First thoughts would be that the tubing he's supplying as extra is not the same as fitted in the Maximus.
Perhaps he sourced it from somewhere else?
Unless he says we will not know.
And second thoughts - the silica tube may have something else on it. Try burning off with a lighter before using it ? If it seems quite stiff it may have a resin coating on it.
I do this with some of the carto tubes.

I'll send Callum a PM to ask him about the wick tubing in the meantime . . .

Not what I expected, held it under a cooks blowtorch for 30 seconds, pulled it off the metal spike i was using and it crumbled in my fingers like chalk. Sounds like Ill be chasing another refund this week

Look forward to it Skwoddy . . . and nice to know your mesh wasn't at fault.
What a shame though with the tubing, although maybe the lot that Callum was selling seperately, could be different again?

I just wanted to say, although this topic has gone OT a little bit, my maximus is really pulling it's weight here. The flavour has really come on and it hits the spot almost every time. I didn't want to start another thread, but I really am loving this thing.

Thanks for replying Callum, I'm gonna hold off til some of the more seasoned coilers have used the tubes and give any pointers. Can you confirm wether original batch customers will be contacted about the replacement tank? or will they need to contact you directly?
Many Thanks
