    opinions on wick

    are you using kanthal wire? do you change the coil when you change the wick? if not do you "dry burn" just the coil to remove the "gunk"?

    so i ran all of this information past an individual i personally know, who has PHD in chemistry. the person brought up and interesting point. a single flavor can contain hundreds if not thousands of different chemicals. these flavor chemicals when in combination with the chemicals produced...

    Best current RBA Tank on the market (for clouds)?

    i have seen sub ohm builds on RDAs around .9 ohms... the user had to wait a bit between drags and prime the wick before a big drag to prevent dry its. you might be able to use .3 ohm coils on some type of RDA but be prepared to make some real modifications to it. do you own a milling machine...

    without price being a concern...

    vape a lamp? an average wall socket puts out 110 volts at 20 amps. Volts x Amps = watts so 110 x 20 = 2016 watts... hope that helps put things in perspective.

    opinions on wick

    yeah check out this photo. these photos were taken after 2 mL of e-liquid was used. you can see cotton strands coming through the gaps in the coil, falling over on the coil and burning up... i was checking the coil periodically with my 30 x loop and it seemed like more strands would pop up...

    opinions on wick

    no, because you are still boiling off the VG. if we have a solution of %50 PG and %50 VG, and we heat that 50/50 solution to just above the boiling point of PG (188 C). the PG will boil off and leave the VG behind because VG has a boiling at a much higher temperature. VG boils at 290 C. Clearly...

    question for people to use cotton wicks.

    so here we see the micro coil after 2 mL of e-liquid. i noticed as i was checking on it in between puffs that strands of cotton are getting past the tiny gaps in the micro coil and are falling over on the top of the coil then burning up. also the red color is back but this time its all over the...

    question for people to use cotton wicks.

    boiling it would add more unwanted stuff to it... unless you used distilled water. its interesting to watch the micro coil expand and contract as you hit and let off the power.

    question for people to use cotton wicks.

    i went with the "sterile cotton gauze" because it seems like popular choice for many people. something that is more processed i'm sure would remove more of the wax. also the micro coil test rig is done. 7 wrap 2 mm drill bit. 1.8 ohms going to run it at 3.9 volts. :vapor:

    question for people to use cotton wicks.

    Project Cotton - Chemical Composition of Cotton Fibers "cotton" contains .6 percent wax.. i look through the whole pack of sterile cotton gauze and this was the only one i could find that was big enough for me to pull out. i can see some other small black dots that i can only guess are also...

    question for people to use cotton wicks.

    i should have pointed out that using a white LED for a light source made the red spots look purple, and the green spot look darker green. have you ever tried to use just pure VG and PG with no flavor or nicotine?... check out this chuck of wax i found in my cotton. i put a dropper top next to...

    question for people to use cotton wicks.

    well it must be a product of a chemical reaction... if you notice the top has a little green nub in the middle (closest to the air hole)... and the bottom has red spots. the colors were not there when i first started using the wick... every other puff i would pull off the top and look at the...
