Need help on UD AGI Hybrid

[Sunz]

I got my UD AGI hybrid yesterday and this is my first rba. It doesnt give me much vapor and throat hit as much as my Vivi during the first/cool vape. I will have to hold in the vapor for few seconds before inhaling to get more vapor and more hit.
Also, whenever i inhale there are some whistling sound from the air hole, is these normal? Please help

It's a great device as a dripper, requires modding as a genesis.

Wire type/gauge?
Device?
Wick?
Ohms?
Juice?

Many variables but, again, it's a NICE device.
Check for an obstruction if you are getting whistling, maybe a tab of metal hung around during machining.

Certain airhole size can create whistling sound.

If its your first RBA, unfortunately, 100% you are doing something wrong if you dont get the vape you want.

Post a pic of it set up.

Thanks for the reply.

Wire type/gauge? SS Mesh 400
Device? Vamo II
Wick? 32awg Kanthal A1
Ohms? 1.8
Juice? Not sure. Lol Got it from my buddy

The inside seems normal to me. No dents etc, does the AGA T whistle too and I think the reason why is that the air hole is too small

Like i said, a certain range of air hole size creates the whistling effect.

Hows the taste? Is it burnt, metallic? Is your wick saturated? Do you tilt to keep the wick wet? What wattage/voltage are you running the VAMO at? Is the airhole aligned with the wick?

RBAs are complicated by nature and pictures should help.

 

[TheSystemHasFailed]

Wait... you are using it with that glass tank attached?

Disassemble it if so. It needs to be modified to transfer proper current. The spring they used kills it.
There is a thread on here where someone shows what they used to mod it. It's my dripper only, as my aga-t+ is my tank joint.

He never said he touched the hole, you have one yourself, does it whistle?
Mine doesn't.
Using yours as a dripper?

 

[Sunz]

Ok here's the picture of it

And there is your problem.
It's junk as a TANK (glass tank) setup until you remove the spring that runs through that metal tube.
It needs a solid post. It's 4 am, and I was shutting down as I saw your post, canceled shutdown, and here I am.
Later today I WILL find that fix for you.
Do it as a dripper in the meantime. It SLAMS flavor out.

Ok let me search for it. I think i came across the post before but didnt read about it. Thanks.

This thread will be in a different place later on, when Unforeseen moves it.
Don't forget that

LOL. Well, you should get on to your bed then. Thank you very much once again.

I had to do it all myself, so now I'm just paying it forward my friend.

I bored out airhole soon as i got it. I wouldnt know.

But then again i only use it as a dripper. If you find the thread for fixing the center spring, id be very interested as well.

How we doing Sunz?

I want you making clouds, report!

 

[Kanj.nguyen]

Hey System you found the thread?

 

[tagster]

Look at the video from Soulmaaan on YouTube. Todd shows the fix with a 14 gauge blunt syringe needle in his AGI V2 review on TouTube as well. Todd also uses ss cable to increase juice wicking without having to drill out the mesh hole. Once you drill out the mesh hole, you cannot seal it for dripping unless you tap it.

 

[Kanj.nguyen]

I have used cable but it makes really bad heat sink.

Nope, too much work. LOL, went and got myself a AGA t-2 works perfectly. Guess I'll just use it as a dripper
