    fc-2000 porous ceramic wick

    cool thread, and much appreciated. Just got a DID D16 today and set it up with 1/8 inch fc2000 ceramic. Pretty impressed with the the clouds I'm getting with flat kanthal wrapped to 1.2 ohms. taste is a bit muted though, will this get better over time? http://vimeo.com/64198699

    for comparisons sake, here's a DID D16 I just got today - setup with an fc2000 ceramic wick and flat kanthal for 1.2 ohms http://vimeo.com/64198699 looks like slightly denser clouds with the DID, but taste goes to the kayfun!

    I tried a dual coil setup. Works pretty good, but was similar to single coil. I may revisit it with some ekowool sometime soon. I have been getting good clouds with this setup lately (flat ribbon kanthal/ekowool). I just built another one the other day but with a couple of additional wraps...

    Just compared the ekowool that comes with the kayfun to the 2 mm I bought from cloud9. Looks like the stuff that came with the kayfun is smaller, probably 1 mm.

    Try experimenting with coil height for flavor. As for wicking, make sure the wick isn't packed tight and isn't in the juice feed channel. try experimenting with either less or more wick, positioning, etc.

    I ordered the 2 mm stuff from Cloud9 and it seems to be bigger than what came with the Kayfun. The 3mm looks pretty thick, I have some of that too. Both seem to work well but I have been using the 2mm a lot more lately. Looking forward to testing with the Ithaka! Here's a pic of the mini in...

    anyone else have shortness of breath?

    Thought I'd bump this thread since I too, since switching over to DIY, have been experiencing shortness of breath, exhaustion, abnormal heart rate, etc. First started noticing the SOB while doing things that normally wouldn't cause me to get winded, like going up 2 flights of stairs, carrying...

    it take a bit to get worked out just right (at least it did in my case) but taste vapor are excellent. If it's wicking slow and you don't feel like taking it apart to fix the wick, etc, just cover the air hole a little with your finger and take a pull or 2 to fill the chamber. I've been...

    I'm using the same fill tips, I think the fill hole with the new one from Russia, which is brushed, has a slightly larger fill hole.

    strange, but the 3.1 I got from Russia fills with the fill hole in about 10 seconds. The one I got from Cloud 9 took about 3 minutes (with sore fingers) when filling from the fill hole.

    What are the top mechanical mods?

    It's not mine. Just found a pic of the Poldiac I ordered. I think the atomizer's a DID with a pyrex tank....not sure though. http://mmvapors.com/
