Yeah, I get that, I'm just wondering if the fact that the air travels through the vertical coil like through a tunnel makes a difference in vape quality. Also, if it allows people to vape at higher wattages because, perhaps, the air travelling in that manner cools the coil more efficiently.

Horizontal builds are much easier, of course, both to build and to rewick; I just wonder if there's some additional air magic going on. :D

Yes and no.

If you can suck air at same PSI or CFM, then position of the coil is almost Irrelevant to its cooling. 50cfm is 50cfm.

But, with horizontal coil, you cover more surface on the coil, thus tad tiny better cooling. Yet you are restricted by 50cfm in a wider space vs narrow space in a vertical coil. In the end, horizontal coils airflow is restricted by the body its surrounded by.

In other words; Vertical coil restricts it self by its inner diameter. Horizontal coil is restricted by the surrounding area in which it resides.

I have done this and it is a Noah's Flood machine. Those wide open juice holes are Noah's flood. I put wick or leave the sheathing in to prevent the flood.

I agree, and although it looks wide open in the pic I do have a small piece of 400 ss mesh in there and do not have flooding problems. My plan going forward is to double the size of the 400 ss mesh I used and fold it in half. That will create a double barrier and also hopefully make contact with the wall to better block the hole. This will ensure no flooding if I should go to a thinner juice.

I had the same results emailing them with concerns about the Vivi Nova minis falling apart at the base the same day I bought them. Then I had to send another email about a pack of BVC's I got that had inconsistencies like different o ring material and insulator material giving all sorts of issues from leaks to the firing pins. This is indeed a totally different email than a general inquiry or a product guarantee inquiry but they seem to not care much in general. For my faulty products I was asked for verification codes in which I didn't have because they weren't the kits but singles. After working that out and getting a credit and ordering from them directly they sent me singles that low and behold had no security codes. In the case of the coils I provided the security codes and they later claimed that the B&M must have found a distributor smart enough to produce fake codes. As far as that forum goes I am sure some of the members that aren't admins who prize them are involved with the company somehow or another as they seem to have more detailed information than their admins.

Really not at all a good company which is a shame because they could indeed be on to something good if they straighten up.

MESH! What a great idea since feeding a thin piece of wick into that space is impossible. Thanks!

Only when I did a micro (compressed touching) coil did I have to pulse it and fix hot legs. Thats another reason why I prefer the spaced coils now - no hot legs.

Thanks - that with the mesh is really good info. My attempts as vertical coils haven't resulted in very good vaping. Might as well just rebuild by Kayfuns.

In other words; Vertical coil restricts it self by its inner diameter. Horizontal coil is restricted by the surrounding area in which it resides.

And of course more area available surrounding a horizontal coil than the ID of a vertical coil. I find vertical coils tend to be a little drier and not as juicey as a horizontal coil. I use them in a Veritas and an Origen. Both vapes are good. Sometimes I prefer a drier vape. Flavorwise, for me, they are very comparable depending on wicking and coil construction and setup.

as consumers we just want info on products we are using

readyxwick statement from their website:

This picture was taken of a freshly cut untreated piece of Ceramic Wick Sleeving.
This is an example of what UNTREATED Ceramic Wick will do instantly when you cut it.
It is a great test to see if your Ceramic Wick is treated or not.
If it is NOT TREATED it will instantly fray and the end will unravel.
DO NOT USE your Ceramic Wick if it does this.
It is NOT treated and NOT healthy to use for any purpose.

There is a replacement or non authentic version of the Atlantis coil sold on FT. Some think it could be authentic versions. And the material used for it is ceramic cotton fiber or called ceramic cotton fiber. Any info on this material?

I like the idea of someone else doing the work. Pre-Made Vaping Coils - 28 Gauge Kayfun Chimney Double Twisted Coils - 1.15 Ohms - Vaping Cotton Online
