Grrr - I am not a fan of cartomizers - which IMHO should either be placed in a tank or the bin. So when this thing arrived, with an extension tube and I saw how long the tube was, and the device was with a proper bit of kit on it I almost gave up. But nope, I'd fit a Bud atomizer in it, wouldn't I? I would, if it would have fitted into the incredibly small tube designed, yup, to take cartomizers. Manufacturers who design just for cartos deserve to fail.

As supplied - with cartomizer only tube

Then I rationalized - I'd never use it as supplied, so a bit of quick and dirty work with a rotary tool (yet to be polished) and....

tada!

As modded - tube internal diameter increased, tube cut away and shortened.

Which is what I wanted for work - fitted with Bud tank atomizer and working - capable of taking a standard 510 atomizer too.

And that is what it's all about really, in a nutshell! Bet you couldn't make it fit a 6ml Pyrex tank though.
 
Nice bit of modding Bryan though I'd take a carto over a bud every day of the week ;)

Thank you Mark. I still have the box of virgin Boges that came with my Boge bottom feeder - which is on my Mod list. This should do well for work - I tool my Old Goat in and it got filthy and needed cleaning inside after 1 night in my pocket - I should only need to look after the mouthpiece on this :).
