@Wraith504 yeah I have 2 Sony vtc5's. What are some more good batteries?
None. stick with those. If you need more and cant find them xtar is rebranding the vtc5s. but you would be just as good with vtc4s. If you can drip 24mg on a subohm build then something doesnt sound right.

I think you may need more airholes, because just leaving one open on each side of my TOBH would annoy me. Also, I am a cotton guy myself, but that is besides the point. I always leave a space directly under the coil for air to flow, and it chucks pretty good. Also, I have heard the clouds on youtube seem fuller due to the strategic lighting for some of the fellows, take that as you may.

Ignore the crappy build, did it on break with someone in my ear the whole time, just pointing out the portion underneath the coil.

Ill do the same with my builds that are .3 and over but anything metering at .25 or lower u tuck a bit of the cotton tails under the coils. I am pretty particular to my tobh as well, although mine is not stock.

Is that yarn? If so ditch it, wicks way too slow. If not, are you twisting your wick? Dont do that either.

***If you are not an advance user do not do any of the above stuff. This should not be done on any clones it should be done on authentic items****

I agree with the first portion, but the latter is pure ignorance of the mechanics of vaping.

I promise you, voltage does not care about whether or not what it is being conducted through is an original/authentic or not.

Loving your coils, just haven't gotten down to nano coils yet. The mech I borrowed to learn on had nanos to begin with, and after 5 minutes fooling around trying to thread, I ripped them out and said forget this lol. Also, I occasionally wrap macro coils (like the OP did) when I get in the mood or don't feel like threading a needle to re-wick. To each their own!

I swear I'm telling the truth about the 24mg...

I have ordered a Stingray Clone and some better RDA's and I also bought some pre made sub ohm coils (I need to really work on my coil building). Let's see how these things work out. I then might have to drop the nic level...? :-\
