just super pics!
i take it those are 5 mil soft bottles, 3/16" tubing?
I'll have to see how that tube goes into the atty from a cut-off dripper tip ?
thanks
An hour and 50 minutes later, the bottle is almost empty and I am still getting a great feed from this set up.
Looking at my tube it sits with the angeled/pointed cut end towards the outside of the bottle and the shorter v cut towards the interior.
I am still getting great feed and hits. ( Click on photos to enlarge)

can someone tell me where the tube mod is...i'd like to check it out...:) thanks...

It's a simple mod of the dropper tip. Cut it off and trim it down so it fits into the upper opening of the VM. Drill out the top of the dropper tip to give a snug, no leak fit for the tubing. Run the tubing down into the bottle and cut off the excess at the top. Insert bottle....squeeze.....and vape!

Once the air is out of the tubing and feeding to the VM, suction on the drip tip helps keep juice moving to the atty; less having to squeeze. I like the 28-30 ga tubing better than 24; but that's just a personal preference.

Can someone Please recommend which are the best bottles for the VM and where to buy them.I have had my VM for almost a week but have yet to use it once...... Since none of my bottles fit the VM for some reason....The bottles that I'm looking for are the soft ones not the hard to press ones....Thanks in advance...PS i'm also looking for the smallest bottles available out there..Meaning 3 mil or 5 mil.... Or even smaller like a 1 mill if available....Thanks again....

I'm getting 400 in from TW in the next day or so and you can have a couple if they fit good:)

I use TW's 5ml soft dropper bottles. No leakage throughout two months of use on my VM. A downward flick of the wrist and a squeeze or two when the contents are low, and I'm good to go. The downward hand motion mimics what I used to do when I flicked ashes from my cigarette into my ashtray. No need for me to shear or alter this manufacturer's bottles.

TWs are the only bottles that I use, so I can't speak to the suitability of others. I did use a 10 ml hard plastic bottle once, and the top sheared off when I dropped the unit on the floor. Juice everywhere. Ugh. I purchased these 5 ml TW soft bottles approximately four months ago. I'm assuming, here, that TWs design hasn't changed since then. The VM unit I have came with an O-ring installed. I do still occasionally flood my atty (the Charmin Effect: over-exuberant squeezing) but no leaking from these bottles so far.

I love the versatility of this device and its ease of use. I use it on my SB, Ego, and David's SuperTs. I think the device is cool and sculptural. I would not hang a 30 ml bottle on it, though. I use my VM exclusively when I'm out-and-about. At home, I still occasionally drip. Old habits die hard.

Built-in bias Alert: For those of you that don't know, I'm David's mother.

Greetings to all of the old gang and the new!

This is easily the best vaping accessory I've ever owned! :w00t:
Ok, ok...yes, it's spendy, but you can actually feel the quality the first time you hold it in your hand - it was also lighter than I expected! :ohmy:
After 10-15 minutes of practice with a water filled bottle, I was ready to use it with actual juice - the learning curve with this is not a steep one at all - feeding becomes reflexive, and the sight glass helps a lot as well. :)
If you install a bottom feed tubing mod in the bottle, it will feed from an upright position with no problem at all, which comes in very handy when the juice is running low. :thumb:
In short, I can't recommend the VapeMate enough after actually trying it - I mean, sure, it looks all cool and Steampunkish and all that, but after actually using it, I can honestly say that this will become my primary juice delivery system - it's worth every penny, and then some - thanks, David! :thumbs:

I think Dave said he had a problem with TW bottles at first, (?) but he rectified it and is getting TW bottles...
I need a couple items from them and want to make an order that will include the bottles (5mil, 10 for 3.99)..
since that is the latest.. bottles from TW... can't have too many, ..or not.
