AFS feedbacks

[Vaughanie]

I decided not to try 6v with my AFS for this reason on 901. So far so good with my original atty at 3.7. I wonder why they blow so quickly at 6v when this doesn't happen without AFS?

More heat around the atty with the enclosure of the AFS, I can only assume?

I think it is just because they get SOOO much use because you are not using anything else... hahha...

 

[LuxDelux]

Thanks guys. I plan to also use them at 3.7v. Not that I wouldn't want at higher but I'm more into longer battery life. Besides for now I just ordered 18650 batts.

Can't wait anymore aaargh

BTW there's a lot of mention on which side the hole is facing when using AFS, I presume you all mean the default 901 air hole? As I figured the liquid hole is not very visible.

Oh and also Lisa do we get a cart tip with the AFS atties? I currently only have some default 901 empty carts so I'm wondering .

I am still using my first attie (almost 2 months!!) but then I only use it at 3.7 V
Can't wait for the HV atties

WOW!!! you've been veeeeery lucky with that one.

When I say they last me about a week, that's not necessarily when they blow completely, they just kind of tail off in performance - then you have to try them at 6v to get anything decent out of them....
I think the new batch that will be coming will be better than the original ones we supplied.

That's it too, I hit mine hard and often as you are well aware...

Gotta love those 18650s for looooong battery life.
Don't miss out on HV vaping though, it's definitely worth a try at some point.

The wait begins - just did all my mailing so hopefully you won't have to wait too long......

The AFS laser hole is in the same line as the original air-hole so we talk about where the hole is for optimum liquid flow. If you are holding the PV in such a way that the laser hole isn't beneath the level of the liquid, you risk dry burning your atty.

Oh and also Lisa do we get a cart tip with the AFS atties? I currently only have some default 901 empty carts so I'm wondering .

Sorry, no you don't get any kind of cart tip with the AFS partly because Imeo doesn't send me them and partly because some people prefer the 901 cart and others prefer the RN4075 type, so I leave it up to the customer to choose their preference themselves. The 901 cart works but you may have to cut a bit of the plastic off the inside of it before using so that it doesn't cover the laser hole.

then use the 14500's, but you need to take spares with you. Put them in the Trans when it is straight up, no spacers needed, well at least not in mine, they work fine without. Are they loose in length in your case? they are slimmer then the tube, but that should not be a problem when the negative and positive make contact. Of course you have to take away one ring of the tube but I guess you have done that ;-)

 

[emonty]

Don't know if anybody noticed, but when using the AFS with the TW Atties I noticed that the logo on the attie "breaks"away and leaves small residue in the AFS. So What I did is that I scraped away the logo before using it, that way no small particles from the paint can enter the lasered hole and clog it up.

This thread is for the AFS.... cause it ROCKS!!!!! And people want to know how to use it and not so much the batteries that drive it. Please refrain from posting anything other than AFS comments in this thread.....

Is your message for Lisa or me? I was responding to her message in this thread, but I do understand keeping the forum specific messages in their proper place. Thanks for your understanding.

I never had as much pleasure yet as much trouble since using the AFS. It rocks really!

But I'm having hard time with the occasional sudden leakage. I'm still trying to figure out how to solve it, in order to have an all time leakage proof vaping .

Then I also noticed that it works best when it's filled over 2/3 rd of its capacity. Probably the weigh of the liquid helps more in the suction, at this level. And it is curiously at this level that I have less gargling issues and less leakage too.

Which also makes me go crazy when trying to figure out why and how.

Also I wish Imeo can produce an AFS for the Slim. That would be a revolution in itself!

 

[vapn]

Yes the leakage issue is about to be solved. I think good things are just around the corner for the AFS. And I think it has a lot to do with the atty performance that starts the leakage problems. I think it has to do with the battery starting to loose its ooommmff... When the battery is at full charge I get less leakage. And if I try to go with 3.7 it is just a mess. I find the best results when using it at 6v. The atty can keep up with the liquid flow. Also notice that when using the cartomizer connection on my Grant I get less juice flow because of the increase of air flow at the atty. There are many variables to deal with at one time and it can have its bad days but overall the AFS is a godsend especially when driving.

Yes this is what I have been experiencing too.

Also, I learned to screw the atty on the cap very tight, before screwing back the cap on the device.

Reason is the center pin of the cap. It moves, which is normally a very good thing. But if it moves upward a little much, the atty leaks quite significantly straight on the batteries. which has more chances to happen, if we put the batteries, then the cap, then screw the atty.

Mist, the leakage is from the atty and not from AFS but you know that already, I just say it in case people get confused. B ut dont worry much because new AFS dont leak from the atty. I found a new way to stop atomizer leaking xaxaxa.

The existing AFS works very good if you fill it until its internal visible threads, no problem to this

I am making some very nice things for GGTS now. After this I will see about slim AFS for sure

Yes it's true. The AFS does not leak. It's the atomizer that leaks.

Leakage proof AFS?

Slim AFS?

Those are 2 wonderful musics to my ears. Can't wait to have these...hahaha

You found one of my updates Mist, the AFS that dont let atomizer to leak

I've only used at 3.7v and have had two go on me fairly quickly. I bought 4 in all. Irritatingly, the ones I have left seem not to feeding through the hole. Before I consign them as AFS failed is there anything I might try to clean up the holes (in case they are blocked for any reason).

Just blow through it, works for me

 

[Vaughanie]

Thanks emonty - strange, i had already tried that... my AFS seems to be working again.. not sure why I'm getting intermittent results..

Incidently, I think I've just discovered a long life small 3.7v battery that may get the overall size down.

you get those results because the atty's hole is closed by liquid. Blow it or suck it hard and it will open again. To check the hole, look inside the atty having light against you

 

[Vaughanie]

Have to say, however, that when it works it's a superb flavoursome vape and I was actually someone who never really liked 3.7v vaping.

With the AFS I'm a convert. Can't wait to see what this baby will do with higher voltage atties
