the sides after being taken off and on to many times. You cant see it on regular inspection but juice will slowly leak out where its cracked. The filler can get burned if the coil is off center, or you run dry, and its nice to have extra. Its nice to have the atomizer in case a different one burns out, you can replace it.
