Using an M201 Atty on the Prodigy?

[Synthnadz]

I've recently fallen in love with the M201 atomizer on one of my 3.7v mods - what an awesome atty. It's like what an 801 'should be', as far as I'm concerned. As such, I'm really interested in finding a way to make these work on my Prodigy. Hopefully it's possible.

Since there are no holes for airflow on the 201 (it all runs through the center post), I'm assuming that a hole would have to be drilled into the atty in order to make it work. Does anyone know how to do this properly? I'm specifically interested to hear if anyone has tried this before and had success.

Thanks in advance!

You may be able to adjust your center post out enough to allow airflow through the threads of the adapter into the bottom of the atty.

I don't use them though, so i would wait til someone who uses them answers before pulling out the drill or hammer.

Hello Gibby,

Actually, the center channel of the atty will be totally covered by the center post of the Prodigy adapter, so no air will get in regardless of the post height. So, the air is going to have to come from elsewhere. I do appreciate your input though. =]

haha, you know, good point, i never was any good at rocket science.

dang!

Synthnadz ...

All you need is a drill, and some skills

Drill the center post down, and drill the side right underneath the threads. You make what looks like an "L" It then draws air down the middle and out the side ... This way, channel is still sealed for all your dripping pleasure and you get plenty of airflow!

I'd say don't even bother. M201's absolutely rock at 3.7v, but all three of the ones I had were dead within ten minutes at high voltage. Granted, I tried with a six volt mod.

Ah - you seem to be talking about drilling my 801 adapter, not the atty itself. As tempting as it is, I'm probably not going to try it as I cannot afford to screw up and be without an adapter. What temptation though. =]

Have you done this yourself Steve? I'm curious as to how damn easy and foolproof it is. I mean, I have a drill and I'm pretty crafty, but I have no room for a margin of error here. ;-)

That being said, is the idea of drilling a hole in the atty a complete wash?

Thanks so much!

or cause you're just a newbie Zo!!! LOL

But, you make a very valid point ... M201 atomizer is the best Penstyle atomizer I have ever used ... and I have only ever used it at 3.7v ...

Not to the M201 ... But we did experiment with the 401 when trying to perfect it, and that is exactly what we did. Granted, this was on a Press/Mill and not with just your run of the mill drill ... (man ... my rhymes are good today ... LOL)

Can it be done = Yes ... If you do decide to give it a shot ... Make sure to pull the brass out of the adapter housing first ....

As far as drilling the atty .... I have no idea brother ....

Thanks for the heads up - perhaps this isn't worth pursuing after all.

It's a shame though - someone needs to do whatever they've done in designing these 201's and apply it to the 801's. The 201 wicks amazingly well, takes tons of liquid without flooding, and gives off incredible vapor. In all truth, I get as much fog from my 201 at 3.7 as I do from my BE112's on the Prodigy at 5v.

Seems like the 201 is an 'update' to the 801 design in every sense. Too bad they don't work on sealed mods without surgery. =]

unless you used a mod that has an adapter with an adjustable air flow valve...
