Reviewer comments on business characteristics

This atomizer is made for one purpose: the rendering of flavors.
Dressed in 304 stainless steel and pmma for the tank, all the parts of the Phenomenon are held by orings and the assemblies are perfect.
As for the 510 pine, it is made of brass to guarantee a low electrical resistance.
There are several finishes to match the aesthetics of your favorite mod: either polished, brushed, or gold (for brass mod fans)… everything looks great, and the choice will be difficult.

A real goldsmith's work for this atomizer, entirely handmade in Greece in the family business.

Reviewer's comments on functional features

The Phenomenon is well thought out. First, its bell will allow you to adjust the arrival of e-liquid according to its viscosity.

Its top-cap has two holes for the rapid filling of the ato whose use and access do not require any tools.

Only the reassembly of the resistance will force you to empty the tank.

The mood ticket of the reviewer

It's no longer a secret, Gus' work is known and recognized for its quality and finish.
The Phenomenon remains in the qualitative lineage of its predecessors.

Here, no crazy engineering, no rotation system on Teflon pad, no blah, no fuss, no superfluous. The Phenomenom is simple, beautiful and effective.

The airflow adjustment will be done in a trivial way: It will suffice to rotate the tank mounted on orings on itself.

phenomenon_airflow2phenomenon_airflow3

The grip is immediate, the assembly a breeze but all this is nothing. What I like most about this ato is its “RENDER” sound. Here we have the master of flavors !!

The rendering, the rendering is simply… incredible !!
Very few atomizers can claim to be so good on this specific point.
If you are looking for a tasting atomizer, look no further, the Phenomenon is for you!

Another big thank you to Mario from Gus for allowing me to discover this superb atomizer.

Looking forward to reading you.

Toff.
