The hadaly by psyclone mods available tomorrow

The new aeronaut 24,comes with BF pin and I freaking loved the 22mm for single coil. They look a little roomy at first but that weird airflow is amazing for flavor.

Narda (the clone is easy to get and there is one that comes with a bf pin now on fasttech I believe

Those are just a couple off the top of my head

Yeah I just received the BF Narda from fasttech, Hated it. to small to put a decent coil in, and flavorless with roundwire build.

That's Strange.

Because I'm vaping on a 26ga NiChrome 80 .6 ohm build right now. Flavor for Days.

I'll have to get back to it another time, however I've been vaping dual fused claptons for the last year or so. So i'm more than a little jaded to the round wire builds.

The one I had in there, I got lots of cloud, but almost no flavor.

Gotcha.

Going from Dual Fused Claptons to a Single Coil Single Wire build is a pretty big Jump.

This is the current build I have in there.

Reading at .18.

Running 90W just bland. [emoji30]

I tried a few different builds on mine before I found the Sweet Spot. And for me, it was 26ga NiChrome 80 @ .6 ohms with the bottom of the coil sitting even with the bottom of the Air Channel.

Looks like that Coil is sitting about where mine sit. Maybe Single Wire builds just isn't your thing?

Running 110W and some Rayon now on the same .18 coil.

Its better, still not great fused clapton level (if only I could fit one in here).

I can tell if if I had a little more space this would be killer.

Maybe I'll get a Hadaly clone when they are available. Looks like the same concept but better to build on.

For that Clapton, is it the Deck Size or trapping the Wire under the Screws that is the Problem?

Its a little of both really.

I generally like at least 3mm ID 4-6 wraps,

I can in theory fit a 4 wrap maybe. but I would need to replace the captive screws to lock down the wire, the clones screws don't have enough on the head (insert joke here)

I might be able to do a single core clapton relatively easily. So that would at least be better than standard round wire.

I noticed that about the BF Version...

verses the Non BF Version.

Seems like the BF Version screws have a Smaller Head on them.

When my First NarDa came, it had those Slotted Screws. Which are a PITA. So on my next Order I got these...

$0.97 Replacement Screws for Atomizers (10-Pack) 10-pack - M3*4mm thread size at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Maybe if you do another Order from FT you should grab a bag of them. Or you could pick-up some off e-Bay for a few bucks.

Try a spaced coil. With standard wire theres not really any space for wick exposure to the airflow at the heating point.

I have been looking for a single coil bf rda as well. I got the lost vape therion squonker last month. Im currently using the tsunami 24 with the bf pin. Great rda great flavor but using that rda with dual fused clapton kills the single 18650 in the lost vape. I would like to get the hadaly but there is no way i could afford to drop that much on a rda right now. I wish wotofo would make a single coil rda with the serpent mini build deck. :(

I'm jonesing for the Hadaly too, i've never spent that much on an RDA and I don't intend to start, but I also don't know if I can wait for a clone to come out.

I decided to try out the posts... but I was rocking it as a single coil postless and I loved it. it's really easy to place the single coil right in the middle, and the flavour cap is smaller than the one that comes with the dripbox(yes, I painted mine to match my mod lol). I'm really happy with it on my dripbox, period.
