I'd be interested if others who have already received the VV Grand has had this issue or if it was just unique to Clyde:confused:

As Jack Robbins, my first sponsor mentor from years ago used to say: "A smart man learns from his own mistakes, a wise man from the mistakes of others. And then again, some of us just have to go and piss on the electric fence."

Remember my old O-Ring trick :) it simply works, put an oring over your Atty and push it down to the top of the catch cup = No leaky ever :) can also adjust your draw with this little trick too. Tighter you set it to the catch cup stiffer the draw. I still use this simply because I always take a Reo with me in my Car, and I can set it on the passenger side seat and I just push the O-Ring down to the catch cup and I know nothing will leak. :)

Well, sunuva...I believe I will do that first thing tomorrow, after I get my VVG back! Brilliant idea!

I didn't know this, thank you!

Got the VVG with a replaced button (you rock, Rob!) and while hurrying out the door to get the post office before it opened (counter guys at Bethany, OK USPS station rock, too) I grabbed a couple of 5v 510 attys. (I mean, what else am I going to do with them?)

I noticed a cinnamon taste after a few puffs, and discovered I had put a used atty on it. I later discovered that the atty I had previously bonutted.

Didn't think this would work on a bottom feeder, but it ain't bad at all. The extra bonut wick holds on to juice pretty well, which means less squonking and so far, no leaking.

Also put a drip shield and an extra long drip tip on it.....don't know if that will make a difference or not, but at least I feel better with it!

I think the VVG, like most VV mods, gets the most use and versatility out of SR attys....HV attys work in it, but limits you to the upper end of the spectrum. Then again, it's nice to have such versatility in the mod...and the opportunity to efficiently use some attys that have been collecting dust for a few months.

I'd be interested if others who have already received the VV Grand has had this issue or if it was just unique to Clyde:confused:

I haven't had e-liquid slosh out of my reservoir at all on my VV Grand. I'm too busy chain vaping this sucker so it doesn't get the chance to accumulate.

Thats good to hear...thanks. I only posed the question to hear from you, Lisa and another lucky enough to have used one to comment. :) We look to Clyde and all beta users for any and all bits of info we can get. ;)

I thought this post should be brought over from the last thread. A quote from Robert:

I will list 300 on the first sale night . Two weeks later I will list another 200 . I have 500 ready and waiting for the vv units . I have another 550 going to the tumblers tomorrow . There will be no shortage of vv grands ounce I start assembling them .

We are still waiting for Robert to announce that the VV Chips arrived. Then he can start assembly of the VV Grands.

No. No problem for me.
During the squonk I never had a drop of liquid out of the cup.
I think that this type of problem depends very much on the individual technique of squonk. I never had flows of liquid even on the Grand Classic (which has the cup slightly shorter), then with the Grand VV I do not run any risk, fortunately.:laugh:
