Official IO6 Atomizer beta thread...

[mwa102464]

Switched, just some food for thought, I see your running the HV's on your p18 ( Great unit ) I use to run them at full charge with 2 x AW LiFePO4 Batts all the time, however as of late I have knocked down to 5.7-5.8v with all of Issacs HV Atty's and seem to be getting a bit more flavor and longevity out of the HV Attys then running them at the 6V. I can only take an educated guess on why I'm getting better performance but the -.2-.3 increment downward adjustment seems to be making a difference for me with these on my VV mods.

I've moved to 5.6v under load w/ my HV io6. Taste is spectacular.

This thing sounds awesome! I can't wait to get one of these. I have been contemplating the switch from 510's to 306's for a little bit...

I wonder if one of the fittings for the 306 DCA(when it's released) will fit on this. I know this has the 510's diameter, but the DCA is supposed to have different sized fittings. (Not really asking, just thinking to myself.)

BTW is there a chart comparing the pro's and cons of 510 vs 306? All I have found is 510 vs 901 vs 801...

You are probably right but yesterday I knew I needed 6V with all the drinking that was going to go on, plus we were outdoors which require extra boost.

I think I may be on my own here, but mine leaks pretty consistently when I top off with 3 drops using the HV version at various points between 5 and 6v. I don't think that I'm over dripping because I usually don't re-up until I start getting a dry hit which is very noticeable.

I have the LR version too which I haven't tried yet, so I'll have to tinker with that and see if maybe I just got a bit of an off unit.

SlotheK,
I know these atomizers are prone to becoming hot very quickly. The dry or burnt taste may be coming from an overheated atomizer rather than just a dry one. Let it rest a couple minutes and take a drag. If it has a dry taste add 3 drops and let it rest for a minute more. Then try vaping again and see if you still have leaks if you have not tried this already. This is the solution to ~90% of all my atomizer problems.

I'll have to try that, I'm a bit of a chain vaper for sure. After making that post, I unwrapped the LR version, and so far no leaks, but this one does have that horrid soapy/perfumey taste, which the HV version didn't. Guess I shoulda cleaned it first, instead I'll just out stubborn it

Because I use a cone with mine it is hard to tell if the unit was leaking or not, considering my state on Saturday. My set up allows for quite a bit of condensation build up between the cone and the unit (which is a relation with the relative humidity). They are juice hogs however which is to be expected from any atty at 5V +.

Sunday morning there was quite a build up of liquid/condensation in the cone and it was not just condensation. However my LR does not leak. I will have to conduct another test at 6V (without refreshments) and see what is what. Regardless very few atties don't leak especially when over dripped.

I am glad I acquired these

I've moved to 5.6v under load w/ my HV io6. Taste is spectacular.

I vape at lower temps, usually close to 5.1 volts and like this IO6 better than any others just because of it doesn't leak on me but I'm not an atomizer guy so FWIW.

Need some help ~ I have 2 HV i06 and 1 LR i06. the first HV had the "taste". Tried to vape it out and ended up putting on 6v pv and Pop. So I soaked the other 2 in Vodka for 1 1/2 hours, blew them out, dried and filled the other HV and it's still there. I don't have a ultrasonic cleaner, what next?

i iso. alcohol soaked mine with no results neither. i havent personally tried it yet, but MX said he boiled his for 10 minutes and it seemed to work. when i get around to doin it ill come back anf comment too

i really like these, I use them at 5.5 volts and the taste and vapor production are great. However as i use them more i realized the leak a whole lot....

I will buy more when available but i hope the leaking problem gets fixed, because these attys have the potential to become my number one atty but i dont see that happening if they continue to leak.


the ikv hv 510 is my goto atomizer

 

[emonty]

No leaking here at all, using the LR on a phid without catchcup, tilt 'n shoot gives the right amount every time. Yes great atty!!!

 

[gjrhine]

No leaking here.

 

[Mvgratz]

No leaking here with the 4 lr's I've got in use. 2 were extremely hard to vape, and unusable... Meaning they felt like the air intake hole and/or center hole are "clogged". (Didn't want to screw around poking the atty with anything and screwing up the coils so I just sat those aside) The other 4 are perfect imo... Ready for another order for sure. The flavor of sweet juices with the lr and a fresh aw imr 3.7v batt (4.2v) is fantastic. I have a strong feeling these will be my new go-to's...

 

[5cardstud]

I'm with you people. No leaks here either. That's the thing I like most about them. I thik they deserve the Fusionman Certification. LOL

 

[Switched]

Outside of Sat night (over dripped) the HV is working fine. The only dis-satisfier to me was the mild soapy taste when new.

 

[ab357]

No leaking with mine either. My attys generally seem to last forever. However my first HV died in about 30 secs., the second a day and a half. I haven't pulled out the last one yet.

 

[Switched]

What voltage are you running them at, out of curiosity?

 

[ab357]

I was using the first one on one of my Darwins. That one metered out at 3.8 ohm and was set at around 9 watts which would be around 5.8ish volts. The second metered at 3.6 ohm and I had it on the Provari set at 6v.

With both I blew out, gave 5 drops of juice and let it sit for at least 30 seconds, then a couple more drops before use and would re fill with 3 drops until they died. I haven't bothered to meter the third yet since I haven't started using it.
