I find the kr8 to have an extremely easy and light draw...like sucking air through a straw..

Agreed, they generally do have a light draw - it depends on the holes in the battery. It seems like on the PT, the draw is not quite as light for some reason (I think I actually prefer the draw on the PT).

I also have a 901 atomizer on a Bartleby, and that has a very light draw as well.

What model do you find has the easiest draw? Specify auto or manual batts, atty, etc.


KR808D-1

If you look at the business end of the batteries and passthroughs, you should see a groove cut across the battery terminal hole. If this is exists, you will get a very light draw and no “wheezing” sounds when drawing in air. Un-grooved terminal holes are ok, but the ones with grooves work better as far as easy drawing and less noise is concerned.

Be careful to insist on this when ordering. For some reason many suppliers seem to prefer to push the batteries and PT’s that don’t have the grooves.

I prefer the KR808D-1 to my 510.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for all the input. I'm seriously considering getting a KR808 as a second PV so this is good to hear. Can you expand on "..it depends on the holes in the battery".

Which 808 batt besides the PT gives the easiest draw?

My KR8 (from vapor4life) has a variable draw. Depending on the way you line up the holes on the battery and your cartomizer you can greatly vary the ease of draw. I have found that my auto batteries have an easier draw than my manuals.

It's very easy to adjust the draw on the KR8 from V4L by lining up the air holes below the battery thread with the bottom cut outs in the cartomizer.

My vote is the 901. Lots have easy draw but it is often more air than vape. The 901 doesn't waste your time sucking air.

I agree. The 901 is much like the 510 in that respect, but you are not sucking a bunch of air like on a KR808D-1 or a supermini where you think you are until you exhale. ;-)
