Hello guys, wondering if anyone can help a girl out. I am not good with modding, heck I cant even get the tube off the Stardust but Working with the CE2's I came up (probably not original!) with something I would like to see...so how can I get... One of these... To look like One of these... I like the 3.5ml form factor as it should go nice on the ego/riva battery. I guess it is kind of a revised stone tank shrunken! I already have a 2.5ml Vision Extreme CE2 (I blew up the 3.5ml!) but cannot stand the whistle tip it comes with as it mutes the flavour but I know with ce2's working and wicking right flavour is good. Guess it's a bit like a cross between a dct tank, stardust, f1 (without the cover), stone tank and replaceable ce2 innards. Any idea's how to achieve my goal?

Lol, I've been thinking about the same thing - I#ve got some DCTs on order from the group buy, and some CE2 Ultimate XLs in waiting. Whilst making my Frankentank, I fiddled aroung with the CE2 tube and found it too fat to go through the end caps. Without the tube the base will be too loose and leak. So I thought I could use bits of sawn off cartomiser for padding out around the base and for fitting a drip tip. cutting cartos is a faff, and needs a tube cutter (I got a great mintube cutter in Wickes for £4) and you will need to file down the very sharp edges. When the GB ship comes in, I'll probably have a go at this myself, so will be better able to advise.

Mind you, the 13mm ones you show in the photo might fit directly, using the outer O-ring from the base cap of the DCT I did the same with my Stardust innards on the Frankentank.

Hmmmm, so there may be a possibility that I could just plug from the bottom?

I reckon so. The only thing you might need is some bits of cut off condom to help seal around the bottom.
I also think you could reuse the thingy out of the drip tip to keep the top sealed and properly aligned.

Swapping out the O ring that the CE's come supplied with might help as well . . . I do that with all the last revision Clearomiser's ( not the current new HC ones ) for my Arry Tanks and they work beautifully, completely leak free.

I also used those o-rings to turn a warrior/challenger tank into a CE2 tank, they work a treat. Then I cut the tank down and used the short CE2s in it, even better

would love to see some pictures as I got lost around the time of O ring talk :-[ lol I know a ce2 has 2 rings right? the cup seal one and the donut one, oh and one around the base by the battery so three in total. Where on earth would I put them on a tank like set up and how would I seal the cup bit to stop flooding as well?

LOL Am just getting ready to go out so haven't time for pics. The o-rings that perpy linked to are for the battery connector end, they sit around the recess in the base in place of the thin one that comes supplied. This allows it to seal when placed inside a tank

im confused but i took the sleeve off an old 510 atty to place at top(over the silicon bit that goes on top of ceramic coil)and placed drip tip in that. tbh it slips a bit at bottom but i also removed the gold bar off the atty which fits perfect in the dct i just need to get round to filing the inside so it fits ce2 properly.
i thing theres a way of doing it with the ss ce2 whereas you cut a segment or just drill a hole like normal. i was thinking a boge would fit using a driptip o ring over the threading attached to a 510 adapter(with hole) too.
