Despite @Kaizer's words of caution about the size of the Velocity, it looked so interesting I had to give it a try. And @Sir Vape complied promptly.
This clone (Ivogo) comes with a bottom feed pin separately. The one in place consist of two parts - a smaller copper/brass adjustable screw and the the center pin, which also screws out. It screws into the foot of the positive post to help hold that post in place.
First I used my Dremel to cut off the top part of the bf pin - about 0.5 mm above the threads to ensure I do not damage the threads. Otherwise it would leave an ocean of juice in the well. Still leaves a layer of juice as the foot of the positive pin raises the squonk hole by about 1.5 mm. Do not know why the bf pin is so long as the non-bf one does not have that extra length.
The posts of the Velocity begs for vertical coils. I duly obeyed. Five wraps of 28 g Kanthal on a 2.5 mm ID mandrel came to 0.52 ohms.
Wicked with 3 mm Ceramic. The length of the atty makes space for a lot of wicking in the vertical position, which makes for less squonking.
Fills and drains quite adequately, but not mad about the juice layer remaining in the well. The well is big and it takes a lot of juice.
It is huge and has an overhang. On here you can see 3 of the 6 air holes going around the atomizer. They are all open or all partially closed or all fully closed. In the later case you have to use the horizontal air slots, which you cannot see in the picture directly below. Of course you can use both sets as well. With the big well, you are unlikely to have any leaking, even through the horizontal air slots. If you close these slots and only use the air holes above them, leaking is even less likely.
Here you can see the horizontal air slots. Only two of these. You can partially or fully close them.
The Velocity comes with a huge bore drip tip, but also with a drip tip adapter on which you can fit your normal drip tip of choice.
The Vape: It kicks like a mule, no matter what airflow you use. Too hectic for me at 0.5 ohms. The flavour is excellent and clouds can be as big as you like. I think direct to lung hitters will enjoy the Velocity.
If you can live with the size and some juice remaining in the well, this is a very good atomizer imo. Too big for me, shall use it as a backup. Quality seems good, could not pick up anything untoward.
