LOL more like talking with the guests and taking a series of phone calls. everything happens at once :laugh:

But so far it's door #1 however i'm not smiling yet. It usually takes a few puffs. i've taken a lot more than normal for it to set into dry hits though. its not the greatest wick for sure either way. no crack, pop...kinda smooth, lingering on the sound of a dry hit but that could be psychological too. Vapors good, not as great as i've seen it. same with flavor. then again i've been vaping this flavor for a bit so may be desensitized to it ATM. also not my favorite flavor so it wouldn't exactly make my eyes water but it's good. *vape vape*

Keep vaping it dude. They dont always crackle and pop. I wouldnt worry so much as to what its doing or not doing, just how good it tastes :vapor: If youre not getting burnt hits then we've made progress

gotcha and i correct myself...not NO pop and crackle just few and far between ;)

I think I'm comfortable saying at this point that it's good to go...but watch as soon as I say that...LOL

If that puppy is wicked right, you should be able to hit 4.2 volts without a problem. I like the fact that you took the bump and vape approach. This way, if you push the limit and the flavor starts to go away. you can always bump back a bit.

yeah I've been taking this approach since my first bout with dry hits. I'll try bumping it up slowly soon. bout to ha an influx of visitors from a historical tour...can't vape out the office too much LOL :D

You guys are great! I'm reading this thread - laughing - and rooting for sloth...

...and thinking - I've had *extremely* good luck...

no drill bits - I use a little 2mm screwdriver (measured it in one of those thingies with the holes) It's easy to wind my wire and push gently against the end of the screwdriver handle.

I keep the coil in the screwdriver when I mount it - when it's lined up where I want it and screwed down tight I twist/bend the extra wire until it breaks. Doing it this way hasn't left any wire poking out from the screws.

I use the screwdriver to *gently* pull up on the coil and leave a bit of room over the base. (mine sit a little lower than the pic sloth posted)

I also mount my coil, check the ohms - then fire it, get it red hot - release the fire button - and then gently pinch the coils together with tweezers. I do that a couple of times.

I fire it several times to make sure it heats evenly from the inside of the coil out and there are no overlapping coils.

I am also officially casting my vote for Sterile Rolled Cotton for my wick. I did a side by side with organic cotton ball and the Sterile Rolled Cotton tastes perfect right from the start. It's also sooo easy to work with, nice long fibers - it just works for me.

Go sloth... go... :toast: :thumb: :thumbs:

4.0 is probably too high

that's my guess with this build. why do you think I was doing 4 before with no issues? granted it was Wakonda vs PBC so different liquid? coil is 1.6 now vs 1.7 then

i was even doing 4.5 on Wakonda chain vaping like a bat outta hades with a nic fit LOL

Who knows dude. The ohms of the coil, they way they are wrapped etc all plays a part in it. PBC will burn at higher volts/wattage
