Reviewer comments on business characteristics

Youde never stops releasing new atos. After the Goblin, the Goblin mini m, the Goliath, it's the turn of the Bellus. Youde is a low cost brand that produces inexpensive atomizers whose design is not always perfect. But, for some time, things are improving. No more hard-to-tame genesis, Youde does in the rebuildable bell tank like the Goblin which is very successful.

The Bellus itself benefits from real novelties. Interesting on paper, will this product be as effective as it is economically accessible?

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality

This Bellus is not badly drawn. A fairly thin top cap, a simple pyrex tank (be careful, it is exposed to shocks). Its large base accommodates an airflow ring marked with its name and pierced with a multitude of small holes. By the way, it is a bit loose and turns a bit too easily. The whole forms a harmonious whole, wise but not bland.

The quality of the metals is correct in view of the price, the machining could be improved on the level of the screw threads, in particular that of the top cap which gives access to the filling from the top.

UD bellus burst
The 510 connection hangs on some of my mods.

You have to unscrew a ring at the bottom of the ato to release the plate, which is held by an O-ring. The tray has studs, designed to accommodate one or two coils. At this time, we notice the innovative side of the atomizer, since we can also remove the air flow adjustment ring and see the two beautiful air inlets that give directly into the chamber of atomization. Then, if we turn the tank over, we see the two large juice arrivals.

This Bellus looks promising, even if I find the arrival of the juice a little “huge”, which announces a dosage of fiber a little cotton (and a pun in the end, one!).

Reviewer's comments on functional features

The Bellus accommodates one or two resistances. In the bag of seals accompanying the ato, you will find the accessories to neutralize the arrival of juice on the unused side in case of use in single coil. The airflow goes from airy to a little tight. The filling is done from the top. The Bellus can be completely disassembled, which makes cleaning easier. It is a bell type atomizer, flavor and vapor oriented. The pyrex tank seems well sized and the 5 ml offer a correct autonomy.

The chimney and the drip-tip are hollowed out with a small spiral channel, which partly limits the risk of ingesting the residual liquid from the condensation.

  • Drip tip type: 510 Only
  • Presence of a Drip-Tip? Yes, the vaper can immediately use the product
  • Length and type of drip-tip present: Short

Reviewer's comments on the Drip-Tip

The drip-tip is simple but it is perfectly suited aesthetically, even if a little too short for my taste. The diameter is perfect for the type of ato vape.

Reviewer's comments on conditioning

The usual rectangular transparent plastic box with rounded edges common to some Youde atomizers. It's okay considering the price. A bag of gaskets, coils, cotton and a spare tank… it's complete. Notice? Yes and no, we will be satisfied with an exploded view of the product and a small explanation of the filling. It's a bit tight to my taste. I would have liked a notice on the assembly of the coils, with recommendations for the maximum diameter type of resistances or information on the placement of the cotton ...

Reviewer's comments on the use of the product

UD bellus base 2

The assembly of the coils on the plate is quite simple, but be careful not to exceed 2,5 mm in diameter. It is the cotton which is harder to dose, the juice arrivals are enormous. My first assembly and filling resulted in a flood in order from the airflows. First point: use a consumable that is not too capillary. If, even with this advice, it turns to flight, try to do as I did: I adopted a simple and effective solution (?). I cut a 2mm wide strip of density 2 Fiber Freaks, then I inserted it into the channel that feeds the bell in the bottom of the tank (a photo will speak louder than words)

UD bellus solution cotton
With this solution, no more problems. So if like me you have dosage concerns, give it a try, it should make your life easier.
For the rest, the filling is simple and practical. The only downside: the top cap cover, the screw thread of which is not always easy to find.

UD bellus filling
Of medium size, this ato is not too bulky while offering a decent autonomy.
The airflow is easily adjusted but the ring is not sufficiently maintained by the O-rings, especially since they are lubricated by the condensation which forms at the level of the air supply holes.

UD bellus air flow
In conclusion, a simple and effective atomizer when you have solved the main problem of the arrival of juice but once again the little trick that I offer you should help you to tame it.

The mood ticket of the reviewer

I still have a little apprehension when an atomizer from Youde lands at my house. Either it works very well, or it's a bit chaotic because not completely successful.

For the Bellus, we can say that it was badly crossed. Easy assembly, I dose the cotton generously (not quite obviously), I open the air I pull a bar and bingo! Hands full! I knew there would be problems.
In the end after the little “hacking” explained above, this Bellus gave me a nice airy and greedy vape, which does not spoil anything.

The easy filling will finish depicting an already very nice picture.

Overall, I really enjoyed this inexpensive atomizer, which compares to higher class atomizers in terms of vape sensations.

In terms of quality, it is consistent with the posted price.

A real good deal. So if your bank account tells you stop and despite everything you cross the barrier, don't break the bank, go for the Bellus, this unpretentious atomizer is not without interest.

Thanks to the Little Vapoteur
