have one of these coming #florisbox

lots of google

my last [delrin, sx450j] one went reasonably well

shame i need to cut my own squonk hole

also bought 2 [1 & backup] turnigy nano tech 3s 1500 mah lipos, and appropriate connectors

haven't ordered dna board yet, but given BLO finish plans, next payday will be plenty soon enough

on another note, has florence gone now? i don't know how long a hurricane lasts :?:
She's gone but the destruction is still there.

Hi guys.

I need some help, will be speaking with pdib privately in few days too.

when I first started my pod-replication-adaptation-squonkification program, I made some effort to mimic the coil in the pod.
Primarily same resistance, and kind of same config. (1.3Ω, tight but spaced, ~2mm ID).

I did this, in part, because I was dealing with 40mg nic salts, and didn't want to change up too many factors and end up with mysterious problems (or troubleshooting with bonus tangential puzzle-twists); and, in part, because I didn't want to add more power to the strong concoction.

Now that I'm fairly comfortable with mixing my own salt nic eliquids [i.e. % freedom], and I'm a little more familiar with what kind of power↔%salt-nic ratios I can enjoy, it has come time to address the nuances of the vape.

The 29g, 1.25→1.3Ω, spaced coils were mildly problematic. The vape was kin'a too squirrely.
Too hot, in a weird way (like a tiny little pin that's too sharp) . . . so, too hot and too "thin".
Too anemic, OR . . . rather . . . too dependent on supplied Voltage. The satisfactory Voltage band was too narrow. (say . . . 4.1→3.9). And I often found myself hitting it more often in search of some steam-in-the-cavity type satisfaction. Like an engine that's running; but needs a swift kick to get the 4th cylinder firing.

So, I just fired up an 28g, ~1.15Ω, tight-stacked contact coil, wrapped around 3/32" ID (in the Divo still, with the 1.3mm air). In fact, I was looking for the "right" coil to match a 1.3mm air hole (this because 1.3 is my max for MTL suction. Any bigger, and it just don't work for me on the draw resistance, or lack thereof).

Anyway, this is miles better! I'm getting a good 'n' proper MTL vape out of it now: very warm (not hot), full in the steam department, an just-right bowl of porridge. :)

Dayum. And there are people who look at me funny 'cause they think I run "too little air". :laugh:

FWIW, 1.6mm on a Cyclone feels kinda tight to me these days. What I run the most is an O-16 with central Z-coil with air coming from both sides, smallest holes (but I haven't gauged then). With a Nuppin running duals, I show just a tad shy of a full circle on each side.

This is strictly MTl, and the 'l' is lower-case for a reason.

All this talk bout MTL had me go do a MTL build with stronger e juice. Busted out the Origin Little 16. Built at 1.3 with the smallest holes open. Too aenimic. Built a twisted 0.5 with single smallest hole, MTL bliss! Cant do that exclusive, I enjoy my big DTL hits too much, but fun to find a build from back in the day that still satisfies.
