Aromamizer RDTA by Steam Crave

[Beeker]

Little late to the game, but i just got the Aromamizer the other day, with velocity deck, and so far so good... i think. This is my first venture beyond subtank minis. Just one question. Is it normal for there to be juice under the airflow band, or is this considered leaking? Whenever i think of my experiences with tanks leaking it's 'OH GOD ITS EVERYWHERE', and not 'is that juice under the airflow...?'
I just want to know if im doing something wrong, or if thats just how this tank is. Lol. Thanks in advance.

Mine does that too occasionally, especially with thinner store bought juices after it warms up a bit. With my thicker mixes it's extremely infrequent. My only other issue is an annoying 'pop', but I think it's because I use too much wick on top of the coil. Not a real problem just startling sometimes...

Normally that's just condensation built up. When I was using the bands, every time I filled the tank, I'd take the band off and dry it. Also, clearing out the air holes and taking a cotton swab and drying out the chimney chamber will help keep it to a minimum.

Also Higher VG juice works well,I haven't had one leak on me,I Build Verticle and Horizontal but I got the best performance from a Verticle Build.

The black Supreme was just listed on Fasttech: $35.80. I would have ordered this one, instead of the silver yesterday, had I known... Damn!

Ooo, wait, I forgot... I can cancel the silver one from my order (without messing with the rest of the order) and get this one instead... Another reason why I dig FT!

 

[Stringplucker]

Why go through FT for it? Spend a couple bucks more, and get it in 3 days from Subtank Supplies. They ship crazy fast.

Anyway, my red Trinity Copa came in today. It's supposed to be for the Supreme when it finally gets in, but I couldn't wait. I went to the parts house and matched up some touch up paint, then painted one of the two new RXs that came in this week.

That's normal for the Aromamizer. If you've been vaping heavy and then goto refill you'll get a drop or two out the drip tip as well. It's condensed vapor.

A lot better than the atties that pour the whole tank full of juice in your lap though.

Edit: whoops, up to late, originally had wrong device name.

Thanks for the responses. You have all definitely put my mind at ease. Ive only tried vertical builds so far, going to try horizontal sometime this week when i get more wire. Ive been watching the tank like a hawk just waiting for a massive juice leakage, but nothing has happened, so it must just be condensation.
I was getting flashbacks to my second ever mod and tank. Lol.
I got an eleaf 50w, and a subtank mini. Decided to try building my own coils. Being a total noob, i failed. And it leaked EVERYWHERE. I watched almost a full tank of juice leak out in less then a minute before i realized what was happening. Tried to dry my mod off the best i could, and went back to it.
The next day i was vaping on the eleaf, and the damn firing button just kept on firing after i get go of the button. Freaked me right out, and burnt out my freshly wicked coil. By the next day, it was doing it every time i pushed the button, so i took it back to my local B&M. Thankfully they replaced it for me, (kinda hard to say no when i set it on the counter and it started firing all by itself) and ive had no problems since. Still have that 50w kicking around somewhere.
But now everytime i see juice near any airflow i panic. Better safe then sorry i guess.

I can build coils but still can't get the subtank coils re-built spot on.does anyone suggest spaced coils when re-building ?

A lot easier than my Billow v2 was. I'd grab a Supreme, it'll be more forgiving.

I Re-built my Billow V2 Today,Compared to the Bellus I do prefer the Bellus,so much easier to get the wicking right.

I love my aromamizer×trinity tank combo... Not once have i gotten burnt lips and the flavor is amazing. Ive actually had to get used to it a bit. Still a bit too airy for my taste but ive managed and its grown on me quite a bit i have some blackberry and blueberry juice.. Tastes like im drinking a cup of fresh berry juice my first build was 2 verticals with .26 gauge wire on like a 2.5 mil screwdriver. Came out to about .44. Threw it on my SX mini ml, set to 66 watts and it really hits the spot. Good throat hit without being overly hot. Thumbs up from me!

huge fan of this tank! the first tank that had me neglecting my drippers.

My favourite build on it so far is a dual clapton SS 26 AWG core wrapped around 32awg kanthal, 6/7 wraps 2.5mm ID, horizontal. Running on TC with my RX200

I started off with a few vertical builds but found it a little troublesome to wick, somehow, with the vertical coils I had to block off the 2 air holes that do not hit the coils directly but with the horizontal coils, I could run it without the silly-con bands that would catch condensation. I am not sure why but perhaps with horizontal coils having more wick within the chamber adds a little restriction.

I must say my favourite thing about this tank is because I can remove the deck section any time I want without needing to drain the tank. And because I build mostly TC coils, having something where I can open up to check if I am doing something wrong with the coils in TC mode or if I need to make wick adjustments is just a thing of beauty. I might get a little more flavour out of some of my drippers, or there might be other tanks with bottom airflow that have better taste but the mere convenience of running this tank in TC mode is worth the slight compromise.

 

[pevinsghost]

Found something else I like on the tank. On the two hole band if the wicking can't keep up, you can block thetwo holes with your fingers to give it a prime by sucking on the drip tip.

You can do it on the four hole band too, but you have to actually twist the band to close it off.

Of course you can wick correctly instead, but it's nice to have the option.

I modded a clone deck to take larger singlecoil.
Post are cut so there are only 2 holes left in the posts.
Decks are pretty cheap at FT.

3.85mm ID 24g SS. Works perfectly.

Good going, friend. I like that you're somebody who gets an idea and just does it.

 

[Vapin Dave]

The reason you think they listen to that fan page on facebook, is that if someone posts anything even slightly critical of their products, the comment is removed, and usually the person posting is kicked out of the group. Notice how now the group speak is that coils not lining up with airholes is a good thing? 'it provides flexibility'...even after the designer himself said it's a mistake.

Yep that happened to me simply for mentioning they did not invent the velocity style of decks lol
A couple of guys in there that are mods are on power trips

Just ordered an Aromamizer v1 from the Steam Crave site and was wondering if the v2 base is less prone to leaking than the v1 base. I've read up on how to coil and wick the Velocity deck to minimize the chances of leaking and we'll see how things work out. Perhaps I'll just end up using the tank setup at home and take the Reo with me when I'm out on the road.

Received my V2 upgrade parts today. So far, so good. The AFC is nice and tight; moves when you want it to, doesn't when you don't. I'm running a 2.5mm fused Clapton single horizontal coil between the posts. Took the build straight out of my V1 into the V2. Airflow feels different, somehow, although everything should be the same (right?). But in a good way nevertheless, almost slightly less airy, with better flavor. Could be placebo.

The base is essentially the same, aside from the AFC. Wicking is key in my experience.

 

[sos2001]

I've never had a leaking problem with the Aromamizer. Condensation, yes, but very little. I've got 4 v1's and basically that's all I'm using.

Just got the Supreme in. Another great tank. Gonna play with the wicking a bit in that the vape is almost too saturated. Never have been a "wicking wizard".

 

[add44]

Well on second thought, perhaps the V2 may be more leak resistant since you can close off the airflow with the AFC. Hadn't considered that.
