First timer

[dyanaprajna]

So I got my FT order today. For those of you who don't know, it was the gear for my coil rebuilds, first timer. I'm using the TFV8 rba. The kids went to bed, and I just wicked my first coil. It fired up right, from inner to outer on the coil, heated up evenly, got the cotton in, juiced it up, and filled up the tank. Now it's sitting here, on top of my 220 alien, and I'm a little anxious to hit it. But, I did have fun.

I used the coils that were already on the deck (I think they're Claptons?). .28 on the ohm meter, .30 on the mod, not a big discrepancy. No leaking, yet, which I've heard, at least used to, be a big problem for the TFV8 RBA. So I ramped it up like I would a pre-made coil, start low, small hits, and work up (I'm not even sure I need to do that on builds). But I got to the wattage I was at on the pre-made, and holy crap the clouds. Huge freaking clouds. BUT, I haven't got the flavor yet like I had on the pre-mades. Something I'll have to work on.
