Never fails, I can get it off one coil but the other coil it sticks and breaks the coil. The one coil still works, but defeats the whole dual part. LOL
Dual Coil Cartos

Yup. use filler from another carto. Exacto knife a small strip of filler from one you've killed. Wrap around the coil on one end and feed in to the filler on the other.
I'm talking about what to use to replace the wraps around the coils. Instead of using teabag or similar, just use some filler from one of the cartos that's dead. En exacto knife goes through it like butter so you can make the length and thickness you want. The filler in these is amazing stuff and won't burn.
In the dual coil review thread started by stownz, someone mentioned that the wraps around the coils in their cartos were filler and not paper. I've cut up a bunch of these now and haven't seen that yet, but it wouldn't surprise me if Smoke Tech has changed their manufacturing process a little bit. Maybe newer runs of these will be like that, or maybe they ran out of paper one day.

I got a batch with paper, found holes in it after taking one apart, it does seem like some type of paper and it still works after re-arranging the paper a bit but it's probably not the best solution, I'm going to try some wicking material I picked up (silica rope) the next time I take one apart.
These things work very nice, no leaks, consistent vapes, I only took the one apart more out of curiosity than bad performance. I'm running the 1.5's on rivas, it seems to hit better than a 3.7 box mod I have. No problems with the switch and if they wear down quicker I don't care, I'd rather replace batteries occasionally vs. constantly fiddling with leaks, wicking, etc.
Any fireplace or wood stove shop has silica rope. It's the same stuff they seal the wood stove doors with. Since you're in Spokane, I bet there's a stove shop near you.

Yeah, putting the wick outside of the coil does work, just a matter of finding the proper material. The coils are pretty sturdy so maybe some of that wicking could go through them as well. Anyway, something to tinker with I suppose, the life of a vaper...

Got my 1st pack of duals today. Fired up the first one after filling it up, and I guess I over filled. After puffing for 30 minutes or so, it finally started vPing fine. I have a chuck and a saber touch, and they both work great with the dual and my 18650's, and I have all different kinds of 18650's. I tried the duals with my 2 tenergy 3v rcr123a batts at 6 volt, and nothing, on my chuck or touch. I guess the batts are my problem. Does anyone know what batteries I can use for 6volt vaping with these?
I got some of these in today. I used the condom method for filling (4 loads) and then dripped the top with some trusty Rad Bull from Good Prophets and WOW. I am using a 5v PT and a 5V madvapes box mod. If they last and continue to perform like this I will not look elswhere for atomizers or cartomizers. Great product!
I finally broke down and bought a pack of the Clear DC Cartos. I love the metal ones and I couldn't resist checking these out as well. So far.....so good. It's great to be able to see the liquid inside. I had no idea how long it actually took for the juice to reach the bottom and completely saturate the polyfill. There are also small air pockets that I suspect will go away as it breaks in. Hopefully, the tubes will be a little more durable than the CE2's.
WOW !!! Just got my dual coils, metal ones and they are great.
I'm using a buzz and what a big difference, now I have to get the
clear ones
. I think my regular xl clearo's are going to get a break.

I have a problem with one of my dual coils, put it in my buzz this morning and it doesnt work.
It just wont fire up and the batteries are charged, so I put a regular carto on the pv to see
if that worked and it did, so just to see if the dual coil was dead or not I put it on a 510 battery
and it works . The dc was working great last night when I took it off, So I put on a new dc on pv
and that works great. I tried using a adapter thinking it's just not making contact but no help,any
ideas why.
