Does anyone have any opinions on the 901 vs 510 atomizers? I got my S6 for 901 because I've heard the 801 can be difficult at times. I don't have any experience with the 510, but from videos and reviews I've seen people seem to love them.

So now that I've had a few weeks to try out the 901 at standard and HV, how do people think it compares to the 510, and the 801 for that matter.

They're both good and taste a bit diff at 3.7 and 6v. Cartomizers are also nice and you can use them on the 901 adapter.

I've also given up on the 801s for now. They leak all over the place. Not sure if I've just had bad luck lately, but I've tried 5-6 diff ones and they all leak like sieves. I thought the BE112s were working good for awhile just to have all of them start leaking on me too.

I used 510's for months until I finally got tired of the nasty metal taste that one out of every 3 produces...

Changed over to 901's and have not missed a beat... No more crappy metal taste that the 510's produce...

Never tried an 801 so can't comment on them, but I am glad I changed over to 901's...

Just a little tip here on the 801's teflon tape on your male end will stop the leaks

I don't follow. How do you screw the atomizer down if there's tape in between the threads?

The problem is that the airflow for them is through the center pole and that's where the juice leaks right out. I don't see any way of avoiding it besides keeping the atty near dry but then you get a nasty burnt taste right away on 6v.

I went with the 801 adaptor on my SS order because of the recomendation on the Super T site. I am vaping a 510 now. Hope I don't regret it! Wicked has HV attys 5 for $35.

Maybe you're mistaken. I don't see any HV atties on the TW site. Just the mega atomizers for 510. Those aren't HV. They just have a longer barrel to fit the bigger carts.

Yes but the tapes prevent the juice from comming up and passing through the threads.You just have to be carefull to not cover up any air holes as some attys have air holes on the side but most of the time the threads come before the holes. Natrually cant cover the bottom or batery contact points especially the bottom. but it does work well.

I have been looking for HV attys my self ( for a good price )....But yeah those are not HV attys though....Wish they were....Oh well....The search continues....

You can see all the atomisers I used on my S6 here:

The Super Six Review - Vapersplace....The Social Network For Vapers

I'm planning a comparative review of atomisers, but so far the ones that have impressed me on the S6 are the 4081 (really good with the double cart), the 510 mega, and the 901. I've not made my mind up about cartos yet...

I have some 4081's, I guess I need to order an adapter so I can use them on my S6. I bet I could burn them up in a hurry at 6V though.

UPDATE: I just placed an order from Heaven Gifts for some 510 XL atomizers and cartridges. Got the adapter so they would fit on my S6 for 901. Also got an adapter for the RN4081 atomizes as I have some of those around from my SE Gold.

Your right. I got some regular ones there and 2 HVs somewhere else. That's what happens when you order too much online :)

I bought my HV atty from Welcome To The Only Vapor Shop In Indianapolis And Central Indiana....... and it sure cut down the "knock you out" 6 volt hit. I would say it's about the same I get from the Prodigy, so 5 volts is about right. I heard the ones that nhaler sells will cut it down even more. Hopefully because I want to use it on my 7.2 volt Protoge. (The next mod!!) Yay!

Noing the voltages capeabilities of the batteries we use for our PV's.For the life of me I don't understand why someone would want to acheive 7.2 volts only to limit the voltage travel allowed through the atomizer when their is no need. Am I missing somthing?

Everyone knows the sweet spot for vapeing is 3.7 to 5 volts why would you want a 7.2 Mod to only be able to run one particular atomizer you loose out on the versilitility big time. I for one would not pay for a mod that does not work with both 3.7 & 6 volts. Why? becuase when a atomizer reaches a point where vapor production is inadiquit on 3.7 I can up the voltage and still get more life out of it on 5 or 6 volt.I regular vape on 3.7 with good produceing atomizers and only use 5 or 6 volt when I want a little extra kick or a weak juice or a underpar/worn atomizer.

Can Sombody please explain what im missing? Or am I the only one who vapes like this?

The Protege is only designed for 3.7 volts. There are no 3.0v batteries that will fit, to allow it to reach 6 volts. I just happened to run across some 3.6v batteries that WILL fit, but 7.2 is kind of ridiculous.. both on my lungs and my attys. Now that there are these high voltage attys available, it increased the versilitility of this tiny little 3.7 device, and will let me enjoy 6 volts.

The mods that happen to do both 3.7 and 6 volts are wonderful, but you said yourself that "Everyone knows the sweet spot for vapeing is 3.7 to 5 volts". I disagree, but with the high volt atty's you can take 6 volts down to your "sweet spot" of 5.

I found that I have outgrown 3.7 volts and vastly prefer 6. I usually only bring out the old 3.7 devices in the car, where it is difficult to drip. Bottom line... not all devices will allow different battery configurations and with these attys your options have increased.

If your sweet spot is 6 then go with that logic I have found 6 V0lt too harsh and burnt tasteing. Let me say with the average person 5 volts seems to be the most prefered.
That's why I said I would not purchase a device that does not utilize both 3.6 or 3.7 and 2 x 3.0 or 2 X 3.6 for 6.0 volt or above bottom line if you get a device that is limited or a voltage regulater in it you do not have as many options. For one as attomizers wear you can use higher voltage to get more life. For me many atomizers work well on 3.7 volts but not forever as they get weaker I go to 6 volt. If I do not have any weak atomizers and want a little more kick I will use a HV as I want a good hit but dont want it burnt tasteing.

But thier is no ligical reason to go up to 7.2 unless you plan to run the HV attys with the most resistance as it just too much for a regular atty.

my simple answer of why 7.4V.... I found some 3.7V batteries that I can fit 2 of in the Super6 that are protected...so I can get a 5.2ohm atty and knock that down to be closer to 5ish volts..

Longer answer...as it's been suggested in lots of other threads what we should be looking at is wattage and not nessicarily voltage...shooting for a power output of around 8-10 watts as that so called sweet spot...this can also be achieved by using just a 3.7 battery with a low resistance atty as well...you can just tweak things alot more...hell now I've seen 510 atties available in something like 6 different resistances..
