New Genesis type atomizer by DID!

Heh. Probably not, but there will always be those who aspire to squeeze out that last 1 or 2% of sheer excellence and will try various methods to achieve it. Me, I was just curious about it as I can see how this might actually assist wicking. Do I NEED better wicking? Nope. Would I take it if offered? Yup

Haven't tried it yet but some have reported good results. At least it's yet another technique available to those having trouble with shorts/hot spots, etc. Whatever works!

I may try it one day for the experience, but I'm leery of anything that affects the flavors I'm getting now.

I wouldn't disagree with that. I, too, remain skeptical about anything that may affect taste. But for some juices I've tried a little added cotton flavour may have actually represented an improvement

I am, unfortunately, a one pv man at the moment; so it will be imperative that I get it right. Not trying to put pressure on myself, but it is a reality. I feel confident with the backing of this community that I will be able.

I too Sir am confident you will succeed! This community has helped me not only with all things vaping, but many members here have offered me wonderful friendships.

I found it in thus paint section of Walmart, 2 sq yards for a couple of bucks. However I really did not tike the taste.....so.... I had some silica wick laying around. I unravelled that until I got down to a thin enough thread and did exactly thus same thing with it as I had done the cotton. Works great and I can't taste it at all. I figured the silica can be torched with the wick when I clean it. I actually took all my DIDs and added the silicone to them all as well as my Katana and orion. It is a treat being able to take several drags off the Katana and not get a knife in my throat.

I wasn't able to find cheesecloth today despite 3 attempts at local grocers. I did read somewhere that the cotton taste is supposed to eventually disappear; hopefully there's some truth to that. Thanks for your 1st hand report!

Not to be paranoid, but have you seen this thread about silca particles coming off wicks? (http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/modding-forum/284030-wick-materials-safe-vs-dangerous.html)

Oh and another thing about the cotton it becomes an impossible mess to get off the wick. I could probably have used a lighter and burned it off but ended up throwing the wicks out. I have gobs made already so no sweat. I usually make 10 - 15 wicks at a time out of 270, 325, and 400 mesh. 270 is my favorite because it wicks like crazy but it is a pain in the Heine with shorts.

This will a rope is supposed to have particles way to big to be inhaled. As I was unravelling the rope I doesn't see any fragments falling off. I would imagine that when wet it wou.d be ecen less likely tl drop particles. Most of us have vaped with silica at some time or another - it is found in many atties.

You're right and there's no proof the particles even cause harm. I just wanted to pass the info along. It's one of the reasons I started looking into RBA's and fortunately landed here in DIDville. I really like the purity of SS wick vaping.

I bought the mini.

hmmm went to pre-order my DID and now there's a mini option well not sure which one to buy now

 

[Bimbo]

Has anyone used a KICK with the DID? I am planning to buy a KICK to place it on my GGTS (starting to get rusty).

If you have tried, kindly share your experience. Thanks

My DID and Kick is on the way but have no idea what (available) tube to use with them. Any suggestion?

Just made a new coil for the fun of it.

I took 20 cm of Kanthal D 0.2mm, "doubled" it over and wound it tightly creating a 10 cm piece of Kanthal.

Wrapped this in a 2/3 wrap and fired it up.

Result: No hotspots or shorts, the entire coil lights up bright red.

Vapour: Intense... There's a LOT of vapour coming from this coil now.

Taste is a tad muted as compared to a "normal" coil, but not noteworthy...

I'm unfortunately not able to meter it yet, Provari is a couple of days out... But sweet mother of god, the vapour on this thing is great.

I dont think #0357 won... It looks like Jim just assigned each entry with a number so he can run it through a random number generator. 0357 just happened to be the first number on the list

 

[grabeard]

I agree, 0357 has been in first of the list all along.

Where is it in classys? I might want it.
