O Ring Lube

All these cry babys on you tube whining about their authentic or clone atomizers O rings

Don't cha know that's what blistex was made for

geeze.. people think ...


Noob tip #2--- DO NOT get blistex carmex whatever your lip goo of choice is in the fill holes of your kayfun v4's chimney
that would not be beneficial



Your all very welcome lube them o rings !!  

This is in the media general news section, thought I would link it here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...nch-new-attack-against-vaping-march-23-a.html  

I do know where I can get o-rings for my technical needs (oil resistant, heat resistant, etc.), but I have now idea where to get FDA approved o-rings suitable as spare rings for tanks.  

Now that most of the stocking up is behind us, what would be a suitable procedure for maintaining items in storage?

For regulated mods, keeping them dry is probably all that is needed. But should the sealed wrap be removed to avoid condensation inside?

How about atomizers? I had a problem in removing the cap from a used RDA after it was in storage for two years. Had to resort to using WD40 because the o-rings became adhered to the metal surfaces. I ruined the o-rings in the process. Would it make sense to go through and disassemble/reassemble things at certain time intervals? Should items be stored disassembled? Will o-rings become permanently compressed over time? Maybe put some vg on the o-rings for storage? Or should o-rings be removed? It's already been said that things should be cleaned/soaked before going into storage.

I have one RDA that gets sticky while in use. I remove the cap about once a week, just so I can.

What do you do? What do you think?  

2 Years ago, I tried my first cigalike and promptly ordered a Halo Triton Kit, and have been cigarette and smoke free since.

I just wanted to thank ECF for help keeping me focused, interested and distracted with the rapidly changing technology to remain smoke free. Special recognition to the 2 sub-forums that helped me the most: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ussion/519685-natural-tobaccos-part-deux.html and Halo . That's where I started and I am forever grateful for the help, encouragement and PIF'ing that occurred after I lost my job a month after I began vaping. It was a bad time to having just quit smoking, but because of ECF, vaping, and the folks at those 2 threads, I remain a vaper and never looked back.  

I'm in the process of taking steps (starting with all my PM's) to make this new change be as painless as possible for me.

Per Rolygate posted on 04/09:

Next week we are moving from our old faithful forum software, vBulletin, to a newer application called XenForo.

The changeover day will be late in the week and most likely on or before Saturday 18th. We'll post a Notice just before it happens.

You can expect pretty much everything to be different, so there will be lots of fun

This has been in the planning for over a year now, and is finally going live. It isn't easy moving a giant forum to a new application, so it's taken some time to do.

The protruding collar on the hinged cap, where the drip tip is pushed onto, has a perished o ring. There are two tiny o rings here and the perished one means my drip tip falls off. I am not sure what I need to order to replace the o ring. Could someone with more knowledge than myself suggest to what I might need please? I am in the UK.  

We now have a support group for budget-minded vapers. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/groups/vaping-dollar-day.html It was created just this morning! Join, and tell us about your economies, why you are budget-minded, and anything else. When the pressure to spend gets too much to bear, we will remind you why three Provaris are two too many.  

Hi vapers.

So I wanted to change out the o-rings on my Crown IV tank as it has a bit of a leak when it's almost empty....

However, I can't figure out how I'm gonna get this o-ring out.
Any tips ?


​
Any ideas are much appreciated ! Thx !

EDIT: Got it out with a tiny dab tool !
