I'm not a big fan of PMMA tanks or post-less decks for that matter. But I have to try any thing that I think looks good Bottom line it out performs any other single coil atty I have.
The X Dream is about the same size as the V5, For me I'm still waiting for the E-mantle coating to go for a crap like the other squapes have done.
So far it hasn't happened, fingers crossed this ones different.

Thanks for the pic. From everything I've read today, it's a HUGE atomizer. That's what I get for believing these whiny bastages

I do have reservations about the latch thing set up though.

I liked Lemo 2 and used them regularly for single Ti coil builds. Tried KF5 but much too restrictive for my taste.

Lately I have been lazy and have just been using some Cubis tanks I bought dirt cheap a while back with 0.25ohm notch coils. Just been too busy to build and those crappy little Cubis tanks have a good performance/power ratio for on the go. Good enough until I get caught up & can devote more time to the hobby.

I have a Lemo 2 and think it's a bit more restrictive than my KF5's. The thing with the KF5, the size of the coil affects the airflow. I started using 3mm ID coils and it was a tight draw but when I moved to a 2.5mm ID coil, the airflow was increased.

Redid the curve? I use Ti, I had some issues with the SP1 updated to the DNA's.
So I never did them, Ti was working great so I thought why bother?
I lost my battery gauge with the SP1 update
Did they get that straightened out? Should I update my 200's to SP1/3?
Is that were SS works good now?

I do have reservations about the latch thing set up though.

The click is the coolest part of the X Dream The E-matle coating, IDK if it will last
It didn't on the old Squapes It would wear thin & the resistance would go nuts.
My X Dreams are about a few months old & no problems so far

Just rebuilt the Aromamizer with a 12 wrap 4mm ID 430ss coil. At 1.24Ω and 30w, it's giving me more flavor than the dual coils. A little higher than I expected so I might try a 8 wrap 4mm ID if battery life still sucks.

I still love my lemo2, but I also have a lot of love for my Serpent (not the mini). Fabulous single coil atty!

Perhaps that was my mistake, or the FT SMY clone was more restrictive. When I get some time, I'll play with them a bit more.

Too Far? Kind of a testament to the change of season.

Not really. I have 3 different versions and they're all the same. With a bigger coil, the airflow is restricted. Going from 3mm ID to a 2.5mm ID really improved the airflow on all 3 versions. Might be the wick size but I always push it away from the air hole on the deck on all my builds/wicks.

The KF5 has good flavor when doing lung hits. Not so much when doing MTL. The KM3 has good flavor doing MTL.

Back to the Aromamizer... The battery life isn't very good with the monster coil I built. Might just go back to a 6 wrap 3mm ID coil

Ok So I have a problem, My Battle Star 75 is discharging on it's own
If you's recall I had a battery problem with the OG BS, now with the DNA 75 it still persists
I charged it fully & left it with an atty on, after 10 hours it was down 10% with out being used at all.
I did the same with no atty, same results.
So it's discharging the batteries on it's own for reasons I don't know
With both the chips, the OG crap it came with & the DNA75
The mod works perfect besides the discharge problem.
I don't know much about electrical problems & don't even know were to start looking for a problem, let alone a fix.
Can anyone stear me in the rite direction to find this issue?

Do you have DMM? You can check the draw directly from the battery and then other places within the mod (510 ground and pos, board mount, etc).

Or just try to isolate anywhere the positive connection could contact a ground.

 

[Steamer861]

Idk. Wat a dmm. Is
The board. Is mounted. To the battery sled. It's All plastic.
I have. Basic tools. Like. A multi. Meter. That's. about it
Can. E -scribe. Do any thing. In this situation?

 

[KTMRider]

DMM = Digital MultiMeter

Without looking at the mod, I can't help more. There's a contact between the pos and neg somewhere. Since you changed the board, I'm gonna guess it's the 510. Can you swap out the 510?

I don't think so
It's a simple 510 that just slips into a slot in the case.
So with a Multi meter, can I find the draw if it's in the 510?
Can I put the leads on the 510 & determine there is a draw?

 

[Steamer861]

Ok So I put a multi meter on the 510, there is a voltage of .6 volts running thru it
I tried other mods I have & they read 0 or really low like .03 to .06 so. it's probably a problem in the 510?
Is it safe to assume this?

 

[awsum140]

Disconnect the 510 and see if the discharge continues. If it does, there's another problem somewhere. If it doesn't the problem is in the 510.
