    Hoppy vape

    I wanted something that tasted like aroma hops so I bought Frontier Vapor's Mosaic Promise hop juice. It was just funky and bitter. Kinda what I expected (pessimistic, ya know). I went on to use it as about 40% of a mix that included mango, grapefruit, and pineapple flavorings. The end result is...

    Dual coil, parallel 26, 1/8"ID, 0.3ohm (for regulated)

    Heres todays build on my Mutation X Coil wrapping | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators I was aiming for vapor production and to use the full 100 watts of my Sigelei 100+. The parallel is WAY cooler vape than both the claptons and twisted wire that ive done. I dont have to draw super fast...

    Why are some coils considerably hotter at the same heat flux

    All my macro coils were substantially hotter vape than the micros. Even more confusing is that the micro has a lower heat capacity than the macro so it should be firing faster (i think). I was using substantially more wattage (nearly double) in the macros but the heat flux should have been...

    ohms law and box mod wattage

    If I understand it correctly, on a VV "boost only" mod, your resistance is what will determine your minimum wattage. The IPV Mini2 has a minimum wattage of 5 watts, but, it cant put out a voltage below the batterys present max. Right? So on a full charge of 4.2 volts the IPV can only achieve 5...

    Are many coil builds just novelty?

    would like to hear opinions from those who have experience building a large array of coil types and sizes. Is it just a bunch of bias and hype?

    Is the heatflux correct for twisted wire?

    Build= dual braided 30AWG, 0.8ohms, 10/9 wrap, 2.4mm Steam engine says that @17 watts my heat flux is 47 mw/mm, however, it vapes well. It says it would be 187 mw/mm if it were a non braided 0.8 ohm dual coil of 30awg. I get fairly dense clouds at 17 watts. Warm vape. If I bump it up to around...

    Clapton coil question

    I made a dual clapton coil that is 26 wrapped in 30. The resistance is the same is if I had not wrapped it with 30. Why is that? Whats happening? its 5/6 wrap, 1/8" and it comes in at ~.5 ohms (with dual coils). Is the 30 just acting as an insulator and being heated by the 26? Or vice versa?

    My first RDA build (on mutation Tobeco clone)

    Grabbed a mutation from my local shop today. I set it up with a 0.8 ohm dual coil, 3mm, twisted, 30awg kanthal, 8/7 wraps. This is impressive at 50-60 watts on my sigelei 100+. Wicked thru the coils with shiseido cotton. Big clouds. Not sure if i was supposed to angle the coils up towards the...

    Heat capacity vs. fire up time

    What should my upper limit [for heat capacity] be? Is there any chart that shows the relation between heat capacity and fire up time? If I want to take long slow draws what should I shoot for ? If I want fast hard draws? When is says "heat capacity" (each coil) do I need to double that number...

    My first coil

    30AWG Kanthal, 10 wraps, 1/16 https://www.dropbox.com/s/iwqugko9jy1f0z6/IMG_20150212_121401.jpg?dl=0 I think it looks pretty decent. I straightened with a drill then wrapped around a 1/16 bit. The top side was a bit spaced and the bottom tight. I put it in tweezers and hit it with a mapp gas...

    Is most E-Juice designed for use in RBAs?

    Is most E-Juice designed for use in RBAs? (read below for clarification) I see people saying that dripping gives you tremendous flavor. I saw people saying that something thats good in a carto can be overly strong in a dripper. Im not sure if they meant just nic content or were also referring...

    Coil build for IPV Mini2

    Does that look about right? If you cant see its a 30AWG kanthal, quad coil, 3.175 ID, 8 wraps, 0.7ohm. Based off these numbers. Guessed 20A limit since I couldn't find that spec. I read that 1.3-1.6 is what I should be going for, but, that contradicts this so called "sweet spot". I really...
