I think I am nic-sick.
Ok.
Quick run down.
Soaped, Brushed, Cleaned. Checked all holes for burs, found no burs. Threads are smooth. Threading the plastic
tank is a bit iffy. Have to be really careful there or I'll be replacing that plastic
tank. Luckily you can put the metal caps on and basically leave it that way even for rebuilding. So not a big deal.
Airflow control. Right now it's pretty pointless, the draw is really tight even with the grub screw totally removed. Unfortunately I'll have to wait to drill it out until another time (no drill here). In the mean time I will deal with it.
four builds.
First build, 28 gauge, 8 wraps. Originally came out to 1.4, but once I had liquid in the tank it dropped to 1.1? bleah. Tossed the coil.
Build #2: The leg popped. I think I had just twisted it one too many times while adjusting the coil to where I wanted it.
Build #3: Leaked everwhere. I think the coil was too close to the airhole. No vapor.
Build #4: Got sick of messing with 28 gauge. It is thick and hard to manipulate. At this point I just said screw it and went back to 30 gauge. Much easier to work with. Coil came out to 1.6ohms. Draw is still tight. We have vapor and flavor, but OMG Throat hit. Yeooow. Perhaps the coil is too far away from air hole? No leakage so far.
Now everyone else complained that the screws they got weren't stainless. Mine are. so I don't know what the deal is about that. My only complaint is the airflow is just very tight compared to my PT 2. My mini-pt's are tighter than the PT2, and this is tightest of them all.
and that's where I am. a little dizzy. oh and NO whistle at all. none, nada, zilch.
