i use cheap vodka, works like a charm. the thought of using isopropyl alcohol weirds me out, vodka doesn't cause any worry so I just default to it.

I've been stalking this thread for a couple months and I ordered a 357 1.5 ohm a few weeks ago - finally broke it out 5 or 6 days ago and it has shown no signs of slowing down.
Felt it was worth sharing after reading so many horror stories about them dying after a few days. I was definitely afraid to pull the trigger at one point. I'll definitely check back in when it dies though - hopefully in six months!

I got my custom 357 long barrel lat week, along with some 306s for my DCA. I have not even opened my 357 because my other 2 are still going very strong. I showed them off at a local meet in a store. Everyone was impressed. My original 357 long barrel is always in my hand, still making huge plumes of vapor!
I know what you mean...
I have 3 HH 357's unopened and feel really good about that; granted they are fine.
The first is on it's like 6th or 7th day.
I used to stock up real big on conventional attys as they used to last me a lot less; like a week, but that was with cranking them on a VV too.
Nowadays, if you take care of a good atty, you only need a couple back ups; plus you never know what's going to come on the market new.
I keep some of each kind and resistance, and some rebuildable attys w/ supplies.
But lately good LR's and 3.7 batts are all i really need. HH357's are the cream of the crop.

I don´t feel the need to use LR Magnums on high V or W, I´ll just loose some of the flavor as I do this.
do you think the early demise of the HH's posted here could be because of high voltage on a LR HH?
not in my case ukeman, i have only run on my reos at 3.7 ever.

Guys my original ( 5 ) 357's are still going, it's been 6 months now, that's no BS, I have them on 5 different Reo's including one on my Beta Reo VV Woodvil now, there just a super Atty, call me spoiled but I just dont care for anything but now. I truly believe keeping these wet like most Atty's is the longevity of there lifespan too, I mean 6 months cmon that's crazy I know but true, there also running like day 2-3 when they Broke in, and they show no signs of degrade what so ever, they just keep running like the Energizer bunny.!!! To use anything else but the 1.5ohm 357 is under par in my opinion, just my opinion of course but it's where I'm at with these little monsters of vapor plumes.
While thats great to hear, its not been my experience at all. more like two weeks average for me. Might i ask what juice you are using? I've been told that my choice of sweeter VG juices has been the cause of early demise.
BTW- I am just in LOVE with my latest 901 357 @ 1.5 ohm. To me this one beats any other atty, including the 510 357 (long or short) in flavor and vapor. I'm only about 4 days in to it with intermittent use. Trying to go easy on this one as i want it to last. wish me luck!
good to hear hildicat, about the 901 hh 1.5.... i have one unused, and a custom 901 1.5 unused yet....
Have been on my longbarrel 1.5 510 for about 10 days.... no issues...
I think mwa uses Boba's which is notorious (i hear) for clogging attys... so he's on top of the spectrum for success no doubt.
I got a couple customs because they were out of reg. HH 357's thinking i'd get them before the reg came back in stock... no.
I got the regulars when they came up and they came before the customs got here.....
Does anyone prefer the customs? I asked for PG/VG adjustment... 1.5 OHm, but basically just wanted to get my hands on a 510 and a 901. Now i got both.
I picked up a cheap bottle of vodka to do a suggested cleaning of the LB, and will pull out a 901.... nice to have those opportunities... Thanks mwa for recommending these. (and braddah Keith from honolulu!)

I only use a very high count of VG juices or 100% VG, being my own mixes, KVB and Alien visions, pretty much that is it,,believe me I ONLY tell it like it is Hidicat,, all 5 have one of these or more in them, and the 6 months is NO BS,,, I also rotate these 5 Mods all day long as well as have others in front of me with other 357's on them that are going strong at over 4 months,, I rarely have ever even given these a wash also, and there all kept wet with juice as well always. It is what it is and thats all I can really say about it, I just vape away on these daily Hidicat

I prefer the "FinnishSpecial" it´s a 3.0ohm, 901, 100%VG, with a loose pull and it holds more juice than the standard. It´s just awesome, it beats the normal 901 version hands down and I think that´s far better than the 510 version. The flavor is just something else and as a side effect you get huge clouds of vapor. I only use DIY 100%VG juices which normally are awful atty killers. I have been running the oldest one of these for about 10weeks now with no problems.

I'm not doubting you at all, I just wish I could get the same longevity you are getting. Part of my problem may have been that when I used them in the past, they were the ONLY atty I would use for any given period of time. I would chain vape about 6mls a day through them. I now have two PVs. One has the 901 357, the other a different atty and I alternate between the two throughout the day. Aside from keeping different flavors available, I am hoping that not chain vaping either one will let them both last longer. Perhaps it has something to do with repeated constant use. Maybe the coils don't like getting that hot for extended periods of time. Other than the amount of PVs you have, we have basically yhe same setups. I'm vaping 2 Reo Grands with AW IMR 18650's, vaping either KBV or Ave's Raf. Maybe I just need to get a few more Grands and some 357's to go with them...
Yeah, I recently got the standard 901 357 1.5. I would have gotten the custom for VG but I didn't want to wait a year to get it. I also got some IKV 1.8 901's and some DSE 1.8 (maybe 1.5, cant remember) 901's, and a Cisco bridgeless 1.8 901. Having tried them all, I can say the 357 has the best flavor with the Cisco being a close second. I don't know that the 357 is worth it over the Cisco yet. That depends on how long they will last. If they last within a few days of each other I don't see myself paying the extra money for the extra flavor of the 357, well maybe as a treat, but not on a regular basis. I liked the IKV and DSE and they perform very similar, but have to give the nod to the 357 and Cisco for better all around flavor and vapor production. If money were no object, and I could get this 357 901 to last me just one month, I would drop everything else and stock up for the year.
The filler is optimized for VG so it holds more juice as the normal isn´t able to hold as much thick VG as it´s able to hold a thinner PG/VG blend. I think it has something to do with the weight of the juice, Hanna will confirm about the working mechanism differences.
just put my LB in some vodka to follow HBomb's advice. Figured out a good tip for that: put your vodka in a juice bottle or syringe and just drip into the HH atty... saves a lot of v-juice..
So i guess i'm going to just let it air dry, or do i rinse with H20?
btw, Hildi, i put the 1.5 901 HH on my Reo Mini, and again, it acts like there's no voltage ... put it on a VV at very low voltage, and wow.... you are right about that what you said....
imo the HH attys give you the most bang for you juice/nic... talk about a nic buzz, i have to "put down the pv, and walk away..." pheww yeah.
bw, when i pulled out the HH 1.5 901 tonite, i tried to put the Avidvapor "open" short (low profile) adapter on for the Reo Mini.... it didn't thread.
I thought; is it the adapter or the atty?
Turns out it's the atty... I tried another standard 510 to 901 adapter; nope same thing. Dang.
Then I put a "closed" stealth adapter i got from Ikenvape, and it fits like a charm. So for some reason this 901 has a cranky threading. I won't be able to squonk it but i tried dripping on the Mini Reo, and like i said, hard time getting clean voltage to it.
THe LB took a couple days to break in before it worked good on the Reo.
I put it on a notcigs VV at low voltage... and it's performing just like I'd want it to... killer.
IMO Hanna has done more for vaping in the last year or so, since these came out, than anyone I can think of (right now - which ain't much since i have such a nic buzz).
I remember passing on these for a darn long time, thinking along with a lot of critics; how could a disposable atty be worth that much? Then i read a lot of posts about how the things SPIT all over the place, all the time... I should know by this that the folks really digging these attys were too busy vaping their asses off!
It wasn't until recently that some respectable vapers tipped me to these.

i think i have used about 100 bucks worth of these at 4 volts 1,8 to 3.0 ohm
a few weeks then poof dead burt taste
first then noting
or my mod omega falls over then the atty is bent and draw air is off ,its leaking
,i tell you for me i love them for the first week maybe a bit longer
in the long run cisco customer service isnt good at all
i tryed to get the real hanna built hh357 site said 3-5 days took over 30 days to put to rest
then the cisco folks canceled my order
and said i should go else where
i then talked to hanna about it ..and he offered his apology's said it was his fault and he would talk to them about
it the quality..and customer service that bad
they will last just like any other atty from china
