I am using a ce2r4 carto , I always pull all of the silicon out of mine so to fill I just pull off my drip tip and pour it down the throat of the Ce2 and it is fine .
The other option is to fill it like a liquin***** , and move the whole thing up to fill it , or use a syringe OR use a bottle with a small tip from the screw hole

4 ways so far to fill it !

The 6-32 size screw should make it easier to use the screw .

Cat you could replace the thumb screw with a regular 6-32 machine screw , this will be MUCH lower and less likely to snag BUT still keep the whole tank LOCKED in place .

I hear a bunch of people saying that the screw has the potential of being snagged and pulled out, but for those of you that actually got one has it? Do you think it will.

I haven't had the experience, and I sersiouly think the chances are quite small that it would snag. I am always looking for improvements in design. I'm a network engineer by trade so I am always in pursuit of the 'perfect'. But as they say, perfect is the enemy of good ;)

I would like it without the screw because I don't mind filling my "other tanks" at all. Will they be offered both ways?

Most likely not BUT we can do them with a small screw that sticks out a very small amount .

Remember this screw LOCKS the whole unit to the carto so it does NOT MOVE !

Hey, I'm totally willing to give this try, very excited. My "other tanks" seem to have corrected the carto so they don't move. Like I said, I really like you guys, and I'll try your stuff out :)

That's what I do as well. The silicone plugs/caps that are in there are pointless IMO.

...but the whole point for most tank mods, is just the easy access of refilling them up.... going back to have to using a syringe type, just seems backwards.

You've got it exactly, Sacker.

Ruppy has a point about locking the carto in place being the primary benefit, but with a Fushion, I don't really have that problem; the tank can't slide downwards, and as long as I don't pick the thing up by grabbing it tank first, it generally won't slide upwards.

When mine is sitting on a table it is tight enough to pick up by the tank without issue. I made that mistake though the other day when it was in my pocket... not my best moment! And yes, the tank had just been filled to the top.

yea I guess if your putting it in your pants, and pulling up on the tank first, I can see how the screw comes in handy in keeping the tension against the carto shell...
