Sometimes "language" is called for.

The center pin is in the center..........OMG! You guys know SO much about all of this. I don't even know here the center pin is!
Mud, you can not believe the day I've had. Getting the PM to you now.![]()
Part of the problem is that I would literally have to go out and get everything in that video. The wire cutters, the wire, the needle... everything, with the exception of the rayon, which one generous member has so kindly offered to donate.
In case you haven't noticed, I'm not exactly the type of gal who just has that stuff lying around the house.

You really don't, Lost. You can try to rebuild with whatever you have handy--even plain cotton balls from a drugstore, organic preferably. All you need is some kind of a metal rod (a drill bit, a piece of a wire clothes hanger from dry cleaners or a large nail, whatever, heck, you can even use a toothpick) ca 2mm diameter and you're set. You can use nail clippers or you can twist the wire off. Honest. That's how I started. Your istick will read your coil's resistance so you don't even need an Ohm's reader.
Question: Has anyone had the following issues:
1- My Air tank always spits and pops at me. I have used a variety of wattages ranging from 8-13w with no difference and on different blends too. 50/50, 65/35 (high vg), 80/20 (high vg).
2 - I put a new coil into my tank and primed it. I am using a very clear juice. I didnt vape the entire tank last night and when I woke up, the color of the liquid had changed to brown/amber/caramel color. Is there something wrong with the coils? This happened with a previous coil as well.
You're welcome...I saw that coming.![]()
This has always been my thought on it, there was a big debate a while ago on what caused juice
to darken. Between the heat and the .... wicking out of the coil...take a look at the coil I took apart on the blog, he's right, it goes both ways!
Probably not, the only tank/tanks I have that do that are kanger subtanks. I figured it was due to that massive hole in the top of the coil exposing a relatively large diameter coil and lots O air pulling thru and up out of it. But I could be wrong.![]()
Nope. No spitting here. Snap crackle and pop sounds are OK, but not spitting. Check the connections in your tank, gaskets, o-rings... Lower wattage is necessary. It should not spit.
Again, no browning here. I hate when that happens. The only atty that it to me was the eGo-C... And cartomizers, of course. Don't know what to tell you.
I am, but I want to play with 30 gauge Kanthal and see if it's easier to work with.
thanks Cheechako for the coil building video..
I rebuilt my first coil.. used 10 wraps 28ga on a 17 gauge needle with rayon.. for the outer layer wrap I used some of my old supply of Lipton pyramid tea bag material..
It came out to 1.4ohm and is vaping great.. I have used about 4mls so far and no flooding,gurgling or leaks..
The Gs-air is quite the tank.. my gennies are feeling lonely, since I got it..
Thanks to the op for posting about it..
Those of you old enough to remember the blue screen of death will identify with my feelings when the display told me, "No atomizer".
Disassembled, tightened, etc. Nope.

Birdie, I get the spitting all the time, and all the other Rice Krispies sounds. I notice the spitting mostly if I haven't hit it for a while. That's when I usually give it "priming" fire away from my face to let the juice pop out somewhere other than in my mouth. That almost sounds obscene.![]()
