I'm trying to decide what sort of atomizer(s) to get. I've never used one before so I went
through this
thread and tried to pull out all the references for what worked well. I might as well post the summary here. If it's too long someone just tell me and I'll delete it. Feel free to add more info if you want.
HH357
• sealed bottom HH.357 atty on the XL...feeds & performs perfectly!
• Many like the HH.357, but I find them to be severely overpriced.
• this thing rocks the HH357 now to order more 357's long barrel
• with the HH357 since last night didn't have to stop only 1 batt change no taking apart no fiddling no problems very nice.
Vapage
• The Vapage Hybrid 1.5ohm attys are very good.
• I ordered a 1.5ohm hybrid atty with it and I'm super impressed.
• After pulling out the pin, the hybrid BF (not slotted) atty feeds and vapes very well.
• Only tried it with a 1.5 Hybrid and it works like a champ.
• I just tried the 2.2 atty and it's pretty nice! Thought I would like the 1.5 better, but nope.
• I love it with the Vapage Hybrids & with Joye LR306's.
• There are two types of Hybrid Atomizers [on Vapage site?]: Bottom Feeder & Universal. The BF has feed slots at the base of the barrel & has a silver connector. The Uni has no feed slots & a gold connector. The BF works on both the standard & XL Vmods. The Universal is for the XL only.
• It ships with a 2.2ohm Universal Hybrid. I'm not seeing the Universals listed on the site though. They are basically the same...with the exception of the feed ports on the BF model. IMO they are both good.
306’s
• I am a big 306 fan...works well with any
juice I've ever tried. Just a 1.5ohm Joye.
• Joye 510's & 306's [atties] work flawlessly.
• like crazy for a week with an LR306 for the most part.
• I like the Joye LR306 at 1.5ohms quite a bit.
• I'm using an LR306 & the new feed chamber is like having a bottom fed DCA.
• On the XL, it's the 306's that are just rockin' me world
• though the 306 bridgeless bauways works well with universal connector.
Joye
• Joye 510's & 306's [atties] work flawlessly.
• BUT I have found a new love for my Joye LR attys using the 18650 battery.
• On my Vmod SL I'm using Joye 1.8-2.2 ohm atties, they're great.
• I'm using LR Joye 510s and they're working awesomely. I get them in bulk from Vaporkings:
• ...and a SR Joye 510 atty. So far so great!
• ...and am using a SR510 atomizer. It is wonderful.
Silo Cartomizer
• I notice no one talking about the "silo" that comes installed... it's pretty darn good!
• I adore the Silo. That's what I've been primarily using all week and it's flawless on the 18650
• For x3x - the 2.8 silo is good with 5V!
• I like the silo's personally, I switch between them and my 306's.
• I really like the silos and I'm not even a cartomizer guy. To me, they are the closest taste to dripping without dripping. They also last a good long time and are extremely forgiving.
Ikenvape io6
• I've not tried the io6, but they get high marks from others.
(on vmod?)
• the io6 with the black delrin tip DOES WORK! unfortunately the draw is wayy too stiff. if you loosen the catchcup part then put the cone on it works a little better but im not sure how well it would defend from leaks being that its soo loose now.
• LR 1.5 i06 is of course, killer vapes on the XL !
[some issues with screwing it down tight enough?]
• Ikenvape io6 w/ black delrin tip has too stiff a draw with the catch cup ring installed all the way. if i dont screw it down all the way it gives a little but worries me about leaking.
Ikenvape general
• I got a ikenvape 1.5 xlr in it with bobas bounty this is one the best tasting atty I've tried
• I am curently using ikenvape xlr 510 it has good flavor but doesn't hold much juice I'm only geting two pulls before I have to feed it again [all VG juice]
Boge Cartomizer
• I did try the Boge 2.0ohm carto. I'm not a carto master, but it seemed about the same to me.
• I did have to lower center pins on boge carto to work. its a little tighter draw but not bad.
Misc
• Dual Coil atomizers don't work....they fire, but don't feed
• all my 510 atties work great no problem! [didn't mention which]
• The dual coil plastic cartomizers wont work they are too fat.
• Triple coil cartos work, had to pull out center contact, tight draw on these.
• Tat drilled a hole in the side of a hollow 901 adapter & is using 901 attys in the XL.
• I couldn't get their bridgeless 510 to work with it, was too stiff of a draw,
