Best "306" I've used. Yes, I'm a picky person. Placed an order for the 2.5ohm io6 about 4 days ago, and been vaping on it for about 4 hours now. Draw is perfect. Smooth and strong at every voltage on the ProVari. Have tried almost every 306 style atty out there...cisco's, joye's, smoktech's, and the really nice hh357. There's no comparison to this one. The flavors come out like no other. Haven't had a "dry" or harsh hit yet. I'm tasting new aspects to my favorite juices above the 5v point. It knocked me back at 5.8v. My only gripe is that I would prefer a larger opening for the drip-tip, as I really luv the cherryvape cannon's. But the drip-tip is long enough and doesn't transfer heat to my lips/no leakage whatsoever, as it is a tight fit. In terms of longevity, I'll be thrilled if it lasts anywhere over 3 weeks. Wish all vapers' out there had a chance to try one of these...well done Isaac, well done.

I'm with ya 1000%!!! It's been about 28 hours with my first i06 and I'm smitten :wub: 1.8 ohm running on a GLV at 3.7. Fantastic vapor, solid throat hit, and amazing flavor. Like you Zoo, I'm tasting elements of my favorite juice that were never there before. Longevity is the only other quality I'm looking for in an atty and if these live up to the reviews I'll be in vaping nirvana.

I sure would love a i06 DCA to make these even more versatile ;)

I am in love with the i06's. I have bottom feeders that sit in storage unloved and have pulled them out due to the i06.
Dripping is what I have done since about 6 months into vaping-never did like my bottom feeders. The i06 has changed my mind. The flavor is amazing that you get with your juices using one of these atomizers, nothing burnt and a clean taste. I have been using the same one since vapercon (10/22) and it is still going strong.

@melloyello-Sorry I cannot answer your question, I have yet to use COV's DC's.

how does this atty compare to cov's dc?

My :2c: With all respect to COV, there's no comparison. I still think the dc atty is a really good 510 at lower voltages. It was great for about a week, but then it got "gurgully", and performance dropped off in general. From the get go, it got very hot at any voltage. So it's drip, get a few good puffs...then wait a few minutes for it to cool down, then vape again. On the ProVari I had to drop down the voltage to 3.3v to get a good vape out of it. After a few weeks it started leaking, got even hotter, and had much less vapor production. Cleaning it was a chore. The io6 vape is just so user-friendly and hassle free. It's what dripping is supposed to be about: quick flavor change, clean taste, and great vapor and TH. Like others, I can't wait to see how long it will last. I manage to get at least a month with other 306's before performance drops.

Like I said I'm pretty much a carto guy and for the last yr. I've been vaping nothing but 555 in a Fusion, Both in and out of a tank. Then Isaac came out with RY4 and changed that for me. Now I'm vaping a lot of RY4 too. The first RY4 I got when I started vaping tasted like sheep dip. Also the I06 with all it has to offer has got me changing there too. Is it better than Bruce's 510? Yes and I'm not putting Bruce down because he's one of the good guys and has some great products bu in the carto/atty deptt he sells what he buys, like most of the other vendors. Ikenvape listens to our wants and needs then he sets out to design, engineer, and produce those products for us and achieves that end quite well. That's the difference.

Love the I06 but I only ordered 1 in the 2.5 and got two drip tips with it,one derlin witch is to big(slides right off with my mouth) and one of the two tone colored one witch was to snug. I like how snug it was but It wouldn't come off of the atty. finally when I did get it off it pulled all of the guts and casing of the atty out. The casing stuck in my only drip tip and will not come out, rendering the drip tip useless. so now Im left with a broken 2.5 I06 and 2 LR I06 that I can't use cause I have no drip tip for them.. I could cry cause I love these attys SO much. I already ordered more but now I have to wait.. Has anyone else had a problem with the tips fitting properly??

That sucks bad... I have a silhouette i06 drip tip (the two-tone ones) and it fits well but I can't slide it all the way down which is relatively normal with most 306's I've used.
Somewhat related, when I've had really tight drip tips that didn't want to come off I usually use an adapter to provide something to hold onto while giving it a good pull. I've always been worried about killing the threads on a PV but I've never thought of the body of the atty pulling off.
Sorry I don't have any suggestions to make your drip tip usable again...

I have too but I learned pretty fast to lubricate the base of the atty with some juice before putting on the dt to the atty and dont press the things all the way down. It comes off better than if you place it on dry and push down too hard..

The one with atty parts stuck in it is silhouette i06 drip tip, and I only ordered 1. It would not go all the way down either but still would not break free. Im not mad, Im sad.:(

Put it in the freezer for a few hours or overnight, then pull it apart as soon as you take it out. screw it to an Ego Batt or a mod, then pull it apart when you take it out of the freezer. Or just try pulling it apart first while on a Ego or Mod
