it took me 6 weeks, but i finally killed a 1.8Ω coil!
i rinsed / dry burnt it yesterday, and it was fine all night. got up this morning, it flooded, blew it out, flooded again, blew out again, then when i put it back together got one dry hit and poof. dropped another 1.8Ω coil in same tank, and been going like a champ all day and not a single flood.
this is the first one i got from Rob, like 6 weeks ago, and has been filled with either my all-day (usa mix) or my alternate baccy blend (50/50 vanilla cupcake / 222) ... and most of the time it has been on a twist @ 4-4.2v ... i think if i had let it dry overnight instead of trying to burn it dry, it would still be going today.
