Fountain V2 Bottom Feeder: Squonk your Atty, not your Mod!

[Spencer87]

I actually just bought one because of this post. All because @TheWestPole put me on to this thread. I now think its a conspiracy. He didnt need the thread moved, he just wanted me to buy one.

Costing me money here dude...lol Hopefully its decent. reviews look all right. Like most of my other atties, Ill probably use it once and then forget about it. Its too bad it doesnt come with spare bottles

You bet, man. I aim to corrupt!

Yeah, the spare bottles. Haven't found them yet but I'm looking.

The one I ordered from focalecig came with an extra bottle and glass section - not sure if this is standard or I just got lucky though.

Hmmm. Was it the one that ships from Germany? The box mine came with had no room for an extra bottle. Did come with extra glass though.

It was the 12 dollar one - not sure where that one ships from.

China, I thought, same as me.

Well my love/like affair with my Fountain has ended. Young man working at the Deli where I pick up food, really wanted it, and I really wanted my large roastbeef and cheese, with fries and fried cheese sticks for free, so we did a swap

It was very tasty by the way

I bet I could of got a free soda in the deal too, but my old brain doesn't think as fast anymore.

Though you must be getting serious with Aromamizer RDTA.

LOL yeah, after adding another juice hole in the base, and enlarging the stock 4 holes, i get some incredible dripping experience vapes from the Aromamizer RDTA. I really don't know how that thing pumps the flavor like it does, but it is really impressive. Should have the Bellus anyday now will be interesting to see how it does, but the bellus still has to wick up the deck, so im not sure if it can beat the Aromamizer where the wick sits in shallow pool.

On the Aromamizer you're wicking so the wick ends all "stand" on the surface of the deck, more or less 90 degrees to it? That's what I'm imagining, and it's the only thing that would account for more efficient and active wicking: all those fiber ends spread out over a bigger area, like a tree with a huge root system. Have you tried verticals on it yet? A lot of praise out there for that build on that atty.

All I'm expecting from Bellus (made the mistake of pre-ordering it) is a Goliath V2 vape (excellent) with top fill and some possible benefit from the side air.

Besides the Fountain, a different animal, the RTA that has surprised me the most lately is the Goblin Mini. Incredibly good. Small chambers and short chimneys do have the ability to intensify the vapor. Really delivers there.

I haven't tried vertical coils yet, because I reworked the deck for better performance with horizontals that are easier to wick in coils. I really think the reason the masses seem to say the verticals are best on that tank is because the wick lays in between those deck feeding holes un blocked, making for very unrestricted juice flow, when you build that deck horizontal the wick tails usually come down directly on those disc holes for the juice pool restricting flow.

I just received the one from Focal that shipped from Germany.. It has an extra bottle.

Very nice. Details please on the parts you used for the upper chamber/top cap assembly. Or could this be the authentic none of us had heard of?

Did it come in the atty box, or loose in the package? If loose, maybe I threw mine out by mistake.

Point taken about verticals, also about the pic, @wabah58. Still not convinced though. If you had a tank with vacuum built up and no wicks the juice wouldn't feed up into the juice well. Wicks provide the pull against the vacuum.

Yes this the authentic rematty top cap. Only the cap tho...lol
With some thick o-rings it fitted perfectly
Derringer top cap fit too if you like side air flow without afc

Really, Derringer fits? Also with thicker o-rings, I suppose. I considered Derringer and thought that the ID was 1mm too big, as with most drippers out there.

Anyway, one would have to like the max draw because there would be no adjustment. I'm doing a few more with PC, different styles. At least with those I can pick the draw I like best.

 

[Subohmies]

Yup they do....just need to play around withe the rite o-rings
Derringer was the 1st top cap that I use but then decided to swap it to top afc
Derringer needs a thinner oring than the rematty

Good to know.
