Orchid by Aethertech

[deedupdex]

Quick build on the @aethertech Orchid. Nothing crazy at all. Simplicity on these tanks are best. Yes you are looking at a low .3ohm build on this badboy. I bored out the stock outer holes to a 7/64 and the two inner holes to 3/32 (I can go one more bigger on both). The channels on these keep up using an iTEO wick. This is def the kayfun/fogger V4 killer I have been waiting for. You chasers out there this is probably what you are searching for. No need to drip cause this thing blows clouds! Dual 24g 7/64 I.D 7wrap

I'd be scared poopless to drill out a brand new $150 device. Why couldn't they just do that from the factory?

One question, how do you get this bad boy to not leak? I've gone as far as stuffing cotton into the wells and still, leaking like a sieve.

Your wicking may be fine. How far are your coils from the air holes? I have found that adjusting their height between the coil and air holes can make all the difference in the world.

Right now it seems to be out of stock. I would love to get one. Anyone?

I also like the fact that they mentioned that SvoeMesto, Russian 91 and Kayfun parts can be inter changeable.

deedupdex, bro your coiling skills...very clean. It's like art work bro, very nice.

How's the flavor compared to the Fv4? I'm all for vapor but I'm not a cloud chaser I like my builds around 0.4ohm 0.30ohm but the flavor has to be there, I run my Fv4's @ 0.5 0hm I think they start sacrificing flavor lower than that.

How did you get those perfect over head radius bends on your coils? needle nose pliers, the drill bit you used to wrap your coils? And how did you get the spacing correct to line up with the post holes? Did you get it on the first try or is the wire good enough to work it in correctly after a few tries? Thanks

I can't tell you what the OP used, but I use these pliers to get nice rounded bends. They are called "round nose pliers" and are used by jewelry makers.

 

[RickD312]

thanks gonna get some and try it. I notice in his pics one has them both over head. and the other pic has one over head and one underneath. which one is better? i know its to keep the juice channels clear and for the wick to drape down over the juice channel. i just got mine some i am going to have to try different builds.

what's an iteo wick?

 

[RickD312]

I googled it and it has some interesting results. it leads to Deedupdex himself. amazing work.

what's an iteo wick?

 

[mikeylab]

i am in the market for a tank style rebuildable for use while driving. i passed on the first version, just in case there were issues with the design. What wicking methods are being used to eliminate leaking? I am still very interested in this atomizer, as it seems to have larger air intake, and would have a much looser draw than the kayfun lite. any advice is appreciated!!

 

[Tbev]

Use rayon and you'd be all good!

thanks for the advice! I was just reading on iteo wicking, but it might take me a while to get it right. i really want one of these at some point.

That wick doesn't hold a candle to rayon, I'm not sure but I know rayon is awesome.
