I can get the ohms right, it's just the building part and all the hotspots. Somehow I always end up getting them no matter how careful I am when setting up my coils.

Ahhh, sorry I missed something. You were talking about a genesis. Rebuilding a silica dripper is about a million times easier. No hot spots on silica and the coils can be totally sloppy and you're still fine. That being said, the room you have to work with in the ceramic that you need for a Killer is quite small, so you've got to be fairly neat and tidy with your coils, but its not hard.
The hardest part about rebuilding the Killer is joining the non resistant wire and resistant wire together. There's multiple ways to do it, you just need to practice and its not that bad. There's even super easy ways like 1mm silver jewelry crimp beads for joining wire. I just twist them, took me about 15 coils to get pretty good at it. Well good enough for my purposes anyhow.
Off topic ; as for a genesis, I guess I've been lucky but I've always had nearly no issues setting mine up. Granted I'm only on my 5th? coil I think. A 6 wrap of 28 gauge on an un-oxidized wick and its pretty bad ..., hits like a train.
I too am very interested to hear about your experience after you get the loose o-rings (I was wondering if they might offer something like this). I have lots of 19mm IBTanked tubes and caps, but the o-rings fit super tight. I was eyeing the new 22mm tanks, but also didn't think they would be viable with the Killer (since I want to use juice control and fill from the bottom like I do my AMP Tank).
I just ordered my Killer, and I have an old DCT that I set up with SS caps in anticipation. Although it looks nice, the caps spin real well once lubed, and I've seen it used in a video, I've used nothing but glass for a while and would rather not go back to polypropylene (just my preference).
Well I have great news regarding the 22mm IBTanked. I posted a picture of it on the Natural on the previous page, its a perfect fit and look. Also, since the caps are so thin, it maximizes the amount of juice the tank holds, which is quite a lot.
This morning, after letting it set overnight, I wasn't able to twist the adapter, but after sliding the tank up and down the Killer once, it was then loose enough to twist the juice control very easily. This is a win.
Edit: the 22's have their spare o rings, but aren't labeled for tight or loose. I used the ones that came installed on it. The inner rings feel a bit loose than on the 19's I have, and the outer rings are just loose enough to get the cap off for refilling easily enough.

Very cool - thanks for the update. Looks like I'll be ordering another OCD tank today.
I am also using the IBTanked 22mm and if I feel the need to adjust feed control, I just give the tank a twist and it loosens right up...works great !
Hmm, I'm planning on having a custom 22mm tank made to be exactly the right height give or take a mm or so and I won't be able to slide it up or down really.
Hey everyone. I ordered mine but I think i made a HUGE ERROR. I wanted to ask the group. Did they ship it to the correct address you used for PayPal or the one you put it on their website ? Reason I ask is because I accidentally but on the greek vapes website the state as AA Armed Forces Europe when I meant to put California. All of the other info is correct.
When I recieved my order confirmation it read the correct address that is verified on my pay pal account

The same thing happened to me, instead of Florida it said AA ARmed Forces Europe, nevertheless the order confirmation read my address and zip code correctly but didnt specified state, which I though it was good, and it was because the package arrived to West Palm Beach, FL today, I am expecting it to be delivered today in the afternoon. So I wouldnt worry to much about it if the zip code is correct.
I did the same thing as well. I thought it was user error but since it happened to all of you as well it might be something wrong on their end? At any rate, my package made it to WI no problem despite the state being listed as AA armed forces Europe on the envelope.

I don't feel so dumb now - I did it too. I saw the problem in time and they removed "AA Armed Forces Europe" but neglected to include my state. I'm hoping that once it reaches the States that USPS will realize that the listed city conforms to the ZIP code and there won't be much delay.
Ok I am freaking out a little bit less then. At least I wasn't the only one and it appears you folks are receiving your packages. I have 2 packages coming so I thought I lost both. So it appears they are shipping to the inputted info on the website not the verified PayPal addy ?
That's awesome. If you don't mind when did you get your ship confirmation ? I was trying to approximate delivery times.
Yeah - Greek-Vapes shipped to the address that I entered in my profile on their site (and the order's shipping address was not updated prior to shipping after I updated the address in my profile) and NOT my PayPal address.
I've updated mine as well but both of my packages already shipped. Looks like it happens to two folks here buy they still got theirs' so I feel a lot better
This happen to anyone else ?
Hey guys, just getting started with my Killer, and having some issues: the post in the 510 extender at the base of the Killer is floating, which means that: I adjust the 510 pin of my mod for the Killer to make contact in closed position. Then, when I open it, it doesn't make contact anymore and I have to take it off the mod, and raise the center pin connection. Basically, I have to adjust the center pin anytime I make the Killer's opening wider (I hope this makes sense). Is this normal? Or is the base of my Killer broken? Thanks in advance for your help

That's exactly how mine operates. Once I find a spot that I'm happy with for juice control, I leave it there. If you want to fully close the juice control, you slide the tank up as much as it can go and it will completely cover the juice feed holes.
as I am waiting for my orders from greek vapes and hoping they get here without issues
my 22mm Ibtanked came in today. Didnt give me too much fuss with the killer looks good too.

Thanks, that makes sense. I guess the pin has to be floating so it keeps the circuit going when you open the atty.
