• Need help from former MFS (MyFreedomSmokes) customers

    Has any found a supplier or company that has tobacco e-juice like or very similar to MFS Turbosmog, Tall Paul, or Red Luck?

That is true, the legs don't glow at all with tightly wound coils (but of course they do get hot). I have ben running tightly wound micro & mini coils in all my RBAs & on none of them do the legs glow. But on my RSST the coil in it now is not tightly coiled & one leg does glow. I've been meaning to make a new coil for it but I don't use it all that much.

Here's another try at it , this time cheesecloth, my XC 116 isn't going to fit in there I think.

This one works much better.
I had some extra wire under the positive screw, I carefully pulled it out some more and lowered it a bit, really good now. It's really close to the air hole now.

Agreed. I like to get the coil right up to the air hole. For me excessive wick doesn't do anything except prevent leaking on certain RBAs. All that juice doesn't really make it to the coil anyway, although rolled cotton does the best job at it. For Ekowool the excess wick is just a mop.

A short rolled cotton wick will suck up everything in the well. In the second pic the well was full with juice & the cotton sucked it all up.

the xc 132 fits great in a 1/16" wrapped micro. It takes some serious faith. Wet the tip, light pressure, and corkscrew as far as your fingers can in one go. This should get it lodged just far enough so it won't fall out. Then you can twist away to get the rest. (oh, and twist with the "thread" of your coil, not against.)

In my 100000 experiments experience gauze or cheesecloth will feed until bone dry. If they touch the coil I can taste the cloth on each, I always coil use ss mesh with spliced cheesecloth feeding out of each end, not in coil area really quick feed.. Cottonballs are greedy and keep juice, they do a decent job but will not run feed my micro ss hybrid to bone dry..

Beautiful coil DZ, do the length of the tails raise the resistance, compensated by fewer wraps ?

May I suggest DUAL MICRO COILS for this purpose?

One of my "benchmarks" for getting a good vape is when the exhale obscures my line of sight of my laptop screen (usually just momentary). This bad boy is just ridiculous, not only is my los obscured it stays obscured for several seconds. I am finding myself either exhaling some other direction or clearing away the clouds with a few waves of my hand.

Hey Statistic, what are you wrapping those coils at? I've tried dual coil micros and can't seem to get enough heat quickly enough to produce a satisfying vape. Was using 28 guage in my Trident wrapped to 1.5 ohms each at 1/16", giving an effective resistance of .7 ohms or so.
