2 Deaths in 2 Days..

[Dusty_D]

Damn you vaping Gods. Damn you all..

Yesterday they took from me my very first bridgeless atty from Greenhouseone. And, while I could have forgiven them that transgression, what they did today shall not go without consequence.

Today they had the gall, nay, the sheer audacity to take from me my very own "SuperAtty". I have been using SuperAtty since September. He lived in my eGo case and was used everyday on my way to and while I was at work. Firing tirelessly and producing copious amounts of vapor every single time until he just went cold on me today. I tried my best to resuscitate him, but alas his spirit had already gone and joined with those other great ones in the ether. WHY?!!

Rest in peace dear atty. You will be missed!

well you got me with the thread title lol, I was like OH NO vaping IS going to kill me, not unless all these damn mods i am buying fall on me.

haha I am thinking about having a burial service for my first truly blown atty. (I joke) Honestly I never kill atties (cartos die on me regularly) not even the LR varieties have "popped" or "went cold" on me in my entire vaping career.

It might be luck, but I think it's the habits of the vaper that really define the longevity of an atty. Honestly I could just be plugging any old atty on here, so the only "proof" I can offer is my own words and demonstration.

When LR 510's first hit the market in Canada, Jack gave me a free one to try out along with my SS Drip Tip and 510 cartos so I could see which I like and I still have it! Here is a video I shot a few days ago (I know, I have a lot more hair than my profile pic in here) that kind of proves it and I describe why I think I've never popped one.



Anyway just thought I'd share! And yes I even run a 901 at 6 volts and it still works as well.

Yep - got my attention too! ...whew... hate for anyone to die from mods falling on them. But... if some of those mods keep growing in size - they may need to be sold with parking spots...

I hate when them dang super Atty's go on ya, I have 2 right now that just wont quit on my and they are just one no two steps up from there brothers and sister of the same exact make and model, when we get these Atty's I think we really do treasure them if you a true vapor and when they go it is painful for us all.

Been there and done that as well. I had a terrible run with some 801s from HC. Now I am back on par with attys lasting 5-6 months. My secret, don't wash 'em.

Best darn video and tips and tricks I have seen. What a way to revove all the BS that we find out there.

I will be the first to admit that you can get the odd bad atty, but if you are blowing them for no apparent reason, it is not the atty. I have yet to pop an atty from IKV, they just fade away into the sunset. Usually 4 months plus down the road.

That being said... I am not a proponent of de-bridging. Noiz you have been successful, but many do not have dripping down path and a flooded condition is nearly as bad, sometimes worst than a dry condition in my experience.

This may not reach the majority, but hey... It was shared amongst Canadians. BZ!

Thanks Switched I appreciate that. I will have to keep that info about de-bridging in mind for others because I can see how it's not for beginners and could do some damage, I'll have add a caption to the video as well.

Agreed about bad atty's those are just luck of the draw (which I think I have been very lucky) and that flooded flavor totally confused me when I first managed to over-drip, haha. I thought it was running dry and blindly dripped in two more drops only to get a mouth full of juice and more gross flavor.
