Just read about 30 pages of this thread... looks like no ones really posting here anymore. Everyone still happy with their HH.357 attys and AMP
tanks? I'm thinking of picking up two of these attys up to try out. I've bought a bunch of clearos, RBAs, tanks, etc. only to find that none of them give me the flavor that I desire, not compared to an atomizer. I vape mostly at home and primarily drip since it's convenient for me, but I use clearos for when I'm on the go and generally have to settle for less flavor and convenience of a clearo tank. I still have about 7 atomizers that I rotate around but all of these, I've had for AT LEAST 5 months. A few have completely died and I usually don't really throw away stuff unless it completely craps out... I guess some people are less picky and toss them when they start getting pretty bad. I wouldn't say they are
vaping horribly, but their performance has dropped enough to the point where I have started to look for the next buy.
Initially, at $21-25 bucks a pop for one of these, I didn't even consider it... seems way too overpriced. But now that I think about it, if these truly perform and last as most people say they do, it will be worth it for me. I am a pretty light vaper (typically 2-3ml a day and 3ml is a lot for me too) and don't chain vape unless I am drinking. So these should last me a while hopefully. I will be mostly using these on Ego type batteries, specifically, an iTaste VV3 and some Spinner/Twist batteries.
My question is: should I get long or short barrel and should I get 2.0 or 2.5 ohm? Not really sure what the difference is, I mean obviously I know the lower ohm are hotter but since I have a VV device and can adjust, not sure which would be better. I was planning to go with one long and one short, both at 2.0 ohm but I'd like a second opinion too. Also, does it make that much of a difference to blow through connector end rather than drip tip end? I believe the last couple of atties that died on me was because I messed up cleaning them. I had some Vapage attys that were pretty good but I boiled them and try to dry burn when they were still wet with water and kept firing it because the coils weren't turning red. I then started dry burning them after the attys had all night to dry out, that way the coils would immediately get hot and the crud would burn off. This method was pretty effective for the most part, but people say don't dry burn when the atty is completely dry. I thought that was the whole point though, to do it dry.. hence why it's called dry burn?? Maybe I'm still pretty noob at this but I am not unfamiliar with atomizers, I've tried a bunch of them from various vendors.
I also got an ultrasonic cleaner now to use with cleaning atty, not sure how much better it will be than cleaning it the old fashioned way but I was mainly hoping to get a deeper clean and perhaps save some time and hassle as well. I'd really like to try the Aero type atty but they have not been in stock on their site the last 20 times I've checked.
But yea... I think I'm finally willing to splurge a little on these atty and hope they are worth it! I love dripping, it's a little more work but I love the vape.
