Received the SS317L wire today in the mail. Made a new coil (8 wraps, 3mm), mounted it dead smack in the middle; I cut the legs too short, so couldn’t mount it higher.

Stuffed the coil with wick but, thined out and raked the tails. The tailes are 1mm above the bottom of the tank and not touching the floor/tank.

Lots of flavor and it’s moist. I can vape at 50watts. I keep it at 27watts and the wape is great. It was a bit tricky to get this tank wicked just right but it was worth it.

I just got the SS 316L 24g today and wrapped up a 8/7 3mm spaced coil. Came in at .35 ohms. I did put long legs on it and got it close to the top. Used a third of a KDG pad, Scottish roll. Thinned out about 30% of the ends and the ends are touching and just barely spread out on the floor of the deck.

Just like @MidwestGuy I am getting perfect moist hits at 35 Watts.

Hi everyone! I’m joining in late to the party. Hangs head in shame lol!
I canceled my original order from Everzon & reordered last week from Gearbest, two Gunmetal’s on the way. Price was fantastic.
Can’t wait as all my friends are here & loving the Zeus ;)

Better late than never heart. If it’s any consolation. I’m gonna be even later since mine hasn’t even made it out of China yet. I should have cancelled mine and reordered. Oh well maybe by New Years.

Now where are those single 18650 DNA75C mods....

*wanders off muttering and looking at stuff*

JAC Vapour Series B or the VaporShark SwitchBox ... not "C" but still very awesome mods customizable by the versatile Escribe software suite. :D

ETA: I'm on my second SwitchBox ... wore the fire button out on the last one after over a year of daily use. Held up like a champ and finish still looks amazing (rubberized paint).

I haven't tried SS316L 24Ga in these yet, just 26Ga ... pretty good? I might try that next ...

It's great Heart, think you will enjoy it. I have the GM and it is very handsome. The brushed look is very attractive up close. I've had the silver out and about in my purse/pocket and finish is holding up well.
so, compared to your Nanos? Mine hasn't arrived yet, it must of been put on the slow boat:grr:

I love 24ga wire. It’s sturdy so makes it easy to wick. Great for low ohm builds. Enough surface area for high wattage Vaping.
I have almost full spool of SS 26, 28ga wire that I used to make twisted wire out of it. But that was too much work and time consuming, so I went back to 24ga.

Where you been? Have missed you.
Hate the Zeus screws so haven't played much with it. Ordered some grubs. Needs another coil. Still a great rta. Best smoothest af of any tank I've used or tried. Think with the right build flavor will match or exceed Nano. Will definitely stay in rotation along side Nanos. Good looking and you could put just about any coil your heart desires in it and it can keep up. I've had no wicking issues, but some have. I'm enjoying it even with a sub par coil installed. Would recommend in a NY minute.

OK... loving the 24Ga! TC, ~3.1MM 8 wrap (.41ohm) with a DNA75 using the default DNA75 SS316L TFR settings. 26Ga with a high coil was awesome, 24Ga is even better on flavor with the higher "heat flux" ... a little popping at initial fill, but smoothed out very nicely. I typically take long 6-8 second draws with TC, it's absolutely fantastic. Saturated, cloudy, flavorful vape.

Have already given those more of a look than is polite in decent company lol current daily driver is a lostvape skar but I think it would be better suited to backup / home duties (I'm now thinking of using 2x of the Zeus for home use and the other 2 for my ADV / work use...)

Thanks @Letitia ! I’m sure I will love it as I read all your posts raving about it ;)
I really wanted the Black but the GM was soooo cheap. :D
Purse approved :hubba: thanks!
