Vapdivrr I have done my plan I told you years ago about cutting down. I now from 30mg am down to 3mg. I no longer have a th though. Wish you luck my friend. I will tell you that I love direct lung though. Boreas is on the way now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe someday I will quit vaping too......but I love it so much.
Edit and its good to see you up here, brings back good memories of Florida for me...miss it.
Wow that's great that your down to 3mg! I once tried lowering to 12 mg and couldn't because of the TH , so I have remained where I started. Common sense tells me that it has to be better to vape lower nic but I just need that TH. I too probably LI more then mtl and when I occasionally vape one of my old tanks, I just cannot believe how tight the draw were back then. Let me know what you think of roxys tank, I heard it was pretty good.

Yeah I am super curious about the SS cCells! Hopefully we both get our grubby lil paws on some soon! :)
I did and I hope I got a bad coil. 1st they were gold and should have been silver so something funny there. They did say ss and .5 and .8 ohms so.....@nd it was rated for 30-65w and after an hour of break in if I went above 37w all I got was dry hits. They need to do something cause those are not gonna fly.

Okay, so I mixed up a batch of 30pg/70vg 25mg nic and built a 1.25Ω dual coil setup with rayon in the Silver Play V2 (apparently the Orchid tank is cracked). At 25W there was DEFINITE TH! Coughed up a lung for a few minutes then tried it a couple more times. Then I loaded up a 0.9Ω Kanthal cCell in the Target with the same juice. 25W was a little weak because it's an older coil (2-3 weeks), so I bumped the wattage up to 35W. Still a decent TH to me, but not quite as much as was on the rayon/kanthal build. So, I guess I'd say that you'll still get some pretty decent TH with the cCells, but it will be a little smoother than it is with rayon.

I brought both setups with me to work today, so if there's anything else that you'd like me to try, just ask. I'm planning on just vaping the tank full that is in the Target, but I'll probably dump the SP after we're done testing. ;)

One of the guys here at work is planning on ordering a Gemini tank that comes with a couple of SS cCells... he promised to let me try one of them if/when he gets it. :)

You are most welcome. It was a fun little experiment and was interesting to see that going back up that high in nicotine is honestly too much for me at this point. I've been at 5mg for about a year now after starting out at 36mg and staying there for many years. It's been a long time since I've felt that "nic buzz"! LOL

Well shoot. So letting it sit overnight didn't help, huh. I hope it was just a bad coil, too. I got a SS coil with the Simba tank and I was amazed at how well it worked in TC. I had all but given up on TC before that! I love you can switch between VW and Tc with SS. I love the kanthal cCell, though, so if they can't get SS right I am okay with just sticking with those. For now, anyway. :D

So, I got my Gemini tank last week and I love it! It's so nice having a top fill tank that runs cCells. The SS cCell is awesome. It has all the flavor and vapor as the regular cCells do. I switched out the drip tip on it because I got a custom tip I wanted to use for it, but it comes with 2 different tips and an adapter. I have had ZERO leaking with this tank, and it never gets hot. It doesn't even get warm, really, and that's with chain vaping. It's exactly what I was hoping it would be. Sinter on!! :D

Awesome! I think it's been asked, but do the SS cCells work on the Target mod?

Yes it does. I just tried it and it works beautifully. :) The kanthal head and the SS one look very similar. The one on the left is the kanthal head and the one on the right with the square hole is the SS one. I wish they had used different colored O rings for the SS, but they you can definitely tell the difference.

Ugh, somehow this got lost and I'm just now finding my way back to it. That's awesome! Now I need to pick up some SS cCells! Last time I checked, FT didn't have them, so I'll have to look elsewhere. Thanks, Cool! As always, You Rock!

Awesome! Bookmarked the lniks for future use. ;) I'll probably start placing some orders in the next week or two. Main thing I want to pick up is more nic, but gonna be grabbing a few new rebuildables and a bunch of cCells. Dunno where these deeming regs are gonna land, but I absolutely do not want to find myself without my sintered ceramic goodness!

    And from the picture it looks like I can get the white with orange buttons, now I definitely have to find some room in my vape budget. Gonna start calling you Brother Enabler.

    Brother Enabler? LOL! Yeah... that's probably not too far off... ;)
    Not sure about the white with orange buttons. The pic that Evan posted shows white/orange, but HG's website shows the white with black buttons, if you look at the pic of just the mod... :confused:
