Bellus RBA

Just wanted to pipe in here and post this Grimmgreen video. I have been wicking like he does from the very beginning and I get no leaks. I sometimes leave the airflow open when filling and still no leaks(luckily). I see a lot of posts all over about the leaking and it is pretty tricky getting it right if you have ti find out for yourself but I do it exactly like he does and its totally fine for me.

I hope it helps some of you guys out.

Here is the video

Thanks for this. Also been using this method from the start and no leaks whatsoever. Luckily it's pretty much the same method I use for my Subtank so easy peasy. Re-wicked twice and refilled about 4 times on each of the wicks with top full only and all is good. Even chanced not closing the airholes sometimes out of pure laziness and still no leaks.

Now onto my experience. It came with a 0.2ohm build. Not sure the specs but on holiday so didn't carry all my rebuilding gear and using what I've got. Interestingly I'm now vaping at about 50W with this build where my goto build is always 0.5ohm on everything and wattage between 21 & 32 previously. Certainly reminds me of a mech dripper but I can vape more than 3 toots, a lot more. Getting massive clouds and very good flavour but I don't think the flavour is on par with what I expected. Will be playing with the builds after the holidays. Finally have a tank with big enough holes for my Clapton wire (I'm hoping)

hey everyone.

would just like to know between this and the Aromamizer and Mutation MT RTA which has the most Airflow? not worried about flavour.
I got a Billow V2 with Claptons in and flavour is good. but i find the airflow very restrictive.
Mainly using a kennedy 22 with ss316L spaced 9 wrap 4mm coils Used with temp control (RX200) Loving it and the airflow is awesome but just hating to drip as often. SO I thought id look into a new tank. love the look of the bellus but im afraid i wont like the airflow?
 
Hi @Jono90 I don't think you going to be able to fit in builds bigger than 2.5mm ID coils without it touching the chimney shafts. At the moment I'm not able to even get 2.5mm 26g Claptons in this deck. Now it could just be me, but that's my experience. The aromamizer on the hand can take huge coils because of its velocity style deck. Just my 2c.

This tank is a real beast! I love how it rejuices the wick with each refill :D

I've used this tank since the start of Novemberish and with it has come so much flavour and clouds with neat, and I emphasize NEAT builds that are spaciously aware and wicked minimally; only to prevent leaking.

Juices have all been 70/30 with 3mg Nic,
The anomaly was trying 12mg of Turkish Tobacco to wick with, so, wicking with a juice I like the least to smoke a liquid I like: that was a throat Kick!@nd a 1/2!

I want a challenge for this tank though, because of it's beautiful craftmanship and that is to use the coils that came wrapped each in 10's and were in such a way that they were meant to be vertically aligned.

My Next challenge for this tank is using it as it was intended: Vertical Coiling :D
Anyone know how to stack the wick for a vertical coil in this here tank?
does one cotton go over the wire

and one under for the juice channel?

OR must it still be a circular wrap around the Coil of 4-5 wraps?

:pLease tell me someone else has wondered about verticals in a dual coil beast Bellus??

P.S. Rayon and Cotton combined are pretty significant companions

32 holes on a bellus with control over 2-4-7 at a time, you'll have plent of option to control how much air.
A non-vaper said to me yesterday when he tried the Bellus that he had more flavour in it being open, and less as it was closed.
This Bellus does do wonders for air flow. Just bare in mind the air around you and if you actually want to cyclone that air into your lungs.
It's a super easy pull with tonnes of flavour mahn!
 
my whole thing is not really build size. but how much watts i can push without dry hitting my billow v2 i can take up to 70ish and im still ok.
the past 3 months iv only been using drippers mainly the velocity and now the kennedy 22 both are awesome.
so yeah just hoping im not ganna be disappointed with a tank.

anybody tried the Mutation tank? airflow seems bigger?
 
Quad coil build on the Bellus.. .3ohm 2mm ID 10/9 wrap. Flavour is incredible but EXTREMELY thirsty!

The Bellus continues to be one of my favourite tanks! Despite it leaking a little everytime I fill them.

That's NEAT! :D hahah so how little of a leak are you talking about? because I used to have times where I could blow into a cloth, and this tank would flush it's drainage onto the cloth as if it was meant to happen. Nowadays though, a neat, thin wick to the edges works like a wall for MaxVG juice of the mob's
 
Yip I have taken to using the bottom fill method nowadays... plus I love a new fresh rayon wick which I do every second fill! :rock:
 
I have a 100% NO LEAKING Method... you wont like it... but i actually bottomfill mine...
Through those gaping holes? hahahh that defeats the topfill of this tank -

Do you still open up the top to check the amount of vapour collected inside the seal?

but still, if it works, FANTASTIC, because it's not leaking at all! :D

Hey, not sure what you mean with :

Do you still open up the top to check the amount of vapour collected inside the seal?

but it never leaks and i hate that the airflow does not seal which is the downfall of that ragetty top fill system...

@Rob Fisher As a user of more than one Bellus, have you ever tried racking yourself two vertical coils? How did it go? Any recommendations for doing this?

Unscrew the top lid to check the moisture underneath from where you pull -
Where the top fill insulator is? Do you not check it there?
 
I have dual coils in both Bellus's (one with micro coils and the other with 2,5mm coils) and both give me outstanding flavour so never tried anything else.
 
If you look at your bellus. Unscrew the lid where the driptip is attached and let me know if there's moisture there from bottom-filling?

yea there is some. but it never ever disturbs the vape experience. i just took a pic now to show you and infact right after screwing it back on as you would in top fill, she leaked a bit (gargling)... im telling you bud, bottom fill = no leaks.

@BeardedVaper93

Sorry to cause that, okay, so reverse filling can still do that to you. You can blow what's in the middle chimney out into a cloth if you hold it on the air holes while blowing outwards instead of pulling in.
