I wanted to post a question to some experienced vapor's in the community that have gone through testing of a variety of different scenarios.
Currently I have a couple of different devices, 380mah 901 battery, standard eGo, 901 and 801 USB PT and a Prodigy V3.1. The Prodigy I can do 3.7v and 6v. When I went over to the Prodigy at 3.7v I opted for the LR DSE801 1.9ohm SLB atty and I have yet to find another system that gives me better pleasure, vapor and flavor than this system. This is a dripping scenario. I have yet to try HV atty but I should have some in the mail on the 18th of December. I have done standard 801 atty with 6v but I do not find it as pleasurable as the 3.7 LR setup. I think I like the 7.8 to 9.5 watt range or somewhere around that area.
I have wanted to try and experiment with other atty so I got the 501 and 901 adapters for my V3 so I can use pretty much any atty for testing. I wanted to try and find a way to use Cartomizers so I would not have to drip all the time (mostly for driving). I have yet to find a system for my V3 that works as well as the 801LR3.7 setup. Either the flavor drastically changes the taste of my favorite ejuice or the Cartomizer has a burnt or funny taste to it. I have tried a range of the following atty/cartoz,
Joye 510 cartoz
BE510 LR and Standard
KR808 at 3.9ohm
VaporKings 2ohm 510
Cisco 306 LR
IKV mini LR801
IKV 501/801 fusion carto
510 E2 R4 Cartomizers, 2.8-3.0 ohm
As it stands this is my take on the lot.
-Joye510's were ok at 6V, probably the best of the bunch really. It produces a warmer vapor though and it kind of leaves a coating in my mouth if I use it all day that kind of gives me cottonmouth.
-BE510 work very well on my eGo and can carry a lot of juice. Not so much on the Prodigy though which is what I am looking for mostly.
-KR808 did a decent job but not as well as the Joye did at 6v.
-VK 510 did not perform very well at 3.7v and I am not sure why. I would think 2ohm would be sufficient but I think they need to a little lower ohm to perform better.
-Cisco 306, I was hoping for great things with these since so many people say they are awesome not seeing it personally. Gives a funny/burnt taste if I inhale too long. I am not a long inhaler like some review videos you watch. I think I take about a 3 second activated inhale then I let go of the button then take in the rest of the vapor within the atty. Almost always a burnt taste, if I take a shorter inhale, not enough vapor or flavor to be worth anything.
-IKV mini 801 was a nice plus, pretty much the same as my 801 in a smaller package. The 2 I received from him were coming in at 2.4ohms though and he is going to check on why they were not coming in at the proper 1.7-1.9 range so I am holding off on making a very good judgment. They are awesome on my USB PT though.
-IKV Fusion 801 was a good contender but still did not have the flavor and vapor consumption of my LR801 dripping method. I think if he makes a LR version of it, it might be an excellent addition.
-510 E2 R4 cartoz I am not sure why so many people are praising these, almost every scenario I tried is giving me a burnt taste or just not performing very well. I tried the standard way, I tried the PTB way and a modified dripping configuration and nothing really changed.
So after these tests I still have not come up with a way that is better than my LR801 @ 3.7v. I am beginning to wonder if it is the ejuice I am using. I understand that certain mixtures will provide different results depending on equipment.
At the present moment I primarily use a flavor called Karma Scotch from puresmoker. I have asked a couple times if I could get a basic vg/pg% of mixture of this flavor from PS but I think they would think I am trying to steal their recipe, which I am not. I would just like to know what I can do to extend my variety by making some other flavors of my own. I have tried some other eJuices from VK and FSUSA and I find that those have left me with cottonmouth or chapped lips and I think it might be the vg mixture since I tried to make some myself and I was left with the same results.
So the big question is if anyone else has tried some of the same things I have but have found a perfect way of doing things without needed to drip all the time.
I plan on purchasing a GGTS because I really like the craftsmanship, quality and the AVS system. I realize I will have to do some testing with that also but that comes later.
To sum things up, I really love the flavor and amount of vapor I get from my current setup but have been unable to find a better way. I know a lot of people on the ECF use 510 atty but I have not been able to find one I like at the moment. I also realize a lot of the people that use the 510 might be using standard kits like the eGo and Joye 510 but I am more interested in pre made mods like the Prodigy or GGTS. I would love to make my own mod but that is another discussion.
