Made a drip attachment for my A2 with a ego cone and a rubber tip from a mega DC. Pulled the rubber tip in from the bottom of the cone. Drilled a small air hole in the cone and it works great. Going to cut a sleeve from an old ego battery to fill the space between the ego battery and the A2.

We made the ego cone cover today. Slightly ground down the top....an 801 drip tip fits it perfectly. It looks crazy good. Dripping on the A2 is the absolute best flavor I have ever had vaping. We had one standard A2 from Cetin with the 701 adapter from vapor age. Now my DH can drip his with the ego cone. Super.

Started doing surgery on my a2 last night - its a 901 fitted that I bought from the classifieds. Used my dremel and an engraving bit to bore out the pressed-in connector. There was some kind of epoxy inside which I took out and I am going to drill a hole to get airflow from under the coil - possibly use it as a bottom feeder and get a nice 510 non sealed connector in there. Will update with pics and results :)

I recently rebuild my A2 cause it had a short and its not as easy as I thought. In short words I drilled the connector out (M8), digged lots of hot glue out of the socket, took the positive connector out, punched the rest of the connector out through the positive connector opening, fixed the wireing and build everything back again (replaced the destroyed connector with an 510 atomizer connector from HG. Oh and its a good advice to put some adapter on the atomizer connector when pressing it back again, else it might get damaged.

I am sorry but I didn't take any videos :oops:

3 to 4 wraps 32awg, 1.6 ohm, 2.5 amp, 4 v, 10 watts

7 to 8 wraps 32awg, 3 ohm, 1.8 amp, 5.5 v, 10 watts

I know most out there are using 3 to 4 wraps and darwin people say 10 watts is 10 watts no mater what the ohms but in my experimenting I have never been able to get the same amount of vaper on 4 wraps at 10 watts as 8 wraps at 10 watts.

You have increased the surface area using more wraps which will effect the vape even though wattage is the same. It would be more apples to apples if it were 8 wraps 32awg compared to 8 wraps 34/36awg and the difference of voltage to obtain 10 watts. I'm just impressed you can get 8 wraps in there successfully. I struggle with more than 4 fighting the shorts on wick or sides of the tube.

Edit to add: Does Robert know you are making movies now?

That why I went to a vertical wick on the A2, to be able to fit more wraps.

This is my normal setup with the A2. I don't use the cartridge, just the filler far from the coil. I refill taking off the mouthpiece. Since I don't have to open it up often, the wick and coil never move and seem to last longer and less shorting incidences. I use a thicker long wick that keeps the 7 to 8 wraps wet and producing monster vaper.
