Nice. It better vape well. I don't think I'll ever have the patience to wind a fused clapton like that.
Just learned a valuable lesson. Don't lay my Aromamizer on its side! Put it in my case with my other spare tanks this morning in my briefcase laying on its side. Went to get it a few minutes ago and found it laying in a puddle of e liquid with half the tank drained! Hmmm... I guess with no way to close off the juice flow and with the wide open airflow this one will stay home in the rack in its upright position when I'm not vaping it [emoji853]

I was helping my mechanic so I put it in my jacket pocket.
My hand got juiced when I pulled my Aromamizer/mod out a few minutes later.
At least it was just the rig and didn't mess my pocket.
I can hear it now - "Why is your pocket sticky and smell like apple pie a la mode?"
So easy to build this compared to MT & Mutank and that damn VCMT can SMMFD!
Not fussy about wicking, plenty of room for 2.5mm 24g, perfect @ .22Ω & 77.5W
Will 3mm Claptons fit in this thing? 2.5mm?
Let me rephrase that:
Will 3mm horizontal Claptons fit in this thing? 2.5mm?

I was getting dry hits.
I read to not block the juice holes in the deck so I stuffed the wick ends to the outside ends of the deck.
Dry hit at the end of each big draw.
I pulled the wick ends towards the middle so the juice holes were "behind" them and I can chain vape till I get dizzy. Not a hint of a dry hit. Same wicks, totally different wicking.

Hmm.. horizontal or vertical coils?
Never had a problem with dry hits on my verticals with the tails over the feed holes. Long draws, chain vaping at 50W. I'm just careful not to over-stuff the tails in the deck.
I'm so jealous. I'm still getting dryish hits. I even pulled my wicks up until they were just touching the bottom and then pushed them back so I could see the holes. [emoji31]
I would venture a guess that your wick is too tight.
Nah. I got it into the coils just fine and I can slide it back and forth with slight resistance, but no bunching. I don't have any more rayon in these coils than I do in any other mod with 3mm id claptons.
I went ahead and recoiled. Dropped down to 2.5mm 7 wrap, reading .43 ohms. Wicking for whatever reason seems to be better. I guess it was just too much coil, too much wick for this particular juice feed system.
When we say don't stuff the holes it doesn't mean don't cover them, it just means don't pack the cotton down or try and cram it in there. If you're struggling with dry hits and keeping the holes clear, the lack of wick there is probably actually contributing to the bottom.
If the variables of build/juice/use align then the Aromamizer will wick whatever wherever, but most of the time you're gonna need wick on top of the holes to help pull the juice up, the vacuum is working against you otherwise.
If you weren't overpacking your cotton/rayon in there to begin with, chances are your dry hit issues weren't wick related anyway. I'd be looking at my coils, juice, air and power settings as more likely culprits in that scenario.

For whatever reason sizing down the coils a bit seems to have done the trick. I've nearly made it through a full tank at 80W on these new coils without issue.
The v1 RDTA works best with 2.5mm. 3mm works but air flow is more restricted.
OOT....but...The new Supreme works best above 3mm as the deck space is bigger and the wicking is more forgiving than v1 due to larger juice feeds
