Week 2 HH357

[Delilah718]

Oh shoot Loren, I'm so sorry to hear that! I guess I've been lucky but their failure rate is starting to trouble me...I'm not sure I'll reorder after the ones I have expire.

I wrote a glowing review and gave it 4 stars out of 5 in August last year, reserving the 5th star for longevity... and I've been lucky but I can't ignore the poor performance others are getting - doesn't look like they'll get that 5th star - I'm going to be more reserved about my enthusiasm from now on.

Well I wrote to Hanna as Tripp advised and he got back to me within 10 minutes. He said he would ship out a new one tomorrow and that I should return the bad one. Thats good customer service. I took the HH 357 off and but on a new Ressurector and thank goodness its a good one so I should survive until then new atty comes. I want a repairable, buildable bottomfed atty. What is taking that product so long?

 

[karmakatie]

I want to try this atty so bad, but I feel i should use up some of the supplies I have, cuz if I love it it will all go to waste

I'm several days in with a 2 ohm 357 long barrel. Vapor is good and the flavor is excellent. It just doesn't have much of a punch though at 3.7V. It's too airy. A 1.5 306 kicks its .....

On day 3 or so, she tightened up a bit. I'm cranking that puppy at 6V tonight. I have to take very short pulls because she heats up quickly. Very nice! I'm not sure that she'll last long taking this kinda abuse though...LOL

On a VV, this atty might rock!

Don't melt your Reo. I found it plenty hot at 3.7 but on VV or Vw I thinK it will be very nice indeed.

Good advise. Thanks! A melted REO would be a real heart-breaker. This is overkill. At 3.7, it's not enough. Maybe I'll just have to put it in mothballs until I have a VV...sigh...

I'm glad i read this thread - I thought it was just me. It's a lot tougher to blind squonk this atty than any other. The draw is ... well, different enough that I have trouble feeling the juice pulling in to it. I've only been using it since this afternoon, but the feel is going to take a lot of getting used to.

Before I ordered, I read a few people saying the 1.5 ohm burnt their VG juices a little at 3.7v. So I got a 2.0 ohm. A 2.0 ohm 510 is a little cool for me on 3.7v but a 2.0 ohm 306 is pretty warm, so I expected it to be like that. It isn't.. It produces that amount of vapor (like a 306), but much cooler (like a 510). Sort of leaves me wishing that it came in 1.8 ohm.

The other thing that I didn't really expect is the consumption rate. I expected it to consume juice like a 306. It doesn't. It consumes like a 510. Maybe that's the shorter draws. Or maybe it's the difference in airflow. I really don't know. This much vapor just seems like it should be using a lot more juice. That's good though. I'm happy about the consumption rate. I don't like to carry a bunch of supplies when i leave the house (carrying a bunch of supplies sort of defeats the purpose of a feeder, I think)

Flavor reproduction is top notch. That alone will keep me buying hh357s... but then, considering the mouth full of juice I got a couple of times from flooding, I sure hope I get a better feel for squonking it because I don't need flavor reproduction quite so real as just drinking my juices.

Nicotine delivery is also top notch. For the low consumption rate vs the big plumes of vapor, I'm still a little baffled - but I over did the nicotine and got myself a bit of a headache for the first time in many months. I can't remember the last time I got a nic headache. This is the first device in over a year to make me think I should either lower my nic level or vape a little less.

hh357 looks pretty much to be a winner on my REO (assuming I get a better feel for blind squonking it, anyway)

In my experience, you can't feel the blink squonk in a HH .357. Once you feel the resistance, it's flooded. You have to time it.

I have since emailed Hanna and he has held true with his customer service....Puff has (2) new HH's comin his way!!
That's fabulous Cust Srvc!!

I'm getting set to pass the one month mark with the shorty 1.5, and it's still performing great for me. I got a bit of spitting at first, and I still get an occasional flooding, but it's been the best vape that I've had to date.

I give it a soak once a week in Vodka, blow it out gently, prime it and vape. If I can just average a month with one of these, I will be very happy. Of course, more would be nice.

I used Cisco spec 2.0s, but ordered the 1.5 on the advice of experienced people here. The 1.5 doesn't burn too hot for me.
Six, if you have 5 volt batts, you might try the 2.0 at 5 volts, that will definitely give you a warmer vape, but it may be too much of a good thing.

Air flow seems to be part of the secret, as does surface area.

I prefer the 357 to my Lava Tube and carto tank set up.

My Reo Grand is once again sporting 2.0 .357 and I couldn't be happier. I waited too long and spent too much $ on other attys/cartos, but now I am back to vaping heaven!

I've been using cisco 1.8's up until now... and boge 1.8 cartos. I do have half a dozen 5.0v batts, but I'm using a mini. I spent my grand money on a vvpv so I won't have a grand until the end of next month (but then depending on the progress reports for the vv REO, I might just wait for that).

Well my adventures with the HH 357 did not end well. Ikenvape just got a new customer. I have to amend all previous posts concerning the HH 357. I take it all back...lol. To those that that the HH 357 worked out for them thats great but not for me. Happy vaping.

 

[gamedemon]

Mine spits so much, I gave up on it... I have the shorties and tried quite a few tricks to stop the spitting... no success so far

Sorry it didn't work out for you. If you are going back to 306s and don't already have one, take some of that extra money and invest in a Cherry Vape Cannon drip tip. I was always too cheap to splurge on one but compared to a $22 atty they're now reasonable. They make a huge difference and on my Cisco 1.5 306s rival a working HH 357 on heat and vapor, just a tad weaker on flavor. I assume they'd be just as good on the I06.
