it could have been.... ;)
but its all gone now.
i'm on a long list of flavors, i vape a flavor 30ml at a time then its off to the next!

I dont sample and i no longer have an all-day-vape,
I live my life 30ml at a time! :2cool:

That's me, I have ONE flavor at home right now (my own "fruit" mix 50/50, 100ml), and I'm now looking to get something new.

I haven't tried Boba’s Bounty yet, because I'm on a Boge cartos. I've heard MANY people say it's so thick, it won't wick well in a carto. I just got my first Genesis (the RSST) and I'll try when I get a mech to run it on.

Speaking of... what mesh should I run for a thick mix, like Boba’s Bounty, in my RSST?? I have 400 now, but is that too fine for sludge like BB?

I use 400 with everything....

I believe its how you roll the mesh rather than what kind of mesh used.

I've settled on rolling somewhat tight rolls with a hollow center, then plugging up the fill hole.
I find this setup to wick moderately well even with pure VG juices, but still be safe enough to not leak if i lay it down in my car or on my desk. I dont get dry hits, but i also dont look like an addict when vaping(referring to excessive chain vaping).

Its all about experimenting, to see what works for you. :vapor:

when i run an 18350 battery, i keep it to 4/5 wraps. it puts me above 0.9 ohms.
18500 or 18650 i bring it down to 3/4 wraps, which puts me in the 0.7 ohm range.
High drain / high amp batteries only, AW IMR's are a respected choice.
i have also modified the air hole to compensate for the heat/vapor that the coil produces.

since you are new to the rebuildables.
i don't recommend doing this, as there is a risk involved whenever you make a sub-ohm coil.
and you should read up on the do's and don'ts of sub ohm vaping.

5 wraps should bring you above the 1.0 ohm rating.
but with any rebuildable, an ohm meter is a must.
many use mods to check, but I feel more comfortable attaching my coil to a $10 ohm meter than my $200 ProVari.
i would rather know the reading of a coil, than to read the word "Low" on a mod, so that i can adjust accordingly :p

This is Killa info!

The batteries I bought for my ELA are the new Orbtonics 2900mah. I read they are good high drain and I think 10amp stable for 5-6 seconds... I'll have to go back and read the exact numbers (at 45, the memory goes).

That would be a 10amp pulse, i look at continuous amp ratings...
just for that off chance that a mechanical is in my pocket or a bag and it accidentally fires.

28 gauge wire is thick, and it takes a lot for it to pop. So in the off chance you dont have any other safety (hot spring/fuse) you want to know that your battery wont thermal from being on for 3 minutes in a bag.
and in case of a short, those amp ratings can spike really high.

my advice, make sure you don't exceed the continuous amp limit, your battery may not explode, but those gasses that vent are HOT!
better to err on the side of caution.

Some say i'm being overly cautious, but I'd rather not get burn marks on my hand.
it just takes one time....
