I have a bunch of Seuthe smoke units in my parts box, and I can put one on the bench with five drops of Megasteam and it'll smoke about five minutes before it runs out. I'm feeding them the rated 6 volts from a bench power supply. I don't know why it would stop in 30 seconds, that doesn't seem right.
It's pretty consistent and absolutely pathetic. I bought it two months ago. I take it a wick would destroy it or possibly do nothing?
My 2026 will puff smoke with JT's Megasteam for well over and hour and then some. I cleaned out the waxy stuff from the pellets I used as a kid, added a spring, a wadded up half length of new wick, a chimney gasket; and it works better than I remember it as a kid in the fifties. And that's with a few drops.
