Ughhhhh run away from it. Run as fast as you can. Wait for the 5.1 or whatever that goes back to screw posts. The one I received got promptly shipped back for refund. The push button posts aren't strong enough to keep coils in place. And the negative post is turned about 90 degrees off. It was so bad that the resistance was all over the place just tapping the side. Worst design ever.

Are the holes in your posts like the ones in the photo below, where it seems like you can't thread the wire completely to the other side?
Yea expect to see 5.1,5.2,5.3,5.4 etc again
People been asking for holes in posts to make it easier to connect coils, but they messed it up with the spring screws, I love my foggers, but I am not going to trust a little spring to hold my coil when running at 0.50ohms, sure hope the 5.1 version comes pretty fast with the holes still but with proper screws on the posts.

Oh my god i just got mine and how much I hate it.. This thing is so bad... First of the the push in posts are not strong enough to hold the coils in place.. Second it hurts my fingers trying to push down the post when trying to get my coils in those small holes.. Third.. The damn deck is so small.. It is so hard to build a dual coil on that deck without them touching the chimney and shorting the coil out. And you can't get them close to the deck cause the damn posts aren't strong enough to hold them in place.. I am so unhappy with this thing.. Run away! Run away as fast as you can!
yep
Orchid for sure. Soooo good and just works. Check out Orchid Modification thread to expand your options.
I have found out, they also provide normal screws you can use to replace the spring loaded posts, IMO they should have them installed when packaged and then had the spring posts in the extras, as seems people don't know you can take them springs out and replace with screws instead.
How did I not notice those screws in the bagg.. Dude, I was just packing up my fogger to return when i got your reply. i opened it back up and sure enough the little screws make a perfect fit.. Guess i will not be returning after all.. good save man... these screws make all the difference.
No it still has the holes in the posts, so makes it a lot easier to mount your coils.
Yea I read your post yesterday about you sending it back, hence why I thought I should put the info about the screws here

Well i just finished my first build on it.. Ended up at a .9. I don't know.. It doesn't really produce anymore vapor then my kayfun. And it doesn't produce that crackle pop sound like my kayfun which takes away from the enjoyment some how.. Also is producing harsh vapor.. Probably not building it right.. Will have to try a few more builds..
I have 3 foggers, and they are a lot better than kayfuns, but I also build a lot lower on the foggers compared to the kayfun though. But should still be better if even around the same resistance, as have better air flow with the fogger.

My fogger V5 arrived on Friday. I have 2 fogger V4.1 from AngelCigs so I can only compare it to this version. I have only done one build on it and first impressions are its not for me. The push-pin posts are a joke, I had a hell of a time getting a single coil 28g through the holes however getting 2 coils making a dual coil build seemed next to impossible. That said, I realized I could remove the push-pins and use the screws that came with the unit which I assume they are for replacing the push-pin. So after building a dual coil and putting the tank back together I attempted to fill the tank using the new fill hole on the top. To my surprise the fill-hole is so small the only way to fill this is with a syringe style fill. With the fogger 4.1's I can fill with any dripper style bottle without issues. Also, my impressions this thing holds less juice than the V4. I did not look up the stats however to me it seemed it could hold as less as 2ml juice compared to the 4.1, maybe I am wrong however it did seem that way when filling it. The 3rd issue I have with this tank is its even taller than the Fogger V4. Overall, I did not find the vape to be any better than the 4.1 however I only vaped on it for an hour or so. I was so disappointed by the push-pins, fill hole, slightly taller tank I emptied the tank and switched back to the 4.1 within 1 hour of use. I really wanted to like this tank however it have major flows. I have a Orchid V3 and V4 on the way hoping one of these will replace my fogger v4.1

My v5 is going back Monday for all the same problems. Especially the build deck being so small its easy to short on the chimney. But if you make a coil with less wraps it doesn't want to stay in the screwed in posts. But more wraps hit the chimney. Top fill only syringe is not such a great design either. The Orchid is still the winner.

Shit, I just got a orchid v2 and now theres a 3 and 4? WTF?[/quote][/quote]
[/quote][/QUOTE]
Orchid V3 is no functional improvement over V2, just a different style tank, top cap and drip tip. Dumb version "upgrade" IMO. V4 will have a bigger tank about the size of a Kayfun. You're set @Midniteoyl. You're better off improving and customizing with Kayfun or Taifun GT parts. Check out the Orchid Modification thread.

Ahh.. I see. thanks. Looked them up.. I know my EHPro KFL+ v2 Nano M tank fit the Orchid v2 already.. Looks good too. Slightly less capacity though
