Cody the trident is very easy to coil,

Because you do not have to thread the coil through tiny holes. What you have when you take the screws off the posts, are slots.

So you slot your coil legs in one at a time, put the screws back on and adjust as needed; before tightening the screws fully home.

Really easy mate.

o_O So I don't need to wrap the ends of my coil around the screwhead? Heh! I have to watch some vids LOL I have noticed the holes in the screw tubes and wondered about them LOL

EDIT:

Cody, perhaps you should check out the pictures, snoop around, and ask about the finish on the Trident. This thread shows a picture of a Trident and it looks like a coating is wearing off it and it's pitted.

You have a better eye for these things than me Lisa... it looks ok i thought :blush: There is a silver version on FT too, so i think it is that one in the pic you linked.

Doesn't Terry have the Gold? He'll know for sure and better than a squonky picture... I'd been testing my super watch repair glasses [can be had from Fasttech =] and took a close look at my gold TVS... one section at the end is pitted and green :'( Broke my heart, although it is too heavy to use with my hands I thought the delicate care I'd taken of it would keep it nice for a long while.

Shouting? Who is shouting? I am putting emphasis on words =] Well, the milky plastic tank on the RSST is cheap looking. I prefer the clear tank even if it is polycarb as well. Don't listen to me, I have it, but I've done nothing with it because of the looks I should coil it and put tobacco in it to vape at home since I don't take out the larger toppers.

Now I LOVE the look of the AGA T2, but I've got to re-coil it. I dumped it's juice this AM for a re-coil tonight =] The only way I could get a good vape off it was at 4.5+ on the eVic. And then the eVic started saying there was no topper attached, so I know I had to re-coil it LOLOLOL I'll get a vape going in the Fasttech ATTY, AGA T2, and the RSST this weekend and see what happens =] I have the Pisces to take out and about since the Fasttech Sentinel turned out to be such a sad piece with it's bloody mushy threads :/

Yes my sentinel is sat looking rather pityful, in the corner while all my other mods are getting all the attention.:cry:

I dont even like to screw a tank on top of my ba gua because it leaves tiny little scratches lol. Anyhooo... I've ordered the trident and some of the pre-wrapped coils. If the coils are rubbish it's Lisa's fault, if the trident is rubbish it's Terry's fault and if the order doesnt arrive within 2 weeks then anybody's fault except mine :p

You know that Fasttech sells the new top for the Sentinel, but the reviews say the threads are mushy on it as well :/ I am saving the Sentinel pieces to start swapping tops, middles, and bottoms to be honest =] In the Pictures of your Setup thread they have some really nice mods with switched parts! I just hadn't gotten around to checking to see how many of them are the same diameter and can be traded out.

Bollocks! You've a wife to train you to do tricks and make purchases! No need to follow my lead :p

Nope none of that lisa,

All you have to do is drop the coil legs into the slots, and screw down. REAL EASY and a very good idea.

LOL, no worries :)

To be honest, if the FT ones work out ok then i'll just stick with them as i really arent much cop with this kind of thing... too small and fiddly for me!

Have you got an Octopus? An absolute doddle to rebuild, largely because it's big, the posts have holes in them to put your nichrome through and the screws are finger-tightening so you don't even need a screwdriver!

Having said that the dual-coil set-up that came with my igo-l from FT is still rocking. I won't replace it until it dies.

Hahahaha! I thought 'octopus' was a term for a 'looped' coil! An Octopus is a RDA! I have several of these from Fasttech!! OMGoodness, I have certainly learned quite a bit about my FT gear on this short break I've been on XD

That's how I feel when I look at the AGA T2 =] If she doesn't give me a good vape this weekend I'll be divorcing her, though... no excuses :p if I can get the Fasttech RDA/RBAs coiled and vaping great then the REAL THINGS should be working as hard! :p

I nearly bought the igo-l just a minute ago, but settled on the trident from FT, although i will prob pick up the octopus and the igo-l at a later date too :)

No wife here, and preferably no difficult coiling either, i prefer things calm and laid back ;)

I'll get a proper price sorted Terry for the RSST and a spare tank. They are the genuine smoketech ones too mate.

The thing I like about them is they have a spring on the positive post that you push down to trap the pos coil leg. Also the tank has a sealed bottom, almost like a cup, so there'll be no leaks and the positive post can be screwed in or out to get a good contact with the battery. Also the coil hole is insulated and you can have the wick touching the bottom of the tank with it being a sealed end on the tank.

God, I should be a salesman ;)

Marriage guidance time I think Lisa. You can't divorce such a sexy looking topper :laugh:

Just sit and admire it, it's a thing of beauty ;)

Okay, you've convinced me as well =] I am definitely testing the RSST out this weekend :p I've got to check the spring on the positive post... I'd already noticed the 'cup' style when I had it soaking =] The rest means nothing to me XD I've got to head to the desk, so each of you have a magnificent night and beginning of the weekend =] I'll pop on a bit later when I've run the others off.

Mayhaps I should check out the mesh coil that Fasttech has begun shipping with their toppers. They are selling it now, so when it's already installed it should be ready to vape, no? Otherwise they should package it apart...
