    Watts do not matter. Its all about wire temp. Read on…

    I am not sure if we should introduce juice in to the equation, at least for now. That is a tough variable to control. Density, nic level, PG/VG, wicking, ambient temperature. It would be interesting to know the minimum temp to vaporize different fluid types and maybe somehow come up with an...

    Watts do not matter. Its all about wire temp. Read on…

    If you guys want to know wire temps, I can do that. I am a thermographier. Give me whatever situation (s) you would like to know/see. I can do it at a set amount of time, over time (30 fps of temp data), peak...whatever. My initial thought would be to set up real world coils and just...

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    Hehe thats funny.....I had the same issue. Hex to jacobs chuck was the answer for me. ;) You are not kidding about the expensive part. I have a next door machine shop on one side and the other side is a carbon fiber prototyping company....and I have still spent a ton. I have big plans for my...

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    Yeah had to do the same thing. Don't think I could do a dual coil on a single post though...even drilled out. I don't think I can make the hole big enough in the single post without breaking the post.

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    Here are the magic wire ones. Note how it doesn't spit the vapor out nearly as much. For me this is the major loss of vapor vs the dragoon nano coil build. The wire is porous, which I am guessing is what is adding so much flavor due to surface area, but at the same time it looses the turbine...

    I wrap the outside....no way I could wick .5mm. These pics are a standard coil. Think I have one laying around here of the magic wire.

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    I agree 100%. It is just too much flavor for me, at least the fluid I have now. I took some older fluid I had that I thought lacked a little bit and mixed with my current mix and it is way better now. My normal vaporite VR4 was just tooooo sweet with this stuff. Incidentally I am running...

    Dual Coil RSST Build

    Actually, they were out of stock. Bought two of them here: https://squareup.com/market/ninja-mods/silver-plated-brass-post-for-rsst Thinking I will be able to find the nuts from a jewelry related site. I just need to know the thread

    Dual Coil RSST Build

    Actually, between my center post find and your idea of just adding more nuts, I think we have the solution. Silver Plated Brass RSST Positive Post - Kidney Puncher Silver post is way better for voltage drop and it is threaded the entire way. Now we just need silver nuts to go on it.

    Okay, fiddled with it some more. Yeah, VW would be way better. Went and borrowed a buddies 20A battery. Messed with the wicking more. Yeah doing nano. I wrapped it around 18 gauge, so not much smaller. 1.02mm. I have a 28 gauge needle. Funny, because with 28 gauge Kanthal I am...

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    Okay, installed it. Same problem with getting it to compress, so I broke out the map gas and heated it way up. Finally got it to compress, but it kept coming a little loose while installing it and wicking it. Came in a .35 ohms. That is just under the range of my batteries for amps. I have...

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    I had some .8x1mm laying around and tried it with it. It looks decent. Not enough light in this image. I didn't really take my time with it and had a break right as it started to fold over on itself. I hooked everything back up and it picked up elsewhere then meet where the fold was...

    Yeah the cotton is going to burn up instantly. The ceramic stuff however......XC-116 Ceramic Wick - 12" Heat Cleaned And I was wrong it is 1200F....which is weird because they pre-treat it to 700C, which is 1292F. We sell test and measurement equipment and I have IR stuff out the ying yang...

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    So, Mundy, I have a thought. What about dismantling a ceramic wick (one that looks like a fiber not the solid type) and spin it in with the wire? I am thinking maybe this would make an internal wick to the wire. The ceramic wick has a burn temp of 1400C, so it should be good in the wire, even...

    Alexander Mundy's Magic Twisted Ribbon

    Okay, first try broke the wire before it started folding in over itself and it spun up like those friendship bracelets do. Second try got it, but then screwed up the 2nd (reverse) twist. 3rd time....GOT IT! Looks perfect. 3ft yielded enough for 2 coils....ouch. Okay so here is now the...

    Cotton yarn tie off

    After messing with the external coil wicking (carto style), it was just never tight enough and produced a lot of burnt hits. So I thought if there was a way I could make the cotton tighter around the coil, carto style, then maybe I would get less burnt hits. I took the cotton ball and pulled...

    Dual Coil RSST Build

    I get burnt hits time to time on my RSST, so I wanted to go dual coil with it. I used the original fill hole as a second wick hole and drilled a 3rd hole to serve as the new fill hole. My problem is getting the coils installed. Major pain in the .... just to get them to the negative. Where...

    Ordered $37.00 worth of several juices, mainly due to price. You get what you pay for. Juice, to me, is no where close to what the flavor states. In addition, they mislabeled two of the bottles and gave me the wrong quantity of juice I ordered for those two bottles. Vanilla said turbosmog...

    new here,need advice about quitting smoking

    And one other thing, you might want to try a 100% VG or 98% VG (flavoring isn't VG) as it produces more smoke. One of the things that still didn't quince my smoking thirst at first was the lack of smoke production vs the analogs. VG fixes that.

    Steeping Flavors

    I have heard that the nic is what really causes this effect. Heating it up as DKP sounds like a killer idea. I do know a few of the flavors I have taste drastically different, to the point that the higher nic one is good and the 0 nic is horrible. Just have to keep experimenting. No two...
