Yep! Not to shabby, not to shabby at all!
I don't think they'll replace my beloved recoils, especially now that I'm using 325 mesh instead of gauze.
But they are an impressive vape. Too bad it's so hit and miss with the 1.2's.

So true, I was not a fan of the 1.2 because seemed so easy to burn and then it was one and done. However, once I start experimenting with re-coiling, I might find use for them old coils yet. :)

My FT came in today and got all my supplies but the cotton. This weekend I plan on sitting down and seeing what I come up with. I bought a cheap RDA (IGO-L) to practice on and thought eventually it could be a flavor tester.

Good for you for throwing your hat over the wall! Once you get the basics down, you'll wonder what you ever worried about. :thumbs:

Hey RC: I did stumble across them! And saw the Bases! Then I saw all the different Bell Caps! Oh Boy! There is another Style I Kind of like too! But, do you know the Size of the Bell Caps You have and Show in the Photos? I need to get my Bearings on these! Have you made different sized Tanks or have you just stayed with one size? And with the size You Use how many ml do they hold? They have some Really Stubby Bell Caps that would probably look decent on the iStick Mini! I see that some are using them on their Russians too!

If You Don't Mind Me Asking? Where you finding your .75 Coils at that Price? I just got some at a Going out of Business Sale 50% Off at 777ecig for that price but have not seen them anywhere else at that price?

Thanks Brother

Sweet-vapes has decent deals on bell caps for the STM.
or you can just order bases, RBa's and bell caps from FT and make your own.

I have plenty of rebuilt coils for my GS-Tank in Nickel, but ran out of coils for my iStick 20W, I've been using the Aspire K1s on that one, which are essentially skinnier versions of the GS coils without the raised portion around the vapor hole in the top. So far I've got 7 of the 8 I planned on doing done in 1.5 and 1.7 Ohm, 6 and 7 wraps of 30 GA kanthal, the reason for the 7 out of 8 is the inner wrap actually stayed in those outer caps! Yeah! Didn't have to mess with the non-woven gauze like the next one needs! Tried them out and they all vape great! Well back to work!

I bit on the .75 ohm coils and have to admit, it's a pretty good vape! Rolled the dice and was surprised at how much I like them.
Did I just put the mojo on my ....? :shock:


You're a sub-ohmer now? The dark side you must fight, Cheechako...

I'm just on the Dark Side for a vacation, it was a good sale. :D
I wish it was enough of a difference from my recoils for a move into the neighborhood. :)

LVM!!!! I was thinking about you today! And...getting ready to send out a search party! :)
I hope it was nothing bad! ;)
Been busy with my nugget and wedding stuff. Glad to know someone was thinking about me, though! :)

combine that with TC, and it might just change your mind! 30GA Ti 7 wraps at 2.5mm will give you a .7 Ohm coil.
I dipped my toe in, that would be diving in. :laugh:
I tried a bit of TC and wasn't impressed enough to continue. Of course, with all the variables of TC,
it may not have presented the best side.

Something bad? No!!! Never! I just noticed that you hadn't been around lately and that I hoped nothing was wrong! :)

Nothing wrong, Lynn. Doing quite well actually. And since it's been a while, here's your daily dose of cuteness
