I just finished a write up for the Aussies about this and as many tootle puffers still use carto tanks I will share
Back story
Quite a while ago I was determined to use aspire coils in cartomiser tanks. I had success with my DIY device but it was messy and make do and then aspire changed the wicking material to one I did not like. So I put it to the side and stopped tinkering with it.
I found a large supply of the old style aspire coils and had a reason to pick up the idea again. In the meantime a company started manufacturing a device that does the same thing. I purchased a couple and have been using them for the past week or so and decided to do a bit of a write up.
The device is called the VP Asp by Vape Prod
The idea is that the coil sit on top of a lip at the tube end and then is held in place by a small screw from the bottom. Internal tube pressure is managed by a SS bung that sits on the top of the coil opening.
Firstly let me say the device works well and it allows you to use aspire (non nautilus) BVC coils in standard tanks.
But......It has some failure points.
It is important you switch the O-ring on your coil for the supplied blue ring (or equivalent size) this o-ring helps seat the coil and stop it undoing itself from the threaded bottom screw. (Took me a few tanks dumps to get this)
In all the tanks I tried to use this in, I discovered you need to drop the device low enough that the holes in the tube are lower than the tank inner o-ring. Otherwise the air pressure will flood your coil. Top fill tanks like the SnP, bayou, X6 etc still require the dropping of the device before you open the little screws or covers so you may as well just fill through a car to filling tool. This device will not work easily in tanks like my elegance.
The Vape Prod device relies on airflow from the 510 connector. This is no different to regular cartomisers so tank users will be used to this. You must have tank or mod connector air channels lined up with the tiny holes above the threads in the Vape Prod device or use an airflow controller like the smoktech one. This airflow is less than these coils would normally work with so you will need to adjust your wattage to find an optimum vape.
The device itself is a reasonable price but shipping is expensive.
The device is only available in regular size (35mm)
Now to the tinkering part.
I am always looking for ways to make everything work with everything else. I have a lot of taller tanks that take XL cartomisers (45mm). Avid Vapers sell a carto extension that I have used in other things. For this particular project I needed to change the o-ring to a very snug fit. (It ain't going anywhere). To make sure it doesn't come apart when filling I use a loose filling tool to keep it all together.
Happy to say after a couple of days this adapted device and the coils are performing well.

I have been thinking it was Tuesday all day.
How did I lose a whole day?
Getting old is confusing.

If you thought it was NEXT Tuesday, you just gained 6 days!

MARVELOUS write up, XX. Blog it, please, so it's handy? WELL DONE, Madame!!!!!
thumbs, Ms. D. SO glad you did not forget it's Cowboy nite, ummm.... Camel day.
What does blog it mean...... No need to answer. I found a whole nuther section of ecf. Be back in a couple of hours
Also I was going to chat with GT because in the reverse of how you get aspire coils to work with the egrip I think the ego one coils can work with this as well. If that is the case then you could potentially use ego one coils in the billet boxes. (Maybe)

Krisma, I think Kat is suggesting you put your write up on your blog here at ECF.
I just received my order of Unicorn Vomit this week. Definitely "rainbow spew" - but pretty well done and with some distinctive flavor!
I was in the middle of watching Criminal Minds when it suddenly occurred to me that that's a Wed. night show! Oh, wednesday! Gotta go post the camel!

Man, this sucks, I dreamt about vape mail, that I haven't even ordered yet...
There's a cure for that, Bel...
Send me you card, and I'll be sure to have some on your way, too!
Or perhaps it's just a message from your sub-conscious that you REALLY NEED what you dreamt

Thats one of the side effects of shinyitis. The more you resist the more vivid the dreams become
Hello all, first time posting in this thread, though to be honest I think I fall somewhere between Tootle Puffer and Mod Whomper so I'm a little confused on where I belong at the moment.
Anyway I saw this post and couldn't help but laugh, because just a couple days ago I ran across a Phil Busardo review of some crab flavored juice, and he was vaping from a crab shaped mod. Not quite the same as a lobster but close enough.
In case anyone is curious, he did NOT like the juice.
So, another happy tootle womper
Yep, all sorts of .... flavors .... bacon is right up there with crab

Think I've still got a little bottle of that crab juice laying around here somewhere.
It's about 3 years old, so it's had plenty of time to steep.

Welcome to Tootle-land @kad2371 - lots of discussion of blister packs and cartos here, but a pretty friendly lot
They must not be too bad - they let me hang here - Status
