Not a Spheroid

[fagin]

My main vapes are Touchwoods with genesis atties but for driving, cycling and general outdoors stuff I use a Sentinel mod with either Boges or Evods but I wanted something rebuildable portable and fairly tough.

Like a lot of people, I want to try a Spheroid, and like a lot of people I don't have a lot of money.
So like a lot of people I've been hunting a cheap second hand one, and like a lot of people, not finding one, or dithering because even the ones that do come up are expensive.

So I looked at alternatives, like this allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/36494/dream-spheroid?page=1&scrollTo=636178 but I have a Hero Hybrid (the atty bit is basically a Dream), and whilst I managed to get it to work ok, I'm not a big fan of using pins to hold the coil.

The A7 Oid looks like a decent option to convert an A7 atty (Phoenix) but can't find any in stock in the UK and postage from the US doubles the price (anyone interested in a group buy?)

So I carried on Googling, and found the Todd Oid. Basically take the air tube from a Protank or Evod head, shorten it, force it into a plastic drip tip, pack the Phoenix out with wadding and away you go.

Made one tonight and it actually works rather well. Some wicking issues, but I am just using the old microcoil and silica wick I was using for dripping, and I don't have any Sera wool or Juwel pads so I just stuffed cotton wool inside.

Will get some decent wadding next week and play some more but at £15 plus some random bits, it looks good, is cheap, and the Phoenix is a great little dripping atty, so once with a bit of fiddling I have no doubt it will be a great vape.

Compared to the RSST it is a far more sensible portable size.




TL/DR version

This


And this


Thanks Todd.

£8:34 here.... pink-mule.com/v%C3%A6skebeholdere/rebuildable-atomizere-rba/zeus-rebuildable-atomizer?site_language= postage could be a killer though, anyone bought from them & know their typical postal charges?

Got an A7 with the Captivape 'Oid' bit, works a treat.

Easiest to get the one from Vapingthings for £15 with free postage.

Tha Vapingthings one is probably the most suitable for modding as it takes air in the bottom and up through the coil, which you can build below the top of the posts. A lot of similar ones have air holes in the sides, and the coils higher, so they'll interfere with any filler.

I've got one (unused) you can have for £12 posted if you'd like. Bought it from vapingthings (as mentioned above) but never bothered to use it.

Thanks to lush for a rather generous chunk of Sera wool it's a great improvement, with no dry hits, and been going for a good few hours so far on a fill.
With a bit of experimenting over the weekend with wicks and coils I think it will be a winner.
