Filed Subtank Juice Channels

[Toondog]

Anyone else done this?

I did and it's worked a treat. I made some really ace builds on the RBA deck before I did it but found that I had to "return to the wick" a couple of hours later on quite a few occasions which is fine if your at home but not when your out and about and that is, after all, why I bought my Subtank Minis, to get as close as possible to a dripping experience whilst away for work or driving etc.

I used a small triangular file and extended the channels into the base by about 1/3. I use 80% undiluted Boots VG in all my mixes and every wick I have made since filing the channels has been good to go without any need to make adjustments.

I wick as normal with Muji then cut the wick in half lengthways on both sides of the coil giving you "four tails" two on each side. I screw the body of the RBA on and trim the four ends a fraction above the top of the body. Then I just shove the two tails down each side leaving a V where the juice channels are, prime it and bobs your uncle.

I'm posting this because I know people have a bit of bother with high VG mixes on the RBA, my subtanks are the updated ones with the larger channels, however I still found it a bit of a fanny on to get the wick right for high VG mixes. This five minute job has taken ALL of the hassle out of my Subtank minis keeping them firmly in top spot for me as far as tanks are concerned.

Just thought I'd share that with you.

Any chance of posting pics? I've not had any problems with my subtanks but I was wondering about widening the juice channels as I vape high vg mixes
