Ok, I'm sick of my other vaping methods. (thread all about this here ). I've tried cartos, CE2s, a Vivi Nova, and tanks. Basically all have pluses and minuses, but none of them are a fit for me. What I have recently discovered is dripping. Got a 306 atty at the suggestion of other ECF folks and I am freaking in love! Only problem is dripping is a pain. Not bad at home but its inconvenient at work, reckless in the car, and impossible in the dark at night on my porch. This has lead me to rebuildables/repairables because from what I gather these are almost, if not exactly, like dripping. Some claim its better because each hit is consistent unlike with dripping.
What is out there? I'm Looking for a round up of rebuildables/repairables along with the pros/cons of each.
So far I know about:
-Odysseus/Penelope:
Looks awesome. Has air flow control and juice flow control. Doesn't look hard to build. Only question I would have is if the silica wick pollutes the taste any. I've also would guess you could use something else as a wick, but I'm just guessing. I also wish you could see your juice level.
-DID Genesis:
Looks great. The SS wick should be tasteless as long as it's oxidized, and I love that you can see your juice level. It doesn't seem to have air or juice flow control, and I have my doubts about how well the SS wick will work only using capillary action. It also looks rather, um... involved to build.
-Vivi Nova / CE5 "stardusts":
Personally, I don't see how these count. Its more of a replaceable head rather than rebuildable. If you did rebuild it, it would be more like Vivi Nova moding... For me these have a horrible plastic taste. From what I gather, its because the entire length of the wire is hot including where it goes through the seal, which is where the taste comes from.
Are these the only four products? I haven't scoured the forums yet, but I'm planning to, but most threads seem to be about a specific topic. I want to round up my options into one place if anyone is willing to help.
Thanks!
Edit: All of the above are good products, but keep in mind that the benchmark I'm using here is dripping... (which is awesome)
