    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    Welp.. That’s how I usually wick my cotton (same as the videos). Thanks for the time stamps, I appreciate it. I usually do 2.5 but I tried 3.0 and even 2.0 as well as all of the different airflow pins (Best results with the 1.2). I generally thin them a bit after cutting, as opposed to before...

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    I’ve been watching Pioneer wicking videos pretty much all day and I’ve noticed that nobody cuts the wick where I do (at the edge of the base) so I think mine may be a little long. Next wick will be shorter, and I’ll report back

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    I don’t think it’s the wire since I’ve tried other brands and get the same results. I don’t have any unflavored, but I do have some minimally sweetened juices (which are the ones I’ve been testing with) from cloudberry vapors. I only have the Aegis Mini, but my wife just got me a Dovpo Odin...

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    I’ve tried from .5 - 1 ohm on the 28 ga, as well as 30/32 gauge both twisted and round (.6ish - 1.5ish). I’ve also tried 26gauge kanthal around 1 ohm I believe, and 32 x 2 (=) + 38ga Vandy Vape superfine MTL fused Clapton SS316L All with the same results I will order some 27 though (probably...

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    I am using only wattage mode nowadays, because TC wasn’t working for me

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    I don’t have any but I could buy some. I don’t think I’m having any trouble with coiling or wicking, but I’m still new to this. I’m getting great flavor and vapor just burning my coil after a couple ML of juice even at a lowish wattage setting for the coil.

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    No preheat as far as I’m aware. Using the basic power mode on aegis mini.

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    Thanks for the reply. I do use steam engine to make sure my coil is within a reasonable range of what it’s supposed to be. This one is 1 ohm 28ga SS316L at 3.0ID. Vaping it at 22 watts. I do keep my coil jig inserted while tightening the wire to the posts, so I’d think it wouldn’t move much...

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    I have no idea lol. I mean, it’s definitely got the least amount of sweeteners out of any juice I have. Most are a dark yellow/amber, this one is a pale yellow if not clear. All of my wire is from Master Wire Supply (Amazon) and it’s all SS316L

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    Okay so instead of switching the airflow I figured I would try a 3.0mm ID coil. I used the same amount of Rayon I was using in the 2.5 coils (I had cut a piece in half earlier, and decided I would see if it fit in this one). Not super tight, but the same amount of resistance I would use for...

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    I’ll give that a watch in a little here. I knew the flavor was going - here’s a pic of the coil like 10 minutes later lol

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    Maybe I need to use the larger airflow slot on the Pioneer. I’m currently using the 1.2mm on the bottom of the coil with the MTL side airflow control. I’ll bump it up to the 1.5 and see if that does any better.

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    Just tried to make a twisted 32 - after I took it off the rod it got all messed up, doesn’t seem to want to maintain its rigidity.

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    Well, I managed to vape about 3ml. Flavor isn’t completely gone, but definitely diminished.

    Max flavor out of MTL RTA?

    I use a coil jig to tightly wind a contact coil and then evenly (or as evenly as possible) pull it apart. It seems to be pretty tight when I reinsert the rod (unless I try to use twisted wire, but that’s another topic). I do have problems with the legs, sometimes. Trying to get it evenly placed...

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    That’s actually the reason I bought the 32gauge. I tried twisting 28gauge first, but the resistance was low. I just wanted to see how 32gauge would fare as a single round coil. Should I be using a torch to heat it after wrapping? I usually stick it into both posts and fire it a couple times as a...

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    A good 15 minutes of vaping this new coil and no signs of gunking yet (unlike the 32gauge). Will see if it makes it through the tank

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    Oh yeah, I’ve actually watched it before, but I watched it again lol. Can’t really manipulate the roll in that same way, but I will try to cut it in half and flatten it out

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    Yeah I’ve tried to dry burn and rinse with hot water, even brush with an unused toothbrush. Generally gives me good flavor for a couple more ML and then it’s gone again. In the picture above, I had gone through not even half of my 4ml tank and it started to blacken and lose flavor. Not...

    Getting appropriate diameter of Rayon?

    That 32 ga 1.7ohm was at 9 watts with cotton Currently vaping a .85ohm 28ga at 17 watts with a little larger than half the roll of rayon as suggested. Flavor is good, we will see how long it lasts. I predict 2ml or a couple hours lol
