AGA-T+ Modification

[Scot Thomas]

has anyone else ever drilled out the airhole on their AGA-T+?

Since I had two spares, I decided to experiment on one of them. Drilled out the air hole to a 3/64th inch hole. (Didn't have any metric bits.)
It's a tad airy now, but it vapes like a beast. It doubled my vapor production on the exact same coil. I'm not sure I will do this to either of the other tanks, but this one vapes really nice now.

Anyone else experiment with larger/smaller holes? What has it done for you?

As always I'm looking for ways to improve my already great vape.

Yep, my AGA-T is at 1.5mm & my RSST is at 2mm.
I even drilled out the drip tip on my iClear 30, forget the size, sorry. It was way to tight of a draw.

Using a EVOD head in a ProTank will tighten up the draw just a tiny bit. Makes it perfect imo.

I have yet to try the protank or an evod. I suppose I probably should pick some of those up to y'know see what they're like too.

I didn't exactly "drill" out the air hole, but I used a small Phillips head screwdriver and used it like an awl tool to enlarge them slightly. Yes, it improved air flow and improved vapor production.

I decided not to enlarge the wick hole as PBusardo did with his AGA.

I think trying to drill through the top cap would probably cause me fits. All I have is a craftsman cordless drill and a box of bits. One day I'll get a drill press or something less dangerous to mess around with.

That will work. You just have to go slow & easy, since you're not drilling through 1/4in. plate.
I like the awl idea!
No, actually... I REALLY like the awl idea!!!
That would give you infinite control over the hole size. And depending on the awl taper, it would add a nice bevel to hole.

you can use a countersink bit for a cleaner job(awl)
