Suggestions for rebuildable atomizers compatible with GLV2

[Harlan]

My husband and I both have GLV2 which we love. Lately we've been having terrible luck with atomizers. Atomizers used to last a month or more for me, but the ones we've purchased lately we're lucky if they last a week and we've had too many duds right from the package. If it only happened to me, I'd say it was my error or something amiss with my GLV2 - but this is happening to both of us. We're careful to keep it wet. I just don't see what we could be doing wrong.

I can't afford to keep buying atomizers so I was thinking that maybe the solution would be to go to a rebuildable atomizer. Most of the rebuildables I have seen (online) seem rather wide and I'm not sure if they'll fit on our GLV2s or if the button will be in the way.

Any help will be welcomed. I'm just so frustrated (and out of atomizers).

Vivi Nova Slim fits very well. Kanger T3/T3s/Evod MT3/Protank Mini or Vision VT fit too, but they all need an eGO adapter.
kayfun 2.1es fits too, though it isn't cheap option.

The phoenix's fit the GLV.....like here Phoenix Rebuildable Atomizer - Clone (though many venders sell them)
This is what I use most of the time on my GLV... When it works it just WORKS strong TH nice clean taste. It can sometimes be a PITA........but I think thats just about everything in vaping

Here's another vote for the Phoenix. Got mine at MoV vapors. Nice and cheap. Requires great fine motor skills. I can now rebuild them perfect each time. Takes practice. I'm running a vertical wire mesh coil. Works well but required tinkering. All in all it's a good solid investment and a start in rebuilding.

Temple Noble I have used the octopus on mine with an adapter. I think most would work with an adapter, not sure though.

Jim Thomson yep, I too use a 510/510 adapter with an octopus rda on my GLV and it works perfectly.

Thank you very much for your replies and advice!!

I'm an artist so my fine motor skills are very good. I've watched a few videos on rebuilding an atomizer and didn't see anything that I couldn't do.

Still looking around for a good place to buy wire and wick - mostly leaning towards eBay at the moment. I don't have a meter so that is another thing I need to find. I will be so glad to not need to buy another atomizer!!

Any advice on which type of wick??

 

[Harlan]

So I bought the phoenix rebuildable

and while it looks like it would work fine - it won't screw into the GLV2

WHAT DO I NEED to correct this?

This is SO disappointing - we have no working atomizers currently.

fasttech is where I got my multimeter from. Cheap as chips and works fine. I haven't tried it on my atomisers yet but not worried. Have an youtube video for that. Works fine on my batteries. It was something like £4 UK. Less than $8 including postage.

Also I love my protanks so you just need a ego-510 adapter for the protank mini or similar for the normal protank (or clone which is slightly better - davide glassomiser) and the beauty cone for the larger protanks...

Wick and wire...I know UK sites but not US

It either needs a 510-510 or a 510-ego adapter. I am not sure what the base looks like. One of those will work though and they are cheap enough to get both.

 

[Harlan]

Thanks for the replies.

I ordered 510-ego adapters and hope those are correct. They may not seem like they cost much, but for us they do.

 

[Harlan]

Adapters arrived and they WORK!!!

We are really enjoying these rebuildable atomizers (phoenix clones)!!

THANKS EVERYONE FOR HELPING!!!!

AGT on Supermini

 

[keyzygirl]

That looks Great!!

You do need to shave down the side of the button to get it to fit. Since doing this it has become my favourite mod once again.

 

[keyzygirl]

Maybe you could use an adapter.

 

[arth_d]

But it wouldn't look as good

 

[keyzygirl]

No, it wouldnt. I guess I said it so others would know that they could do it without having to do any alterations. LOL!!

Here is an Igo-S on a mini GLV2

I posted a thread in the RBA/RDA section looking for a high quality / non-clone RDA to fit with no adapter.

I'm going to order a "Hornet" and "Caliber" to try out. Both are similar size & design to the IGO-S but better made and original designs.

Take pics when you get them. I don't like o-ring are any of them threaded or all mini oring style
