Flooding in Vmod XL Hybrid Atty

[stonedkirby]

How do you guys rec. I prevent flooding in the atty? or how to drain it without removing the bottle? It hasnt been a huge issue, I just am getting used to how much pressure to apply when squonking...is that right? Anyway.

First impressions on this thing are- its amazing. I've experienced no leaking, great flavor, and its very easy to use.

Thanks for any input!

I read this in another thread: Try this HH.357 feeding technique. Get all the juice back down into the bottle by sucking it back down with the squirsh and gently blowing into mouthpiece. Now tilt the Vmod about 90 degrees, i.e. level, and take a couple of healthy "dry" pulls, no power yet. Now start pulsing power as you draw until you start getting good vapor. Then immediately back off on the tilt enough so you don't flood it, and keep vaping. Raise and lower the XL somewhere between say 20 degrees short of level and 20 degrees over, so you control the feed. If you overdo it and get juice in the tip (and backing off from level is not enough), stand it up and recover the juice as before, then start over. This whole routine becomes second nature, after all, do you remember how hard it was to breathe right after you were born?

ok, I am reading the other threads and keep coming up with good info:



Two ways of fixing it if you do manage to flood.

One...just put it down and it will drain back into the bottle.

Two holding it up right just gently squirsh the bottle till you hear air flowing through the atty.

You found the right stuff tlynn.

It has been long debated on the squish, squash, squank techniques. Sure, one can use them all. But one of the things of beauty of the vmod is that you don't have to use any of them.

I squeeze until there's juice in the clear tip. Tilt it upright and puff away. There is no spoon. I meant flood. If it isn't an issue, it isn't happening. If it is an issue, you get no vapor for a lot of puffing and that is frustrating. Haven't had that problem with vapage gear.
