I got spare o rings with mine when i bought it
The tank and posts fit perfectly and look great, i do have a coil problem though. both on this and my new cobra i am getting a hot glowing wire at the top of the coil where it goes over to the post, i have the wick bent over so its as close to the post as i can get it, i've re coiled a couple of times on both devices but it wont go away ? Both are vaping well but every now and again i'm getting a harsh burnt taste , .2 kanthal 1.3 ohms 500 mesh , my first attempt must have been luck as it worked a treat, i'm using a blow torch for oxidising and i'm fairly sure its well done , the wick is black and wet, any ideas what i'm doing wrong ?

Pal Mal... The VAMO works great, my plus button isn't clicky like the left button, but I read others had this too...no big thing for me.. I will now order my back up.... Just got my metal button one and it is exactly the same, sounds less clicky, but the same "action", not a problem Its the right button on mine, been using it for a week now, no problems |

I think I read in the newsletter that they have switched from using discount codes to using loyalty points instead. Could be mixing them up with a different vendor though because there have been quite a few newsletters arriving lately. I think You are rite steve, i have some points stacked up. it doesn't amount to 10% though , the codes definitely not working anyway, Sadie i'm afraid i don't do Facebook , no worries i will drop them an email see what they say, cheers all |

Well, i have finally got around to trying my first ss wick on the Aga and amazingly enough i've nailed it, vapes an absolute treat. The best flavour i have got so far from anything else i've used, i am well chuffed.
The wick is a bit bent , not like some of the photos i've seen posted on here but it works. i used 500 mesh with .2 kanthal and its come out at 1.6 ohms and i followed todds drill bit method, no hot spots either, its a bloody miracle !!
