    Smok Magneto v2

    Here is the spring that is in the bottom tube. As it sits in the mod: With negative battery contact removed: Also do NOT try to torch your switch... My magnet no longer works at all, it's attracted to the other magnet on both sides and fell out of the switch, now my magneto no longer works. :(

    i been building coils for a month, but...

    Have you tried cotton as a wicking material? I was never able to get nearly as much vapor production on silica as I can on cotton. Post a picture of your builds, so that we can see what it looks like and give you advice.

    Building .35 and lower dual coil set ups

    What batteries are you using? Connections on the posts of the dripper not being tight can cause this as well. I'd imagine something may have already been wrong with that positive post and that may be why it was taking so long to heat up.

    How to reduce the density and volume of vapor?

    You're vaping at about 3 watts on a 4.7 ohm coil, and it's producing too much vapor? I know that not everyone is into cloud-chasing or even low resistance builds, but I think this is the first time I've heard something like that. Lol. PG reduces vapor. So does higher resistance/lower voltage...

    Kayfun Lite Plus 1 CLONE ??? Mislabeled?

    By bottom, he means the atomizer base, near the 510 connection.

    Square coil???

    Why? The electricity would not flow smoothly and might cause hot spots.

    New found love for my AGA-T+

    Stock air holes are almost never big enough. 1/16" dual air holes are starting to feel too tight to me. Lol.

    What is a Safe ohm range Panasonic Ncr18650B (MAX6.8A)

    Steam Engine | Vaping related calculators This calculator takes APV efficiency into account and calculates the amperage actually drawn from the battery. The DNA20 is 93% efficient, according to Evolv. I dropped that down to 90%, due to the wiring for switches, grounds, battery, charger, etc...

    Smok Magneto v2

    I lied again... Lol. The spring that allows for large batteries is actually in the bottom of the tube, not the top cap or the switch assembly.

    New HANA MODZ DNA 20

    I think it might be the length of the MNKE, because this Efest isn't constantly changing. However, it shows no battery life right now, but still vapes just fine.

    Definitive answer on cotton wick tail lengh in RDA

    Putting it under the coil can "drown" the coil with juice and it will barely fire. The amount of cotton is really personal preference. Some people like a lot, some people very little. I've noticed that more cotton really just holds juice that never really ends up making it to the coil.

    Post pictures of your working wick and coil setup

    Rebuilt my kayfun clone for the first time yesterday. 12 wraps, 1.1 ohms, 1/16" ID, 28G. And a centered dual coil build on my Igo-W. 12 wraps, 0.7 ohms, 1/16" ID, 28G.

    New HANA MODZ DNA 20

    Does anyone with a V2 have any issues with the battery life meter? With my MNKE 650, the meter will drop every few hits. Then randomly jump back up. Then it was empty, but kept vaping like normal... Battery seems to be making contact just fine, it's not loose at all. I'm trying a different...

    Smok Magneto v2

    Now that I think about it, you're right. Mine has a hidden spring in the top cap to allow for larger batteries. I've not had any issues going down to 0.5 ohms, so I'm not sure where they came up with not being able to go below 1.0 ohm.

    Smok Magneto v2

    There is no spring at all in my 510 top cap, just the insulator and the adjustable pin. I've run as low as .5 ohms with no issues. There are actually no springs at all in my magneto, so I'm not sure what they are referring to. Can you post a link?

    The Anti cotton 1%

    I remember seeing pictures of a top cap after using silica on here and there was a ton of fibers all over the inside. I personally don't want to inhale a fibrous, man made material. Any ever heard of Asbetos? I can't say for sure that silica is unhealthy, but if you're inhaling fibrous...

    Cotton Wash

    Try sterile rolled cotton. It is made to clean/bandage open wounds, so it is sterilized with heat. Most cottons balls(including organic) are bleached with hydrogen peroxide. I don't want to inhale that personally. I HAD to boil the organic cotton balls(CVS) I used or I got a funky taste/weird...
