Adding 1/3 more pg or vg will do it, so 33.3 ish. Don't forget you will be weakening the flavour as well so you might want to add more concentrate to that 33.3

Thanks Stu, i ordered a 5 pack of them, worth a punt at £1.75 each.  Hi Jcol. I bought several of the T4's from fastech. They are great value, don't leak, easy to fill, have a removable decent drip tip, easy to fill, perform very well and are an absolute doddle to recoil/wick. I think I bought a 7 pack initially and then had to order more because my sons keep 'borrowing' them whenever they visit  They have all the benfifits of the original T3's with none of the defects. I think you'll be delighted - especially at the Fastech price ! |

There is a 30 minute follow up Horizon programme tonight on Beeb 2 at 10pm which looks at the cats who stood out in the experiment conducted in The Secret Life of the Cat.

Hi prr, the o ring under my firing pin has just come out, what's the easiest way to tease it back in ? Edited to add... It's ok, I just found this thread which answers all Vamo O-ring split Good luck with tightening yours, I suspect you just need to push it in more firmly? |

Didn't she used to do the Gadget show ? I rather liked how managed to reduce the inane ramblings of Eddy Jordan  |

Does anyone know how to dismatle the connector end of the spring loaded ones without destroying the mechanism ? If not I'll risk sacrificing one of them to find out If you unscrew the atomiser head, you can poke a mini screwdriver in from the top, push down and the centre pin will fall out. Thanks for that! sounds like you've already trodden that path The non spring loaded ones so far have just needed a quick bit of dremmeling as they mostly seem to be suffering from excess plating over the externals of the air hole. So far so good with the one I'm using, good flavour and vapour with the supplied wick and coil still in it. The parts are thread for thread interchangeable with the Vision Vivi Novas I have but the centre posts are lower on the clones. Not that that matters. I have some of the T4 kangeresque ones due in the next few days, lots to keep me busy! |

Ordered some of those dodgy Novas - 5 minis and 4 full size - 2 of the more expensive boxed sets and 2 of the loose ones. The loose ones and the boxed ones are the same except the loose ones are spring tip. Ordered 22nd May arrived today so just shy of 2 weeks on free delivery. Placed another order 3 days later so we'll see when that one gets in. The Novas are interesting. Sad to say I think from a quick look at random ones they all suffer the blocked airflow problem and some are spring tip, some are not, even from within the same skew. Looking at the airtubes inside, they are well made, much skinnier tubes than the visions but also much more sealed up inside. I'm thinking that (once the airflow is sorted) they will fill better than the visions, I always found them to flood and gurgle if you went anywhere near the max fill line on them. Does anyone know how to dismatle the connector end of the spring loaded ones without destroying the mechanism ? If not I'll risk sacrificing one of them to find out This was my first order with Fasttech, pleased with price and delivery, not worried that some modding is required but for that reason I couldn't recommend Fasttech to novice vapours, as in the case of this order they'd mainly have a bag of unusable Novas and be very disappointed. |

These were mentioned on Vapour Joes the other day clicky (this is for a conversion base unit only) I was hoping to find the bases as I have loads of T3 tanks. This will bring them into line with the rest of the Kanger range and will make re building a doddle (instead of a fumble lol) The T3 has always been my favourite BC clearo, so I ordered 5 T4's from Fasttech today. If they arrive before I go for some essential work by the medics I'll try and put up a quick review. Buying the 5 pack worked out alittle over 2 quid each, so a no brainer really edited to add -why do you say these are NOT Kangers ? I studied them and concluded they probably are, just curious as to why we both reached different conclusions. Could it be the addition of a removable mouthpiece ? |

So it does ! Good spot I accidentaly found the 'hold right for power settings' yesterday. I couldn't find how to get out of it  The 'hold left' display options is a very useful setting though. Pound for pound this has to be one of the best mods out there atm. |

I use Scotch 'Magic' sticky tape.
It is translucent and you can write directly on it using a cd / dvd type marker. Sticks easily and well to plastic or glass bottles and is easy to remove when you need to.
I also used it to reduce the air hole in my RSST top after accidentally increasing it a bit to much! It doesn't wrinkle off despite how hot that top can get sometimes.

Excellent it gets better and better. In W8 for this version it seems to work ok set as Administrator in XP sp3 compat mode. I probably wont be restarting the computer until tomorrow so the acid test for me will be will it still reconnect after a reboot. V1.2 and below never would on my machine. If it doesn't I have an old laptop running W7 which looks after security cams and the like so I can always stick it on there. I really like the new home screen options, thanks Robby for your screen shot and explanation, made a lot more sense then the provided Chinglish information For me 11 watts isn't a problem as I rarely go over 7 anyway. Chuffed with this upgrade, when funds permit I may buy another head and treat it to some new clothes, I think the black tube set looks very smart. I really really wish there was a Linux version as well as I'm trying very hard now to consign Windows to the dustbin of history. |

I bought one from them months ago, with those terms clearly stated on the web site. My understanding is that Joytec rights in the UK ar5e totaly owned by another company which I will never ever give any money to.
The device has been first class in every respect, arrived in a couple of days at an (at the time) good price.
It was not one of the afflicted recalled batch and Ive never had any difficulty updating it's firmware.
So whilst I can see it might look fishy, my own experience has been completely positive.
