Orchid V4 o rings

[dalealan]

Just got my first orchid v4. What a clart on to get it to stop peeing juice all over (my fault though as I tried the top fill methods first) quick recoil and rewick to a different ohm and tried bottom filling it. It still had a small leak from through the airholes for a little bit but it looks like the vacuum has built up now and it's as close to my rdas as possible. Wooo why haven't I nabbed one of these sooner. Anywho

I didn't get any orings with it but having looked at this pic and it looks like there's some really ickle ones. Are these for the fill screw as this one hasn't got one on? No leakage from there as yet though. Does anyone sell a set of orings in the uk? They'd be handy as I always seem to knack the rubbery sods

I have 2 diff types of V4 that both came in that box and the chimney o'rings are very different sizes, the tank o'rings are like kayfun but a little fatter.

Think it's the lil fill screw one I'm missing. Is there anything paulymeatballs hasn't done a review on hah

[VapingBad]

I tried the fill screw one and it leaked, gone back to a bit of PTFE tape on the screw.

[dalealan]

Good idea VapingBad I'll give it a whirl. Impressed with the vapour it's chucking out though. I'll keep practicing how to fill it without losing about a mil of liquid

[sydsut]

Little O-rings are for the top cap I think where the chimney pokes through. It's critical to the vacuum formed keeping the V4 from leaking. My clone www.fasttech.com/p/1904601 doesn't have a filler screw O-ring and it doesn't leak from the hole.

[VapingBad]

They fill a lot easier with a full length clear Kayfun tank, with the stock tank you have to go slow, tilting it a little with the fill hole lower helps the air from the top section come up the other side of the chimney if that makes sense.

[dalealan]

Yip that's the one I've got sydsut thought the lil ones in the pic were spares for the fill screw for some daft reason and the slightly larger ones were for the chimney. Just clicked on the slightly larger ones are probably for the driptip. Whoops

I'll get one ordered VapingBad as I think that was the problem I had when I tried bottom filling it. I was too impatient and I've probably created a big air bubble instead of waiting. I'll grab one of these methinks www.fasttech.com/products/1662304

Yep those will make it eaiser

[dalealan]

Massive thanks as usual VapingBad and sydsut it's the first rta I've had so it'll take a bit of practice but it's much better for flavour and vapour than I was expecting. Think I'll drop the nic to the same as I use on my drippers. I've gone light headed

that's my most viewed vid! 40 thousand people watched it and chose not to subscribe 

[VapingBad]

Don't take it to heart paulymeatballs I love your videos just as much as Todd does, but I don't subscribe to any youtube channels and you probably have more than your share of A+++ viewers like me

[dalealan]

Cheeky buggers haha I blame that review and me being mistaken on what those lil orings were in the fasttech pictures for wandering about the house looking for ickle rubber orings

[VapingBad]

One of the clones I got didn't come with the little o'rings, it also had allen key grub screws for the connections.

[dalealan]

I'm bloody useless with grub screws. Think I'll order another one from fasttech as the spares will come in handy. I've already nearly lost one of the Philips head ones by unscrewing it out of the post too much then it went wobbly and fell on the floor. Yeah I'm a dab hand at this vaping malarkey VapingBad haha
