Vape for a reclining (in bed) person?

Not open for further replies.
I have a particular application that needs the atomizer / vape system to work while reclining. Thus the cig would be held pointing to the sky (somewhat). Seems like a BCC would become dry. Seems like a top coil would become flooded. Needs at least a small tank as it cannot be filled often. Any method for putting long wicks on a BCC? Suggestions?
 
The particular problem is that the supply has to be large (i.e. a tank) and it can't be moved (i.e. tipped back and forth), has to rely on the wick doing its job. A backward bottom tank sounds like the right thing, i.e. the coil stays below the fluid but the vapor taken out of the bottom (with some clever mod for the battery connection.) Don't know if that will work. Any other ideas?

Well, the Kanger BCC coils can be rebuilt... Normally the wick gets cut off flush at the base, but I guess you could experiment with not cutting it and leaving it in the tank, in essence turning it into a top coil system. As long as you use a good wick and it doesn't get chain vaped, to avoid the wick getting dry, I don't see why that wouldn't work.

Aren't there some hookas that can be used for this purpose? I'm sure I saw some somewhere that would probably do the job as they have long hose that can be used and the base sits on a table.

I have no idea of the quality of these nor have I ever tried one, but there seems to be some out there, you can check this and see if that may help with your needs.

I have seen goose neck atomizer tips but can't recall exactly where, a web search should ping it for you. THer item looks rather like they took one of those flexible neck long fireplace disposable lighter heads and modded it. While it may not be pretty that should make the user able to hold the mod in a proper position and still reach the mouthpiece comfortably.

When watching TV in bed I also use a knuckle head drip tip
