definatly sounds like something i would like to try, thanks. i love to order vaping stuff and stalk the mail, sometimes i swear i can see through my mail box. i come down the street and say, nope its not here today, and i am always right. the next day i say, yes its there, and i am right again.
i dont know what he might be doing, but i think i would like to try a 1/8 ceramic wick, 28g, maybe around 1-Ω at like 4.5 volts. i love the flavor of the 28g wire, but on ceramic you get this lag time, maybe that little extra volts might be good.
Busardo review on the Vamo:
A PBusardo Review - The Vamo - YouTube
He mentions reverse battery protection, short circuit protection and he "thinks" it won't fire any thing less than a 1.2ohm coil. I am not sure if this holds true for stacked 18650s. Anyone tried a sub 1.2 with stack batteries?

Yes..did the hot wrap on the 3/32 ( with bare fingers.....lol). The coil is a 5/6 using .8mm = 28g round. With the .8mm ribbon, you really need to hit the wire harder with the blue flame to get it to take. I dont remember if I posted it earlier but this is the set-up. (You wouldn't believe what it looks like now, but I dont want to disturb it.)
that is a thing of beauty. that couldnt of been easy to do, especially the leads. i would like to try this but only have like 3- 3/32 wicks and they dont do them anymore, maybe to risky for me, not that good with ribbon.
never stacked batterys myself. personally i thought the vamo, no matter what configuration you did wouldnt work under 1.2 Ω, so when you said it could fire under like 1 ohm i was interested, but if it doesnt, i dont know. have you actually fired a 1-ohm coil or lower on it in the configuration that you mentioned before with the 2 batterys?
No I haven't. I said low res but I have never tried anything lower than 1.2. Sorry if I confused you
. Are you wrapping sub 1 ohm on 1/8 wicks now? Do you still prefer the 3/32 at around 1.3 ohms with 30g?
No I haven't. I said low res but I have never tried anything lower than 1.2. Sorry if I confused you
i have 3 set-ups going right now. my favorite is a 3/32 wick with 30g, 4/5 wrap @1.1Ω. the second is a 1/8 wick with 30g, 3 wraps @1Ω, the last is another 1/8 wick with .8 ribbon, this is about .09 to 1.0 Ω. very rarely do i go over 1.2 ohms. the last set-up i had over 1.2 was a 1/8 wick with 30g with a 4/5 wrap, this was about 1.4Ω, this was vaping really good but took it down to try the ribbon, but at 1.4 Ω the provari works it fine at 4.5ish volts. i think i was interested in the vamo for a second to try a 1Ω coil with 28g wire at around 4.5 volts, this is not obtainable with current mods unless you stack batterys in a mechanical mod so i dont do it. this is why i would love a vv device that is 100 percent protected that can run something like this, but not sure if its possible now, like a provari that has a 9 amp/ 20 watts limit, i would buy it tonight
Yes on the ceramic. 1/8" wick with 0.5 ribbon 4/5 wrap at 1.4ohms currently at 5.5v.

I very carefully nibble off tiny bits with a pair of pliers. WARNING: do not get greedy and try to nip off too much. I did this once and the shockwave produced when the pliers snapped shut was enough to break the wick about half way up. Small and gently is the ticket.
I feel the same way! Except I watch the tracking like a hawk... Lol! It's kind of funny how the package would teleport. I ordered juice from Alice in Vapeland, first day it didn't have it in the system, next three days it was electronically accepted and then BAM! It's in transit! lol
I've been vaping my 2 liquids with these ceramic wicks now for 2 tank fulls so far. I just can't get the flavor yet. I'm using the same wire I used with the mesh wicks. My coils are tight and I'm getting very little build up on the coils. I have not tried the Hot Wrap yet.
1.2 is the lowest you can go. and ive tried imr 18650's, stacked imr 18350's, and protected 18650's. they all work fine in it, but you cant go under 1.2
i have done hot wraps, and although not super tight, i get more flavor with the cotton string method than hot wraps. the string method just seems to guarantee to work good. and i get more flavor. try this method
I saw this video a couple of days ago and bought the cheesecloth yesterday. I will try it now. Thanks
yea, but you dont need cheescloth. gauze pads work. i use ones i got from a hospital. all natural.
