So if I do not want to wait til I can get another premade wire I can buy Bead Landing 28 Gauge silver wire at Micheals and I have 32G A Kanthal. Do I just solder the 2 together to make it look like the wire that was included with the Penelope?
You wrap them together, its a 3 piece combo, no soldering required. Its really simple. There are a couple good videos on how to do it I will see what I can find.

Can i fix the one that broke this way or is it not going to be long enough? Is the 32 Guage the correct guage?

Karla, you can use any gauge you want. Obviously, different gauge wire will mean different length coils (depending on the resistance you want). 32ga kanthal will work just fine ;-)

And yes you can fix the pre-made wire by twisting together like in the videos, but it will shorten your resistance wire section so will lower your coil's resistance. Just try to keep the twisted portion as small as possible to minimize the difference



Got my Pene today :thumbs: Haven't had a chance to build it up, yet, just got home from dinner with the fam, will get to it soon

I got some 36 and 34 AWG wire but I prefer higher resistance coils.

The stock coil came out at 1.7/1.8 resistance according to multimeter and Provari.

If you like 2.8-3.0 ohm resistance go for the higher AWG wire...like 36. Just depends on what you like but there is some room for adjustment as people are making coils from wire anywhere between 1.25 inches and 2.0 inches in the Oddy. Should be the same for Penny even though the cup is slightly smaller.

The new ody base-GGTS is what you need if you want the full benefit of the air control on the GGTS

edit: with the Ody not the UFS

Oh, yeah, I guess I neglected to mention Ody, but that's what I was referring to. So, trying to visualize, is that piece all that's needed? Does it, essentially, serve like the lower tank piece of the UFS?

Hey there all you new Penelope owners. I got a couple quick questions.

1. You fill this thing by unscrewing the top cap and putting the juice in between the mouth piece and the body of Pene right? So not directly in the mouthpiece?

2 Assuming I did #1 correct, is this supposed to be very gurgly or no gurgle. I cant tell if its full or what the deal is.

3 If I turn the mouthpiece to the right like I was tightening down something would that be restricting juice flow or allowing more juice flow. Should I not have it all the way in either direction?

Im using a Provari at the moment if that matters any.

1. Yea you put the juice between the body and mouth piece. I was using thick juice so I let it run down the side(on the outside of course)mouthpiece into the tank.

2&3. So no there really shouldn't be a gurgle. Basically when filling you want to turn the juice control all the way closed(Clockwise) and then fill and screw the top on slowly to prevent pressure build up and flooding. IF you have gurgling keep juice control closed until gurgle goes away. Then open slowly until you get your desired vape. I think im about 1 full turn open, maybe a little more and it's wicking the thick VG stuff quite well with no gurgle.

1 - yes, fill to the side of the mouthpiece

2 - it's full when the juice level is about even with the little tabs on the mouthpiece. Shouldn't be gurgly, but this can happen when you screw on the top cap. Just close off your juice control and either vape it out or blow it out

3 - yes, turn it to the right (clockwise) to close down the juice control. Turn it left to open it up.

Nope, the PV it's on doesn't matter in any of that ;-)
