Done my first ever re-wick and coil today. 2.5ohms not to bad for a 1st attempt. I followed todds tips for the wick and its capping great www.toddsreviews.com/2013/04/hints-tips-for-ss-dream.html?m=1Filled it by taking the base and chamber off, remove drip tip and cover hole with blu-tack, turn upside down and fill 1/3 full and then screw the base on and turn the right way up. Seems to be doing the job, no leaks or gurgling! Now to work on my coil making skills...... That's the same as I said, except I just put my thumb over the hole.

Mine is not in the channels, a little fiddly but it works. I have added a fill screw which seems to work ok, but the easiest way without appears to be: Remove Dream from battery Remove drip tip Put thumb/finger over drip tip hole and turn upside down Remove bottom section (complete from the tank) Fill about 1/3 replace bottom section and tighten. Turn right way up, replace drip tip stick on mod and vape away - Do the dry toke if needed to sort pressure/wicking. I take no responsibility for anyone reading this incorrectly and drowning in gallons of juice

The small left hand button (-) went some time ago. Still works OK, but have to cycle upwards to change v/w and cant check battery voltage. Must get another.

To both of you. There is an absolute wealth of information and mixers willing and able to help and share their knowledge on here. If you have the time then have a really good read of some of the stuff on here. Good people, good recipes and good knowledge.

I was getting that initially, but have found a couple of dry tokes (so you can see bubbles rising) seems to sort out the pressure and wicking. Once it's settled down it vapes like a dream (see what I did there) I am going to get a couple more.
Ekowool does seem to be the way forward, all of my silica attys have improved with its use.

There you go again, twisting stuff to try and make yourself look clever, gillas made a post about you being a 'mixed up guy' in another thread not about the dream (I never said it was about the dream) You were the same in mixology, trying to be clever, that backfired on you a bit. Your tosh was about comparing it to a cartotank as you put it. No, not very friendly, but then I think you are a **** and have no reason to be friendly to you. You are the only person on this forum that I feel that way about and I have met a few of them, good guys (and gals). Believe me I don't like feeling this way about you, but you really wind me up with some of the stuff you post. So it comes down to you wanting to make a personal attack and nothing about if a dream is OK led down on its side. Nuff said. Give it a rest with the clever stuff eh!! I don't know about a dream laid down, cos I don't intend to try it, I wouldn't lay any tank atty on its side. Happy?

Rubbish. I am with Gillas on this, you really try to come over all the expert with your semi intelligible gibberish. Yes maybe I do have the answers, unlike you. I was using a carto tank before you had even heard of vaping and never had any problems then, you know why? I listened to advice and didn't think I knew it all, trying to be clever. I never knew Gillas has an opinion on the dream. I have given a reason I think they are better stood up and you come back with ''you do talk some tosh'' now you say Im trying to be clever. Not very friendly I must say. There you go again, twisting stuff to try and make yourself look clever, gillas made a post about you being a 'mixed up guy' in another thread not about the dream (I never said it was about the dream) You were the same in mixology, trying to be clever, that backfired on you a bit.

I don't fully understand the pressure-equalisation thing with the Dream, but what I'm getting at is this: if the atty is left in the horizontal position, will the juice pass in through the lower hole, expelling air from the upper one, and flood the atomiser chamber? The dream is basically a rebuildable cartotank so your always going to get pressure issues leading to gurgling and flooding. Ive found that cartotanks are better left in a shaded cool place when not being used. Preferably empty. These units they act like a barometer, so its best to keep them stood up so both holes are always submerged, that way thers a chance of having a bit of negative pressure and not to much flooding. You do talk some tosh. A cartotank, where's the carto then? No flooding or gurgling with mine.
