Warning!!! Re: "Hybrid Bottom Feeder Atties" from Vapage on Reo mods.

The post is raised actually, I believe it is the venture which is changeable to adjust the draw(when the new ones are released).
Sorry about the pic it saved on my PC 1.5mb when i uploaded it it is only 20kb.


Black is around venture, Red is the hole in the venture for airflow.

If you go and look at this link:Vmod Manual you can see the venture.

Hey Biz... is the center post on that battery connector recessed and tapered to match up with the BF Hybrid atty? No offense, but it's hard to tell from your picture.

I just looked on their site and don't see a picture of the connection.

So what is the recommendation here don't use them at all? I don't wanna fry my mini. At the same time they are kick but atties.

hi shelbee, i guess i didn't make it to lie down yet. ... use at your own risk. check and see if the center post is raised. check the dedicated thread about these attys and see if you can find the solution posted by AG

 

[Shelbeethehmmrgirl]

Nothing appears to be wobbly. Guess I will look up the thread. I am in full panic mode lol sorry if I seem to be over bearing I just hot my mini hitting perfect with these I don't wanna go back to not using it at all cause none of the other atties hit right too tight of a draw.

 

[tybin]

well, if it hasn't happened yet... perhaps your post is not sticking up all the way like the picture

 

[Shelbeethehmmrgirl]

Sure looks like it is I smashed on the coffee table to be sure it was seated but I am only screwing it in to make contact then just a 1/8th of a turn more. Not tightening it down

That's what we did while testing it...not turning more than necessary. We did not cook our mod, but I can't guarantee that it still won't cook it. We ran it for about 3 days and then set the atty aside.

Awesome...thank you, Bizrad!

 

[Shelbeethehmmrgirl]

I wonder in the long term how they will work. I am wondering due to the tapering if they just aren't getting screwed on too tight and the right movement causes them to make connection. Maybe I will be the experment and try long term and see.

Okay...here is the beginning of the discussion about the center post sticking out. Perhaps this information will be useful to some of you. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...k-hybrid-306-510-atomizer-24.html#post3672989

here is a post that may help

The Vapage Hybrid has a floating center pin. If you try to screw it down, & it won't go all the way on...push the atty down firmly on a flat surface to push the pin all of the way into the atomizer. The pin has a lip on it, so you can't really push it in too far.

I've played around with several of them & this completely addresses the issue, until someone makes me aware of their particular problem.

Feel free to post this anywhere applicable:

Something was just brought to my attention. The BF Hybrid has an interchangeable center pin. It was designed that way, so the venturi could be changed to adjust the draw. On some of the BF Hybrids, the center pin may not be completely seated. This is probably due to vibration during shipping. Before installing it on your mod, press the bottom (threaded end) of the BF Hybrid firmly on a hard surface to ensure it is seated all the way inside the atomizer. This is ONLY on the BF Hybrid. The Standard Hybrid does NOT have this feature.

Well I shoved both mine down don't look like they moved much but they did go in a little bit. Still using it with no issues. Will keep on using it to see what happens now I am curious if that is the issue because if you really look at it other than being rounded and sticking out a bit farther it makes the same contact when screwing it on.

 

[Rhapsodies Fire]

Could be....we've got more messing around to do with ours.

 

[Shelbeethehmmrgirl]

I will keep you updated with mine as well. I accept full reasonability for it and will pay for any repairs if I have a melt down. I am using my mini for work and have back up mods if it goes down. I am just in experiment mode lol

 

[Katdarling]

Keeping an eye on this thread and all of your experiences. I did not fry my Reo Mini but had a prob with correct squonking with the hybrid atty. This atty, to me, is fantastic, and paired perfectly for the mod it was made. (The VMOD)

Hopefully, someone will come up with a happy marriage for those that love this atty and love their Reos.

Thanks to MAlzado for turning me on to this thread.


Good vapes~

after purchasing on the cannon first run, i've pretty much decided to hold off on all first atty runs again until the kinks can be worked out

I'm an early adopter for sure when it comes to technology

Sure I'll buy that new 400 dollar item that could screw my 3,000 dollar computer .... no problem

But I'm not buying a 9 dollar atty that could screw my 160 dollar woodvil

Priorities man !!
