I tend to stay away from the gold threaded ones... as they do leak like crazy. All silver for me... and I'm lovin' the 510 cartos from Electronicstix! Very well made and work great.
I'm a carto fanatic... I'm strictly regular 510's at 4.5 volts. They aren't that great at 3.7... so you need to go ahead and grab up a 5v unit! Nothing better for me!
We're probably a tad late for that I would think. I'm gonna go ahead and guess that they already have any and all information they could possibly want from this forum... and any others. Wouldn't you agree?? I mean, it's not like they can't come on and dig up any and all old posts that they could possibly want?
IF anything happens... I would imagine that it will be a while.
You will certainly be able to get what you are planning... as long as Chris has it stocked!
Lucky your wife was able to fix ya up! All of my stuff for the day fits perfect in one of those hard eyeglass cases. I even had some foam pieces that I cut to fit so nothing rattles around!
Another good reason for ordering a carton of 50 cartos yesterday! I think from now on that is going to be the only way I even buy the things... hell, it's all I plan on using for the time being, until something better comes along!
I wonder what in the world could "damage" the threads anyway? I mean, it's not like they would get damaged like you describe if a box just fell over in shipment or something... it just seems like it would almost have to happen in the manufacturing process of the threaded part?? Strange...
And even easier/less messy is to put a "condom" on the threads end half way. Then give it the "thermometer shake" a few times and you will be good to go. This is what I do when I want to get any excess juice out of one. Except when trying to empty it all the way I will give it a good "taryn spin"... You should put the "condom" on the mouthpiece end for this one though... you will get much more out of it and it helps loosen the filler a bit too. It's amazing how much you can get out of one!
