ok guys ody arrived now ribble told me I can check my ohm by using the voltmeter but where and how do I know where to put it? (please no comments saying "you know where to put it"). lol

I could not find one video that actually tells me on how to check my ohm when building an atty.

Thanks in advance

Oddy,

Short mode tank is a Female Bottom and Male top. The expansion tank is Female Bottom and Female top. It will not work as suggested

I think he meant two of the former (the short mode tanks with female bottom/male top) stacked, instead of using the expansion tank piece and window. I don't see why it wouldn't work, though it would be about 3/16" shorter than the correct big mode setup (using both short mode and expansion pack tank pieces plus the window). I can't demonstrate since I only have one Ody

EDIT: again, I type too slow :oops:

but being 3/16" shorter would be perfect for ggts base no? ;)

Ahh, I see what you mean now. One problem I foresee doing that though is the ability of the mouthpiece to screw completely off of the ceramic housing if you adjust the juice control too much thus flooding the atomizer.

Have to forgive my sluggishness in seeing what you meant. My brain is kinda fried trying to put all of this together and illustrate it correctly Lol :-x :shock:

short mode tank stacked on short mode tank. thats my suggestion, the base is male, into female of 1st tank, male of 1st tank into next female 2nd tank, male of that tank into female of top cap, ????

Well, you can check the resistance of the wire easy enough. Attach your NR wire on one side, first, then you can put one probe on the NR wire and the other probe on your R wire. Just move the probe along the R wire until you reach the resistance you want, this is where you want to twist on the second NR wire. Once you've put both NR wires on, you can put your meter probes on either end to get the final resistance

Just remember to account for the internal resistance of your meter. Put the two probes together and make a note of what the meter reads. You need to subtract this figure from what you measure on your R wire in order to have the actual resistance. For example: my meter reads 0.4 ohms with the probes touching, so if my coil reads 1.9 ohms my actual coil resistance is 1.5 ohms

Hope that makes sense :)

would be the opposite though, the short mode tank falls just shorter than the expantion tank and window.

so i'm thinking the would alleviate the issue of adding the extra o-ring in big mode on ggts base


just need some one with kit to try this and confirm, with pics hopefully.

Yes, I believe so.

Zor, with the GGTS base I can already screw my mouthpiece completely off the base if I'm not careful (done it a couple times). With Oddy's setup the overall tank would actually be a little shorter than big mode as-is, so this may become a non-issue in that case ;-)

But with only one Ody I can't try it and as I mentioned I'm a fan of the clear window so I'm perfectly good with what I got going on right now :p


heh heh, we're all posting at the same time. I'm starting to get confused, lol

Using the GGTS base, put a 9x2mm O-Ring on top of the shoulder of the mouthpiece to prevent it from coming unscrewed.

Yes, I believe so.

I've got a couple of those or similar size, i just keep forgetting to put one in when I open it up to refill . . . On the plus side, I haven't flooded it at all when I have unscrewed it completely. Using all-VG juice at the moment and the separation is small enough that if I catch it quick enough it doesn't have time to seep in too badly

I'm running 2 big mode tanks with Iken Attys 1 2ohm 1 3.5ohm 510 Atty's in the tanks, let me tell ya this thing kicks some serious Azz, no leaks and the thickest whitest most flavorful vape there is. Also running one short mode with the bottom connector, tank piece, and clear window, with wrapping my own wick/coil and that kicks Azz, then I have 2 Dripper modes set up and both of them vape just super too. Every set up in all the tanks I have going are running like a freight train I tell ya, just a super vape. but the 2 big mode tanks with the 510 Att's in them is just pure blissful vaping guys. Only thing I havent tried yet is a CE2, I have a botch of some of the newer ones on the way with the bigger wicks and wanting to try that next

Hey man how ya been? this is for the NR wire right? What the difference between the half hard, dead soft and such? (i know that sounds bad too) LOL.. anyways does it make a better connection being soft or hard? LOL

You want the half hard Landlord, that sound kinda funny, but like she said it's better then the dead soft ;-) they sell in bulk too, I ordered 30 feet twice of the stuff for 60 total just place as many feet as you want and when you go to check out it will add it all up and they will send you a pkg or two of it instead of 5 foot pieces, and also give you the wholesale price I believe

I think the clear window can be relocated to the top tank by using the top tank in the middle and the window on top.

Remove the top steel tank piece and attach the lid to the clear for a medium tank w/window on top. The mouthpiece would be short.

There aren't any male/male steel pieces to replace the window and complete the big mode.

Something else I was just thinking, has anyone tried a sealed 510 Atty, like the ones with no hole on the bottom center pin, I know it would feed through the two holes on the side of the threads I just dont know if it would breath and allow air to take a pull, if so it would seem to be a great Atty if it works, you would never lose a drop of liquid using this kind of Atty, if anyone has one try it, I have to wait till my tank is empty I just filled.
