Fogger v2 woes.....

[chrisjw]

Well, I've persevered & persevered with this, but just cannot get a satisfying vape out of it.......It doesn't matter how I wick it, the vape is really airy, even with the air control closed & I can't fathom out why.......It's also as if a small amount of juice is getting sucked up the drip tip.....it's barely noticeable, but it's there nonetheless....I can taste it......I really want to like this atty, but I'm finding it difficult.....Is it something I'm doing wrong???
The way I have it set up is this:
2 x 2mm silica coiled together with 0.20 kanthal & 4/5 wraps showing 1.6 ohms.......The lower wick is coiled around the bottom of the inside of the chamber & the upper wick is resting each side of the channels & protruding approx 1-2mm & resting on the outer o-ring ( I replaced the white one that came with it, for a thicker black rubber one)with the funnel screwed down on top of it.....even my juices have little taste, compared to the KFL, Magoo & Nautilus.........Is anyone else experiencing this?

That sounds like the way i build it, sounds like a faulty Fogger if you say when the air holes are closed it's still airy

I was starting to think the same thing Jason, as everyone else is singing it's praises.........

chrisjw maybe something in this picture is missing with the base part, it's all i can think of if air is still getting through:

I haven't attempted to take it apart as yet, as blakey seemed to be having problems doing so

I destroyed one trying to get the bugga apart mate- don't go there

I removed that O-ring altogether from the inner chimney chris, was tasting the o-ring in the juice went with 1.5mm wick with a 2mm buffer
You need the coil to be 1mm above the central airhole to get any real flavour from these atties chris but be very careful because if that coil touches the base then you'll have a short on your hands!

OK mate.........I'll give that a go.......I was getting leaks before, without the o-ring, but I'll try again.

If it leaks without the o-ring then you just need a little more wick mate

[chrisjw]

Well.......if anything, it's worse..got lots of gurgling & really airy..........& it's leaking..........classified bound methinks.......

Drop it off to me Chris, if you are passing by this way..

I watched Todd's review on this and I am sure he spent hours trying to get it to work??? I know when it worked he enjoyed it, but is it really worth the effort?

Mine has worked out of the box, so i would say yes if you get one that works out of the box

I spent a long time trying out different methods of wicking it but once I got some cotton and a microcoil in there, it never failed me

To be perfectly honest, it has the same kind of wicking issues as the SQuape and the taifun GT but once you get it nailed, lovely

[mully]

Couldn't get the base apart but gotta say it's been spot on with my first wick n coil (2 x 2mm eko)... only issue is spitting at times, but 3 tanks through it this week and continues to deliver:)

Filling tip: fully close air control and block chimney with finger while filling to prevent flooding
