    'Folded' Kanthal Ribbon

    I noticed that too, it would take 1.6 feet of wire for a 1.8ohm coil if it's right.

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    I get better performance wrapping the coils close together side by side. For some reason I noticed the larger the spaces between wraps the more likely to burn the cotton, especially with weaved cottons. I still have yet to experiment more with oval coils though.

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    I think most new to rebuilding make their coils too big. I know I did when I first started my first coil was over 5ohms lol. I also noticed how coil size can change the way it performs greatly. I think I'm going to start collecting/making more different sized rods for different size coils. So...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    I misplaced all of my sewing needles I have been saveing just for mounting different sized coils. So I cut a piece of coat hanger and made some larger coils with 33 and 36 aeg kanthal and the size seems perfect. Will post some pics when I get a chance.

    'Folded' Kanthal Ribbon

    I have been thinking about just taking some 30 awg kanthal and hammering it flat on my anvil. Maybe I'll get around to that sometime this week.

    Inside the Drunker Tank

    Well that setup was horrible, but I did learn something. The air flow in the drunker is what made it worse haveing the coil and wick higher up. After realizing that it's the air flow has given me some ideas on how to improve the next setup. Will show my next idea when put together.

    Inside the Drunker Tank

    Just got done cleaning every piece then back together. Used 1.25inches 33 awg kanthal with nickle legs for about 1.8ohm larger coil. Had to mount the coil on top a little higher because of the thin slots. Rolled two wicks of cotton rounds both through the coil like original setup. Letting it...

    Inside the Drunker Tank

    I have had a singe problem lately again, mostly because I think I have been making the coil and wick too thin. I came accross a thread talking about oval coils working better in some devices and remembered the origonal wick/coil in the drunker was large and oval. Will keep posted on how it turns...

    Home made Attomizer

    Home made atties is the topic. I bought a few male atty connectors recently and pulled apart some used Ce2's a friend sent me and have been thinking about making my own atty. Anyone else that has made anything I would love to see it. I was thinking of using some large flat washers for the base...

    New Tobacco Flavors info wanted

    I mixed up a 30ml batch of 555 DK at 4% and tried it fresh and that is a great tobacco flavor. I can imagine how much better it will get with steeping. Mixed up a 10ml batch of light brand tobacco at 5%. Made a small batch because it's clear and the smell reminds me of tobacco concentrate which...

    New Tobacco Flavors info wanted

    Yeah I'm used to diy, have been for since I started vaping forever ago. These are just new flavors to me, so I figured I would see what some of you have to say about them. I mixed 2 30ml bottles 1 drop per ml already. So from what I see that should steep for at least 4-6 weeks. I will try a 2%...

    New Tobacco Flavors info wanted

    I guess I was asking more about percentages for those tobacco flavors as well. I knew the M-type shouldn't be mixed more than 1 drop per ml but the 555 DK? Also the light tobacco smells alot like tobacco concentrate, which is floral. The M-type needs 4-6 weeks I hear to change flavor after...

    Just For LM2596 Users

    Really is worth 5 bucks getting the voltmeter built in isn't it. Those blue pcb's really do make them look nice as well. Did you drill a micro hole for the potentiometer in the window? Looks great!

    Resistance-No Resistance wire welder

    I took apart our old printer to find a bunch of different sized caps up to 50v and several smd switches. I'm thinking I will try making my next welder with different caps selectable for different awg wires.

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    It all depends on how dark your juice is. My really dark brown juices go through a wick in about 2 days, but my clear juices can go for at least a week.

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    Got my juice supplies today. I mixed up 5 30ml bottes of Ry4 Doube, and 2 M-type bottles so I'm good to go. I re-coiled and wicked my 2 vivi novas with 36 awg kanthal with nr nickel legs and cotton rounds. As clean as a vape can get, really love my current setup.
