New silver screwdriver MK2 with Tank kit Has arriv

[birdy]

New screwdriver now in use - Lanyards fitted 1 battery charged and away we go .First attempt was made using standard supplied atty with small cartridge - filled with my fav Blueberry and away i went ,No vapour whatsoever ,again i puffed and again no vape simultaneous thought of this is a duffer with whats that on the table beside me ? .Jeez i had only forgot to insert the newly charged Battery (its my age ) so battery inserted and another attempt made - good vapour and flavour but not much in the way of throat hit so i will persevere it may just be newness and get better as atty wears in .Will try tank attachment later with the supplied extra high nicotine tobbacco liquid.Watch this space.

Try using LR attys or cartos with it,you will get a much better vape then.As for the tanks,i used to use the ones from TW and they never gave me much throat hit,not even the LRs.Much better products are out there tbh,try Boge or Smoketech cartomisers and LR901 atomisers would be my advice.Glad you are enjoying your new SD though.

Lol Birdy!

Assuming it's a 901 SD . . . 901's can take a bit of use to get fully going.

The nicotine strength & ejuice mix will also affect what throat you get.

Tried 2nd flavour in same cartridge now on Cherry (Both flavs freedom Vape PG/VG med nic.Same result as with blueberry good vap and taste but throat hit not as effective as same liquids using Riva .Another annoying thing is when removing cart to top up the fibre is normally stuck to atty filament so is lpulled out of cart as it is removed and this after only 1/2 a doz puffs .

The blue foam is better for carts I find Birdy, you don't get any annoying bits of fibre stuck to your atomiser with that.

James at Paradise Vape stocks it, I'll have a look for a link . . . it does also sound as if a Low Resistance atomiser would also give you a better throat hit, there's a bit more oomphage with them.

Dont know what the standard atties are that came with SD but maybe not LR .I am a bit wary about using LRs as i hear unless the OHMs are of suitably high figure then the batteries can be damaged by short circuit be being made to work too hard.Got some clearomisers with SD so no doubt will have had my first go with one of those over next couple of days along with Tank .

[birdy]

Got some blue foam - about 6sq inches ,Is it a particular type because my best buddy works for the biggest foam manufacturer in the country so i may be able to get him to supply some.

[Perpetua]

You'll be fine with LR's on your Screwdriver Birdy . . . the batteries can handle them quite happily. . . I don't use anything else on mine.

The sort of foam that's suitable to use is similar to Aquarium filter foam, as opposed to the spongey type. . . . so you'll be made if that's the stuff your friend has access to.

Just tried new screwdriver with the tank - used the supplied extra high nicotine liquid ,first couple of puffs were a little feeble plenty of vapour but almost no throat hit and then it improved to good all round vapour and throat hit although it has to be said i was not particularly taken with the flavour .Are the atomisers LR that are supplied with tank conversion ?

[Perpetua]

I don't think that they are Birdy . . . although I didn't find a huge difference between the standard & LR Tank atomisers if I'm honest.

[deesigner]

Agree with Perpy, I've been using my SD for almost a year and exclusively with LR atties, standard atties just don't cut it for me. I've also used the dual coil atties with a 510 adaptor, they give the same sort of vape as LR for me

[birdy]

I am using all the time now my SD with Tornado - Tank adapter. How long should i expect the atomiser section to last .

[Perpetua]

How long is a piece of string is the answer to that one Birdy, my first Tank atomiser lasted over 2 months, before it wimped off . . . my second lasted barely 2 weeks . . . it's a known unknown from my experience.

Just ordered another 2 from my fav supplier Freedom Vape
