Got an A7

[Thrasher]

Had it a few days now and dig the vape production a lot! its well made for a cheapo rba, and like that it's SS not plated, one thing I don't care for is the draw, a little to airy and open for me, sooooo. anyone have any suggestions for something similar with a little tighter draw? no cheap plating please....


EDIT: ahhh nvrmind think im gonna quit playing with this cheap crap and get a cobra,zap or something similar

WAIT.. The A7 in my opinion is AWESOME... I agree the draw is too airy.. all you have to do, is get a tooth pick (the round ones), put it in the side hole and break the tip so you can block one of the air holes... Vapes like a champ !

Not only break off the tip but then give it a quick shot of some juice and it should swell to fill the void quite well! That, or tape always works!

A7 is up to par with the expensive drippers. Not cheap my any means

Plug the hole with JB Weld and re-drill it.

I use my A7 on a VW bottomfed box. It's not too airy if you hit 7-wrap coils of 34awg NiChrome with 10watts lol. This A7 is a game-ender for me. No more playing which atty/carto is best. I use aforementioned wire and Nextel ceramic wick. It's awesome and stuff.

I'm used to the airy draw and prefer it now but one piece of advice I was given elsewhere was to use some aluminium tape and make a hole to suite.

Lots of people will tape the hole and then increase the size until they find their sweet spot.

I just tried the toothpick fix and it works great. Nice, simple modification.

The air holes on the bottom seem too small to insert any type of toothpick tip in there. I will, however, try the aluminum tape.

The holes are located just above the treads of the A-7's 510 connector, one on each side. Are these the hole(s) that you find too small?
You must have some pretty big tooth picks

i did the toothpick thing a few weeks ago, worked great but never use it lol

I've posted this pic in a couple of other threads but just in case you didn't see it here it is, I think the wick holds as much liquid as the cup.
I have figured out how to use my Nextel XC-116 but what am I going to do with the other 2' 11"? That piece may last longer than me

hey Trasher, for a tight draw try this one: MOV Phoenix Rebuildable Atomizer | Cheapest Rebuildable Atomizer on the market!

got one of those, just made the hole a tiny bit bigger (not even by drilling, just poking around with it with a piece from a lens repair kit i had around)

try these things with SS Mesh, you'll see what I mean of genesis vs phoenix from other posts we've talked about
