I seem to recall someone asking about using a drill not that long ago Moonie. . . the blender's a far better idea though.  I can't even imagine the mess I'd make. I think I'll stick to shaking for now. |

Have you tried tilting it when filling?
Or squeezing the bottle first to expel the excess air and then putting the needle in the hole?

Is your wick really tight in the wick hole?

If I had to buy another charger and batteries the deal wouldn't be so good. I think buying the body only was only about 4 quid cheaper so therefor I think you are are right and the vamo would be a better option Take their advice, Gordy. Get a Vamo, some Efest batteries and a decent charger. The separate charger and batteries will work out more to start with, but will last a whole lot longer so you'll save money in the long run. SS Vamos are available from Vaporbreak for less than £30 delivered. |

I'm useing 325 mesh with 100% VG in an Aga t and it works fine, I'd give the 200 a go and see what happens,,,,,,nothing to loose! Yes, thanks, I`ll give it a go, no point in letting it lie there for ever lol Alternatively, roll a thin 200 wick and then the 400 around it, so you get the best of both. |

The 200 will hold more due to the bigger holes but isn't so good on capillary action, so the juice won't 'climb' up the wick as high.

Just done my Aga T with 5 wraps on a 2mm drillbit at 1.5ohms.
No problem trapping the wire nor wicking and I found it easier to wrap in a neater coil.
I think I may be converted.

I have a local shop, as well as a local stall in the High Street, but they're both selling the same gear as they were when I started five months ago, at rather high prices, so I haven't used them since the first three or four weeks at the beginning. The high street vendor tried to sell my sister one of the clearos with non-replaceable heads for £8 recently, and markups like this really piss me off. have to agree with that i am in same position with regards to local vendor luckily he charges very reasonable prices the above clearos u mention r like 4 quid and the ones with replaceable heads a fiver handy if you get caught short She would have had one if they'd been £4, which is what he'd led her to believe the previous time she'd been there, but wasn't going to pay £8 for a throwaway. Fortunately she had her big brother to donate some spares. |

I dont mean to be the burden of news but you know you could have done this yourself and saved a fortune? Not the money side but your pet would have appreciated you doing the work. (obviously within reason)... I know this sounds bad but vets are only in it for the ££££££..... our bitch who was pregnant went into labor, everything was going well untill a pup got stuck, I rushed her to the vets and they basically said, "If you dont have £900 right now to pay we will do nothing and both pups and mom will die".... we phoned other vets and the same story. Vets today do not give a crap about the animals, its just another commercialized lets get rich quick crap hence why I would have done it mysellf (obviously not the emergency C-section, we DID pay it ofacuse and all pups survived and homed with wonderful owners, we kept one of the pups that ironically was the one that got stuck!) Given the option of trying to diagnose the problem while stemming the bloodflow or taking her to the vet, I think I'd have chosen the vet like pixi did. |

I'm led to believe there are quite a few people in China, and it baffles me that so many indulge in cloning.
They managed the Aga series, which are original, well-made and inexpensive, so why don't more of them invest a bit more in designing original items like these, or even improving on what they have.
If Vision brought out a SS version of a Vivi Nova for example, for a few quid more than the current ones, they'd sell millions of them.

How long will it take to wash them out, 30 seconds?
Why not do it and put your mind at rest?
