Found a Hybrid Dripper!

[unloaded]

I've been wanting something like this for a while, when I finally became aware of this model it was out of stock everywhere. Finally caught them in stock and got one ordered last night. I was expecting to find one for 18mm batteries but this one uses 14500's which I think is even better. I'll post pics and results when it comes in. I've heard good things about the Fatty atty which is built on it. Forgot to mention its called The Novice by Chris Creations. Here's where I got it and a video for it, more like a commercial.

If anybody here has experience with these let me know what you think of it.

I'd be more interested if they'd have:

Made it for 18mm batteries

Incorporated a better atty design.
The Fatty is OK, the fatty 2 is better and they'd all be better with a different air hole.... Especially the 2.

Haven't got it yet, tracking says "Expected delivery by June 6" I'm hoping it gets here sooner.

 

[MaNurse]

i have a feeling we're probably going to get it in around the same time. haha

I was all about it til I seen that it was for 14xxx batteries and the video was just stupid

Tracking says Out forDelivery! w00t! My wife is probably gonna hand it to me along with divorce papers. I've got a lot of packages lately.

to me it seems their prices are quite high for most things, and that makes me think this may be a china build of something with who knows what quality. I am very interested to see what your thoughts are after hands on with it. a hybrid dripper seems rather cool

Chris Creations is definitely NOT China built.

CC is good stuff... I just hate the design of the Fatty Airhole.

review it for us!

When it says 14xxx, its going to fit a 14650 just fine? All the other videos I've seen just use the 14500s... Also kinda wierd that you gotta put the battery nipple side down.

Looks like a brushed finish too. I might want to polish some of it up and go for a 2 tone look.

Well it's here, and gotta say I'm loving it. I didn't catch the part about nipple down, couldn't get it to fire so I put a smaller oring on the switch and its working fine. I've got Nextel in it with 29g wire and its hitting like a beast. Love the size and feel of it, and the draw is perfect for me. I prefer the slit to a larger round hole. Here it is with my other mods for a size comparison. Gotta go shopping I'll post a shot of the coil later tonight.

Looks great. I'll post mine when I get it maybe thursday

Kinda wanna find myself a tru flow drip tip for it though

I started having some misfires so I switched back to original oring and flipped the battery like its supposed to be. Didn't really help, I still had to spin the button to find good contact. I wound up taking the switch apart, there was some type of locktite on the threads of the screw add pooled in the button where the spring touches. I removed all of it and flipped the spring upside down. It's firing every time now but the spring is a lot stiffer. I'm gonna replace the screw with a brass one and get a better and lighter spring. The screw seems to be 5-40 threads, which I don't have. I don't think this is a common issue, at least I haven't seen any mention of it. I think it just got a little too much locktite when it was put together. It might have even been super glue, it was clear and didn't have the usual smell of locktite. I'm still really impressed with it, best $100 I've spent in a while.

what gauge wire and type of wick are you currently using? how's battlife, never vaped from a 14xxx.

Hi I got one of these today & am loving it. I did 4 loops of 32g on 3mm. It also took me a while to put the battery the right way up. It is firing well & the vapour production is amazing. The battery life is ok a few hours. All in all a big thumbs up.
