We know from LA that the Hcigar KFL+ v2 is made well , I would have gone for the Hcigar Magma by preference if they had been available when I got mine .


I've got the HCigar Magma coming. Let you know how that pans out..

    Kanthal A1 I've used .5, .6 and .8. I use the .6 in the KFL and I use the .8 in the Zenith clone.
    I thought about ribbon wire right up to the point that I realised I'd have to learn another set of numbers for size and resistance and decided it was easier to remain ignorant . :)

    New numbers not needed. .5=32ga .6=30ga .8=28ga Or close enough. I'm believe I have that right.
    Then why the hell not call them 28ga, 30ga etc ? I got enough math swimming around in my head now without the additional conversions , guess I'm getting old and cranky huh ? :)

    Settle down cranky old man! :)

    Gauge measurements are relegated to round wire and flat sheet stock. Not flat wire.

    Bah Humbug ! The hell with complacent , let's go for obstinate with a side order of stubborn thrown in ! It'd just be simpler for my tired old brain if it was described as 28ga flat or round but they always gotta reinvent the dammed wheel ! :)

    LOL! It would be helpful if they cross referenced the round gauge wire.

    You'll try it and it will remind you why you didn't like it in the first place. You're not as cool as me but you still like it cooler than many. And you're also someone who prefers a regulated vape. Just admit who you are Dust! :)
