I love my IO6s in my UFS, I already received some more 1.8s but I blew the 3.5 in a week (the 1.8 is still going strong!:laugh:) so maybe I'm just not an HV vaper.....:(

Ripple, my 3.5 HV i06 is still going strong and it is the Beta,,,,, somehow I think it must have gotten dry or it is just a fluke, these Atty's last longer then any other Atty I have used to date, as well as being pure Bliss of a vape

I got a question since we are on the I06 and drip tip subject. Does anyone know if the 306DCA with the expansion pack will fit the I06?

I have been trying to find some info on the fitting but haven't found anything conclusive yet.

It will not....the i06 is much larger than any 306, more like the size of a 510.

Not a chance! I have the expansion pack also but nothing even comes close.

That's a bummer. I guess I will have to sell my DCA before I even open it once I get it. I was really looking forward to it because the DCA is so awesome. I know I am going to like the I06 because I am a dripper and have dripped since I started vaping and going by what has been said between an I06 and the 510's I am used to using, I probably won't be using the 510's anymore.

I have a DCA, but really I see no reason for a DCA for this i06 product, once primed then ad 4-5 drops of liquid you net yourself about 15-20 good vapes, could be less for PG or in between for a mixture there of, but with those kinds of results why be using liquid that just keeps cycling in a DCA and burning and going though the Atty over and over, not what I would want to be re-vaping, I love the fact that you add 4 fresh drops of liquid to the i06 and vape your brains out, then add 4 more and do it again when that time comes. That's not putting down the DCA either, it's a good product for what it is and from what I've heard there are ones coming out for other Atty's then just the 306, back to the i06 this Atty just doesn't need a DCA, just my opinion, the i06 is good as is. This i06 is a drippers dream Atty !!!!

I think it is mainly for aesthetic purposes that I like the DCA so much, especially on a tube mod.

So the I06's don't leak as long as you don't over drip too much? I know some attys don't leak but they have a small margin, some leak no matter how good you try to keep track.

I have been bad with not vaping what I drip completely and then when I pick it up a little later I drip some more netting a little leakage.

There is a very small learning curve to using the I06, what's that saying, so easy a caveman can do it, I have been using mine with no leaking issues what so ever, there is also a super cool way to make them work in an empire drip shield, but really with only 4 drops of liquid and netting 15-20 vapes with NO leaking, really a DCA is not needed with the i06, my opinion only.

Also another cool little set up with these are those little SS rings you can put around the Ego threads if using an Ego Batt, makes it look really nice I use one myself, and if there was a drop of liquid to come out these little SS rings do a nice job at keeping it there and back down to the bottom of the Atty to vape it up again.

Below is an original Ego 650mAh Batt from Janty when they first came out, maybe a little over 2 yrs ago or so W/i06 attached, I will put this lil unit up against anything on the market with my i06 on it for vapor and flavor and put out as much flavor and vapor as anything out there Big batt Mods and HV included, hats off and cheers to my buddy Issac for putting this lil SOB of an Atty out there, it is just super and for a stealthy unit you can not get a better vape or much stealthier unless you go to a mini pen style 510 which I also use my i06 on at times, it's a super set up and 4 drops of liquid is all that's needed and will net you 3 times the drags of a real cigarette, no leaks, no pun intended ;-)

Hey y'all :)

My i06's came in Saturday, but didn't get them until yesterday. As soon as I got in, I primed one per Mwa's instructions, and began to vape.

All I can add to what everyone else has already said is..... Wow, just W0W! :vapor: I love them!

I ordered 2 and 2 tips. Will be ordering more.

Well done Isaac, well done! And thank you!

I agree 100% with what you wrote. I just got my shipment of 15 assorted io6s.
But the one thing I can't stand is the drip-tip. The silhouette is a little better than the delrin, but still, I can't stand the way they look or feel.
Of what might this drip shield setup you spoke of consist? (I have a couple Empire shields).

You could always try the standard 306 from Isaac....

The i06 may not need a DCA for you but I still can't wait for the i06DCA! I'd rather know that I don't have to worry about leaks and set the draw exactly how I want. When I'm sitting at home leaking isn't an issue, it's when I'm working and I drip 3-4 drops then get called away to take care of something before even taking a pull...they still leak. i think of the DCA as insurance. I know I can always slip my pv in my pocket and never think twice about it.

Hey Lax, i just cut the sleeve off a fusion(w/dremel), slid it over io6, slid dripsheild over, and attached a Ming that I drilled to attach feed tube to top feed a GLV3!! No airflow issues whatsoever!! Hope that helps!!

That's the learning curve with the i06 in my opinion, if your adding 3-4 drops and your leaking then you adding those drops a bit prematurely, and I have done this same thing, and many of us like to over drip, it's kind of like being greedy and adding more syrup to your pancakes when you already have more syrup on them then your ever gonna use already.

when I add 3-4 drops to my i06 I dont leak and that's because it's ready for those 3-4 drops. I dont care what Atty you use it will leak if you add enough liquid to it, however, getting the most mileage out of your liquids and adding when it truly needs it with the i06 I dont get a leak, this Atty is ahead of its time almost the way Issac has mastered the inner workings of liquid and air flow internals on this Atty, and I still to this day have not used an Atty that has netted me the amount of vapes out of 3-4 drops that this i06 nets me ( using a heavy VG liquid ). YMMV of course, and I'm also using this special little ring on my Ego threads which even if one drop came out of my i06 it would stay down around the connection of the batt, and if 2 drops came out, it will hold that extra drop with this ring im using in the pictures I posted earlier.

As for the DCA, the DCA will leak, as long as you have your adjustable air draw open and if you happen to get called away and put it in your pocket it can leak and will leak if enough liquid is in it, which by the way is almost impossible to tell exactly how much liquid is in the DCA ( unlike the i06 where you know you only have 3-4 drops in it max ) unless you loosen your DCA Atty from your ecig and close your adjustable air flow and take the time to do that every time you stop vaping it can leak, if your using an Ego or stick type ecig or anything if you lay it on its side or put it in our pocket for that matter the DCA can and will leak if it has excessive liquid in it.

Lastly it's perfectly OK if people feel that they need to spend the extra and use the DCA for this i06 set up if one comes out, I just dont need one for the i06, it's only my opinion and some others that it isn't necessarily needed with the i06. I do own a DCA and it does work nicely with the DCA Atty and other 306's and there is going to be other DCA models coming out for other types of Atty's as well from what I've heard and which I am looking forward too for 510/801 Atty's. What ever makes your vape a happy one is the only way to roll for sure.:2cool

As far as this i06 Mod your discussing, I came up with it some months back while Beta testing the i06, what (TAt_skull) is doing is close, but not exactly it, he is missing one very important step in his process, actually 2. You where actually a bit closer on your post back in that other thread when you said you where hoping to use the i06 silhouette drip tip with your Empire shield and this combo/set up runs like an i06 on steroids with no possible way of leaking no matter what :2cool:
