Mostly yes, but one sure way of getting my T3s to flood (when I still used them) was to run it with a dying battery. It took me a few times to realize, but once the coil is no longer getting proper power, the juice doesn't vaporize fast enough and the coil floods.
It is usual to have both lovers and haters on any atomizer thread. I don't think it is just variance of build quality. People vape in so many different ways (drag length, strength etc) that some atomizers just don't work for some people. I saw this at a vape meet. Most people loved the Z-Atty on a mechanical mod at 20W or so, but one person got barely any vapor out of it. And even I liked my own rebuilt Vivi Nova Minis better.
The only thing about vapeonly heads that aren't very dry burn friendly. The tank screwed down helps the head make positive contact with the base. I think these are more for a quick wash or alcohol dip and no dry burning whatsoever.
the draw is very tight and im getting flooded, its like a juice straw to me. any way i can drill out the airholes or will it ruin it
Anyone found a good source for replacement heads? Best price I've found so far is $2.95 per head.
Not yet... Found that same price too. Wait a little, with those prices I'll stick to the T3 for a long while
I actually was able to make mine work like a phenom and dare I say better than my Nova?!? I was down to the last head trying to rebuild them to get them to function better (like it should have from the get go) and figured I am about to tear it apart anyway, so I gently pulled out a strand of silica from the stock head and put some juice back in it and wamo bamo, it was hitting like a champ and not flooding or gurgling at all, and most of all NO burnt taste. I am running the 1.8ohm head at 8.0w (3.79v) on my eVic and it is thriving, big clouds and ZERO burnt taste. I can run it up to about 9.5w(4.13v) before I even get a burnt taste on the tail of a big pull, I have had a little gurgle when it sat over night but I merely cranked up the watts and burned off the excess and it was back to perfect.
So just pull 1, I repeat 1 strand out and give your Vapeonly another pull, you will love it. I really like how it works now, but I would imagine that pulling one more could screw you and have it gurgling again but if you are still getting dry hits you could try, but that is completely on you!!
oh yea another thing I do is change the tip out also, not a fan of the pull with the standard tip in

you need to find a place that sells replacements in a 5 pack, the place I get my replacement Nova heads from is only 10 bucks for 5 instead of the normal 2.50 to 3 apiece, really it is only like a dollar or so you save but a penny saved is a penny saved
Yeah. That's what I do for T3 and EVOD heads. But I haven't found a place that sells the MegaBCC heads in a five-pack.
If you're trying to save a few bucks.... Why not just buy wick and wire? Its pretty simple to wrap a coil around a wick, and make it work....
Otherwise.... Looks like you may have to pony up for the convenience factor...

my eyesight is really poor, and if I buy these is a matter of convenience. I love my Terminator C for a rebuildable... I want something that I won't cry if I lose or drop it.
Oh I'm thinking about getting into the recoiling thing. But I've had carpal tunnel in both of my hands and neither of 'em work the way they should. Numbness and pain linger. I can put up with it for a short while and then I'm shot. But the wannabe-electrical dork in me wants to give it a try anyway. I'm already perusing genesis style attys because those seem like they give you the biggest reward for your time and effort. When it comes to devices with ready-made heads though, I just want to be able to pop 'em back in when needed. I'm lazy that way.
I tried with these, just havent been able to find the magic spot where it wicks but doesnt flood. Just got in some more wick and wire in today so I might go back to the drawing board on this on. If I figure out the magic number I will post in here.
So, I let the tank that flooded soak in a cup of warm water... I was gonna clean it out and give it another shot, maybe with a new coil. I forgot about it soaking in the cup for a few days. When I took it out the paint on the tank was starting to flake off and it had weird chips or dents in it. Almost like my dog was chewing on it (but he isn't allowed in the vape cave).
So that one went in the trash.. I got 2 more still in the box I gotta try next.

What kind of fluid did you have in it??? Any pics of where the paint was coming off at?
Well... In my experience there are so many styles of vaping (pull length and strength etc) that a genesis style tank is definitely not for everyone. It wasn't for me. Definitely try one out if you want to, but I wouldn't trust any recommendation as a end-all-be-all solution.
I get the best vape I've ever gotten from anything out of a Vapeonly BCC with a Spheroid setup, "Vapeonloid". No leaking even in the winter, and can be stored and vaped in any position. I am advanced in rebuilding an atty, but the Odysseus clones, modded DID clones, and even the Kayfun clone are just sitting in the box. Again, this is only for my personal vaping style, which is 3 second drags, from light to strong, 1-10 in a row.

I watched your video a few days (weeks?) ago and was really intrigued. I'm a long-pulling (5-9 seconds) chain vaper. And I was never a smoker so I'm just chasing the flavor dragon. I'm a klutz with my hands since carpal tunnel surgery (on both hands, one month apart) and can be dense, but your method is really interesting and unique.

btw, the prettiest and nicest girl i ever met was from Finland. She's "the one that got away" for me.
