Bulli Smoker A2 – DIY Atomiser, similar to the Nhaler Ato-miser

[pianoguy]

I got an e-mail today announcing the availability of the stainless version - I think I will order one of those as well. I had exchanged e-mails with him a while back about the possibility of getting one with a hole through the bottom so I could use it with a juice feeder - may give that a shot, too.

 

[Pheary]

A hole through the bottom would definitely improve the device (just off centre). I am not 100% sure as I don't have a juice feeder, but couldn't you just thread the wick through a hole at bottom of the A2 into the juice container? It should wick up-wards, just like a CE2?

I am hoping he does an A3 that has a lower reservoir of it's own (like a CE2 just without the need for a juice feeder mod).

Hmmm, that is a thought. Would save a lot of bottle-squeezing ;-)

Finally got mine in..took 20 days (including weekends), it's funny how they used a paper towel instead of bubble wrap for cushion. They did do the initial setup as a 4.0 ohm wrap since I placed in the comments that I'm using 6v. The drag is loose but this atomizer creates tons of vapor!

will do a review along with instructions vid after this week...(youtube:vapingmonkey)

Well I ordered another. Looks like he is caught up finally and has full SS. Plus I ordered an eGo adapter cone. Will make it easier to run two diff flavors.

Good to hear it has arrived vpingmonkey, keep us updated on the video. I want to see that vapour plumage haha!

If you could (although you might look a bit silly on the video), try to take the biggest drag you have ever taken and let everyone see the nice thick vapour. I do this quite often when I need a fast hit and it really does mellow you out

Get a nice nicotine buzz off this atomiser I am on I think about 12 days now with my current winding, perfect vaping hit after hit. I am refilling a fair bit and sometimes do flood the atomiser (noob error) but other than that, no complaints. Big thanks to JollyRogers for the o-ring tip, my airhole is perfect now and seems to be staying put.

vid will be ready this weekend...it does create a lot of vapor but its too loose of a drag, dunno if it's the atomizer itself or that it's set to 4.0 ohms...will test it out more...

 

[Vaping Monkey]

actually finished it today: hope this helps...

Nice vid/review CJ. Hey how does the hole line up with yours IRT to the coil? Also, if it is to airy, plug the hole with some silicon, then use a needle to poke though the silicon slightly, make it larger until you get the pull you want.

I also find certain flavors are really toned down, while others work great with the bulli A-2. For example, my RY4 tastes exactly the same on a LR1.5Ω @ 3.5vdc and on my A-2 @ 2.2Ω at 3.9vdc.

Cool reviews guys. CJ, there is plenty of information in this thread, perhaps have a little tinker, you should be getting flavour although this is quite a smooth vape compared to some atomisers. Although if you get the ohm right you can seriously rip a new hole in your throat from the kick haha.

Just keep tinkering until you find what you prefer, I find the more throat hit the more flavour and a heap load of vapour too. So try to get the throat hit right for you and everything else should be right too with any luck.

I totally agree with you Brad, more emphasis on the atomiser is needed and less on the mods. Although I must confess, that A2 looks beautiful on your GG.

Hey guys!

Ive ordere one too. Fortunately Im living in Austria and it only should take about 1 week according to cetin. Pretty exciting.

@ Pheary: Did you find a suitable substitute for Cetins wick so far? Well, according to german forums there are two possible, kind of good working, substitutes so far. Both dont seem to be nearly as good as Cetins are. One is Orthmann Schnur and the other is already posted I guess. Maybe Orthmann is posted too, I dunno

A guy in a german Forum asked Cetin for the right wick. Of course he wouldnt tell but at least he told him that it is the same wick as used in the 901 801 atomizers. So maybe this could help.
Cheers

I have the a2 and the ato-mizer and cetins wick is leaps and bounds above the ones that came with the ato-mizer. I am going to ask someone about what wick is used in 901s and report back if I find anything out.

 

[JollyRogers]

To me the wick appears to be the same as what is in the CE2 cartomizers... If anyone knows were to source that in the US, it would be awesome. I bought a bunch from Cetin, but would like to know where I could get some here. Kanthal has been found via ebay.

 

[Pheary]

I agree with JR, unless someone in the know at Royal Smokers tells us or Cetin, then I very much doubt we will ever work it out. I have tried quite a few things and nothing really came close, fingers crossed someone tells us or someone works out what it is

I got my full stainless BS A-2 510 in today. It is a very nice piece of work. Well worth the 5eur more then the aluminum one. Also got an ego adapter. Not much to it, but it dresses it up nicely over the cut down ego cone I was using. Considering I use a steel ego/riva batts a lot when out, this is a real nice setup.

I have another a2 on the way as well but what I am really excited about is the bulli-smoker elite that is in the same package. When I saw the craftsmanship of the a2 I had a feeling that I would not be disappointed with one of Cetins mods. I will let you guys know.

Hey Jolly, I thought you already had a steel a2, was I mistaken?

 

[JollyRogers]

I was mistaken. I knew the body was aluminum. After getting my second in SS, no question the whole thing is aluminum. The SS is much nicer, though it is heavier.

 

[BigBopper]

JR, I like your sig
I ordered my SS A2 of Feb 23rd, and it arrived over the weekend. So far I'm liking it. Plenty of vapor, but the throat hit is a bit lacking, and I don't like a hard throat hit. I'm thinking it isn't wicking properly from the cartridge. I read along here somewhere that someone pulled the filler out, and wrapped it around some wick then left the wick stick out ~1cm to improve the wicking. Has anyone else tried that? Has anyone come up with a good tank mod idea as Pheary thinks should work?
I'm still only on my second day of using it, so I'm sure I'll get some of this figured out. Thanks for a great thread.

edit: I just thought to mention that I'm using this on my Darwin. Wonderful combo. And the atty does swing down to turn it off in case anyone wonders.
