I found a Canadian vendor that sells the AGT for $25, which I've got on order.. but their payment options kinda suck. I'm in the process of trying to get a Skrill account activated.

Anyway, aside from that one, are there any other reasonably priced 17mm genesis atomizers available? What about drippers?

I have a Bagua 14500 clone ordered, so I'm just trying to find something nice to pair with it that won't make it ridiculously long (I really hate long mods).

Pics would be great if anyone has any!

Thanks for the reply! :)

That Mini B is definitely the best looking atty in this size... unfortunately out of my price range by a fair margin.

I went ahead and ordered this, https://www.fasttech.com/products/1449600 - at only $8 I figure why not, it'll be good to have a simple dripper. I was hoping to find a dripper with a more smooth look to it, since all of the smaller ones seem to have a bunch of grooves in them, but I can't seem to find any.

I'd like to check out the AGA-S too, but I don't want to pay $20 for one... especially since CoV was clearing them out for $5 a piece. If only I could more at that price.. I'd buy a couple of them!

COV blew them out as they just sat in stock for such a long time... I'm not sure too many vendors are even carrying them anymore. Too many better atty's on the market that are way less of a hassle to setup and vape. If you are looking for deals on items you might want to check out PennyVaper.com. They seem to point most vapers in the right direction for a good deal usually...

I ordered the V6 as well. It just hit USA soil, and I should see it this week. I'll report back.
I have the Bagua clone.
It's a great little mod.
I also got the AGT for mine. But I end up dripping more than anything, so it doesn't get a whole lot of use.
You'll notice in the picture that there are some gaps between the tubes. I put orings there. Problem is that I am running button top efest 14500 batteries, and the button tops are too long.
So rather than just have a large gap at the switch side, I added small orings to the top and bottom pieces to balance it out.
The ultimate solution is to order flat top cells.
Here it is..............

With this...........

Cool, I look forward to seeing how you like the V6. I did read some reviews about button top batteries, so I ordered a flat top cuz I'm not a fan of gaps. :)

That does look really great though! I like the length.. not too long. I'm thinking the AGT might be a tad too long for me. Any chance you could post a pic of it on the Bagua? Mine's already ordered.. I'm just curious.

I don't know how the V6 missed my radar, but I'm going to get one. I prefer smaller drippers, like the IGO-S, Cyclone, Phoenix V4, etc., the V6 looks to be similar but a little bigger, like in between an IGO-S and an IGO-L.

No problem. Will do this evening.
It's actually not too bad with the agt.
Just need to run a shorty drip tip to keep it on the shorter side.
Ah, cool! I have a few shorty drip tips, so that's no prob.

Yeah, it looks like a great atty, especially for the price.. I really like that it has air flow control. The one thing I read about it though is that the air hole is too high. It works better if you can find a couple tiny screws that fit in the posts and secure the coil from the top of the posts instead.. lines up with the air hole better.

No problem and thanks!
That'll be a sweet setup for you and Mom too.
Take your time setting up the wick in the agt.
I got a little frustrated setting mine up the first time.
The wick is almost half the diameter of other genny setups and can be a little fiddly to get right.
I ended up doing a hollow straw style. Had issues with wicking any other way.
But once it's up and running, it works great.

Only getting a drip atty for my mom, I don't think she'd like fiddling with a genesis.

I haven't had much luck with SS mesh wicks yet. I was thinking I'll likely just use an ekowool wick in the AGT. Do you know what diameter I would need? People seem to be really happy with ceramic wicks, and SS rope too.. but I haven't tried either yet. If the holes are that small, those might not work anyway. But I do also have a Kraken clone coming along with the latest Caravela clone (it was only $14, how could I resist? lol).

Got the Bagua clones today. Very nice little mods I must say, though one of them has a slightly wonky button.. it's a little fiddly.

What I don't get though is why there's still a gap screwing on the top cap when I specifically bought and am using a flat top battery. People said the flat top batteries wouldn't cause a gap. Aside from grinding down the switch post, I'm not sure what else I could do to fix that. It does bother me though.
