Well switched to Ekowool today. Went with the skinny stuff doubled and pulled through the micro threaded on a piece of wire. Quick and easy and getting really good results. Might be my favorite setup so far. Threw a black Smok Mini in the cart when buying batts, was a PITA to convert to BF but seems worth the hassle. The 2.1 is officially in Stealth Mode. I've been worried about glare when hunting, problem solved.

I torched the crap out of the wire, folded it and placed the 2 ends in a drill. Put a screwdriver in the folded loop end and held pressure and twisted until it snapped. re-torched the twisted wire, then did a 10/11 wrap on a 16ga supe-x syringe. Pinched the coil with pliers and torched it in the pliers while compressing. Once hot I quenched without releasing pressure, Wash, rinse, repeat x3

Takes a couple primer puffs, but zOMG is it tasty!

What do you have there Mr. Toole??!! Single coil alternating? Dual coil dibby crack + ahort stack?

Do tell! Looks great!

Looks great, vapes like crap. Single coil alt, two top coils were wrapped around a blunt needle while the mid was wrapped around a drill bit. Still going to keep experimenting. Maybe tomorrow. My fingers hurt from inadvertent blood draws from 28g Kanthal... Coil building does get addicting..

On another note, Since BTV shut down is there any other place to buy Kiln/Heat treated XC-116? Google has not really been that much of a help.


I have some. PM me if you want.

if you actually mean xc-132 (the stuff that fits in a 1/16" micro coil) here http://sngvapor.com/RBA/XC132
