Ideal stardust wicking

[Deleted]

I'd be interested in buying some Gordy.

The EVS is leaking..arseeeeeeee

[2risky]

Sorry to hear that Lisa. Any idea how it's leaking? Is it leaking from the central chamber onto the centre-pin, or elsewhere?

Also, I've explained the situation to e-cigz and asked if they plan on stocking CE2 wicks anytime soon. Awaiting a reply.

Yeah it looks like it coming from the centre tube, will have a proper look later on

Funny you say that Lisa, I am having a slight leaky problem too, just emptied my juice and gave it a warm water wash, coil and wick still look good so have no idea why unless the juice is flooding the atty some how

Make sure you're not overfilling it, just up to the 1.2ml mark works best for me. Above this the juice can go in to the center tube.

ecigz didn't reply to my message directly, but 5m CE2 wick is now back in stock so it may have had an effect, P&P is £2 unless you make the order up to £10.

So I ordered some, although I'll also try the ss if people decide to go for a group buy. We'll see how it goes.

It is possible to get juice in the top when filling as well btw.

I'm convinced! i need one of these!!! they look perfect - the convenience of a tank and the filling ease of a carto!
damn this spending!)

Reviews on here seem mixed, but I'm happy with mine. Ecig wizard seem to have a good deal at the mo if you use a code.

PM deesigner if you want inexpensive wire for coil, though wick has been a bit of a head-scratcher.

I definitely prefer these to cartos, given that they must also be cheaper long-term, although I'm massively tempted by Imists. It never ends.

Indeed it doesn't 2risky!

I'd love to know where Cam gets his CE2 wick from, for the GG rebuildables, as it's the nicest wick I've so far used.

[2risky]

Looking at some of the foreign vendors, it seems there's some kind of licensing deal for (Royalsmoker) CE2 wick because they refuse to export where they don't have a licence eg UK.

I've ordered some from ecigz, but it hasn't been dispatched yet, so I guess 'in stock' just means 'on order and we'll send it when it turns up' in this case.

I couldn't resist - ordered one yesterday!
They seem to be much more useable than standard cartos are and will make a huge difference to my vaping. I currently feel i have to fill all cartos if I leave the house for any length of time (different flavours I swap and change throughout the day) as I'm never confident how much is left in each.
At least with these just require a quick look.

And being able to re-wick and re-coil is the icing on the cake!
Incidentally - I have just bought some smokimisers from the GB and wonder if anyone knows if these can be re-wicked/coiled with the same wick/coil as the stardust?)

[Gordy]

no smokies are a totally different design Giz

[maccafan]

And if you try and clean the coil by taking it off like it says on the instruction card you'll probably have to rewick the bloody thing..

I thought as much! Not got mine yet so can't have a good look.
I see Electravape are selling these at £4.75 at the moment and you can add a rebuild kit (wick and coil) for £1.50, which you can get a couple/few rebuilds from.
Unsure how much hassle this kit would save instead of sourcing the bits individually, and whether its much more expensive?

As for the smokies - what wire is needed to replace the coil? Is it easy to get hold of?

[Gordy]

take a look here to see pics of the smoky taken apart... its not as easily done as with the CE4+ / stardusts ...wire would be the same 0.16 or similar
