I hope you enjoy it.

I AM enjoying it, right now! I'm having trouble finding the right wattage to use, though. Any suggestions? I have it on 30 at the moment, which is where I usually have my iSubs at, and it's like nothing... nothing... nothing... TOO MUCH! You know, how the icemaker will dribble out ice cubes. 1... 1... 1... 10! (Maybe that's just MY icemaker. :oops: ) Anyway, I started out at 25 watts and that didn't do much of anything, and I've been creeping it up slowly. Maybe I need to jump to 35? I'll keep playing with it. ;)

Also, I just got my Evic mini win in the mail today, too, so I have lots of things to play with today! :D

The coils are 26 gauge coils (I think they were 8 wrap), so it will get you just under 0.5 ohms. I generally vape it between 35 and 40 watts. That first vape from a cold coil will be a little weak since the coils will take a bit of power to heat up. As I told Fuzzy, if the vape tastes a little dry, you will want to rewick it. I had wicked it the same way that I normally wick my drippers, but since the juice flows from underneath, if there is too much cotton it can choke off the juice flow. You can always trim the wick, or re-wick it so the cotton just touches the deck, and then feather it out. This will make the juice flow easier.

(Cough, choke, cough!) Um, 35 was too much!

I know, I love presinks, and Rich's presink hasn't even got here yet. He ordered me the rose gold Solo mini!
If it is wicking properly, even 25 watts will work (although the vape will be a little on the cold side and the flavor may be a little weak). What will also help is if you hit the fire button about a second before you start inhaling. That gives the coil time to heat up and start vaporizing juice before you start inhaling.

I JUST remembered Rich read me the note where you said you might have used a bit too much wick in it. I'll play with that a little. You think it might be too tight? Or just need to be trimmed up a bit?
If the wicks are still in good shape you can fold out the tails and trim off like 1/16th of an inch on each side and then fold them back in. That might be enough to just get it so it just touches the deck. You also want to make sure that you primed the coils by soaking the coil and wick in juice before putting it back into the tank. This is what's great about the Aromamizer, you can access the build deck without needing to empty the tank.

I did notice that! The whole thing comes out the bottom! The first thing I did was take it apart! LOL!

The wicks should still be fine, I'm just on my first tank with it, and it still looks full. (I need an extra hand, I'm bouncing back and forth with one Disrupter and an iSubG, another 'Rupter with the Aromamizer, and the Evic mini.) I'll fiddle with the wicks a bit and see if that makes a difference. Thanks!

I also bumped the wattage up to 35 again, and it's good there now. Which is WEIRD, because 35 watts on the .5 ohm iSub coil is too hot for me. This coil is reading .48 ohms (same as the iSub coils), and 35 watts is just right. Is it the difference between single and dual coils, maybe?
