De-bridging 306 and 510 atomizers - A video tutorial

[Terraphon]

I put this in the general forum, as well, because it doesn't seem like this one gets a lot of use and I have been asked who to do this by lots of people.

306 first, then 510!

Be warned : I am not responsible for any damage you may do to your atomizers or devices or any bodily injury you may sustain if you do this.

hehe...yeah...I double posted because I'm a dumbdumb

what is the reason for doing this rob? is it just for dripping?

 

[kingfatty]

thanks rob

was gonna ask the same thing, king. Just quicker wicking for drips, no soaking in?

 

[Terraphon]

well

Sometimes the 306 will start to get a burnt taste to it (the 510 will do this, too) and that's usually because the wick at the top is burning up, I believe. De-bridging the atomizer removes that burning taste and seems to increase the vapor output and throat hit.

At least that's my experience

 

[zereoue20]

Gotcha. Well definitely an easy fix to that problem

Thanks, Terraphon!

I've been considering this for a while with my 510s because I noticed they vape better if I drip the juice down the sides of the atomizer instead of through the drip tip. I just tried this on one of my 510s and it seems to be working great. The cup *did* pull about a third way up the tube but went back down with a light touch

Yes, that's exactly what I was talking about. They often pull up like that but will go back to their normal position with just a very light push.

I find that, for dripping, this is the way to go. It seems to take less juice to get a good response because it doesn't have to soak through the mesh on the bridge.

Also, with hotter burning 306 atomizers, this is a MUST because they'll give that nasty burning taste the first time you light them up.

thanks, I actually didn't realize my old volcano that I had was a 306, I didn't know what a 306 looked like! (yeah I didn't dig too far admittedly either) but this is awesome! thanks!
