fatalis Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Hi!

keenan Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I dont have any idea what Plmk means, BUT, its the stuff a fish tank filter is made of. Just get a filter at Wal Mart for about $1.97 and cut it up. I read somewhere that its also the stuffing for pillows, but I dont know for sure about that one. If you go the filter route, youll notice it when you see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyColtsfan Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 This topic is a tough one to answer. There are more answers than there are members of the board probably. Some people like the lipton tea bag mod, others like polyfill, and others like sponge. Then there are steel mesh mods, direct drip, etc. You will need to experiment to find the one that works best for you. I'll try to post some walk through steps on different materials tomorrow.

NeRo9k Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 There has been a lot of debates as to what is the best filer to use. Some people recommend tea bags while others say fluval works great. I've also read, like Keenan stated, people use wool. I have no experience with this as I only direct drip, but I've seen a couple instructional youtube videos for these methods.

TheGreen Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I think I have tried most of them. From Fluval to the brass screen mod, teabag mod, 100% poly-fill, etc, etc. I got tired of the juice leakage and poor wicking. I know there are some good cartridge mods out there, but I think I'll just wait until someone mass produces a quality one. I would have to say that I learned a lot about my e-cig by experimenting with it. Now I direct drip. It's simple, no carts to clean and refill. I also heard that the vaportalk store will have a direct drip device similar to the e dobit that has great potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keenan Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 The fish tank filter is working for me. I think its exactly the same as what comes in the carts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keenan Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) Hi Keenan, plmk means "please let me know", hehe I KNEW it was something like that, couldnt get my brain to figure it out ! I got some of the fishtank filter last night, I figured I better try it out before I go giving any more advice. It works really well, you just have to rinse out the charcoal. For $2.00, its worth it. it looks like EXACTLY the same stuff. Just make sure you get the white ones, there is blue filters too, not sure if its the same stuff.
