So I decided to adventure into the world of rebuilding. Grabbed an IGO-W and some 30g kanthal. So far I'm just using the silica wick that came with the IGO-W and dripping some of my left over redbull juice. I did 8 wraps and it came out to 1.9ohm which is decent for my first coil I think. Works well on my MVP v2, I just need to get these stock air holes drilled out :)

I don't want to go for a dual coil build until I get some more airflow through the device. The draw is so tight at stock...

I agree; Nice first coil! The only thing I could recommend is to raise the coil off the deck a little higher. It will perform a little better this way. It will also help guarantee that you coil is not sitting in the juice puddle. When the coil sits in the pool of juice, it tends to boil the juice and not fully vaporize it. Just a tip

Thanks for the tip!

I got a cotton wick put in. Loving this Alien Visions Watermelon Overload, I put a drip or 2 of Thug Juice in every once in a while to get a little blast of menthol too :) Also very pleased with my decision to get the Grand Vapor Armada drip tip, it's beautiful.
