Killer 705 atty

[anavidfan]

Its a go!!!!! Ce2 ceramic worked fine. I now have the one on the Killer and 2 extras. Its a good thing that I hate throwing things away. I hated those Ce2s. Its working even better with my own build. Did a 2.8 ohm on my kicked Saber Touch set at 8 watts. Nice slightly warmer than usual vape. Think because of its narrow tube heat concentrates. The top cap of my carto tank is hot, but not worrisome. I can feel the warmth on my stainless steel drip tip. Actually now the juice flow is smoother. I will post a photo in a few minutes. Took a photo of the Kir Fanis Trap tank on my Black Ice Kicked Saber touch with my Axiomani spheroid drip tip.

Nice tank, where did you get it from?

The answer was already posted...but this is the prive tank by Kir fanis, maker of the trap tank, tripolitis tanks, and all kinds of clear windows for odys, Spheroid, did, etc.

I got it straight from his website. http://gr-modders.com/shop/8-prive-by-kir-fanis-a-special-tank-for-provari.html

As was stated avid vaper in the us carries some of his stuff, but they were out.

Glad you got it working avidfan.

Couple other things...I have a reo, and will check it out tomorrow. Almost certain it would work fine.

Also had an issue last night...wonder if any others have experienced this. I left the killer in the tank last night fully open, and sitting in a rack, not connected to a mod. Tonight the tank was empty and the juice was in the rack. Appears that it was slowly feeding and exiting right through the 510 connection. Probably juice control has to be closed when putting it away for awhile.

kinda? cant remember from the nic buzz i guess hehehe

lol yeah 3 of them where with this masterpiece of a juice. And it's 20mg!

Now that I think of it, I could not get enough! This little thing was on fire!

What I like with it is the consistency of the vape. No matter what you do, the texture of the vape and it's taste wont be altered. You might want to check on the flow once in a tank but I haven't experienced any dry hit or flooding yet!

Here are some of my happy tank and drip tips waiting in line for their turn with The KILLER. Poor things have been tucked away, lonely since I got The Odysseus atomizers. Love them, but missed my carto tank and drip tips.

Love the tank collection.

lol awesome collection there! Reminds me I need to buy more tanks and killers! (what a costly hobby! but damn, tiz good!

tank you. I love the Kir Fanis tanks with the little screw top fills. So handy. It also helps relieve the air pressure that sometimes happens on the real tight tanks like the Phiniacs. Wish they had a top fill. It would be so easy to drill a tiny hole on top of the Delrin. Some people collect MODs. I like tips and tanks.

Shipping notice received from order a couple of days ago. Oh Boy!!!!

Hello everyone. Just wanted to update on the "stuck" killer. I told you how I got it working, etc. I got an email from Leo the maker himself. He was so apolgetic and supportive. Even though I got it working, he feels bad and is sending me some replacement cups and another center pin. I was shocked at such support.

So I hope this helps reassure everyone that they do have good after sales support. I never thought that Leo the maker would contact me. I guess its a "greek thing"

That's great stuff! Glad you got it sorted. Yeah, Leo and the team are real pros, in many ways! You can sense the care they put in their creatios and communication. Also, I've always had very good contact with his resellers too! Both Houseofmods and greekvapes! That's good stuff!


P.S.: It is indeed a Greek thing to take things personally!

I'm having a little trouble getting my killer to wick efficiently-- What size wick are you guys using? I currently have a 3mm folded over similar to how the stock coil is made. I'm thinking the the wick may be getting a little chocked by the ceramic side channels.

 

[anavidfan]

Here are some more things Ive found while still getting acquainted with the KILLER.

I have not had any leaking, except for the first time I tried it out.Make sure that when you put the Killer in place that the juice flow is closed. I had opened the juice flow and placed it in the tank and when I snapped shut the tank and added juice, the pressure sent the juice down the center and down the connection. You just have to be really light handed when opening the juice control, its really sensitive and depending on juice thickness it might look closed but thin juice might flow out. I use 50/50 and 30/80vg so I have to open it more.

One more thing, a lot depends on the tank. Some tanks are really tight and some are more loose. Phiniac tanks are really really tight, and so are the Kir Fanis tanks( at least the ones I have) so working the Killer is a bit harder. Once you snap down the tank body and top/bottom cap it traps air. I would suggest opening the juice flow slowly and see the air bubbles come out. Do this wait a bit, take a puff and if not enough juice than slowly open more let the bubbles out. It can be a very small turn,like even a 1/4 to get too much flow. If you get gurgling, close the juice control take a few puffs till the excess juice is consumed, than slowly start to open it with half turns till you get it right. It is really a wonderful quality vape. Nice and warm.

I'm completely new to this so I sticked with Leo's own setup as seen in this video here.

Another video although in Greek but in better quality and specific to the Killer can be seen here.

Wick: 2mm
R: 0.20mm (I got some 0.16 to play with lower res, this is in fact what he uses there)
NR: 0.20mm (99.9% Silver)

The results are amazing!

P.S.:The video is for The Dripper but it's the exact same setup.

Yeah, my tank is very tight too and it can be a pain. I lubed the o-rings with some thin juice and it works a lot better.

As for flooding/gurgling, though I set the flow around 50-60% for 50/50 VG/PG mix, I've used it fully open in the beginning and never experienced flooding so far (but might have been 100% VG tho'). What juice do you use?

Also love this warmth!

 

[tim_man]

Thanks, I guess my wicks too big. Heard that before...in a different context...lol

I'll try something smaller.

I use mostly The Plume Room and 1 from Ahlusions; the Bluegrass Burley. I started out with my 40/60 Plume Room Ramaglia Tuscan cigar and wasted 3ml because I had not snapped my tank on tight. So when I got it set up again, was weary about wasting TPR juice so I filled it up with my blend of Bluegrass burley and heavy VG DIY orange and clove. Just in case.

Definitely with those tight tanks, lubbing is a must. Plus , I dont know about you guys, but when Im working with new things, I get a bit nervous and shaky so Im more apt to have accidents with juice. Now that Im more familiar, Im much more "cool" Im sure after a few more rebuilds it will be easy peasy.

I set mine up with 3mm wick and 32 Kanthal with 32 nickel non-resistance. I think next time I will use my thinner sterling wire for the non-resistance.Plus sterling is softer so I think it will tend to flatten out easier in the threading. Im also get some 2mm silica to see how that works. So far the 3mm is wicking perfectly even if its a bit crowded.

Just got mine to day. This thing is killer.

 

[curtarias21]

I actually bought this for my wife. She's a carto tank lover. I might just have to order another for myself.

I also put in an email notification for when the ceramics cups are back in stock...hopefully soon! Does anyone know for a fact that the ce2 ceramics work? Or perhaps the GG stuff (not that I think that's easier to get than this)?

i noticed this while browsing
http://www................../Ceramic-for-Cody_p_161.html
its a ceramic for the ody clone. i have zero clue if its the right size for the killer, but i know lots of folks were asking about the ceramic, so heres a possibility.

edit: crap. i forgot that the hoosier vapes links dont work. just go to hoosier vapes and click on rba accessories.
