Hi, Im not sure of the best place to put this, so I thought I'd try here.

Anyway I'm looking for somewhere to get some Silicone stoppers/bungs 2mm diameter

I have an AgaT+, It has some screw holes on top.

1 is used for the ss mesh wick (without a screw in it).
1 is used for the screw to hold 1 end of the coil wire (with a screw in it)
1 is used as the filling hole (with a screw in it)
1 is used with a push in thingy for using a silica wick (with an even smaller screw in on top of the push in thing)

All these holes are the same size. I'm guessing they are 2mm but I dont know (based on drill bit method for coiling a Cobra, says 2mm)

So what I'm looking for is a silicone bung, to replace the screw for the filling hole. I dont want to carry a screwdriver around with me, & if I'm out all day I want to be able to refill my juice (with a needle bottle)

Anyone know where I can get some of these please? I have seen a rebuildable of this style with a silicone bung for the filler hole, but I cant remember what it was or where I saw it.
 
not sure where you could get one specially made... but you could make one?


Sounds a bit daft but you could fill the hole with silicone, let it set and then just push the needle through :P it shouldn't pop out that way until its spent and needs replacing. You could also let a lil ball of silicone dry, then cut it to size with a craft knife and fit it tightly.
 
I don't bother with the filling screw, it seems to wick better and I always keep it upright so leaking isn't a problem.
 
Thanks for the suggestions peeps. I'm not sure about the ear tunnel/plug, at the top it says plug but in the description it says tunnel(=hollow). I will say if that's 2mm in the middle, I've not seen 1 that long. But if its a plug that would work.
I have found a place that does tapered "stoppers", £1.20 each min order 10, seems a bit pricey for what they are. Also they are a bit long but could be cut down. I've also found a place that does something similar, much less per unit, but min order 250 = same money to spend.

I have a 10mm ear hole myself done before it was the fashion to do such things. My collection of 10mm ear plugs.
