im interested in seeing how i feel about my 306s after a few days on the 357 now.
by the way, how often does everyone clean the 357....im really liking it after a few days broke in.

Give them a blowout and a soak in grain alcohol or vodka every 3 or 4 days and they'll be right as rain.

One thing I realized is that with the 357 I almost never have any juice in the catch cup. Every other atty I used caused me to fill or almost overflow my catch cup regularly. I don't know if its because my blind squonk technique is getting better, or if its the way the 357 works, but I'm not making anymore messes with juice and my bottle seems to last longer. WIN WIN

I just got one yesterday and OMG!
I don't seem to get the throat hit I thought but the flavor is amazing to say the least.
Maybe because I got the Long Barrel and a drip tip so it is cooler vape. Also still learning how to use it.
Unfortunately i'm low on juice until tomorrow so I do not have my favorites right now.
Can't wait for my shipment tomorrow to taste some Camtel and Blueberry Coconut from FSUSA.

Just an update.

I'm on 7 weeks with the same 357. On Sunday, the day I turned Vet here no less, I absolutely fried the thing. I had my Grand and keys in my jacket pocket. I sat down and somehow the keys got on top of the fire button. And it did fire...and fire..and fire. I smelled the burn and felt the heat all about the same time.

I pulled it out of my pocket and took off the drip tip. It was crusty black inside. It worked, but tasted terrible. I gave it a long soak in 99% iso, gently knocked the burnt crust off the top of the atty, soaked it another hour, blew it out, let it dry, primed it up, and vaped away. Works just fine.

As far as atties go, I've never had a better one.

Well :censored: I just had a 2ohm 357 go cold on me after just 2 weeks use. That bites! I usually get great life spans outa my attys. In all fairness, I did push this puppy at 6V for one evening a week or so ago. I don't know if that's relevant or not but who knows? Hmmm...2 weeks doesn't justify the price for these puppies.

I'm back to a 1.5 306. After the 357, I'm finding this 306 to be a little tight and with less flavor and vapor...sigh...

Just_a_quick_question:

Should_I_bother_trying_a_1.5ohm_on_my_mini?

I_am_using_a_2.0ohm_now_with_excellent_results,_but_it_has_been_suggested_to_me_by_a_couple_of_members_to_check_out_the_LR_357.

My_only_concern_is_the_2.0_gets_a_bit_warm_on_the_standard_14500.

HH 357 1.5 ohm attys is all I use on my Mini and they are great. The 14500 batteries are 3.7 volt (4.1 coming off the charger) and that's about right for 1.5 ohm attys. I love them on my Mini.

Heh heh...and I take it that 18 watts is not a good thing? LOL OK, I'll chalk this one up to user stupidity and try another one. :)

I have read that 6 to 8 watts is the "sweet spot" for most vapers. I'd say 9 to 12 watts isn't too uncommon as a preference.

18 watts, however, is kind of nuts. :laugh:

:lol: Yeah, it was a bit of overkill. HA! That's why that experiment only lasted a coupla hours. Thanks for the info, Tripp!

I almost went with the 2.0 when I bought my first HH357, but on the advice of people here I went with the 1.5. It is not too warm for me. The flavor is very good, especially after a nice break-in period.
