    need help with sweet spot chart

    I would think a chart would be pretty useless unless it was calibrated to one specific atty, with one specific coil. Coil ID, gauge, wire type, wrap count, etc.. would all make a significant difference, as would personal taste. Most of all airflow has a huge effect on the power you can put...

    What is this "atomizer low" message I'm getting?

    The "Low Atty" is indicating that the measured coil resistance is considered unsafe/under designed operational limits for your device. What coils were giving you this problem? Kanthal, Ni200, Ti? Your coils or OCC? What ohms?

    Something Positive in this Smoking Ban?

    OK, but my point is they have made the decision NOT to ban e-cig usage in cars with children. I think it's a positive sign that the UK doesn't feel the need to bundle e-cigs into this law relating to smoking.

    Something Positive in this Smoking Ban?

    So the UK has banned smoking in cars that are carrying children (under 18's) www.bbc.com/news/health-34402622 Make what you will of the ban (preferably in another thread) What I find interesting and positive is that they DIDN'T include e-cigs in this new legislation! :)

    Kissing kanthal goodbye?

    I really see the value of TC in drippers, but don't use them much. Tried TC in my RTA's, didn't think it was a nice as kanthal. Dry hitting isn't an issue in RTA's, any tank that I can't get to wick will go in the garbage - hasn't happened yet :)

    Obligatory 1-year-off-the-stinkies humblebrag threader

    Congrats @phanner Liked your thread title, here's the obligatory banana celebratory dance: :banana: The question I find interesting is how many of us would have made it 3 months with any other method of quitting. Well done on the major achievement! Never go back :)

    Lemo 2 coil builds

    I fired my Lemo 2 up with the pre-installed coil. Tasted disgusting. Learnt my lesson a will bin all pre-installed in future. Back to the question. I'm currently running my Lemo 2 with a 28g Twisted (two strand), 3mm ID, 5 wrap, 0.65ohm coil. I'd highly recommend twisted wire if you want...

    Goblin mini

    The build in the pic is a dual coil, 28g, 3mm ID, 0.5ohm (can't remember the wrap count, maybe 6). Great vape at 25w! 3mm ID, is a very tight fit in the GM. I've recently been building: dual coil, 2.5mm ID, 7wraps, 0.62ohms Fantastic vape at 27-30w :) Never leaks or dry hit

    In Asia

    I live a stones throw from KL Sentral, but don't know of any vape store nearby. If you find any please let me know. The juice stores I do know are: Vapebrothers Legadget (has two or three store locations indicated on their website) Do a google search for either. Sorry I'm not near a...

    Setup suggestions.

    I smoked between 1 and 2 packs of lights a day for 25 years. When I switched to vaping 6 months ago I vaped 12mg at 12w on a single coil (mainly a Kayfun v4). I now vape 12mg on mainly dual coil setups between 25-35w. Interestingly my juice consumption has not increased. I still average just...

    Setup suggestions.

    I think you did good :) There's plenty there for a first time setup! The only thing I think you are missing is the juice and some spare OCC coils. Later you may well want supplies to get into making your own coils. You may even decide to get a more expensive and refined mod, but for now I'd...

    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    Yes the Goblin Mini is a noisy little firecracker. Sounds like twin Webber carbs, with lots of snap, crackle and pop thrown in. Really doesn't bother me at all as it's the best all round vape I've had since I started vaping. I can understand why it would be a negative for some though. It's...

    26 gauge kanthal twisted

    Patience not being one of my virtues I went ahead and built my first twisted coil: 28g Twisted, 3mm ID, 5wraps, 0.65ohms Vapes well at 30w and fairly cool, as I like it. It's no cloud machine on my Lemo 2, but kicks out a satisfying vapour :)

    UK's Totally Wicked Press Release

    Ok, I signed the petition. Not sure what good it will do though, as they say the UK government has left the decision on Article 20's legality to th EU courts (with the case pending 1st October 2015), but the petition is due to be given to the UK government?

    26 gauge kanthal twisted

    I'm interested in this. The other day I tried a dual coil, 2.5mm ID, 30g, 7wrap, parallel coil (not twisted) setup in my Goblin Mini. It worked fine, but needed most of my DNA40's power, and I found it too warm a vape ( I do like a cool vape). So I went back to my normal build, dual coil...

    Setup suggestions.

    The Vapor Flask (not the Vapor Shark Vapor Flask) is made in the US. The Kayfun tanks are made in EU. In fact there's loads of kit made all over the US and EU, I just don't know which ones off the top of my head. Still some of the Chinese stuff is pretty good quality, it's just worth checking...

    What do you think about THIS coil?

    That's a very interesting looking coil. So it's stacked in series, so essentially it's one coil. I assume you mean 40w and not 40 amps? What's the internal diameter and ohms?
