Picture yourself inserting the wires kind of like in a "Z" pattern, dont know if i explained correct lol but the "/" is the wick coiled and the 2 "-" stick the wire that go in the post, the wick should be below the hole, after you screw the wires in the post dont cut with tools just wiggle it a bit to get some tension and they will snap very nice, remember to always use a fair amount of wire to work with it at first until you get the hang of it, wire is cheap
I would say that I still like mine right in front of the hole, like it was received, but with my wire and 3mm Ody wick. Seems to be the easiest to set up. I tried to do the Z thing, but this is not how it seemed to be made to be set up. I am thinking tomorrow that I will be adding a second coil to the other side. I mean it's just sitting there all naked, so using 32 KA what do you guys think the ohms should be on each coil to make a 1.7ohm dual coil. But I don't know if I want to play with it, just working so well right now. Clyde you are THE MAN. I am impressing my friends and getting more ladies now that I have this. I have 2 "other" bottom feeding RA's on the way, and if they don't compare I will be getting at least one more of these. I would get many more, but they don't fit on my other REOs, and for some reason even though the cup is massive in my King Kong Monkeyboxxes, it doesn't make connection, I think it's due to the length of the connector, I think it's the thickness of the catch cups keeping it from hitting the bottom, yet all of my other atomizers work great in them like the Ikenvape Fusion. The other BF RA's I have on the way, have a longer connection as far as I can tell, since the people with the drip only version are complaining of a gap on their Provari! So I guess that would be what I would tell Mark, be more specific about what mods it fits in, or doesn't and it might need to have a longer or adjustable connector and that I love it...and if he needs a beta tester for the V2 I would give it a shot!
This is the best rebuildable I have ever had, and in my VVW with a 1.7 ohm coil at 4.5V with 12mg Pink Spot, it is the most flavorful, best throat hit vape I have ever had, and I think anyone with a Zen would be VERY impressed. It's all just wire and wick when you get down to it, and bottom feeding is the best way to conveniently get juice to a coil in the dark.

Here's what I did....34 Nichrome....Double 3mm Ody Wick....Left the tails a little long opposite the air hole. Working great.
That help?
That help?
Yep the long tail on one side is the way to go...it helps it hold more juice and you can still screw on the top.
Wow that 34 Nichrome really brings the resistance up, or is it doubling up the wick and making more coil surface?
What do you mean non-drip version? My Chalice works perfectly on my Provari, or am I just completely misunderstanding?
He doesnt mean that it doesnt
just people with OCD cant stand the gap between atty and mod.
It's the 34 Nichrome....same setup with 32 Kanthal is a lot lower.
Ohh ok... Was about to say, looking at both the Chalice and the Mark-T, there is literally about a 1/8th of a millimeter between mod and atomizer.
Felling a lot of love here, the Chalice is what every bottom feeder needs. It does have a learning curve, especially if its your first RBA. I struggled the first day trying to find the right setup for me. Hildicat posted how to wrap the coil on a toothpick and put the wires through the posts before removing it. I tried it and it works every time, you just slide your wick in and boom perfect every time. You can easily pull the wick out and dry burn then put in a new piece of wick and good again. The price is high but worth it. I know I will be ordering another when they come back in stock.
Thanks for noticing that, it was a long post....it was supposed to be Drip only version...exactly opposite.
That is correct...didn't want to talk about another product on a thread that I don't know what is up with it. I get overly cautious sometimes.
here ya go MXBNW this is my new vertical cotton wick
coils are not perfect but my goal was to get the wick right first although even though the coils mabe not so pretty no hot spots and amazing vape on it

Set mine up with the same Nichrome now, wow, what a difference.. 2.8 ohm and already better flavor...if that's possible, and it's not even broken in yet. Got the Z formation down now. Best pictures yet, thanks Dino.
