I already have a RSST. good vape and value for money. Anyone tried drilling a bigger hole?

Yup... I have all mine opened-up to about 1.5 mm. All you need is a small tapered rat-tail file (mouse tail?), and it only takes a couple of minutes. Just slowly rotate the file in the hole until its the size you want....but try it a few times...it's easy to make the hole too large. Just a few tenths of a millimeter make a lot of difference . Opening up the air hole makes a huge difference in vapor production, but takes a little while to get used to the draw. Easy to over-draw & kill the flavors.

You can usually find the files at most hobby shops - especially those specializing in model trains.

If you drill another hole, it should be lined up with the existing hole. You always want your air holes lined up with your wick, or you will get a MUCH stronger throat hit and poor vapor production. You are usually better off just enlarging the existing hole.
