Gus ESTIA : Unleash the Power√

[qorax]

A shout out well deserved....

I cant take all the credit for the video... K-rad did the editing, and he was there behind the camera (beer in hand) keeping my head straight. lol

all good fun!

People need more Genisis in their lives, so i may end up doing a tutorial on that... maybe....

or SS Estia build!

One with that mesh build will be nice

@BuzzKilla

What gauge, diameter, wraps and ohms have you found to be ideal?

I may do a pictorial.... easier for me given the amount of time a proper video would take......

@BuzzKilla
What gauge, diameter, wraps and ohms have you found to be ideal?

i like 7~8 wraps of 30 ga. works well.
i do my wraps on a 2mm mandrel (for reference)

i like to stay in the 0.6 ~0.8 ohm range.... but i like a hot vape, as im down to 3mg.
YMMV

 

[sedge]

I did a 6/7 wrap 2mm ID of 28g. Came out to 0.45 . Its smooth but heats up slowly. I may try a higher gauge or a smaller dia.

 

[BuzzKilla]

Thinner wire will get you up to temp
A lot faster, I personally dislike coils that take too long to heat up... I like instant vape.

 

[BuzzKilla]

And this is why you lock your mod, when rebuilding your estia.... :'(

 

[sedge]

It actually looks like the finger is cut off completely because of the shadow at the knuckle. Freaked me out a bit. I need a vape. Lol.

 

[BuzzKilla]

HA!.... for some reason, GooglePhotos decided to "auto enhance" the image....

#nofilter

but yeah, the photo doesnt look that bad, but its about a 2mm deep gouge. Just enough to make me completely useless in AutoCAD....

 

[dice57]

Well Damn, think I'm in love!!! now this looks like something that will Kick some Serious Vape Asssss, or something like that.

 

[dice57]

Damn, still processing, these Greek guys seem to be a tad slower than the Austrians, hmm.

 

[eratikmind]

Damn you, Q! I took a little break from these boards and now I see this.

 

[dice57]

I can't blame Q this time, I blame suspectK. He's the dirty scoundrel that brought my attention to this rba, but then, suspect that suspectK found it from Q, but really, that's besides the point, or something like that., and then sedge was oh so helpful with posting pic, everyone is helpful around these parts

 

[suspectK]

Yeah...q has caused a lot of domestic issues with me..but it's only the best. Very clear, simple, and thorough thread OPs..great pictures by him and most everyone involved with the threads.

Vertical builds are cake with this...I couldn't figure out how to wick them properly, and get the chimney on with a kayfun. The hardest part about it is that you don't have access to the back, but no biggie..kinda works out to have one weird leg, sort of like a magma..but my friend keeps his pinned down on the airhole, so the bottom of the coil is the negative contact.

Gotta record something really quick...it sounds great, vibrating my skull, but the question is, is it music, or precursor to brain damage?

Estia Kiss Tanks√

 

[dice57]

Yeah, have the Magma Vertical, will have to post my Braided boyscout wicking/knot tying trick.

Estia looks purrfect for verts. I do the iV-twin build on the Russian, push Russie at 75 watts no problem with the iV-twin. And wicking is a breeze, very forgiving.

Yeah, will probably use 26 gauge on Estia, anyone know what size the intakes are under the coils?? Like matching the coil id with the air intake diameter. Looking forward to this one, hmm, now what wand will choose Estia??? After all, the Wand chooses the vaper, but the rba, claims the wand, or something like that. hmm, will see how she likes dragons Yeah, still processing though. hmm,

What's the warrior? Is it a deeper cut lord, like the summer version kiss is to ours?

 

[qorax]

Here's the differences:

Kiss Summer / Dark Knight ............. = 3D engraved on a Polished base metal
Kiss-QE / White Knight / Gus Lord .... = 2D engraved on a Matte base metal

 

[dice57]

Na, the warrior is a big bore V-twin Sports Cruiser.!!!! Have mine bored out to 108 c.i. High dome 12:1 hc pistons, Patrick racing's Big Air Kit, and a Muzzy's 2 into 1 exhaust. Have 2" pull back risers, Forward controls with Kyeriakian minin floor boards, breakaway throttle lock, and Mustang seat with riders Backrest. Have both the Yamha Sports and chin farings, and some badazz bar end mirros. 95 hp to the rear wheel with 119 ft. lb's of torque, 0-60 in three seconds, oh and a tribal flame plasma blue tank with indigo fenders. Talk about a V-twin cruiser made for the tail of the dragon.!!! Hope to ride that before I can't.

Damn, posted on the wrong forum again, way past my bed time.

 

[BuzzKilla]

I'll stick to the original LORD version.....

now if only i didnt have to completely destroy the switch to make it work again (dont ask... long story)

 

[eratikmind]

Hahaha . . . This thread may cost me some of my hard earned retirement dollars. Gotta love everything that I see. Beautiful looking pieces, everyone.
