[QUOTE="bombastinator, post: 23655307, member: 43994"] Wire works till it doesn’t. This can be anywhere from a year to one wick, depending on how fragile it is. Sometimes even less if you short it. (Metal can melt) this is an advantage coil cartridges and pods have. Because they always throw out the wire they can use coil designs that would be incredibly difficult for RDAs and RTAs to use. This made them start out worse than simple coils but than catch up. These days you pretty much need a well done fused Clapton to match a coil cartridge. They used to just beat them. With a stick. There are exceptions. a steamcrave aromamizer plus can do it with simple coils. It’s a monster though, and it can leak if you don’t wick it right, and close the ring when you open the tank to preserve the vacuum. There may be others. This is why I liked that Russian bellus thing. It would do it too and it’s actually smaller than most cartridge coil CTAs It’s a massive PITA to wick though, and totally different from more standard RTAs. Enough that the thing just died. No one even cloned it. [/QUOTE]
