    dual coils and the sigelei 8

    Your battery isn't making contact with the top and bottom post. Re-adjust the posts and it would be a wise idea to clean the contacts.

    Bear Brass Mods! Show em off!

    How do these perform compared to a Caravela, Chi You, GP PAPS, or Nemesis? I want to buy one if he produces them with stainless steel tubes. Not a fan of Copper and Brass together.

    Question on removing Sigelei #8 switch (easy)

    Yeah, pliers don't really work well because they can't grip very well. I've learned that you need to use something like small vise grips, so that it locks down on the part you are trying to unscrew. The firing pin has threading on the end inside the switch, but the top button spins it when you...

    Question on removing Sigelei #8 switch (easy)

    It's not reverse threaded. Careful, I snapped the firing pin inside the button while trying to twist because they put loctite in the button. Soak it in something that breaks down loctite. Use rubber vise grips to grab the firing pin inside the tube and the top button. Hold one end so it...

    Sigelei Mechnical Mods

    Never used it as a tank. I bought it solely as a dripper until I knew I could replace the spring inside the tank shaft. If you try to run a sub ohm setup on it, the spring just turns black and collapses. I actually had a guy cut some brass tube for me since I don't really have anything to...

    BearBrass Roll Call

    If these came with stainless steel tubes, I'd definitely be interested in one. How do these compare to the GP PAPS, Nemesis, or Chi You?

    What kind of cotton are you using for rebuilding wicks?

    Does cheesecloth wick better than cotton yarn? Does it singe easily?

    AGI 2-in-1

    My AGI in dripper mode isn't making contact with my positive post. It makes contact if I set it up in genesis mode, but I want to use a dripper. I'm using a Sigelei #8 as my mod.

    Blown away by Vapor Tek USA

    I was speaking with the owner John today about the new Sigelei Caravela clone that is now available for preorder. This morning, I helped him with listing the Caravela and he told me that he was going to send me one for free for helping him out. Holy crap! How much nicer can a vendor be? They are...

    Sigelei Mechnical Mods

    Vapor Tek USA is the nicest vendor I have ever done business with. After speaking with the owner John through email, he told me that he was going to send me a free Sigelei Caravela for helping him out on listing the mod. I also sent feedback to him about the issues we wanted resolved with the...
