It blinks in the event of low voltage or low resistance. It probably needs charged. Or your coil is shorted.

Why all the interest in rebuild-ables ?

I guess I can understand as a hobbyist, but most of us I would imagine, hope that Kangar and other Companies make a product that we will like as is

Do they not see what people want that requires us to manually change their product ?
If there is an improvement that can be made -wold be great for the manu to listen and perform as such

Hopefully as vaping continues to take off they will make products that give the masses what they want and pay attention to forums and such, or newer companies will see the demand and create customer tanks !

The problem is they are so inconsistent. Even purchasing genuine Kanger heads, sometimes you get a good coil head, sometimes you don't.
If you want proof, go ahead and open up 3 different heads, you'll see some with huge wads of flavor wicks and some with almost none. If they were all the same then you wouldn't see so many posts on this forum referring to burnt hits / flooding.

Also, if you build them yourself, you can build them to your own preferences.

Saying that, I agree with you. Why should we have to modify a product that we just purchased to make it work as expected? - but the sad fact is, we, as vapers, do have to modify most products we buy to get a consistently good vape.

I purchased the original pro-tank back in the day, and I was so disappointed with it. Only once I started rebuilding did I understand the issues with it and finally made it usable.

That's a little broad. What scenario are you referring to?

It was meant to be a broad sweeping statement.

I thought I was clear. If you are using the built in protection on a battery to tell you if you have a short, you are taking unnecessary risks.

Buy a multimeter, they cost less than $10.

I tried 8 wrap 30g and got juice spitting in my mouth. Back to 7 wrap 30g @ 4v

Are you putting a flavor wick on top of the coil?

I'm waiting on my vamo v5, its on a slow boat from china, stuck in LA. No way to test ohms yet.
Riptrippers micro coil wont work on a ego c twist, he says it doesn't have the power.

I'd like to find a way to build heads for this twist but all I see is coil tutorials for vv/ww micro coils/nanocoils. . Oh well, might have to stick with the kanger heads for the twist, but when I get my vamo I can make hotter coils.

I'd have to disagree with that.....I've been doing micro's on my Smoov twist with 1/16"drill bit, 28 ga Kanthal, 9'is wraps contact coil @1.7-2.0 ohm coils for 2 months on my Kanger mini's.....works like a champ...do a search and see all the posts on this it is easy and effective

1.7-2.0 ohm with 28g kanthal? I do 12 wraps on a mini screwdriver and get around 1.3-1.4 ohm.
