An other word: We've been using Fogger 5.0 long before it came out:

A few more things i should note about the v5
The overall size is taller than the 4.3 and 4.1
Holds less juice than the 4.1 more than the 4.3
Cant fill it with a standard glass dropper or plastic tip juice bottle ( glad i had a couple needle tip bottles lying around)

I think tool-less posts are an excellent idea...provided they work. Glad there is a backup if they don't.
I think of your settings coils you've got tools out, making a sihtty connection isn't cool just bc you don't have to use the screwdriver that's already in your hand. Nobody's swapping coils out on the bus. . . And even if they were they would have to wrap the coils on something ...
Man, you've got those exact words right out of my mouth. You just type faster LOL
Yeah, I don't really get those sprung terminals. I'm sure I wouldn't use them. I could cut the heads off my terminal screws and wouldn't miss them: I've got tanks that've had the same build in them for over a year!
edit: but I'll definitely give them a try...before I throw them away, LOL

I don't know, I'll bet AMD has built a few in his truck, but that's just a guess. On the other hand he's skilled enough and machinist enough to be able to use a screwdriver, blindfolded, facing backward in a stiff north wind.
Anyone have any idea where I could pick up more drip tips like the big one that comes with a Big Fogger? (Found some on flea bay)

Scrubbed down and ready to build. Few more pieces as you can see.

So on to the spring post this is where things got interesting
I built it with 28g 7 wrap around 3mm and everything was good. Well not really!!!!!!

After i built it and snipped the leads I threw it on the mod and fired it up not too bad but ive built this type of setup and it wasnt right. So i threw it on the ohm meter and sure enough it was reading 1.0-4.6. I knew something was up and usually it does that crap when the leads arent tight enough. I knew the biggest fault of the v5 was going to be those stupid spring posts. After 45 miniutes and alot of frustration trying to figure where to go from there hoping not to have to break out the tap and die set I took the coils off and started messing with sping post.
Ahhhhh they unscrew!!!!!! Then i remembered in that extra bag of goodies yi loong sent with the fogger there were two screws and it clicked in my head that those have to be for the post and yesss siiiir they were. I put the screws in and built some new coils with 28g 7 wrap but this time around 2mm which came out to .5ohm little low but i knew i was home free.

Nice review of the Fogger V5. Thanks for posting it and all the great pictures!
Those posts were the only thing holding me back from jumping on the bandwagon. Nice to see the v5 is actually an AMD fogger v4.3.0.0.1 
I knew you were on to something AMD

YiLoong engineers are definitely reading our thread
I think it's great that they are, I think that it's up to us to come up with the next best thing!
Heya tbev. I agree a crappy connection is not cool at all and would make them useless. But while I don't like buses, I have done coil rebuilds on a ship.
Also I don't use screwdrivers or drill bits to wrap my coils on and lately I'm not even using coils. So provided these push posts work, I won't need a screwdriver to fill or rebuild. I'll just need to carry some rayon and donuts when I go on a trip. And I am grateful for everything I don't have to carry.
Yeah I would think doughnuts would be the only exception, how do you like them? How do they compare to a build that's the same res? Pics?

I really dig the donuts. I tried them on the big fogger and Kaiser and have used them since. They last a month or more where as I find my coils lasted about 10 days before I'd have to rebuild. I find cleaning the donuts and getting wicking off them easier than coils. With coils I usually end up bending the coils and throwing them out. But not so on the donuts, I reuse them. And on the big I leave them in place when rewicking and cleaning. Vape is just as good if not better since getting juice flow to both sides of the discs maximizes surface area producing vapor. Interestingly the Kaiser with a single disc is throwing as much vapor as the big with a dual. I think its because the cup design on the Kaiser has the juice channels in line with the heating element where as on foggers and kayfun the decks are raised and wick length is longer. I adjust power to get the same wet dense vape experience I'm looking for on every setup I try. I find the Kaiser is really flowing a lot more juice for me and I can put as much power to it as a dual setup on the big and get the same vape experience. I haven't tried the flat wire AMD uses yet but that looks like it should produce even more surface area. Right now I just really enjoy vaping the donuts with rayon and they're easy for me. I got packages of the 1.25 to 1.5 so duals on the big are around .6. And I don't have to torch the donuts like I do the Kanthal. The only downside I can see with the donuts is they cost more. Not sure if I'll use donuts on the V5 or coils, won't know till I get it and look at it but if they'll fit, I'm going with donuts.
I watched couple of Youtube videos and decided to skip the Donut: Maybe I shouldn't have.
Very cool I think in going to give them a shot for my dad when I get a chance.. he's running a provari so I need them to net 1.4ish
Mmmm well I didn't watch the whole thing but I see he packed cotton on only one side of the donut, he's halving the surface area producing vapor. I do both sides. Sometimes using a toothpick to poke a hole in the middle of the wicking through the ring. He is right the donuts take a little longer to warm up but for me it works out great since I like a wet cool dense vape.

My first fogger v4 arrived today, the most recent version. Since it's going on my VTR (sound familiar, awsum?), I wrapped 30 gauge around some 14 gauge needles, about 8 wraps each, and it came out to 1.2 ohms. Wicked with rayon, and on the VTR it went for the maiden voyage.
At 15 watts, it was pretty nice! We've barely had time to get acquainted, but it's been good so far. I'm sure I'll need to learn to build it well (the coils didn't really light up evenly but I was in a hurry), but it's held up so far. No leaking yet, no dry hits, no machine oil taste; only positives.
Time will tell, but it seems like a keeper!
