The New Ce2+ Supreme Fluxomizers are now In Stock!!! 510 & 808 both sizes and ohms, Easy fill system included

[antfuzz]

OK, what just happened? I got my new fluxos (well, my first fluxos but the new version) and it was vaping great but a little tight on the draw. So I pulled the plug out to reseat it and see if that made a difference and the whole center stem came up. Or at least the ceramic cup, I guess I can't say for sure that the stem moved. I was able to put it back together and it is still working. It did get a little gurgly when it wasn't before at all, but that seems to have worked itself out. I just want to know what to expect the next time I have to take one of these apart.

I had the very same thing happen. My suggestion would be do not try and pull that center plug out by the little nipple. Instead use a bent paperclip and pull it up through the fill holes, pull up a little at a time from each side.

In order to prevent any juice from getting down the center tube you'll need to heat up the black shrink wrap below the ceramic cup. Remove the tube and moved the wires away from the center post. You can then use a lighter and heat the shrink wrap so it shrinks tightly around the center post. It doesn't take much heat, maybe a second or two but no more. You want to make sure to not heat the wiring. Once cooled pull on the ceramic cup gently to see if it still moves.

i removed the rubber seal (with the wick slots cuts in it) and i have the tube filled 3/4 full. i am using a drip tip that fits the ce2. im keeping it upright and vaping away but after 2 or 3 puffs the coil is dry. without the seal, nothing is constricting the juice flow to the wicks. what am i doing wrong? yes i "fluffed" the wicks. (using 65pg/35vg juice.)

Liquid has a hard time fighting gravity and will not go up very easily. So you do need to tilt it so some of the liquid will get close to the ceramic cup and coil. I don't recommend not using some sort of seal over the ceramic cup. If you have an old CE 2 that has the middle Black seal I would recommend using that. If not I would recommend putting on the seal but not pushing it down all the way or trimming the wick slits on the side a tiny bit.

I'm willing to bet your gurgling because your nipple plug/drip tip apparatus is too tight and pushing down on things. Get rid of 'em, or mod the silicon plug so it only does what its intended to do, e.g., cover the center hole for you.

i was down to 1 boge carto when i got these today. i know i cut it close but.....i was super super happy to get these this morning. filled one out of the box with bounty hunter (65pg/35vg) and it vaped real good the first 2 minutes...then i got dry hits after dry hits. i made sure the wicks werent pinched and the cup seal inserted correctly.

i had fairly high hopes for these but...i guess they arent for me. i took couple dry puffs without activating the battery and that way i was able to get the juice to the coils...only to flood it after doing so few times. i hate fiddling with cartos, i hate gurgling and i very much dislike drying off the battery post every 30 minutes.

ill have to fight through this until monday-tuesday-wednesday-ish until i get my phoenix/ce8/vivi nova order. bummer!

post a pic of your fluffed wicks and I'll try to help?

also, what voltage are you hitting these at?

I got these in today and I think they are great. I haven't modded mine since the original fluxomizers. I just fill and go. I never take the plugs out or dry burn unless I'm cleaning them and I never need to fluff the wix. I always prime a new or cleaned flux. What I found is that they all have that kind of burn plastic taste when they are new. I seems that after you use them a while that goes away. That to me is when they become seasoned. Untill the get seasoned If I get a burnt tast, I put it further in my mouth and slightly bite the plastic tube just a little, with it upside down. Or you can just hold it upside down and squeese it with you fingers slightly. When you release it you will see some small bubbles coming from the ceramic wick area. What that does is it primes the wick insid the coil and will get rid of that burnt flavor. If you do this too much, it will flood. But, this has always worked for me and I've always just thought of it as normal. The older the fluxomizer gets the less you have to do this. With the juce I use, I can use the same fluxomizer for about three months, everyday, without cleaning. These thing rock.

Got my supremes, tried a standard juice I have from madvapes. Dry at first, popped the cap, fluffed the wicks, trimmed the wick gaps. Works fine. I like the deluxe better actually. Easier to trim the inner cap on them. I'll get used to these but, I have real high hopes for the phoenix. I'm about to replace the inner cap on this with a black one from a deluxe... It seems to vape a little better than the deluxe after you trim the cap and fluff. I don't understand why they didn't make the wick gap bigger than on the deluxe... That was really the only problem with the deluxe that I had. Also, dripping down the side to fill didn't work, had to grab a syringe.

 

[badkolo]

you can try to push the middle of the wick area down a tad to push it away from the seal.

i was able to drip along the side just like with the older ce2's.

You don't quite get the point of these... You're supposed to be able to drip down the side without removing the inner cap. The clear silicone piece that sits directly on the ceramic cup. That's what the spaces on the side are for. That cap is supposed to remain in place when filling. I can't even get a single drop of 50/50 vg/pg down there without a syringe. The deluxe and previous had solid inner caps, literally no possible way you can drip down the sides without removing it.

I don't mind trimming the seals. They do seem to vape better. I was hoping to give these to a friend who doesn't like the syringe or even the luer lock bottles. Meh, he'll have to deal with it. He's happy enough with no analogs, just needs to hide the needles from the kids. I aked what the problem was because he has to hide all his vape supplies from his kids... He just doesn't like the needles. Says it's "too druggy" I guess I can give him a needle point plastic bottle, one with a tapered plastic tip, instead of the metal applicator needle.

Hey bad, have the material or source of the fluxo wicks changed?

Normally when I take a flame to them, if there is trace juice still in the wick it'll turn brown for a moment, and then go pristine white

I took a flame to one tonight, and it got brown, and then I ended up with black streaks all over the place even after getting it glowing red for a while. Another ECF member buddy randomly reported the same thing to me, and I thought it was a strange thing to be a coincidence. Not a deal breaker as the wicks work fine, and flaming them isn't necessary at all, but it kind of tweaked me out...

what are you using to burn them, you must use a butane torch lighter, and if the butane is ronson or a cheapo then its not pure and could cause the black streaks.

 

[badkolo]

im going to try to get someting next week which ill include with every pack
its a tiny 2 ml with plastic nozzle, this way people can suck up juice and squeeze it right into the ce2 without a syringe.

you can even cause the black streak just by using a regular lighter.

I have a squeeze bottle with a plastic tip I'm going to give him with the pack of carts I got him. Just called him, he likes that better than the syringes and metal LL tips.

I might have come up with something that works Better than Dry Burning.

It's late and I'm tired but I do a write up on it tomorrow.

 

[Cyrus Vap]

yes I've noted this with the lighter which is why I never use it for anything if I can help it

this is all with the good old butane torch. no biggie either way. just curious if there had been a change or anyone else had noticed this.

zoidman i'll be checking this thread tomorrow for your discovery
