Man the pictures are great! I can't like any of them they make the word "inadequate" ring round in my head as I go.

I love all you coil builders though and I am mixing juice today so oh well, it's good to be good at something.

I find it hard to believe you are inadequate in any way. You ROCK Anna!

@ Rob B & Vaper 1960, you guys nailed it, I was trying to take a picture in too dark a room and the camera wasn’t differentiating stuff. I got in there a little better with the last clapton/kanthal shot using the flash:thumb: I’m back to that spot where the coils look dirty (dessert flavor) but vapes the best. They’re broken in perfectly, but don’t look all that good otherwise I’d post a shot.:blush:

@ Redneck, can you post a top down shot of that triple coil? I’ve not seen that before. Can you list ga./ohms etc for me?

@ Skunk - dope:thumb:

@ stols - it just takes a little practice, I’m sure you could do it no problem. Mixing juice takes way more work and most likely a discerning touch (I’ve only done it once and not tasted it yet). You can get clapton wire pre-spooled to and practice wrapping it up so if it’s something you’d like to do don’t talk yourself out of it.:cool:

Oh I COIL. And build. I just have a fine motor tremor (which is improving) so my poor little atomizers look like something out of Charles Dickens. Heh.

Thank you for the stunning endorsement dear @Don29palms . I most distinctly feel I SUCK today, I missed work today because when I woke up I was 100% convinced it was Saturday. I went back to sleep. I am 100% convinced that may be the lamest reason EVER to miss work, possibly Also I have to mix yet, I better start eating better because my new thyroid med caused me to like, gain 15 lbs in 3 weeks and me and my PREVIOUSLY quiescent for like 12 years eating disorder and my sanity are battling it out.

It's not good. I may SUCK today, but I will probably like, feel better SOON. I hope. I called to talk to my doc because if my BRAIN cannot tell me what day of the week it is accurately that is some dang poor nutrition. LOL. I guess I'm gonna have to CHILL on this or something.

I hate thyroid OMG whatever is happening in your body is like-- it doesn't show up for 8 weeks in labwork. If I have to like, deal with thyroid weight gain madness until that time, I don't know what I will do. My doc will probably just tell me to suck it up. I'm guessing. I will have to explain to her that "trying to suck it up" is sort of brutally impossible if you have an ED. I had a MEAL PLAN. I had an EXERCISE plan. They WORKED. For like 12 YEARS.

It's kind of, well, scary to realize how quickly you remember how to "lose" weight. It isn't good. IDK what I will do if she doesn't like, FIX IT.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. LOL. I have now polluted the coil thread. I promise if I come back, I will post one of my little, ah, coil builds.

I have posted these many times. Mohawk coils by VAPEROXX. These are my favorite, they are still in use after months of service.

My dead rabbit with kanthal claptons running at .20 watt using cotton gods and dedicated to mint choc chip (my own juice)vaping at 75 watts, top flavour
Might go to 85 as I've not had any dry hits and no spitback

Just an heads up, I've wicked this tank loads of times and it can be a bit of pain to get full flavour, best I've found is keep your coils about a millimetre above the posts and centre the coils with a gap of about 1.5 to 2 millimeters

Hey highteck, I'm thinking of doing a 3 coil build on my dead rabbit rta, thinking 2.5 mm coils, not sure about what wire I'm going to go with and how to get about the resistance of the middle coil will be a bit higher, I'm sure I'll work something out but decided to ask you first, love that 3 setup, nice build.

That will be extremely hot in an RTA if you can fit it in the chamber. You very likely have wicking issue also.

I might buy another rabbit just to play with, it's pretty versatile and I've vaped single coil with it, I'm not messing around with the I set up, it's vaping superb at 90 watts and it chains if I wanted to, the coils will last a good few months cleaned between each rewick
If you want to start doing some crazy builds get an RDA with a velocity style deck. Easy to build on especially when doing oddball stuff. When I get some crazy idea for doing a coil I know I probably shouldn't I use my Vapergate Gemini 30mm first. Then I'll adapt it to something else. My Gemini has had vertical quad coils and horizontal coils in it at one time or another. Again, fun to play with but that's it. For big verical coils like parallel series coils and such pick up an Apocalypse or a Goon. Even a clone is good.

Yeah, I just can't get my head round rdas, I've got a few tanks plus the squonk pins, I do love the intense flavour but I don't have a squonk mod at the moment, I'm just trying to get the best results from my rtas right now, I have sorted the rabbit build out, love it,now I'm going to try to get my reload and manta to work how I want

SaddlehorseBlues Tsuka coil on the BB Vapes B2K

I was entertaining the thought of picking one of those atomizers up and it looks like that ship has sailed. Unless you want a clone of course but I’d rather have the actual atty.

There may be one in Canada but it doesn’t come with a cap, so I’d have to hunt down a cap.

I'm thinking of a goon if I decide to go crazy haha

Hey! I just picked up a goon 1.5 about 15 minutes ago. First clamp style atomizer ever for me. I hear the version 1, the metal they used can bend if you really get down on your screws and they fixed that with the 1.5. The squank area is a little different too + better airflow with the 1.5. A tidbit of info if you decide to go through with it. Other than that they look about the same to me.

Albert (the designer behind BB Vapes) probably just ran out of the last production run.

The link below is his store, the B2K RSA states more is on its way. Drop him a line, I’m sure he can answer their arrival. Failing that, he does sell decks and caps separately. He is a generous man, ordering from him I will guarantee you will get your monies worth, juice, battery wraps thrown in with your order.

He also has used/refurbish section on his online store – check there, the B2K sometimes appear, but usually bundled together with a mod.
