How long do your 801s last at 6V?

i just love 6Vs but i just lost 3 801 in the space of 3 weeks

You need to drip if you use 6 volts, Carts alone are not enough....
Always keep your attys wet..
Dont let the atty get too hot...
And Never drip on a wet atomizer .....

This is the advice I give to everyone that tries to use 6 volts. There is a learning curve , and you will go through a few atomizers before you perfect the art of 6 volts..
Ask questions, and be concious of your vaping habits.
I have lost 1 801 atty in the last 8 weeks.
Lost 0 901's and 0 510's

so you can get 2 months out of a 801 at 6V?

DSE801s don't seem to last for me at all at 5v or 6v. I prefer the Joye 302 or Kissbox atomizers at that voltage. I haven't had one of these die on me yet in the past 3 months. I also prefer the hit with these atties too. I'm sure people will disagree though.

Good advice about keeping the coil wet.
I use 5 volts from an old HP printer power supply, with a 5 volt 1.2 amp output, that I had laying around.

I have a bad habit of throwing my stuff around, instead of laying it down gently, and when you do that with a hot atomizer coil it's more apt to break.

An 801 atomizer usually lasts me about two weeks.
I occasionally use 6 volts but it's just a little strong for me.

hum.... what types of 801 are there out there?
ive only ever used the 801 from heavens gilft and the BE112

PureSmoker.com has 801's. A little pricey unless you buy in bulk, but I get better flavor from PS's then Beckys.

Interesting - I thought the PS ones were hi-bridge and didn't work well with carts?
