Well I've got one rolled up.. Not tooo pretty but not tooo shabby either.

Wish I could get a good pic right now (will try) but macro doesn't work as well as it used to.

It's a tiny strip of mesh, rolled over paperclip and oxidized it but decided to elminate shorts on the bottom so I spun a wrap of cotton around it to help with the coil shorts or ground shorts in the cup. Up vertical near between the posts and no visible hotspots even on legs.

It's working well, hits as good as the silica I had done in the first I have running but definitely more TH and vapor at times. Saturated the wick and figured her up..

Cheers,
~Icky

[Edit] Pics (found my cable and not too bad but not the best camera)

Please ignore the bad photography, I worked on this 45 mins getting the right size mesh (which after 3 failed I didn't measure (Doh! will re-do)), dropping things left and right due to fat fingers and being 2am.. Well.. :)

IGO.L.jpeg.jpg

So i just saw all the threads on the Igo L the other day and ordered one... I typically use my two DID's and a ZAP. I got the Igo set up rather easily and wanted to solely use mesh which I am obviously prety comfortable with. It wicks better than I thought and I can use up all the juice I dripped, redrip a different flavor and not taste the first... Rather easy... A little tougher to set up than I thought because of the odd angle.
The one issue I am having is I seem to get a very strong throat hit and not a ton of vapor... When hitting it with cap off, everything looks good, no hotspots, juice bubbling evenly but when I line the air hole up it doesnt seem like the airflow is quite right. Ive tried putting it in front of the rightmost coil, the leftmost, and in the middle... Good flavor, strong throat hit, So So vapor... Anyone have ideas?

I've appreciated all the feedback, its what made me decide to get this... If I could solve this issue, I could see this being my go- to...


Just realized no one has posted here in a while.. Will put in the other Igo L thread.
