Yep, I got your email and I'm glad it turned out it wasn't Super-T who the problem was with
what you say is true but there is a difference the air coming out of his side holes is more direct and is hitting the coil. The air coming from your set up at right angles hits the ledge and disperses at 360 degrees around the inside of the channel, and it is because of this only a small portion of concentrated air is reaching the coil the rest is wasted as it is dispersed around the inside chamber by the channel groove. So although at first sight they appear to do the same thing they both have different attributes.
This might be true if air is pushed into the atty, but when you vape, air is being vacuumed (pulled) into the atty. This has a different effect.
Hopefully this ongoing discussion is something I will be able to judge for myself and voice my own opinion when the 26xxx series integrated Strata is released.
My two cents....Since I have so many Stratas, I went ahead and drilled out one of them to see if there are any differences in performance versus the stock setup. Conclusion: There is no difference; they vape the exact same! I've been happy with my Stratas ever since I got em, and everyone that has tried mine has fallen in love with it too. It still might not be the perfect RDA for everyone, but the Strata suits me just fine. If anyone in NorCal wants to try mine out, just gimme a buzz and I'll meet you at a shop.
For single coil setups, an airhole hitting the coil directly makes a much better vape than 4 airholes coming from every direction. I tried every single atty top cap I have to see which ones fit on the strata, here is one for the satin, works very good. But even better would be an optional official super-t topcap that has a direct airhole beside the coil (for single coil setups) that lines up perfectly when screwed on.
edit: but I'm guessing the base would be required to ensure the airholes line up when screwed in, so a normal topcap with oring would also be good if the screw on isn't possible without sending back the base.

Enjoying this morning's build on my Strata... Dual coils of twisted 28ga, 5/6 wraps on 1/16" drill bit. .5ohm total resistance. Wicked with hemp fiber.
Flavor is almost too much on this one!

Hi RPadTV,
Setup looks good
That's 28-gauge at about 0.7 ohms. I'm not a big cloud guy, so I'm satisfied with the clouds I'm getting. The flavor is fantastic and the build quality is excellent.
Finally found my perfect, go to Strata build. I'd recently been using my KFLs or my Nucleus more than the Strata...until now.
I wrapped a piece of 26g kanthal around the center post (while not on the base) I then wrapped two 11 wrap coils around a thick paper clip. I have them resting on loosely packed cotton, with the negative ends higher than the center. I soak the wicks, and drip some extra into the empty part of the well.
It works well on any air setting, and when you find the sweet spot it's phenomenal.
