Hi folks,

Do any of you have tips for wicking Cthulhu RBA? Recently got one, and has been leaking thru the airflow a lot. Tried wicking it many times but still the same thing. Also tried various coil widths (2mm, 2.5mm etc). Juice channel to wide perhaps? Tried wicking it like my Billow, with a "stopper" over the juice hole, but nothing is working.

A lil help please?

Dude, build with a 2mm jig/drill bit and cut about 2.5mm strip of cotton. Thread it through and wet the cotton with juice and make sure you cover all juice flow. Please note that some tanks can have the wicking just above the juice flow and some would require cotton to be sitting in the juice flow.

Experiment with both setup because I had to do the same thing with my Smok TFV4. All the best, keep us updated on the situation

how big diameter coil? Try using 1.5mm(or screw driver that is included with), and the cotton cut about 2.5 mm. then cut the cotton just enough so that the end sits just inside the bottom of the juice well. before juicing, try closing the airflow to lowest, and then after done just try some dry pulls(without firing). If all is okay, no juice should spit.

Btw, what juice are we talking about here? High VG?

Wow, that thin for the wicking? I closed the airflow before filling it, but it started to leak when i opened it. Have tried both 2mm and 2.5mm coil widths, but still leaks. Standard 50/50 juice here.

Do you guys have a "stopper" or a wick that plugs over the juice hole? or do you wick it like a tube directly into the juice channel?

Tried packing the wicking from the top with a coiler rod. It holds for a while, then leaks... fffuuuuuuuuu

So i finally managed to solve dat pain in the arse cthulhu wicking with some help. Needs cone style wicking, ala zephyrus, cutting the wicking at an angle instead of straight. this creates a more pronounced "bulb" or stopper at the top to prevent juice from leaking in. for some reason, it still leaks when i top fill it :|

other than that, great flavor, tho my billow is still is the reigning champ in my arsenal lol

Morning vapers! some suggest mech mod and dripper to chase clouds. I think my derringer is as good a dripper as any other, So:

1) What would be a good mech mod to get?
2) I have heard hybrid mech mods. What are those?
3) Whats the difference between spring and magnetic button?
4) How do I determine whether the battery (Sony VTC5) is capable to supply for the build I made?
5) Would answering all the above solve the mysteries of the universe?

1) If you want hard hitting, go copper mods yo. SMPL, cherry bomber copper, and fuhattan are pretty good mods.
2) Hybrid tops that allow the 510 pin to directly contact the positive battery terminal. I hear you gotta use button top batteries for safety. if not seated properly, the spacing can cause a hard short. blink.gif
3) Different feel and throw. If set up properly, it has negligible impact on performance, though springs can be prone to hot buttoning more so than magnets
4) Google up the VTC5 datasheet, and check it against your build and/or steamengine calculator
5) One can always hope.

all else fails, get a hammer of god mech lol
