Cheyenne tube and a Neo Vivace

When I spoke to Ray, about using T-tech/Hawk cartridges he recommended switching from the superlube grease supplied to the oil, worth a try if you are getting heat build up or having to flick the slider to start your machine.

Well, I'm using a tube labelled "super lube multi-purpose synthetic based oil with PTFE". Is that what you're referring to? And I"m using a Bishop, not Neotat, although they are basically the same thing.

I've used the Bishop with normal everyday tube/tip/grip/needle setup, it works fine. It only has this heating up problem if I try to use it with Hawk cartridges. Needless to say I will not be running it like that anymore. I will try it with T-tech, see if that eliminates the problem.

And speaking of t-tech, they are out of stock on almost all their cartridges. Another poster here shared an email back in early May, where t-tech stated they'd be restocking in about 4 weeks. Well it's been over 8 now WTF.

If I'm going to be a regular user of the product, I need the damn product. Pretty lame.

Yep, that's the stuff! I only had issues using my long stroke Neotat but it was with both Hawk & T-Tech cartridges.
