    Haha it's angles man, yours looks great. That wasn't really even hammered just hard pressed flat with pliers. It's basically a poor man's alien. Like if you're struggling with an alien bang out one of these and you're good. I have it there parallel to a piece of .5x.2mm Ka1 ribbon claptoned in 40g.

    Pinch with pliers, insert the cores then it's hammer time. And because you Clapton around a piece of 20g or 18g, and don't decore, stretch out, and Clapton it the opposite way.

    How many feet of claptons can u make

    ....Claptons are vapeable at 30-40w. Just go with a higher gauge core. I made a couple wire sticks for my buddy's subtank/subox mini (which has a .3Ω cutoff), a 30/40g fused Clapton & a 28g/36g SFC. Both were all N80. He used the 30/40g fused first and his first words to me were: "Dude I'm...

    Aspire Cleito- a new "clean sheet" design subohm clearo

    I like the looks of it. Aspire never really fell behind in the game because their Atlantis style coils are compatible in so many different tanks IMO. I used an Atlantis & sold it to pick up an Atlantis 2 when it came out. It's the only sub ohm tank I use. In fact, the only other tank I use at...

    Smok TFV4 Sub Ohm Tank

    Hey guys I got a question for all you tfv4 users. Apparently the mini kit comes with Claptons for the RBA deck. Any idea on what kind of wire & gauges those premade Claptons are?

    claptons... overrated imo

    I mean, I'm just sayin that all of the manufacturers across the board now are using vertical coil heads. Kanger pulled their horizontal subtank OCC coils for a vertical design. I just think it would work better spaced & vertically installed & wicked. Nowhere does it say you NEED to go horizontal...

    claptons... overrated imo

    I'm only finding the CLP-2 & STC-whatever (stainless steel Claptons) that are premade and aren't the RBA coil head. Since they're premade and premade for a disposable coil head, not the RBA head, it's not really a fair evaluation on how a Clapton can be a good coil. Edit: if it was for the RBA...

    RDA Aeolus Lite!!!

    Trust me the Sapor is nowhere near quality. Not even middle shelf. I have clones that have lasted me almost a year and the Sapor not even a week on 2 different units. I was considering an Aeolus v2 for a while myself, but I'm more a Kennedy guy. Edit: does anyone have a regular v2 and a v2...

    Looks great. I've made arched Claptons with 4x28g cores and 5x30g cores. Resistance is always pretty low with them.

    RDA Aeolus Lite!!!

    It's a POS and has no quality, busted 2 insulators on 2 different Sapors from different batches in one week. First was on a single battery mech with a .2Ω build. Second was on an IPV4 at 75w.

    Meh sometimes a triangle ain't so bad. The cores didn't twist on me for that stitch, it's a 3 core triangle stitched alien with a 34g stitch & 36g wrap. The cores stacked up 2-1 to form the triangle because the stitch wire is thicker than the wrap wire

    New? If so its a clone. If it's used, and you paid $30 I'd throw a fit. The dragon cap on a Kennedy has a wide bore metal drip tip stock. Check out Kennedy's website to see the differences between the different top caps.

    The cores between the drill & swivel need to be completely taught. Or else you'll get twisting between the 3. The wrap does push the cores, but when that happens you usually see a uniform twist like you would with a fused Clapton. Is it that your core wires keep twisting up or the wrap forms a...

    Rolling backwards on the wrap or just forming a Mohawk shape? If it's the latter, just hold more tension on the wrap, or stretch the initial decored Clapton out more.

    Okay so this is the loop I'm working with right now for an FSA: 28g frames 6 ply .4x.1mm in between. That's the entire loop, all of the pieces of tape I'm able to slide up and down the wire. Both ends are actually held together with scrap wire for now. The end of the loop going into the swivel...

    Is this Stainless Kennedy 24 a clone then? The black 24 is authentic direct from Kennedy, I just wanna see if you think the stainless is a clone Side note, @Anthony Newcomer how much did you pay for that Kennedy? If you paid an authentic price for a clone, I'd be flipping out and I'd go to...
