Anyone here used fasttech.

This is my coiling stand... a plastic coated rod from a wire basket that I wrap my wire on, clipped to a magnification stand, the $6.21 SE MZ101B Helping Hands with Magnifying Glass. I wrap 6 and then leave a larger loop to clip for the legs of the coil. When I need a coil, I clip it from the rest and place it over a toothpick as suggested by a friend. This AM I installed both fasttech premade coils that range between 1.8 to 2.2oHm

Fasttech Replacement Wicks and Wires for Rebuildable Atomizer - 1.8ohm
Fasttech Replacement Wicks and Wires for Rebuildable Atomizer - 2.0ohm

and my own coils, shown here that ranged between 1.4 and 1.8oHm using fasttech silica and some 32 gauge Kanthal wire

Fasttech Silica Wick for Rebuildable Atomizers (5M / 16.4ft)

101vapes Kanthal .20mm (32 Gauge)

I really want to get some Ecowool, but I am going to wait until I use up some of this silica. I have one question... I did a double coil on one of my drippers, 1.5oHm each and it gave me a reading of 3.0oHm overall. How high an oHm can I use? Does it matter?

Not able to answer your question Lisa, but how are you finding the Silica wicks from FT? I've seen a lot of people on here and various other forums saying that silica is no good, and to go for cotton wool..

 

[lisancentraltx]

The silica disintegrates easily in juice, which I hate, but I haven't used the wool, or even the cotton as some are using. If I can find a good replacement, I'll change over, but for now silica is being sold many places, so I hope that it is not dangerous!

lisa the only diffrence a high ohm coil will make is, it will produce less vapour because of the higher resistance.

I have never read anywhere that silica is dangerous, and yes the ekowool is a lot better it tends to soak a lot more juice; therefore giving a cleaner better vape.

I don't mind less vapor! I prefer it at work, in fact =] Didn't you tell us about the toothpick, Terry? I can't remember if it was Ian or you! Whichever, it's been working WONDERS with my building coils!

It is really a good easy way to build coils.

Well I'm back [

Glad to see you lot obeyed the rules while I was gone

Can't believe how cold it is here, high 20's in Portugal. Got the heating on full blast and I'm still shivering.

Thought I was gonna get my mods confiscated at Faro airport, took my Chi-you, SVD and Bagua with me (plus the Vmod for some stealth on the plane). Coming through Customs, excuse me Sir can I check your hand luggage - had the mods, batteries and some evods and novas in a big e-cig case. She's looking at the mods, shows them her colleague, I said their just e-cigs. Finally the Manager came over, glanced at them and waved me through. I'm not having my mods sitting in some Portugese holding area for weeks

Got home, to a fully painted kitchen and lounge - thanks to my step daughter.

Was hoping the Provari from Lisa, would be waiting for me. Checked the tracking on-line, it's gone via Australia. At this rate, it will have had a better holiday than me, hope it gets a sun tan

My FT wishlist has just grown again too, watch this space for future ordering info

It was probably me Lisa that told you about the toothpick. Terry's memory isn't what it used to be. In any case, I'll still take all the credit

AUSTRALIA! OMG! I should have chosen the cheapest SHIPPING!

It's good to have you back =] Not a lot happening except I got a MVP2 stateside and I ADORE IT! I've put my other mods away, except for the eGos because I hate changing out toppers :/ the pin in the MVP2 needs to be pulled up with different toppers and some say it's because of over tightening :/

Thanks Lisa, It's good to be back home. Only problem is, I'm back in work in about 10 hours

Can't understand, why the parcel has gone to Australia

Bet the MVP2 lasts a long time on a single charge. The pin pulling will be down to over tightening a bit too much, some mods seem to be prone to this, more than others. Now I just try and keep the same tank on the same mod most of the time, makes things a little easier.

First thing I did when I got home was put my batteries on charge, I've used 4 x 18650s 3 x 18350s and 1 x 14500 while I've been away. As well as about 60ml of juice, some serious vaping has been going on in Portugal

Be back later (or tomorrow).

Hello and goodbye to everyone

Good to have you back mate,

How did you find it vaping in the airport Ian ? I got some funny looks when i did it, But had no problems at all. Same on the flight.

No problem at all vaping in Manchester or Faro. No funny looks or anything, to be honest though, I wasn't really paying much attention. Didn't see anyone else vaping though at Faro. One or two in Manchester were walking around with little ego's on neck lanyards, but I didn't see them being used.

On the plane, they made a point of saying no smoking or e-cigs. So I asked the chief stewardess about using an APV. She said what's that, so I showed her the Vmod. She said, you're not supposed to use any e-cigs or anything that works like an e-cig on the plane. So I just went in the loo a few times and double inhaled - so no vapour

On the way back though, there was a lot of turbulence, so we had to stay seated. I just leaned forward to look out the window and took a few crafty draws, nobody around even knew I was doing it

Yes it has been very quiet, as you have probably noticed. cody has been on once, as he is having trouble with his back.

That is the hyper tank clone mate,

If it performs as well as the authentic ones you will be a very happy bunny. I have been doing a lot of shouting about these in different threads, they really are that good.
