So like I said I modded my rba deck after having wicking problems and dry hits so like any of us I went searching for answers and found the Don on YouTube he drilled hole into the chimney of the rda and his setup works great doesn't even have to prime the wick so instead of drilling holes I took my dremel and glass reamer to the little bastard and opened up the juice channel a bit I went from 18 watts (anything above I'd get dry hits) to 25 wats with higher VG completely happy with my first time diy wicks like a champ I thought I could open it up even more but I've found if I have it laying on its side in the head it seems a bit flooded but within a rip or two it's gone no gurgling or flooding issues other then that

I also reamed my juice channels out with a tiny carbide burr.
It needs to be done!
What was kanger thinking? That we all vape 24 mg 100% pg from the gas station?
Hope they have the good sense to revamp future RBA decks.

I did the same to my rba and it made a huge difference, a must do imo. Niw i have the new rba plus and it wicks no problem. I have taken it to 30 watts with 80/20 juice and no where near a dry hit.
