Enjoy!
CRAZY SIDE STORY:
I mention in the video that these things hold a LOT of juice. I took out the 3.5 ohm atty today. I don't tend to use higher voltages too often but I like them from time to time. Tried to blow the primer out of the atty, found none. Dripped three drops of juice in, waited for it to soak up, then stuck it on my ProVari at 4.0v, which I know is low for a 3.5 but I wanted to gently get it going. BURNT burnt burnt, dry dry dry. Put in two more drops. Same thing. Two more, same thing. Are you counting? That's 7.
At that point, I thought... that is a lot of juice. I figured I could blow some out and everything would still be pretty wet and give it a go from there. Blew on the atty, not a drop of juice came out. Tried again, nothing. So with seven drops of juice on the atty I put it back on. I was getting actually pretty frustrated and began to think the atty was basically unusable as it was since I couldn't seem to get it going and the wick may have already burnt. (Side not: would be hard to dewick these.) I said screw it, dripped in 5 more drops to make 12 and cranked it up to 5.0v and figured, if this is terrible, I'll just throw it away and who well 8 bucks down the drain.
12 drops of juice in, 5.0v and bam! I got 6-7 huge, plumey flavorful drags, absolutely no gurgle or signs of overfilling/leaking. From there on I continued on to a 3-4 drop routine (I use an extra drop or two at a time on these.)
My conclusion is twofold: a) these atties do indeed hold a whole heaping ton of juice and b) they seem to be virtually leakproof. This also may make them extremely difficult to clean; I don't know that yet as I am enjoying the honeymoon period with all of these because at the moment they are just flat-out unparalleled awesome. I will, however, update with durability and cleaning and all of that longer-term impression stuff.
Enjoy!
