So we all know the Fogger V2 can be great but it has to be correct, let's see who's got the best build, and everything that works well, with specific information. Pics n tech details appreciated.

With our without Oring on chimney..
Silica, ecowool, cotton.... Sizes, cotton lose our tight....

Everything is important when it comes to this build.
We've all talked about it now let's get the real info together.

I've been building mine with vertical nano coils ( it's a little bit of a pain to get them connected ) then lightly packing it with cotton so they are sort of like a giant carto except with better flavor. I'm using 12 raps of 28 gauge around a large paper clip they're coming out between 1.5 - 1.8 Ω and working pretty darn good

I'm having good results with vertical micro coil 1/16 ID , 30 ga Kanthal, 10 wraps, 1.5 - 1.9 Ohm, loosely wrapped with cotton to top of coil. Cotton extends to bottom of well and fills well. Cotton just enters juice slots, does not stick out of slots, good wicking, no dry hits. Getting lots of vapor, good taste, and excellent longevity (15-20) tanks.

p.s. No "O" ring under chimney, no leaking. Fill through fill screw after closing air adj. Reopen after filled and screw is back in place.

I've put a couple builds then basically built a cotton ball with a 1. 7 ohm 30 ga. Coil inside flush on the slots but not sticking out and no o ring... Leaks like MF. GETTING ready to run it over with my forklift...


Someone please help I guess it's that hard and your just that good, and we need some pics.

I just received mine and did a quick 28g 14 wraps 1.4ohms nano coil cotton protuding out with oring on top. Without the oring it was gurgling. I guess i need to use a bit more cotton on the sides. It works no leaks but i do get dry hits after 5 hits. I see air bubbles on one end. Once it gets dry i close the air holes and prime it and it vapes okay.

Need to read more on everyone's builds i just did this first try without instructions. At least it works and i get to test it out right away.

I have been hitting it at about 80 percent satisfaction all day long I built a1.7 ohm coil w 30ga and packed it with cotton up to but not protruding the wick holes... Basically made a huge carto tank of of it, I have a video of it hitting, I will put that together with a video of me taking it apart and link it, I'm really busy but I'll do it ASAP.
Here are some pictures, I've gone through 3 tanks now and I am pretty happy with it.

I'm not having luck with my cotton builds. I tried thing thinning the cotton but after a while the cotton slips inside the juice slot. I then tried more cotton so it touches the glass tank and i get dry hits. it gurgles and leak or dry hits for my builds. I been using a 28g nano coil.

Im going to try a bigger coil and more wick. I lost a oring and broke one so im just going to setup my next one without it. Another thing i read here is to try putting cotton under the coil to soak up more juice. Its hard to gauge the right amount of cotton with rolled cotton or cotton balls because it's not consistent.

Is there a video on a good cotton build on youtube? I don't have silica, xc or ekowool just cotton.

Ill give this a try. Mine gurgled like crazy when i didn't have the wick protruding out the wick hole but i didn't stuff the bottom. I don't see your pics btw

I've hit a build which works, and have built it on three different foggers at least 3 times apiece...

Roughly speaking: 28g, about 8 wraps, somewhere around a 1/8" inner diameter (I'm using an allen wrench as my wraparound, can't recall what the specific sizing is, it's metric...); I fold one leg back along the coil and then out, so I end up with both legs coming out from the top of the coil. I mount it vertically, wrapping the legs around the loosened screws - I don't bother with the holes - and then pack, and pretty seriously pack - it's not loose by any means - cotton around the coil. I wet the cotton, and make sure it doesn't extend over the top of the coil (the coil's tight, btw - no spacing between turns). I have a fairly beefy o-ring between the chimney and the build deck, I never take that off - no reason to, I don't have anything extending out of the wick holes.

And that's pretty much it. I have added an o-ring, cut in half, in the base to prevent shorting (which was a problem before I did this). I vape either as-vg-as-possibile or 80%vg, so that could be a factor, but.. I end up with a easy draw, lots of vapor, no gurgling, and no dry hits. Reproducible over and over and over...

One of my foggers is pretty much empty, so I'll post picks of a rebuild when I wake after work tomorrow - that'll be in the 4pm EST timeframe, best I can do =)

HTH.

PS: Sorry it's not a nano-coil, I tried that, but with the gunker juices I vape, they get clogged in no time flat. Having the wide-bore coil was the only way to make it work sensibly. Also, I'm 90% that the non-standard o-rings I'm using aren't a requirement; I just got tired of the supplied rings snapping. They should work fine as well.

Hey tbex your tip worked. Now it doesn't gurgle. Initially i had too much cotton blocking too much of the juice holes with the wick touching the glass tank. This caused wicking problems and having to close the afc and prime the wick which i wasn't going to do every 2 hits. So i clipped the ends, not all of it, left a tiny bit of cotton sticking out (probably not necessary) and making sure there's a little space for juice to get in by thinning the wick just a little.

Now no gurgles instead i hear the coil cracking there's enough juice flow where i don't need to prime it. Without the extra cotton under the wick and around the airhole i guess it over wicks, floods the chamber and blocks the airflow causing gurgling.

I hope the next time i could get the bottom wick down in one try.

The flavor is okay similar to my gennies, i had higher expectations but i get clouds of vapor. Maybe as i get better with my coils, coil placement, and wicking, i hope flavor can be improved

I do want to try a different wick instead of cotton for less maintenance. Not sure what i should get, xc, silica, ekowool.

Try making an "O-Ring" if you will, of cotton around the bottom of the well.. Around coil, touching the holes to wick from.
The are no videos on YouTube of the fogger that I've found.
