So i just got my cyclone AFC. Fixed it up with dual twisted 32g micro coils coming in at 0.6ohms. Im still trying to figure out how open the airholes should be and how fast/strong should my draw be? I do mouth draws and it seems at half opened, my draw is kinda short, resulting in not much vapor. Do you guys normally draw slowly? I find pulling a fast one tends to fill your mouth quickly and not much vapor intake.

Also, i find the juice spitting out of the airholes. Is this normal for a low ohm setup? I have my coils set fairly new the airholes. I find the vape more flavourful too. But not sure if its the juice spitting up and me inhaling it :?: as I feel the aftertaste of the juice in my mouth some times. The vaporizing is rather loud with the popping and crackling and Im quite certain some juice is being spat upwards and out the airholes when I inhale. Lol...

Help is greatly appreciated! :)

How tight is your twist and coil setup? At 0.6ohms, uneven twist can make a big initial pop and spit the juice out. Also, if your coils on both side aren't exactly the same resistance, more chance of juice pop from hotter side.

As for the draw, at 0.6ohms, vapor should be coming at you faster than you can draw in if you are only doing mouth. And it would be pretty hot vapor too. If you are not getting this, something wrong with the setup. Why don't you post a pic.

Okay so placing the coil nearer to the airhole but adjusting it to just over 1mm size and taking slower but longer mouth drag gives poor vapor.

however assuming the same position of the coil but opening the airhole to wide open and taking slower but longer mouth drag gives slightly better vapor but still poor overall compared to my Igo-W4. But if i take a long lung drag, vapor improves tremendously but a tendency to choke. Lol.

I find it weird that on my Igo-W4, the airhole is small but I can take longer mouth drags and produce almost the same amount of vapor as a wide open airhole on the cyclone but needs a lung hit.

Anyone experience this? Or is it that my coils are too near the airhole on my cyclone.
