Can someone please post a link to a seller that has the Cyclone BF atty?

Here it is - right now for a very limited time it looks like you can get the AFC bottom fed combo. They are calling it the Cyclops.
Cyclone Rebuildable Atomizer by Vicious Ant Precision Engineering and Research - Cyclone/Divo Rebuildable Atomizer & Accessories

AFC Cyclops
Cyclops AFC (Air Flow Control) With Cyclone Base (Bottom Feed) - Cyclone/Divo Rebuildable Atomizer & Accessories

You can also find them in London if you have 2 weeks to wait and pay extra for shipping.

Wow... 95 dollars... Enjoy that while vape my reomizer

I am - dual Nichrome 12 wraps. Very good quality - all stainless without a doubt.

The vapor from this puppy will blow you away - I guarantee it!:vapor:

PS. Working on some Mundy's magic right now. We'll see if we can make that RM2 sing along as well. :)

I've never dualed.... Probably does. Congrats :)
My 1.1 Ohm single does me just fine ;)

I will have to agree - the RM2 is a better value. I even have a couple spares for backups. I just have more money than good sense.

Its all good as long as we're making clouds. :):vapor:

Yeah, the Mods are fabricated as unique, individual units. It's conceivable to fabricate one with multiple bottoms (right from the outset . . . . day one). It's not impossible to make a second bottom (with the original mod in the shop, and possibly needing partial or complete refinishing). It wouldn't be cheap enough to justify the convenience.

What I've found, the way shorts tend to present themselves, if you don't short out on start-up (fresh coil, seating the atty, new metal drip tip), you're pro'ly good to go (literally . . . .leave the house) on that build. Lightning may strike; but who can live that way?



Seems more likely you'd leave the house having forgotten to swap for a fresh battery :p


Ummmm....... I'm NOT the only one?? :blink: Sooooooo Been There Done That. (and will most likely Be there and Do that again.)



buy yer cyclones here fer a dollar


not really . .. . . don't click ↑ that . . .. well . .. . go ahead, click it.


Welp, call me a Doofus and color me Blonde already. ;)

That was cute.

Well I promised a few folks a few some Micro-Gen internal shots and show how the newest squank version is going to squank...
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get as much done as I'd hoped but I was able get a few pics and do a little testing...

I guess I'll start by showing my original "ultra short" prototype...
F6C4FE38-2792-4B70-8087-3EF1A97A54F7_zpsfleybohw.jpg


Not counting the drip tip... About 19mm...

And what she looks like with her skirt off.

All fired up...

So... Yea... It works... Really well in fact... But there are a couple little things that I'm not super happy with, that needed to be corrected before I started making more of them.

1) It's too damned cramped. Yes, I was able to build a coil in it but it wasn't super easy and it certainly didn't leave a lot of room for various coil options. Fortunately, my preferred coils are about 0.6 ohms with a tight/touching wrap, so it worked out... but... I still consider it an issue.

2) Repeatability... Making the pos post like the dripping version and then drilling it out after was sketchy at best... I hit one perfectly... Did minor damage to one... and completely destroyed one. The tolerances required to drill along side a 00-90 brass machine screw is just too tight for the tools I have available.

3) The hole size it 1/32". It works but it's tight. I wanted to open it up so the juice could flow a little easier.

So... Here is the prototype and the much improved version of the posts...

Prototype...
9804EF40-44FC-4431-86A9-A598E4FC2DD4_zps1x45watg.jpg


New and improved!!!
E174D046-BD98-4250-8E17-B43C2051BAF2_zpsmpulfsq4.jpg


As you can see, there is now Plenty of room for juice to flow and it flows very easily. AND I can repeat it over and over with very little variation and no risk of damaging the brass screw.

Here are a few test squanks...
1) Bone dry...

2) Let there be juice...

3) Thy cup runneth over...

4) And down she goes...

The next area of concern was "how high will it squank?" When I was chatting w/ the pdib about what he would be looking for, he said he was primarily using Mundy's Magic brand wire which was pretty thick and may need as much as 6mm to 7mm of coil height to get his desired resistance. So... Giving the space isn't a problem... But will it squank high enough to saturate a coil that tall???

The test coil... (I don't have any Mundy wire so I faked it with some 28 awg...

And will it squank that high? Let's see... ;)
1) Dry...

2) Looks like it... Hard to tell...

3) So just for good measure, let's bring it up to the nuts... ;) (Admittedly, this one did require a hell of a squeeze. I think I may have dented the battery...)

Well... That's where I'm at, at the moment. :D
