    Crap ... I need a manual for some acronyms ...
    I'm sittin' here trying to figure it out ...o_O... then said f-it that's what google is for.
    This Thread Is Worthless Without Pictures ... true. :lol: Duh!!!

    I need one too, trust me. Didn't know whats FOMO was (and I've never had it BTW ;)) nor half the acronyms used on ECF. It's an edjukation ;)

    I had to look THAT one up too. Back when Fidola13 used it in the Shiny thread. :confused:
    I've never had FOMO. If I miss something, too bad, I don't care.
    Wait, wait, wait, backup ... unless it is the proper 1 of 1 purple Luna!!! :lol:
    Maybe I do have FOMO, oh no, doctor, doctor. :facepalm:

    So you're getting the outside setup sorted @YorkMan. Because I think that it may well be highly possible if you try using it inside, that you may experience a long period of time outside.

    But your building is certainly improving with each and every build, hopefully by now it's become somewhat easier for you. But as I've noticed, you have to find the right build for each atomiser through just trying it.

    And when you get round to your Ammit 25, I found that a simple spaced 27AWG 6 wrap Stainless Steel round wire coil gives some reasonably impressive results.

    Oh right, around 30 watts with 0.5 ohms on that mosfet mech mod. I do like clouds I must admit.

    2.5mm ID 6 wraps I think. I did the build really fast!

    Was that dual coil? With each coil being 0.5 ohms? That would be a 0.25 ohm build overall, and considerably more than 30 watts on the mech.

    I use my Aegis Solo as a build deck, to check actual resistance, for burn in and then a final resistance check after wick is installed and priming just to be sure. I want to develop a good procedure since I have several mech mods on order. I don’t need any battery surprises!

    Good stuff ... I'll just expand it a bit here ... after wicking, priming, and capped ... I don't consider my final atty resistance checked until it's checked with the cap on.

    Here's a question: should I regularly pull the atty off a mech and check its resistance on an ohm meter/regulated mod to be sure it's still reading the same as when I built it? Sure, it could still short on the mech, but I thought it might make sense to monitor its status daily just to be a bit safer.

    I don't use my mech every day, but every day I do, I check it. Who knows... Maybe today is the day the insulator decides to fail.
