my battery cooked my wimpy atomizer to perfection!

[freddo]

Alright i found this pretty damn cool and maybe a solution to healing wimpy atomizers!!

Right well here goes....

My atomizer started to go wimpy after i decided to clean it. It has been alive for almost 2months now so i thought it was due a good old clean. Well anyway, after i cleaned and dried for a 2 days it was even more wimpy than before....damn! this was before i began messing about with some funny batteries

I was fiddlin about with one of my batteries which kept turning itself on randomly (very over sensitive switch) and changing it between atomizers to see if it might work with a specific one...still kept doing it.

I plugged it into my wimpy atomizer(which i hadn't touch in about a 3 days after cleaning/drying) and what a suprise, it was still turning itself on, much like a cleaning cycle...well anyway i let it fry away for i dunno about 15 secs or so, till it started getting hot, so i unscrewed. I then plugged a normal battery into the wimp after dropping a few drops into it and much to my suprise vapour production was increased by about 60-70%, i was just about to throw it away too!! the flavour was still there an' all

If any others have any faulty batts and some wimpy atomizers give it a try, trust me you won't regret it and plus you got nothing to lose. I was amazed...

I think that all a wimpy atomizer needs is a good old heating once its gotten old!!

(btw this was with a dse901 white)

try it out and tell me if it works for you??

Thanks guys

Yes I suspect that this is all the e-turbo in the other thread does. Heats up the coil to burn the crap off. Nothing more. At the end of the day what more can you do with an electric current and a heating coil ?

I'll second this notion,
On another thread some of us are gutting our old 901 batteries and connecting usb cables to them. The effects are verry similar to what your stating here. The higher run time / or in the usb case Voltage burns the gunk off our dieing atomizers. I found taking the atomizer off My USB901 and putting it onto my battery powered 901 produced superior vapor. I Then proceeded to place the once battery operated atomizer onto my USB901 and PRESTO-CHANGE 'O, it fixed that one too.


I good wash is fine but I found that putting it on my USB901 extends the time it even needs to be washed.

Keep your carts wet,

X3 ...

My USB901 (made by bastaga <-- shoutout) is awesome. Draw stays consistent 100% of the time. Lots of power = smooth running atomizer ...

Just tried it with 3 801 atomizers and 2 are like new with one fried

Used one of those aa battery boxes with a manual switch, pressed switch and looked down inside the atomizer till it glowed red hot!

And as meatloaf said 2 outta 3 aint bad

well done mate. it works it works!!

i've heard similar stories with the screwdriver doing much the same thing, because you can control the time on , seems it can help to refresh gunked up atomizers.

Yes the SD can perk up some wimps, I've got a couple of 901s that are real wimps on the 901 battery, but on the screwdriver they perked up. I'll try really zapping them on the SD and see if that really boosts them.

Check me on this but I think of my atomizers as akin to old school incandescent light bulbs... too much constant current and they'll burn out resulting in a broken connection and no more current flow/heating/operation. Are the little suckers sturdier than I am thinking?

All this talk of blasting an atomizer with power freaks me out. With my Screwdriver I can look down the cartless atomizer hole as I trigger the switch, and if I apply power too long it starts to glow orange down there. This freaks me out.

I think this (may) work if you have an crud covered atomiser. Heat the atomiser up hard and the crud burns off. Do it for too long and you burn out the atomiser. The SD perks up atomisers, I think, by 2 methods :-
1: The big battery means there is a lot less voltage drop under load
2: With a wimp, you can press the button a bit longer before you draw.

The blasting would replicate the dreaded cleaning cycle of auto batteries. Big problem with that is it happened when you were not expecting it, if you had a dryish cart in the filling would melt and the atomiser would taste like crap for ages.
