It's good, but not quite as good as properly built V4

Good to know...I was about to pull the trigger for $30!!!

Off Topic: I want to get in on one of the new upcoming 50W Pioneer4You SX330 iPV Boxmod VIDEO through a coop. I don't have access to that thread...Need the vouch-ing if anyone is willing? or if anyone knows where a reliable coop is, I would be I would appreciate the info through a PM.

Again, sorry for the off topic.

Alright, so here's where I stopped, after draining it to the point of near dry hitting once. All in all, probably around 2-3 ml of liquid over the past 3.5 hours.

Here is the build after I stripped it down.

The vapor production and density is still lower than my 1.5 ohm iClear 30S running on the same setup with equivalent draw time, which I would not expect, and way less than my IGO-W, which I would still expect, even though the builds are really close to each other. It's also pretty harsh, and is making me cough, and I'm not sure what that's coming from and I've never had that experience vaping before even with dry hits on silica, cotton, and rayon. The flavor is still decently good. Maybe I'm just expecting it to put out more vapor than it should, but from every video I've seen of it, it's nowhere close.

I might be wrong, but it sounds to me that you are dealing with an airflow problem. Because of the symptoms you described. If you take your IGO-W and purposely place the top cap in a wrong way. You know, where your airholes are not in front of your coils. You will get the same problem: Harsh, not enough vapor, too much flavor and coughing.
I would check the airflow if everything else was already checked.
Just a thought.

I'd agree with AMD, the only thing I can see but it's prolly just the pics, it's that the coil on the bottom in the pic, could be shorting out on the block, the lead from the neg, and also, in the middle of the coil, you can see its, also darker in the middle than the other coil, but that would also be due to Airflow, maybe one side, the bottom in the pic, is plugged up, maybe some crap in there from manufacturer, all pretty far fetched tho, I'm assuming your not using a dead battery...

I see what you're talking about, but even with my IGO-W, I only get some harshness and minimized vapor, but it's nowhere near as bad as the Fogger. How tight should the draw be? The holes on the build area are 7/64in, but the bottom air holes are 5/64in... is this regular or did someone screw mine up? It seems odd to have the side holes and the top holes be a different size...

Hey trucker, how's that aga stand up against the Fv4?

I'm sure you were referring to my AQGA-T7. I have a different build in it now. I have two vertical coils: One directly above the other and both above the airhole. The wick is a cotton cloud all around the coils but not in them. It is like a self propelled vapor wind tunnel.
It is right in the middle between Kayfun and Fogger V4. Kind of like Llama between Alpaca and Camel. :toast:
But I also got AGA-T6. Upside down Genesis tank. That thing is amazing.

I knew they were close, but I made damn sure before and after wicking that they had a good gap so they didn't short.

Lol, no. the lowest my batteries ever get is down to 3.5v and then it's back to the charger.

Oh, and there was something in the airflow channels, because when I was first checking the width of the top holes, the 7/64 bit only went a quarter of the way down..., but it still didn't really help the airflow at all. But seriously, 5/64 on sides, 7/64 on top?

Lots of people pulled junk out of their air passages, I'd keep looking, see if you can tell if your getting even flow by plugging one at a time and suck/blow, if one hole in plugged that would explain why one side is darker and all the rest of your symptoms.

I figured you know what's up with batteries, just wanted to rule it out.

Besides the inconsistencies in the bottom and top airhole sizes, I also spotted this.

Orange hole is 7/64, red arrow points to something that's the exact diameter of the paperclip below (with 5/64 drill bit for comparison)

It looks to me as though they didn't drill it all the way through. I'm wondering two things. 1) Are they all like this? Anyone willing to strip theirs down and check it out? And 2) Should I go pick up some carbide drill bits tomorrow?

I think you found where your problem is! Congrats.
It is a burr from drilling or metal shavings left over.
You do not need a carbide drill bit to remove it.

It's YiLoong and their quality control...

Oh, it's not a burr or shavings, it's where the tip of the bit drilled and they pulled it before it went through the whole way. Bad machinist. I don't know how thick it is, but my pretty dull 7/64 bit didn't do jack to it. I've run compressed air through it, tried to pull it out with my dental picks, and tried to drill it. Still looks the same as the picture.

Here is what I would do if I were you:
1. Without any wick or e-liquid. Seal the air intake on both sides. Any which way you want. (AFC, O-ring or both)
2. Dip the whole unit in a glass of water. Leave the mouth piece above the water. Use a longer drip tip.
3. Blow into the drip tip hard. You should not see any bubbles if the unit is not leaking any where.
4. Open your airflow.
5. Blow again, but ever so slightly this time.
6. You should see two steady streams of bubbles on both sides. Your airflow is working.
