    Attempt # 26--My quest to build one working coil

    Off topic but...........couldn't help it. "No his mind is not for rent.. To any god or government.. Always hopeful, yet discontent" Ahhhh, the days of my youth....."For I have dined on honeydew and drunk the milk of paradise" I think I'll break out the earbuds now

    Attempt # 26--My quest to build one working coil

    Take a lighter to a piece of the yarn. If it's cotton it should burn to ash. If it's acrylic it will melt and harden when cooled. Me thinks you been vaping plastic brother.

    Resistance increasing on iclear16

    I get the same thing with my 30S that came with my VTR. It starts at 2.1 ohms and within 5 days is over 3 ohm and climbing. Very frustrating. The design makes it impossible to rebuild as well. I tore one down, destroying the outer shell in the process but I can tell you that the legs on the...

    A1 Kantha wire for builds > 1.2 ohm: 30, 32, or 36?

    On a 5/64" drill bit a 3 ohm coil requires: 30 awg - 7 wraps 32 awg - 12 wraps Two of either together will give you 1.5 ohms

    A1 Kantha wire for builds > 1.2 ohm: 30, 32, or 36?

    Which one? Is your target of 1.2 to 1.5 for each coil or both combined? A dual coil setup with each individual coil at 1.5 ohms will actually be .75 ohms Number of wraps to be determined by the answer to the above question and the diameter of the bit or whatever you are wrapping the coil...

    A1 Kantha wire for builds > 1.2 ohm: 30, 32, or 36?

    Need to clarify if the op wants the individual coils in that range or the entire build. If it's the entire build, won't the individual coils need to be 2.4 to 3 ohms?

    Microcoil with cotton on protank lacking throat hit

    8 wraps on a 1/16 bit should get you close to 1.8 ohms. Not much you can do about coil placement. Too low and your wick will be bent/choked below the bottom of the cup slots and you increase the risk of scorching the rubber grommet. Too high and you could short the coil on the chimney cap. Not...

    Microcoil with cotton on protank lacking throat hit

    I believe the air flow in a Protank comes from under the coil. The optimal position in the cup would have the bottom of the coil ID even with the bottom of the slot on the side of the cup. There's no wiggle room to really adjust the air flow over the coil so let's look at some other things. For...

    Nano and Micro coilers, do you have issues finding very small rigid items to wrap your coils around? Take a look!

    Google "numbered drill bits". That be what they're called ;)

    Cotton Wick - To boil or not to boil , that is the question.

    To clear up a statement in post #1, it has been suggested to burn your cotton to determine if it is 100% if you're not sure. It will be reduced to nothing but ash if 100% cotton. If some of the fibers melt and turn hard, then it's not 100% pure cotton and includes synthetic fibers not safe to...

    DIY Master Techniques - Flavor Add-on's (EM, VW, BW, MTS, ACV, ect)

    Pull some air into the syringe before drawing the liquid. Instead of measuring by the edge of the plunger and dealing with bubbles you simple draw the liquid to the line you want.

    Is this PG safe for vaping?

    It's USP grade, so it should be fine. Lots of people on here talk about buying PG from Tractor Supply who sell it for animal use as well.

    Nicotine causing caughing

    I've had 2 chest colds since I began vaping almost a year ago. Both times I had to switch to nic gum. I could not vape for at least 4 days without coughing violently even though I had minimal coughing due to the cold. 30 PG 65 VG 5 saline at 16 mg/ml and just can't handle it. I'm curious if...

    Nicotine causing caughing

    Something that hasn't been mentioned here yet, hardware. From my experience, a good vape is dependent on multiple factors aside from the juice. Optimal saturation of the wick is one key factor. Too little and you get the dreaded dry hit which is unmistakable but does not seem to be the case...

    Iclear 30s

    They must be doing something right, I had to dig back 2+ months to find a thread specifically about the 30s. I tried a dry burn but pulled out the flavor wicks when I removed the silicone cap and was not able to get them fished back in there between the outer shell and the center to my...

    Quick question on cutting

    You may want to start with a smaller test batch. Diluting the flavor in half may leave you with too weak a flavor.

    PLEASE HELP with TFA flavoring Bad Mix

    You could let it sit and steep for a few weeks to see if it improves any and/or make a new batch without the honey and experiment by making a test sample by mixing 1 ml of the bad stuff with 2 ml of the good stuff. Perhaps a wee bit more AP would increase the nuttiness enough to cover the...
