Hello all! Finally got a pic of my faux alien build!
Faux because after more research I found out Aliens are supposed to be dual core (yes/no) with an unwrapped coil for a wrap creating a wavey look! This is more of a flat core clapton! So I'm a little disappointed that it isn't as advertised! But that's where the disappointment ends! OMG THE FLAVOR, THE CLOUDS! This is my first build with other than plain wire so I have nothing to compare it to but that! This build is a 4wrap 2.5id dual running at .15 OHMs! It will run from 45w to probably 100w but 60w is my everyday low consumption setting while 80w is my flavor chasing, cloud chucking, tank draining, batt draining setting to run! With the AFC 1/2 open for 60w and WFO for 80w! This is my favorite build to date!
DO NOT BUILD AS HIGH OFF THE AIRFLOW AS SHOWN! BY THE TIME YOU'RE DONE WITH YOUR TANK YOUR juice WILL LOOK LIKE COFFEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As @suprtrkr said it would! Adjusted those coils to just above the AF and voila no more cooking!
Never will I doubt you again @suprtrkr! You are a vaping god! well gotta go vape this beast some more!

I think I've seen those coils called caterpillar tracks I think
My progression: Njoy, Green Smoke, Vivi Nova, Evod/ProTank, KFL+/R91, Nautilus
Always used MtL and thought I liked it but was never satisfied
I knew things were getting better once I got used to DTL on a Subtank but 23W was still weak
Arctic was a little better at 45W but airflow/juiceflow was still not there yet
I found my happy place at 65W-80W on a Velocity with dual 24g A1 @ .34Ω 3mm ID
Same 80W happy place with Crown tanks with .25Ω without having to drip
Same 80W happy place with MT with dual 28x2/32 fused Clapton .22Ω 2.5mm ID
note - Claptons take an extra moment to ramp up but they also hold heat longer and I chain vape so I ramp it and hit it a few times letting it cool a few moments between hits or I just ramp it, hit it and leave it necessitating a ramp next time I hit it. Mildly annoying but very do-able. #firstworldproblems
200W IPV3VR, 120W Boxer Mods, 120W Renegade X, 200W RX200, all @ 80W
I couldn't care less about TC because 80W waxes my toboggan
I couldn't care less about more air flow because my Velocity, Crown & MT are just right
I tried building for lower watts to conserve juice and better batt life but 80W makes me happy
I DIY so $20 a liter is cheap enough to not worry about juice consumption
I tried higher W but it's too hot, too spitty, too ...much
More juice capacity at the same performance level would be a win.
Now, who has a VCMT?
Please tell us how it compares to out beloved MT.

My game is tomorrow, but I'm sure I'll watch playoff games, too. And my team (Ohio State) is playing my dad's team (Notre Dame). He is beyond ...... because he hates OSU. He already blamed me that they're playing each other as if I'm on the selection committee
I have a dual 26g SS build in one of my Bellus, and I like it a lot.
nah, I told him I wanted to leave early and said cool
Excellent!
And Roxy: good luck tomorrow!
Addendum: It will do 120w but the flavor starts to get a little burnt!Hello all! Finally got a pic of my faux alien build!

I just noticed I crossed the threads on the top cap of the chimney on my mt
any ideas, I can't get it unscrewed

Grab it with a latex gloves, it should grip it good and let you get it off

So I did the dumb thing, put it on the table and applied downward force it worked, the threads are correctly lined up but......
now i can't separate the two.....oh well
Update, works like a champ

In Steam Engine, on the "Coil Wrapping" page-- that's the one where it usually opens up-- and in the top left column "Material and Profile" the selection on the right that usually displays "Round," if you click that dropdown there is a choice for "Twisted/Parallel". Setting that will open two lower dialog boxes: Twist pitch is the distance between the twists: measure 10 twists with a ruler and divide by 10 for the answer for twisted wires; set 0 for parallel. And "Number of Strands" should be obvious
The far right tab, "Wire Wizard," lets you design Claptons, etc. Not as easy to use as the coil wrapping page, but good data.

I like to use the latex jar openers from the grocery store. For thin parts wrapping a rubber band around the cap works.
A screw together true 2 piece!
A lot of people don't know about that, my grandpa showed me all that stuff when I was little

Guys, I'm on my 4th refill (no leaking at all) and I've still got a funky taste from the Rta. I know, I wicked it good, no dry hiys or leaking, just a weird taste. It taste no where near as good as my dripper.
