Killer 705 atty

[thejager]

Yours may have shipped...it just might not have shown up yet. Weird stuff happens from overseas in my experience.

For example with THIS vendor.

I preordered Killer on 01/04...i then the next day (i believe) ordered some premade coils from them. I got the shipping notice for the Killer before i got the shipping notice for the coils. I got the Killer mid last week, and the coils just showed up yesterday.

Im not saying it is an excuse, but perhaps it is just all out of whack with the notifications.

I agree their customer service isnt great in my experience, but that isnt going to make it any better. I have seen worse customer service and much much better. However, if they are the only (i know they arent really) supplier you are kind of at their discretion.

I say wait it out, and hope for the best. Like someone else said, whenever i buy something overseas, i just forget about it, and am happy when i get the vapemail.

If vaping has taught me anything it has taught me about my threshold of patience. Im not saying dont be upset, but at the end of the day all you can do is wait, send your inquiries, and be happy when you get it in the mail.

sorry about it though

The tone of my post might have come off a little harsher than I intended. It is not as if I am over here flipping out - I'm just disappointed in how they run their business, and I tend to be rather unforgiving when it comes to bad customer service given my experience in that area. Thanks for the words of encouragement, though!

UPDATE - I emailed them again earlier and they just replied with my tracking info. I'm still disappointed with how the transaction went but at least I can cross this off my list.

I ordered on 1/27 and there are people who ordered on 2/1 that have already had theirs shipped out. I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt but not replying to emails is simply not acceptable - and this is coming from someone who has managed customer service operations.

It may have already shipped. I never got a formal shipping notification. I just got a short e-mail today with the tracking number for my order, I'm assuming in response to the e-mail inquiry I had sent last week. It did take a while to get a response though

It had actually shipped on 1/31, I just never received a notice - how long it takes to actually arrive is a whole other thing.

Hello Jager, would you be willing to part with one of the extra coils/ ceramics? Im sure you have seen my post regarding my stuck ceramic. they finally got back to me and their suggestion is to send the Killer back ( it will cost me 10.00 or more to ship) and then wait a week or so till new shipment and wait for shipping again. Thanks

Not sure if you're aware, but the ceramic cups/coils appear to be in stock at houseofmods .. I know that doesn't help you now, but I'll probably buy a 5-pack soon myself.

Nope - when you add to cart there's a pop-up that they're out of stock.

Boo! Well so much for THAT! I'll have to keep my eyes open. Sorry!

Just ordered two.

Has anybody answered if the CE2 ceramic cups will work? I have some CE2s left over from modding way back. Sure would be nice to find a use for them.

Although I have tanks, Phiniac and some others, I'm interested in trying these sans tank with BF REOs. Has anyone used these as drippers, sans tank and/or on BF? There is a hole in bottom center pin and an unsealed adapter is used. If the juice flow, via turning the cap, can't be closed all the way perhaps a thin silicon ring would work to seal.

Thanks, Feisty Alice

I don't know if anyone's tried yet, but I'll throw mine on the Reo 18490 when it gets here and let you know. I'm pretty sure someone's used them as a dripper though. I'll let the others chime in. I know several people have asked about Reo compatibility, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

If these work out, I might have to pick up a couple more.

 

[beebopnjazz]

I keep checking and I signed up for notifications - you did mean greekvapes.eu right? Are you talking about the ceramic cup/wick refills? I ordered my killer 705s from them and received shipping notification this morning.

The big issue using with a BF is having a way for juice to get up into cup. Although the center pin looks unsealed the base of cup might not be. Just about anyone with a good drill press can probably mod it by drilling through the base of cup. I know others have done this with dripper RBAs.

We shall see.

I really like the short form factor. I have Surface, A7 and Mini A7, Vision Eternity, all really tall, and ERA, Hornet, and REOmizer. All work with bottom freeders but some of them don't fit our smaller catchcups on smaller REOs or they are just so top heavy looking. I haven't seen, either, the outside diameter of the Killer, but it must be small enough to fit the smaller catch cups as it is the diameter of a standard carto. The Hornets, especially the aluminum, are apt to bend out of round if dropped onto hard surfaces. ERAs are a bit thicker and our US available are SS but they only fit the larger REOs and none of the Woodvil brass catchcups unless you send it in for larger CC replacement.

Getting excited.

yo guys are lucky that you are even getting a tracking number, i didnt get one, didnt bother me much it just showed up.
ce2 ceramics cup should fit. just try and see.
killer is resting inside m ufs now. 1.3 ohm coil, all vg juice, performing beastly.
notes
dont choke your wick,
dont overpack your bowl with silica
and pay close attention to the pressure being built up
i adjust my juice on the carto tanks by pulling tank up to stop, unscrew entire thing, then adjust my juice flow, pull tank to close the gap you just opened, screw entire thing back into the mod, flip, and slide tank back down.

lots of words there but its not as involved as it looks on paper

Hi there,

Based on what Leo says in a few of his youtube vids I decided to drip with the Killer before fitting it in a tank.

Yes, it works perfectly fine. No leaking whatsoever and I kinda dripped about 6ml in one evening as soon as I got it!

 

[tim_man]

I should be getting mine any day now. Can't wait

 

[Thrasher]

and I kinda dripped about 6ml in one evening

kinda? cant remember from the nic buzz i guess hehehe

Indeed. I'll test to see if it feeds without issue. As I don't have my hands on the Killer yet, I don't know anything about the dimensions or setup of the holes on the bottom. It seems promising though... And if it works on the Reo, I'm totally ordering 2 more Killers.

I just got the eBaron Dripper today, which I'm fairly sure uses the same ceramics, etc. There is a hole in the bottom of the ceramic, so no worries there.

Well everyone. I started looking through drawers and drawers and found some old Ce2s. I decided to break the cup off my Killer and found out the reason it would not come off. The center pin is slightly crooked. I tried to gently shape it to round as much as I could, but still , looking at it from the side its slightly wider at the lip of the tube/pin. How the heck did that happen? They had to originally push the ceramic down on the pin? Could the heat have made the metal swell? and then when I was trying to pull it off it reshaped it? Im perplexed .

Now I cant put a new ceramic in because the hole in the center is too thin. I will see if I can find another ceramic maybe the hole will be a hair wider. Maybe I can put a really narrow exacto and try to turn it just a hair so the hole on the ceramic is wide enough to fit.

I will udate later, In the meantime I must wait to see if they can send me just a replacement center pin and ceramic, so I dont have to wait for weeks.
