All fixed now

@Alex ,@Room Fogger , @Cor and others... my last RTA was the SM25 and I did not have the best of times with it - any opinions on how the Zeus compares? Just how easy is it to wick (CBV2)

It's actually one of the easiest to wick out of all my tanks ie OBS Crius, Ammit 22 and 25, and a few others I cant recall the names of atm.

@craigb , it's not difficult at all to wick taking into consideration that less is more for this tank. As per my link in an earlier post, as long as you thin out the tails, and make sure that they do not hang into the juicewell, you will be fine and have and excellent flavour tank. It took me about 2 wicks in one night to master it, and the main thing was not thinning out the tails enough resulting in muted flavour. A great option for anyone and I will continue to rate it one of the best flavour tanks I have tried.

Has anyone ever tried filling their Zeus with any of these dropper bottles?
I see the fill holes are slightly smaller than what I'm used to seeing.

Just wondering if these bottle tips fit and fill without leaking?

Thanks in advance.

I have, in fact, I fill two of my 4 Zeus tanks with those bottles and DIY juice daily with no mess. Just hold the nozzle right at the side on the fill slot to create a bit of a seal on one side of the nozzle and squeeze slowly.

Thank you sir.
Been wanting to start in mixing in these bottles, attempting to crowbar the nozzles off the chubby gorillas gets old LOL.

Go for it on the mixing side, I use the same for mixing and refilling all my tanks. On some of them you can go fast, others just take it slow.

If you can fit it and fill a Dwarv with it any tank can be filled. Always ensure you get the bullet point ones, as the other on is flat cut and is more difficult to use.

Many happy refills and great clouds to you.

Do you have a picture of each for comparison please?

Wil check tonight and post here.

Day 2 of using the Zeus, not too happy with the flavour just yet. Not popping as good as the Ammit 25.
Will try thinning out the wicks a bit more when I get home and revert.

Some info:
- Ni80 fused clapton 6 wraps at 0.20ohms
- 3.5mm ID
- Vaping at 47.5W
- CB Prime

What the wicks currently look like:

Those are the correct bottles to use. The flat ones I was talking about has a thick spout with a flat point that doesn’t fit in anywhere. Said I would take a photo, but it seems as if I have gotten rid of all of them.

 

[Darius1332]

Try 3 or 2.5mm ID and yes thin out the wicks will help a lot. If CB doesn't work for you try some Rayon maybe, you can come grab some from me on the weekend if you want or VapeMob has it for R20 for 1m. I much preferred Rayon in the Zeus, GF swears by CBP so YMMV.

Those tails looks a bit thick to me, in this tank less in more otherwise no flavour.

 

[vicTor]

yip, smaller coil and cotton very thinned out

Will do.
Can I snip some off these or do I have to rewick?

(Please don't say rewick, I'm flippen lazy LOL)

Will have to rebuild then, I went with DJLSB as he said 3.5mm is better.
Thanks, will revert either later or tomorrow.

you can keep the coil and see how it goes, but definitely rewick

You can try snipping about 25%off there, it may work but difficult to say as the Cotton has allready swelled up. Also, I don’t like CB Prime asi get dry hits or no flavour from it.

https://www.ecigssa.co.za/if-you-were-going-to-buy-an-rta.t46608/page-2#post-631458 Have a look at this link to see how much you have to thin out, and I would try a different cotton.

Hmmmm, only other cotton I have is Streaky.

I agree on the Prime hey, don't like it

 

[Room Fogger]

That’s a 3mm coil in there, so 3.5 will not make a big difference, but you have to thin out the tails.

 

[Room Fogger]

Streaky is fine, still using it in some tanks, just it has about a 2 ml break in time to get rid of the cotton taste
