Right by the air hole. I'm not having a problem vaping, just wondered if it's normal for the wick to brown. I'm vaping strapple so it's a very sweet juice.

Here is the Reo kicked with cooper foil tape.


You can get the foil tape off of ebay or at some music stores. It used on electric guitars. I got 6 FEET X 50mm Copper Foil Tape EMI Shielding for Guitars Pedals for less then $6 on the bay.

I just cut a piece to fit - then slid one end under the spring. I didn't take the backing off just because I wanted it to be temporary. So I can take it out and put back in anytime. You can take the backing off and it sticks really good. I used the same method on my VMOD. Takes all of a few minutes.

Is that the kick 2 or the original kick?

I've noticed when I make a longer wick it does better than a short one. With the sshorter one i have to squonk more often.

I'm thinking about buying some 28 kanthal. I'll probably have to do like 12 wraps to get my 1.5 I like.


Personal preference really. on a standard micro, I tend to leave enough wick on each side so it wraps around to each post. On my driver coils, i do just enough to fill the wick and have to squonk every 2-3 hits. In my cyclone, I pack it pretty full since it is post-fed. I need a bit of extra absorption power and often only squonk every 7-10 hits.

you also have to take into consideration wicking time. Even if your tails are a mile long... If you chain vape faster than it can wick it'll burn. If I have a big tail soaked w/ juice, I'll take a few puffs, wait a few mins, repeat... even w/ soaked tails, if I tried to take 10 chain toots it would burn.

Dude, XObox, your junk is all hangin' out the front there! Love the hybrid coil!

So I had to make something too. This is a furthering of the "L" coil. Dual coil, 29g Kan, didn't measure it. Pro'ly .7-.8Ω. Basically, I like the L coil better. But this one would be good for someone who likes "alot". I had mixed my fav. Lemonade 1/2 & 1/2 with the clear/unflavored that I made (my first batch :p). Despite that, it tastes like 100% lemonade again. So, I guess it's a "double flavor" coil. It runs pretty warm. 'S good.
