I see, thanks. Would the short 357 1.5 ohm be ok with 100% VG, such as boba's?

Hmmm, let me check what I use.:laugh: It will be just fine if not better than PG.

ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you have experienced some decrease in performance AND OR would like to get your atty back into the same "SPEC" as it came when new do this:

hold atty between index and thumb with battery end facing down

bang atty really hard against any surface other than metal in a straight down motion

do this several times and your atty internals should "re-seat" themselves if they have shifted.
this wont cause any harm unless you continue to bang it against a metal surface and screw up the connector

so everyone go bang bang bang and let me know if anyone experiences some added performance.:p
This really works! Thanks a lot!

Just tried out my 357 2.0 long barrel today for the first time. I'm knew to the long model, but this one feels quite different from the shorties I am used to. Did the same start up procedure with this one, and granted, I'm only about 6 hours into it, but the draw is considerably tighter than what I get from the shorties. Getting good flavor and plenty of vapor, but the stiff draw has me a bit concerned. Running it on me Reo Grand at between 3.8~4.1 volts. Is this stiff draw common to the long barrels? I'm used to a relatively loose draw from my previous shorty 357's. Any suggestions?

I am guessing maybe just a slight difference in the hole size? I know on my REO's I have noticed some tighter than others. I usually just loosen it up just slightly to get a better draw? Also, sometimes I re-position it so that the holes line up perfectly with the squonk holes on the reo. If they are slightly off, this can make some difference. good luck. Maybe Hannah will chime in. He obviously knows better.

Thanks for the tips. I forgot to mention that it does gett hotter than I'm used to, and this happens almost after about three drags where my others get warm, but no where near as hot as this one.

Just checked it, coming in at 1.9 ohm.

Gave it another go last night and this morning. Put in about 3 three hours total hoping it might work itself out before going back to the shorty. I ordered several other long barrels at the same time but have not tried them out yet. Got some 3.0 ohms as well but am waiting to try those until I get my VV device next week. Sure hope this is an isolated incident. Starting to think I need to bang this one on my desk like Hannah suggested.

The draw sounds like an isolated issue with that atomizer, i would say send it on back to me so that I can have a look.

These Atty's are just unbelievable, I have been using the same 6 HH-357 510 Atty's now for 4 months, I have not had one go bad and the 6 I am using are all on a Mod that I use Daily in my rotation. There simply isnt a better Atty on the market then these 357's right now, for me the secret is keeping them wet always of course, I cant get over how well these just keep performing day in day out 120+ days now, there is only one word to describe these Bad Azz Muthas = WIN :2cool: You ROCK Hanna !
