I found a place in England that do it for £24.00 so I might get it.

watsy probably the video on building one will illuminate the problems that it creates

Nooooo! Lol is it that bad? 

I recieved both the Steam Crave Aromamizer Supreme and Griffin 25 ,  so far the Aromamizer beats it hands down.

I wish I had noticed the Griffin has those bloody stupid holes where you put the tails from the wick. Never had any joy from that set up yet. Whereas the deck on the Aromamizer is far better imo.

Wicking for me was the biggest problem. Tried wicking it several times and no matter how hard I try, I will never get to like dry hits. A little less wick and anything less than an upright positon will result in an unwelcome juice bath. IMO it was complete faff and not worth any more effort. That Avocado should think itself lucky it found a new home and escaped the fate of it's friend the Aromamiser.

Thanks for that, looking forward to it arriving now.

I have to agree with striker42, wicking is a tease, but I used a Scottish Roll wicking method, and made it a little less tight than usual, and it's working well now. It's not a tank to take out and about as it does have to be kept upright; it sits in one of those neat little Fasttech aluminium bases on my dining room table and gets used in the evenings when I sit at my pooter after everyone else has gone to bed!!
Would I buy another? I'm doubtful, but that's only because I can't take it out of the house!

A word of caution, discovered the hard way; don't overtighten, as unscrewing can part the glass tank from the very thin base plate, resulting in a hand full of juice. You will only make this mistake once!

the new limitless unit looks less of a faff to work on although it too has the same problem of just o-rings holding it all together www.gearbest.com/rebuildable-atomizers/pp_360325.html?54525

I think that for being travel friendly I would want to see one that screws together, but was as simple to build and use as the limitless / maybe in another few generations one will comes out that's designed for the average joe to use /

I will wait then

Got one coming from Focalecig and unlike others I am looking forward to its arrival, if it is just half as good as my Theorem it will be a bloody good flavour atty.
