O.K.. Here is an update...

Envision.. Crazy woman.. Naked.. Kitchen.. Cats..

I know I am supposed to think 'out of the box' here. But, for my first try, I thought I would stay 'in the box', and see what people were .....ing about. So, I did my normal microcoil (24g Kanthal, 3/32" diameter, 8 wraps), with a goal of .6 ohms. I mounted her horizontal, at deck level. I threaded her with my rolled cotton. When metered, she came out at .5 ohms.

First try, and not bad. Taste: I taste my coffee more than I ever did before. Clouds: Not bad. Could I use more? Sure. Therefore, my next build, I will change it up a bit. Throat Hit: It hits. I wish I had some lower nic level on hand to try out.

So, because I did not go 'out of the box' on my first build, I expected failure. However, it was not. She is tasting pretty good, so I think I will vape her a while, before I change her up.

Since I don't go out much, I tend to do most things naked.

People who know me, know to call before they come. I do not answer my door, unless I am expecting someone. When the jehovah's witnesses get too pushy, and won't stop, I answer. Most of them, don't come back. :)

That's hysterical! I need to try that next time they come by. I've tried being nice. I've tried telling them I was a (insert religion here) and I've tried being mean. That's not in my character so they saw though that.

Now a naked guy answering the door? That just might work!

Notice I stated "Most don't come back.". Some of the men, do come back. :)

Good to hear, did you use any lube on the threads first to screw them on? We're going thru them now and finding some tight ones, but a dab of noalox is allowing us to get them all on.

Hi David,
Sorted now with a bit of lube ;)
Much appreciated
It's amazing what a bit of lube can do
Thank you David, pAth ;)

Just a little update. Envision this..... I am attempting my first ELA Strata build. In my kitchen. Naked. The cats are all over my stuff, saying 'What's up Mom?'. I should vid and post for 'comic relief'. :)

BTW: I rarely wear clothes at home. Much to my Mother's horror, I was born a nudist at heart

Sorry

I am still vaping my traditional coil build. I am liking the flavor! I am still not ready to go 'out of the box'. For my next step, I want to do dual traditional coils. If my normal build is (24g Kanthal, 3/32" diameter, 8 wraps) resulting in .6ish ohms, do I need two 4 wrap coils? I forget how it works. :)

Today was a bad coil day...got the strata, tried am opinion...got it to work, but wasn't happy, so I proceeded to spend the next 4 hours trying different coils...as you can tell from the opening statement, nothing was satisfactory. I've given up for tonight, but not on the strata...it looks amazing on an ela..:(

If your target resistance is .6 ohms you will need two 1.2 ohm coils. Dual coil means that your resistance for each coil will be cut in half.

Target || What you should install
.5 ohms = Two 1 ohm coils
.6 ohms = Two 1.2 ohm coils
1 ohm = Two 2 ohm coils
etc.

Thanks! Damn... That's a lot of coil to fit in there. I guess I won't be mounting them horizontal. Hmm..
