Fogger V4!!

[Claviger]

@Tbev-Agree on the "M" shaped wick build vs the "U" shape. Slightly M shape gives a bit more cotton for the coil to draw from without have to move fluid while vaping like the U shape does, works much better. At .6 ohms I get no dry hits once I added a touch more cotton and only half filled the vertical portion of the channel. That is doing usually 5-7 back to back pulls about 4-5 seconds long with a minute or two rest between cycles.

Someone requested some pics vs a KFL:

I just got my Fogger V4.2 from FT. The tank base ring unscrews (is removable), comes with copper 510 pin/screw, and has a loose afc ring that does not have a hole in it (and covers the hole partially when opened all the way up).

In Todd's review - he has the V4.1 and his tank base ring unscrews. His has holes in the afc ring and has a steel 510 center pin.

Thanks Claviger. Good to see its approximately the same length as a KFL.

Flavor-wise, what ohm are you guys getting the best flavor? I usually have my KFL to .5 so I'll prob start out with that.

I like my gennys that low but I gotta say I threw a super fast hurried build on that ohmd out @1 ohm and it hits great, better than any kf build, and it tastes like I'm drinking juice it's so dense and flavorful.

Agree on the great flavor. From 0.8-1.0 I get fantastic flavor with good size clouds. The .5, .6 builds I run do bigger clouds faster, with slightly muted flavor but still fantastic. The only time I notice it being muted at all is if I use my dripper then follow it up with a Fv4 pull. Nothing compares to a .2 ohm dripper though so really, it isn't shocking there is less from the Fv4 in that instance

Also, not sure why, but my Fv4 at .5 puts out clouds equal to my IGO W5 which is a dual coil at .2 ohms and drilled out to 7/64ths on both holes.... crazyness.

Any chance someone could post a guide on how to wick a dual vertical coil on a fogger v4?

What wire did you use? And at what wattage are you vaping? I'd like to improve my build but there are so many parameters!

While I'm not trying to ring my own bell I consider myself an experienced builder. That said I can now tell you that I haven't put this much this much effort into an atty since Fogger V1.
I have two of these, the first one I setup as a lung hitter with the only modification being to enlarge the holes on the air ring (and and a 10 x 1 mm o-ring)This one work quite well.
On the second one I reduced the air hole on the deck to 1.2 mm with the idea of vaping Kayfun but dual coils, that just didn't happen no matter how or what I did.
# 2 is going back to 2 mm air holes on the deck next time I fell like fooling with it some more.
Also I intend to bevel that positive post block on it's top edges so to make it easier to get the coil just about sitting on the air holes ( 1 mm ). Darn I wish it wasn't brass.
I went ahead and removed the 1.2 mm draw tube and just left off the air ring.
All is well with both ... now

 

[the4thpower3]

dwcraig1 - what draw tube?

I drilled my air holes out to 7/64" - I also drilled holes straight through the afc ring (mine didn't come with holes).
The 7/64" holes do not draw like 7/64" holes on a dripper.

I didn't have much of problem building my coils close to the deck.

I ordered a V4 on FleaBay. After shipping the seller emails me and says they messed up and it's a V2 so he is taking it back. So now I need a V4 and see this: Fogger v4+ / Fogger v4+ Atomizer / Fogger v4+ RBA Dual Coil Tank It's supposed to be a new model with a fixed air control ring and stuff. I see it being sold "on reserve" other places using Google, so I think it is something new. I'm not sure if Frog in Fog seller is in USA or China. Does anyone have a link where I can buy the newest Fogger?

dwcraig1 - what draw tube?

I added two 1.2 mm tubes to the holes in the top of the deck 'cause otherwise these are lung hitters ans I was trying to make one of mine more "normal"
I cut a 1.2 mm draw tube in half and inserted them into the top of the deck. I did something similar (1.5 mm) with my Oddy2 Kayfun conversion kits. See below.

So......

I found my last disposable lighter and it still had some fluid left in it.

Used a couple of large angled pliers and my tusty leatherman tool.

With the angled pliers holding down on the 510, I heated up the skirt above the AFCring, for 7-8 minutes.
Then still holding the 510, I used the leatherman to pull the skirt counter clockwise untill it finaly snapped and unscrewed.

There was no silicon lockthigt or anything like that. On closer inspection of the threads I found small/tiny metal fragments, witch are most likely leftover from machining of the threads.

I tried to take a photo of it, but my GalaxyS2 doesnt fokus on the threads.

 

[Claviger]

By snapped, did it break or just come loose with a snap?


Also, someone asked about my builds. I use .3mm Kanthal (I think that is 28 gauge), and just increase/decrease the number of wraps. I use the little blue screw drivers that come with lots of clone atties to wrap on Perfect size for me.

6 wraps per coil this method gives me 0.69 ohms.

So now I need a V4 and see this: Fogger v4+ / Fogger v4+ Atomizer / Fogger v4+ RBA Dual Coil Tank

That looks exactly like a Fogger V4

Also, someone asked about my builds. I use .3mm Kanthal (I think that is 28 gauge)

Thanks for the info. That's what I use too, 0.3mm comes out to 28.58AGW and is a metric only wire I guess.

@Claviger

It became loose with a snap.

 

[Claviger]

@Sinnagatggen - Lucky you

For everyone else, I have found a couple of tricks with the Fv4, doing my first vape vid later today will link it here. It will be a tutorial on a couple of points about the Fv4. One I won't make you wait for: Don't try down in the .2 or .3 range, the space between your coil and the insulator sandwiched between them is not healthy lol

 

[SavePaperVapor]

I got what is supposedly a Fogger v4 but there are no air holes in the knurled ring. Instead, the knurled ring is on threads and goes up and down on threads revealing more or less air hole. Did I get hosed? It performs well though, so no huge deal.

 

[sinnataggen]

@SavePaperVapor

You got the V4+ version.
The regular one does not have the threaded airflow ring, and the 510 screw is stainless steel not copper.

Awesome. Works like a champ. I cant wait until my Ranger mod comes in so I can throw some higher wattage at it. I couldn't quite get a coil setup above 1 ohm. I only gave it 3 tries and couldn't resist vaping it so now it sits on a mech. lol

 

[dwcraig1]

Both Fogger v4's working well now
