Got mine in today, really like it so far! I was expecting it to be small and light weight, but I was still pleasantly surprised.
Look what just arrived!!
I rushed to be the first to upload a picture that I haven't even stuck a battery in it yet. Ha Ha
I've come up with conflicting results on trying to find the C rating of the AW IMR 14500's. Some sources say 8C, while others say less. I'm just looking to find this out so I don't end up venting my batts with a sub ohm coil.
Question.... are you not dry burning your coils to clean them? I have an old HH sitting here that's probably over a year old.
i've been looking for some nice 14500 mod for a while.
order placed.
All's I know is dry burning (rinsing with water, soaking up the excess water with a paper towel, then burning til red and glowy for a nice long time) works excellently for cleaning my silica wick rebuildable drippers. Fresh as a daisy. Coils and wick last me a good two weeks easy, more if I don't get queasy thinking about it.I did try it in the past, but its not good for them, so no.... ... I consider myself a professional direct dripper as its the only way Ive liked to vape for the last 3 3/4 years.. The best way I have found to keep attys clean and working at peak peformance is to blow them clear once or twice a day-after blowing clear give them a quick 2 second fire(no glowing coil) and then redrip with 3-4 drops....With a HH atty Hanna recommends you blow from the threaded end only... I run one atty at a time until I replace it.. On my mechanical Shockwave I run a LR 1.5 ohm HH, it only gets used at my desk for an hour or so. My daily carry when I leave the house is a Provari, voltage set so it gives a 10 watt vape... I adjust voltage as the attys resistance drops with age so I stay at a 10 watt vape--My sweet spot... Provairs voltage remains constant so attys are pushed hard all the time.. I use 3.0 ohms for VV mods... Every HH I have owned starts at 3.0 ohms but after 2 weeks or so settles at 2.2 -2.3 ohms... I have tried to milk out HHs for several months...but the flavor was gone and the performance sufferes when compared to a fresh one...
And no amount of soaking ect. can bring an old coil back to its original performance, its just a waste of time in my opinion..
Replace your attys people-dont be a cheap-you will be only cheating yourself out of the best vape possible... Its a coil after all and doesnt last forever... How long do you RBA coil builders use a coil for anyway? I bet no more than a month..
I vape only 100%VG unflavored 30mg(yes it has a taste-VG and nicotine)...I do get the custom HHs setup for VG but its still hard on them when compared to high PG...
Really looking forward to my ELA ... I have a Kick and a crown awaitng its arival... plus going to order one of those "Nach Special Sub ohm 0.8 coils" so I can run it straight...
You guys are getting them already? I haven't received any shipping notice or tracking yet... ordered just after midnight on the 4th est.

what were your order numbers?
No worries, i've pushed them to 10amps Continuous on my load tester. Don't last long at 10amps continuous load, but no problems, and the temps didn't rise over 100F.
Family photo!

Hey Freckle, What atomizers/drippers are you using on those? They all look awesome!
Thanks!
