Yes,i rebuild.The reason,i was using a pro tank,and the coils were getting expensive,so i decided to watch some videos on how to rebuild those.When i realized how much better the taste was,i decided to try out a few rda's then went on to the fogger's,orchids,etc.So rebuilding those little pro tank heads opened up a whole new world to me.

I absolutely rebuild. I've always been a bit of a tinkerer, so when I got back in to vaping and saw the advances in technology, such as RDAs, I thought it would be fun to try out down the road.

After vaping for a few days with my iTaste VV, and seeing how quickly the flavor went weak on the clearos that came with it, and the cost of replacement, I dove in and ordered three Igo-Ws, an ohm meter and a couple of rolls of Kanthal and cotton balls and haven't looked back.

Of course the economies of it hasn't really panned out, since last Friday I ordered a telescopic mod, 18650s, 18350s, charger and a Kayfun (from MadVapes, natch). That would have bought a lot of clearos and naughty heads, but where's the fun in that!

I don't rebuild yet, but I definitely want to start soon. I've got a few old Kanger heads to practice with and a Stanley precision screwdriver set for wrapping, just gotta get the ohm meter, kanthal, N cotton! I want to get like a Taifun eventually, maybe even a mech mod with a dripper.

Thanks for the contest!

Yes, I rebuild. I started off on Kanger protank coils, but I hated having to buy them every week. So I started rebuilding those. I could choose what ohms I wanted to do as well as the wick material (cotton, rayon, etc). It gave me much more flexibility as to how I wanted to vape. Then I moved into Kayfuns, Foggers, and now the Lemo. If I don't like the build I did, I just do it again. Easy peezy and much less expensive!:D P.S. I almost forgot to mention the flavor difference from premade clearo coils to custom homemade coils I make! Nite and day!

I rebuild. I started rebuilding Evod coils after about 3 weeks of vaping because of what I read here on ECF. I now use mostly Protank2's and build them between 1.1 and 1.8 Ohms using cotton. The flavor and vapor production just blows away stock coils and for under $20 you can get darn near a lifetime of supplies.

Thank you for the generous and ongoing contests.

Not yet. Started vaping to quit analogs. My equipment started simple and I've been slowly upgrading. I've been told I'm progressing nicely and should be ready to start "rebuilding" in another few months at the rate I'm going. I keep using the excuse that I'm not a cloud chaser, but I have gotten to the point where I'm a flavor chaser. Rebuilding is probably where I'll end up, just don't know when yet.
