After reading your post I watched a Rip Trippers review on the OBS Engine Nano...I liked the velocity style deck and how the cotton wicks go down into the holes..
My dad loves the von erl.I refilled a pod for him today, it's very easy (you just remove the base with something like a plier to flick it out, then fill on the sides and snap the base back on). Works perfectly.I had a look at the Von Erl pods but i dont like the fact that:
1) inbuilt battery with too small mah.
2) have to stay with the company. The pod bits which take the juice dont last forever do they?
I love the look of the Kabuki, Its a beautiful piece. I wish they had made an rta version. I've seen the little add on but its too small. I bought one for the nautilus a while back. No good.
Yes, sure. And Americans should close Walmarts and stop buying phones from tax-evading, jobs shipping Apple of Jobs.
Love the erlkonigin and erlprinz and never heard of prebuilts for them, AFAIK it's a 100 percent rebuildable .
Yes I do have a mini 521 to check resistances.. all good there.. i use it before i fill up a tank to make sure the coil isn't a DOA (some tanks drain all liquid without coil, for example, so to avoid waste).
Agreed. I keep buying those eleaf readers and then wishing I bought the 521.
The one thing I wondered is how does the battery work when pulsing builds that require 18650s?
Is there a compartment for big batteries in there?
Those 521 tabs are good for sure but don't you check the resistance once it's already installed on a tank deck? I don't own that particular one but have a similar one. So yes it's good but imo no different to a regulated mod. When I first started to rebuild I bought a plain multimeter which checks the actual coil before you install it on a tank. I kind of liked it because if it was a bit to high, you could easily reduce a wrap or go the other way and add a wrap. So just an other option if you decide to do coils. They are very simple tbh and very inexpensive
excellent thanks. I find my MTL resistances I like are not more than 1.5, and 1 and 1.2 are very welcome. So that's what I'd be trying to build to begin with.
I have to find the box, i think there might be an RBA in there and i have something to start with and didn't even realise? lol.i screw in the tank with the coil before I build it. It's no more accurate than my mvp pro but i have misfired that before and totally burnt the cotton of a coil. You see for example with the innokin MTL tanks and the original isub, if you remove the coil it drains all the juice, so i test it before the first ever fill. Just screw on the empty tank to the resistance checker, in resistance read mode. Easy. You'd be surprised how many DOA coils one can get when you buy 10, sometimes 2 out of 10, so imagine if you've just filled the tank with 4mls, and it's a dead coil, there goes perfectly good juice! At least when a coil is on it's way out, you have advance warning, the taste at first starts muting, then it will eventually taste burnt. So once i notice a muted taste, i vape whatever is left in the tank, then toss the pre built coil, put in a new one, test it on the ohm reader, then fill. Rinse cycle repeat. I've saved a ton of juice doing it this way. With bottom fill kanger and aspire tanks it doesn't matter, cause you just flip the tank upside down and remove the base and can change the coil even with a full tank. But even so, i still test the coils first on an assembled empty tank, cause why waste the priming juice? LOL
Understood . . What I'm saying is if you decide to make your coils a multimeter can check the resistance of just the coil, it attaches with alligator clips so you don't have to attach the new coil to the tank to check it. It's good to do both but to be able to check just the coil itself gives you an option of redoing said coil before screwing it into the tank first

Geez with pre built coils I always know my wattages, but this would be a whole new ballgame.
With the siren, it seems to wick well and I'm hoping i could get a 20 watt 1.0 ohm vape out of it.. would that be unrealistic? I have a serious addiction to throat hit, i would pick a throat hit over every other aspect of vaping.
I have shaky hands, i'm only in early 40's but there's definitely some sort of issue there, this is why i am concerned i'd get very frustrated. But i am really inspired now to give it a go! Why not! Lots of places out of stock of the siren, so i'll keep searching. I trust Pete's review and watched all 50 minutes of it, so i'm kind of dead set on that being my first RBA tank.
I do have a subtank plus, as the 1.2 ssocc provide a terrific MTL and are often overlooked, plus it gives me 7 mils of MTL when out, hence, an entire day out with a charged 3500 mah mod at 17 watts equals 24 hr vaping for me.
will definitely be studying the steam coil builder. Cheers!
