I shall be distraught when the wicky needs replacing in this, distraught.

But now that you know what they can be like and how well they vape it may give you the drive to want to get it back and push you to making your own.

When I first had my DID off of Luner, I was cheeky and asked him if he could send it to me with a premade mesh wick and coil set up in it, bless him, he did just that and when it arrived I was able to go straight ahead and vape, I felt pretty much like you guys with the maximus, wonderful vape, over the moon with it, one day I carefully removed Luners set up and gently put it aside whilst I made my own, never looked back

Perps.... It is easy, after a while you will be doing it with your eyes closed! Well maybe not actually "with your eyes closed", but wthout any trepidation.

Has anyone (will someone please) done a video on recoiling the SS Maximus?

Found a couple of reviews from Glen & Todd, haven't watched them yet though, to see if rebuilding is covered . . . .

i have to admit i cant put the bloody thing down so maybe i am just vaping more, its so good even tho ive already lost the filler hole screw and had to replace it with a cut off piece of cocktail stick

See, I knew it should have had a spare filler screw

Funnily enough, I reckon I've use more battery power than normal today, but that may be down to me having a cold and using far longer drags than normal, just to try and get some taste.

I emailed Callum about what his plan was in case some tubes failed, what with the stress cracks and such and if he had plans to have spare tubes, but I haven't heard back from him yet.

i dont think changing the tube will be easy but i mite be wrong

[andym]

LOL i also lost the filler screw!Would leaving the hole open make it have less Flavour?I'm getting tons of vapour,but the Fish isnt tasting as good as it does from the Vivi Nova.I must say that its only on its first filling.i havent noticed any stress cracks,but i did get a spare tank body.

Use a cocktail stick/matchstick as a bung instead Andy.

Callum just seems to not return emails! Ordered some wick tube and asked for all the free tubes to be put in with it and it wasn't done. That's the 3rd email I've sent which hasn't been replied to now.

[Perpetua]

He's online now Womble, at his site . . . maybe contact him via the chat facility on there.

[womble]

I've already sent him an email perps, don't want to muddy the waters.

LOL, i sent him 2 recently and never got a reply either.

I have just noticed a load of stress cracks on the top of the tank.I have a theory about this.I think its caused by the top metal part getting heated up by the coil and expanding due to the heat,and thats causing the cracks.I was suprised at just how hot it did actually get.Still,its not leaking so i will continue.

I've exchanged several e-mails with Callum in the last few days, so I'm surprised you haven't heard from him. My tube had a lot of stress marks on it. I did get a spare tube with it, but changing would I think be challenging
He tells me he is going to try to do a video on replacing the tube, so I look forward to seeing that!

Apart from that, my first impressions of it are pretty good. Not quite the same as with just a mesh wick, but it will be interesting to see how it goes when it has properly bedded in.
