Evolv-ing Thread

[dwcraig1]

Well I didn't find my 2nd Skyline, found it's box and goody bag though. I really looked for it, never actually lost one before. I thought maybe I gave it to my friend but discounted that, too complicated for him. I got so frustrated that I ordered another one.

Well dwcraig1, I have similar problems. For example I have 8 Subtanks, but only 7 boxes. Where 1 box disappeared to, I have no idea. I know I bought 3 Aromamizer Supreme (1 SS and 2 in black). But I can only find 1 SS and 1 black. The only thing I can think of is, I never opened the 3rd one and it is still in a storage box somewhere.

Are ya sure Bill. I thought you only bought in multiples of 2

@Steamer861 Here's some of my wire currently in rotation, all the black spools are Zivipf. To be honest I've had great TC results with the AVS 316L fused (28x2 & 28x3), but I use Jaquith's (Evolv Forum) SS316L V4 wire profile, it runs a little hotter than stock SS316L.

There are a few spools of Kidney Puncher Nifethal 70 not in the picture, it has a TCR of 0.005250 but the resistance is super low, 85 wraps of 24ga and it's still below 0.1Ω... I see they have a custom CSV for the wire, I'll have to pull it down and check it out.

I could send you a few feet of the Zivipf NiFe48 to try out but all I have is 24ga. That would save you the cost of an order on wire that you might not like.

And my flat wire is actually 0.8mm x 0.3mm, here I thought it was 0.2mm...


You have to use the flat wire to get the benefit of that "cuel wape"

Was informed last night that the Mothership (steam crave) will be releasing a squonker in the not so distant future, dual 21700 and a YiHi chipset. Hopefully it's a good YiHi and not a sh*t Pioneer4U class YiHi. It's supposedly a collaboration with another unnamed manufacturer, so we'll see how that works out, hopefully it's not Dovopo, vaporesso, CoV or any of that ilk.

I also need to impress upon them that they need to design a bridge for the Billet Box, it would take months but might be something good.

Well that leaves me out. I tried giving Yihi three tries and I hated all 3 of their boards. No way am I going to try a fourth time with them. Those people believe innovation means by adding a fidget spinner and that's the only thing they did innovative in the year 2018.

Funny you mentioned that. I was jokingly going to mention during a Topside Dual conversation that Steam Crave was releasing a 4 cell Titan squonker

dual 21700 and a YiHi chipset.

Yihi Chip Set Dual 21700 sounds good thou

I hated all 3 of their boards.

I to have several Yihi mods collecting Dust

Troll, thanks for the offer I will eventually order a few rolls from them, curiosity killed the cat!
You should Strongly advise the group against the Yihi Chip! The DNA is so much better
The only reason for using a $ chip is TC & Yihi don't do it well Any cheep chip will do for VW!

This is why I stay behind the curve on anything (not just vaping) that's the latest and greatest, well unless it's really inexpensive, than I might give it a try. I wait for honest everyday folks to give their opinions of how they like products and services, I don't put much weight into reviews from folks who get free stuff to review and/or paid for reviews unless I've followed them long enough to know they are truly impartial. Another perk is by the time I'm ready to pull the trigger the mad dash for a new release is over and the prices often come down, win-win. I get something less likely to be unhappy with and it cost me less, I can wait.

 

[BillW50]

I agree for the most part SlickWilly. But some things you snooze, you lose. Like those XvoStick DNA60, they only do a small batch run every once in awhile and you don't know if this time is their last or not. And look at what Punk In Drublic has. It is just gorgeous! I didn't even know they made them in full silver. I am trying to find one now and I am having a hell of a time getting one.

 

[Punk In Drublic]

Can’t speak for shipping, customs, duties, taxes etc, ~$150 US once converted if you do not mind ordering from Canada. The place where I purchased mine, which no longer is offering them at discount, states they do have them in stock and ships internationally. I grabbed mine for $160 CAN which equals ~$120 US

I'm not part of the star chamber for that design, just caught a little psst, psst, psst as I was sweeping past the doors... YiHi is designing the board specifically for this collaborated squonker, I don't know why any of them don't use Evolv boards. Probably because they can get the YiHi for pennies a piece and all of the manufacturers are under the control of one massive Chinese Electronics Consortium.

That would be massive and they would probably put a 6ml YFTK bottle in it.

Speaking of the Titan, I really need to finish the wooden mod a buddy made for it. I have the 510, fire button and repurposed Drag board mounted, I just need to JB Weld the battery sled in and solder it all up. The Titan is such a novelty tank though...

I still need to see why my Luxotic is in continous fire mode (no juice got inside) and convert the Pulse BF over to iSwitch (Big Al's mosfet board)... Too many other little projects on the go from SWBMO.

My first "Plus" should arrive Thursday. I already coiled the single coil insert and its just sitting on my desk waiting..... I used the same TI fused claptons that I use in my Merlins, a 4/5 wrap with a 3mm ID, about 0.14 ohms.

I think it will look good on the ERM+ mods. Interested to see how it vapes, if nothing else the 10ml capacity will be great for my nightstand mod.

 

[dwcraig1]

Well, remember something about some old Dicodes tube mod that went to the classies, guess what RTA is sittng on it...yep a Skyline. While looking for my 2nd Skyline I moved it several times....DUH

The 10 mil capacity is such a huge Pro, they have a 15mil bubble glass available now to.
Mine are in the mail & should arrive this week, I'm hoping?
SC is one of the only companies that comes out with retro fits, the postless deck the single coil deck now the bubble glass. I'v been using my Plus's for about a year now, & my V1 Supremes for a lot longer than that, thats getting your monies worth

 

[TrollDragon]

Or kick it up into 20ml mode...

 

[cigatron]

Awesome, a Fender Twin Tweed!!

 

[Rossum]

I believe that just leaves Kanthal, Titanium, or SS430 Rossum.

Yep, and that's entirely OK by me.

Heck most atomizers are made from SS316 or SS304 which also contains nickel.

Yes, they do, but the percentage is quite a bit lower than straight nickel, NiFe, Nichrome, or the like. Plus the atty itself isn't subject to the kind of thermal cycling that a coil is.

It's entirely possible that my reactions to nickel-containing coils were coincidental rather than actual effects. However, it happened three times. Once with nichrome, once with R41, and once with straight nickel. Those reactions didn't come immediately either; it was generally after 3-5 days of using a coil in my ADV mod. The symptoms cleared up within a day or two of switching to Kanthal or Titanium. After that, I said: "No more nickel for me!"
