So I used 32g Kanthal and the braided wick that was included with the Igo-W. I'm going to go buy some organic cotton later today but didn't have any on hand and really wanted to get started. My intention was to do 12 wraps micro coil but I realized after starting that my needle nose pliers are in the car (which my wife took to work) so I wasn't able to make the coils touch. I also don't have the holes drilled out so the draw is really tight. The coils reading 2.53 ohms now after fiddling with it although it started at 2.2 and my mvp v2 reads it at 2.4.
My issue is limited vapor production and some fairly harsh lung hits. It does seem to have mellowed out a bit in that regard but getting a decent pull vapor wise has been really difficult, even with the mvp 2 maxed at 5 volts.
I'm assuming my issues are 3 fold. 1. The air holes are too small 2. I need to heat and then pinch the coils so they are touching and 3. My wick is too thin, meaning after I threaded it there was a lot of free space within the coil, the wick doesn't fill the "tube" of the coil.
Does this sound about right? I'm also wanting to try around 1.5 ohms, not positive the mvp will fire it but I've heard it can, if not then 1.8 will certainly fire since that is what my Aspire ET-S BDC is at.
Sorry for the long post hopefully I explained things adequately, appreciate any advice yall can offer me. Thanks
For some reason the whichever pic was on top wouldn't work properly so I had to put it on here twice in order to have a clickable version.
