Got the Sat22 yesterday from 3f Vape, extra fast delivery! This is the YFTK version, as i decided to get one of these to give it a try, and see if i liked it enough to start the long hunt for an authentic one. Very well built, and the finishing is excellent as usual from them. Should work well on the SatMod 14500 version i have on its way from the manufacturer to me, from the latest group buy. Decided to pop a build on it this morning..but found that i was out of 200Sf mesh which is one of my favourites for building Genisis wicks.. So decided to use some SS rope and 325 mesh on top under the coil.. Build the coil using my usual 28 gauge kanthal, coming out at 0.88 ohms, and it seems to be wicking great so far.. I always did find that ss rope and a mesh topper under the coil works well for most genisis attys that have this sort of layout..similar to the Rocket R, MCR303 etc.. and this one is no exception at all. The flavour from this atty is very good..simple to build on and very stable so far.. time will tell if this build is ok, but meanwhile i am ordering some more mesh from StealthVape..just in case! Verdict so far....excellent atty.   |

Been using this atty now for about a day and a half...long enough to know what its like, and if it suits me. I told you the simple build i did in this above, and have to say that now it 's bedded in a tad, the taste is superb. Its a fairly tight draw with two stacked air holes right next to the wick, so the air intake goes directly onto the hot mesh...hence the great flavour from this. The built quality from this YFTK version is first class.. everything fits very well, and all the threads etc are very well done.
Have to say that i have been using this as my only atty since i built it, and i can see that continuing, as i really am enjoying the vape from it. The only problem with this one, is that now i know how these vape, i will start to see if i can find an original one to purchase....so its going to cost me!! and it could be a long search as i just don't see many come up for sale anywhere....still it will be worth the wait, and of course i have this excellent atty to use until i find one. If you haven't tried a mesh atty yet, this one could be a great one to start with..

I think you gotta a pretty good chance of snagging an original..I see them getting traded around....there weren't a ton of Sats made though...it has a tight draw and it heats up fast, so it's an atty that has a definite niche.It always reminded me of the micro-mini from doc dave....It hard to say alot of stuff people want not so much to vape on .but just to put into their collections on a shelf, and the Satburn was one of those "unicorn" atties.You never know, I guy once gifted me a Hellfire,because I gifted him something..... |

I always liked the Sat22 - was my unicorn many moons ago. Never managed to get an original (rare as hen's teeth, they were), so settled for a couple of clones. Maybe I should dust off some of the old Gennies.......
