OK, I must apologize for being impatient. But I just got my i7 atty and I really want to use it, but there's this problem... is juice supposed to leak out of the hole? I fully consider I am doing something wrong, but I can't imagine what I should do differently. I take it, screw it on, as I would any other atty, gots the two 3.7V batts in the GGTS with sleeve, drip in the cap, a couple of puffs are delightful and then... juice flood from the hole.

:?: Am I supposed to be doing something differently?

TIA. Like I said. Impatient!

I always drip 5 drops in my i7. If you're getting liquid out of the breather hole, it's flooded. Blow out the atty from the battery side, drip 4-5 drops and it should be good to go.

Not all atties are equal and some are more prone to flooding than others. See how many drops works for your specific atty without flooding.

You'll be re-dripping a LOT if you're only using two drops.

Sounds to me like you got a crappy easily flooded i7. Not much you can do other than use less drops and drip more often.

Seems that way to me, too. Kinda disappointed. I thought these were going to be *the* solution at 7.4V. I also got an i6 so maybe that will have better results. Waiting for the 3V jiggers to finish charging.

Thanks, boomboom.

critter my friend, those atties are made for AFS. The story is this:

I ordered from China atomizers with specific holes and they send me the wrong stuff so I had to open my holes again. That means that those atomizers are exellent for AFS but maybe they are not good for dripping. I was not thiniking of dripping when I made the holes.

I thought that you had an AFS and I was trying to figure what you were doing wrong but you just havent an AFS.:)

Oh. Well, that makes sense, imeo. I had thought they would work like other atties, just at 7.4V. Thanks for clarifying!

Yes, they supposed to work like this critter as the previous iatties that worked with and without AFS, and I had said that on forum before I ordered them but unfotunately China will stay always China
