like Pandora's Box....

[jotook24tovaip]

I have posted in the past about my fabulous December and vape mail. I got the last piece today...fasttech...of course.
The package was like Pandora's Box...I kind of want to undo the opening!
It contained a couple of misc. things, replacement coils and the like...and a (surprisingly) little ohm/volt checker (you know the one), a rebuildable (v5? translucent) and a $12 mechanical (m16).
I first played with the ohm/volt checker and then added some diy "creamy burro" to the Atty.
I put it on my itastes and my ego vv... cool...nice dual coil with good vapor. It read .9 ohms but fired on all devices.
I then put a mnke 18650 in the mech. and tried the Atty....I wish I could take it back...lol! How can an unregulated 4.18v do THAT...when none of the others could deliver at any voltage 3.3-5?
The flavor! The thick chest tickling vapor (without the harsh throat burn!) I had no clue how good my juice was...notes I had never tasted...
the point is...unless this changes as time ticks by (vaping often does) I may be ruined as far as...all my other...stuff....countless clearos...tanks...coils etc. Five vv devices...Stop world...and gimmee my...
Mechanical & rba!
Just wanted to vent...and I thought my DIY juice was mediocre...and that's a cheesy factory wind too..ruined I am...ruined...gonna have to lower my nic. level...

Lol. My v3 mod from ft is all I use anymore. I don't have a good dripper at the moment. I had the immortaclone from ft for a while but returned it because of a stripped out screw hole. I do have a fatty v3 on it's way, plus the brass neme clone.

All I can say is give some thought to joining the kayfun/chifun crowd. The flavor of a dripper with the convenience of a tank imo.

I have no doubt...I notice the "perfect vape" window is kind of short with drippers with only 2 or 3 in between to much then to little juice. Guess I am gonna have to.. or start carrying a bottle-n-wick kit! (Or both!)

I've seen some pictures were folks wrap one or both ends of the wick up in the chamber to increase capacity. I'm glad it works for them, but I always wind up tearing those back out when I try them. The best I can do to suit me is a build that holds ~20 drops to start and vapes out 8/9 drops before redripping. Always a nice fresh taste that way.

Wow 8-9? I need some schoolin' luckily I have tons of wick (1.5-3.5), cotton (balls, pads, tips), wire (28-32 gauge 25'+ rolls w/ scraps of 34 & 36 too), a 3rd hand table tool, tweezers,etc...etc... would a answered sooner but fell asleep...flavor coma!

I doubt your VV devices were firing the .9 ohm coil at the voltages you selected. Protection circuits probably had them firing at or near the lowest voltage they will do.

No way to tell I guess. It did warm up tho.I have noticed it in the past on rebuilds for an evod/protank coil. I bet if I checked it with something like my new handy dandy little ohm checker it was probably a little higher like 1.1 or so. I thought the protections wouldn't allow firing less than 1 ohm on my vv devices (according to directions). I have read/been told that you really can't trust the ohms check on my itastes to be perfect
What gets me is the difference I notice in my protank...unregulated, somehow, fires...I don't know if stronger is the right word, but it is definitely different. I am really glad this works like it does as investing in a mechanical (device, rebuildable, batteries, charger etc.), even low end stuff, wasn't cheap (to me).
