    So I spend 250 bucks for a P3, and then use it just like I use my $159 P2.

    Alright, so the pontus came in today and I did a dual, 9 wrap coil of 30 gauge for 1.2 ohms. Overall I'm pretty happy with it. I can definitely echo the lack of flavor, but I'm enjoying it a lot more than my Kayfun as of right now. Very cool vape at 20 watts, fantastic at 30, but I'm building for the P3 right now. My main gripe is that the tank doesn't sit very tight on the base, but I'm probably going to remove the O-rings, put a layer of teflon tape on there, and put the o-rings back on. That should make it sit very snug. It just doesn't feel very safe in my pocket, especially if I'm working, so hopefully this will solve that. Mechanism works great and I'm enjoying it thus far. Do most of you only have bubbles coming out of one of the juice ports when you squonk? I feel like juice is probably going down both ports, but the air is coming back up the path of least resistance so I'm not real worried.

    Given the concept, I like it so far though! I'm excited to see how the big dripper clone performs compared to the pontus

    Yeah I don't trust the Pontus in my pocket for long. I usually just carry it in my hand.

    I'm interested in how the big dripper compares to the Pontus too. Please post again your thoughts when you get it!

    Will do! I rebuilt it with 26 gauge just now for 0.8 ohms. 12 wraps, and it's far more flavorful. Takes a while to spool up though. Anyone know if 27 gauge is easy to come by?
