I just made another one at 1.5 ohms. 6 wraps. It's a little better but still not what I think the vapor should be. I think it's 2 mm.



Hey thanks! It was low and getting too hot so I rebuilt another one at 1.5 ohms. A little better. First was 5 wraps and the second 6 wraps. I only have one wick in the well and the other sticking up like in iknowaghost's tutorial. Vapor still isn't what I expect. I think I need to make the coil go in on a diagonal instead of all on one side of the posts. It's hard to get the wick in the well with it all being on one side. Any tips?

What is the ideal ohms and how many wraps should I be doing? It's also making me cough. The second coil is better though.

CONGRATS ON TWO MONTHS!!!! That's awesome!!!

Add another strand of silica RJ. Are you wrapping just one? I tuck the wicks in the well before connecting the wires on the post. Either way it is rather tedious. And I don't mess with sticking one end up in the air. Just stuff both ends in the well.

I added another strand and got 2.1 ohms this time. I need to go back and stuff the other end in the well...although I'm running out of room in there. Maybe it'll be easier since they are wet now. Vapor is better but still doesn't begin to match my Vivis or attys. I'll fiddle with it more tomorrow...but right now I prefer my Vivis. And it still makes me cough. Maybe cotton wicks would be better. It also seems to have a hard draw and has since I bought it. But I'm three for three and no shorts or hot spots!! :2cool:

Good evening everyone...just got home it's been a long but fun day. RJ when I'm setting up my RBA's I try to get 1.8 - 2.1 but still learning a lot and some rebuilds are better than others. I wouldn't last long in the poker game...I'm not very good and have a real problem hiding when I get good cards:laugh:

1.2 might be a little low if you like a cooler vape, as it will certainly heat up quicker the lower ohms you have. Grats on your first build on it, RJ!!!

BTW....2 months analog free today!!!

Congrats on the milestone Chimps!!!

Three for three, wish I could get those kind of odds. I'm more like one outta three. ;)

I'm not a very good card player either.

You got to know when hold 'em, know when to fold 'em. Know when to walk away, know when to run....
