Orchid v3 in single coil mode?

[Mikedin]

Recently bought a orchid v3 and (and Aqua v2 but that will be another topic)

I was told only one person has been able to have the orchid run single Coil successfully

I am looking on how to do this as I want it to have the highest ohm possible

This is going to be my first build as it is my first atty I will attempt (I just bought my first mod (a ragnarok )

Any help on this will be much appreciated thanks in advance for any replies/help from a beginner

Only one person, huh? You didn't buy that, did you? Whoever told you that probably thinks this is all rocket science. I've never run a single coil in my Orchids (especially not these days when true single coil atties would perform so much better), but I can tell you anyone can do it. All you have to do is plug one of the intake holes, and build your coil on top of the other hole.... and that's about it. How would I plug the hole? Well, I have an assortment of viton rubber o-rings from Ace Hardware, and would easily find one in that kit that I could stuff into the unused hole.

After I posted this (from my phone) I finally got to my computer and found a few review and builds on YouTube and such

Thanks for replying everybody said use wick to block the unused juice channels but I think I like the idea of the o-rings better ,no juice moving at all on that side

you use the wick in your coil to deal with the wick holes/channels. Its the air holes you need to plug, wick wont do that.

Ahh gotcha I'm new to this I have 2 tanks coming the tobeco orchid v3 and a Aqua v2 by tobeco the Aqua needs the extra juice channels blocked with wick the extra air hole gets blocked by a screw

I am probably the first to single-coil Orchids. Here is the thread. Orchid as a single-coil | E-Cigarette Forum I have been doing it for eight months now. The price is right. I am getting ready to do duals, finally. No need to block the juice channels-- I chain-vape, and never a dry hit, until the vape tastes a bit off with an empty tank.
Just block the airhole on the outside of the unused side, I use a bit of cotton-- got plenty.
