Finally made it through all 27 pages of this new thread. The last one was just impossible for me to keep up with. I'm really liking the new El Pinchos! I still have a good while to wait, but that's definitely what I'm going for. I'm [HASHTAG]#296[/HASHTAG]. How long do you think that will take from now? I've got other things in the works too, so I have to make sure I'm prepared for it when the time comes.

seems like a good place to ask. and yes&no. Bottom insulator or top? Bottom insulators, I have a few left. Top, all gone.

Tricks, hacks, for the top insulator? yep. Pretty? nope. Very effective and simple? yep.

Take one of these: AGA Series Positive Post Insulators - 10 pack - Kidney Puncher

196___88712.1364771813.1280.1280.jpg


cut the shaft/sleeve/bushing section to 1/2 the existing length.

shove it in there (take out the other first).

Bob = Uncle.

(the reason we're cutting half the bushing section away is so that it will seat low enough to clear the juicefeed holes.)

BTW: Could you grant me permission to post in your threads?
It is a Registered Supplier TOS requirement.
Reciprocity is of course granted.
It's the one you see in the top of the base. Coil got too close and burned the lip of it.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission. Neither worked well on the wife. :nun:

whoa! :ohmy:

There it is!! The elusive .17Ω vape I been looking for. :D

So, all it took was getting 23g Kanthal, and then resorting to a 5/64" Allen Key (2.1mm dia. on the corners . . . . I wasn't going to be heading up to Hardwick's anytime soon).

The 2mm ID worked fine with the 23g wire; but it was cusping. Meaning, once my wicks got run for a little while, and if my juice bottle wasn't mostly full, I'd have to be mindful of a vape, lest it run a'swee-bit dry towards the end of a toot. Not vaping this↑ one yet; but I think the extra tenth of a mm in ID will just do the trick.

I must say that: while I was setting this up, I put my other atty on the mod. That one is a .21Ω, 24g, 2mm ID version of this same setup (5.75 wraps). The .21Ω is on the other side of my own personal battery barrier (20A batteries acceptable to me). Point being, I wouldn't go and by the 30A HB6es just for the difference between the two vapes. There's not that much difference there. Glad I got the HB6es tho, because I don't like barriers. Don't have to cross them; just good to know I can when I feel like.
