OK, first try on this one (both the parallel 26ga and the Bb code) so here goes nothing.
I got a 26650 mod a while back and have been looking for an rda with a big enough deck to take advantage of the added power. This weekend we got a day off work and I went shopping.
Sadly a friend of mine had just got the only plume veil (clone, but damned impressive) so I settled on a Patriot. The guy at the store built the plume veil, pretty sad but that's for another time.
The patriot gives me just a touch more room so I can drop in parallel 26ga at 9/8 wraps on a 2.4mm mandrel, and still has some airflow room to work with. Drilling out the topcap to 3/32" was a pita (destroyed a drill bit lol) but is enough air to support the hotter coils. I had to open up the post holes to run the parallel 26ga, but I think its worth it.
Prelim wicking
Full set up
The heat sink doesn't really work for the mass of the coils but the drip tip still is decent with the amount of heat. Yes this is possible on an 18650, but only in the pulse range so I wouldn't even bother at nearly .25ohms.
Have the right gear or you're putting a grenade in your hand.

Oh that HCigar Helmsman Mod... How is your switch?
Once you get all the machine oil off its pretty good. Its magnetic, and the "grooves" don't line up very well out of the box so it can be a bit "crunchy" but with a little working it fires very well.
A pretty good piece for bouncing in a semi lol.
What do you think of that big fogger?
Yes I do.
This Wolverine was not working out for me at all. After wasting a half of spool of 26 Gauge Kanthal wire and tons of Rayon. Trying to do and re-do this thing.
I gave up on trying to make it work.
I just made an Aqua or Fogger out of it by making a new set of Airholes:
It made a World of difference! I can enjoy it now.
Heheheh hehehehe hehehehe. So I was bored and bought myself a macro lens attachment for my iPhone. LOOK AT MEEE AND SUPER MAGNIFIED PEEKCHURES
I also spent like 10mins trying to snap a macro picture of an ant. Much failure indeed.

I've got to get me one of those lens too. Because all of my pictures are made using an iPhone 5.
Could you share a link to that Lens attachment?
Thanks.
Very nice coils and pictures indeed!

I would except I got this off a random cart in a mall in Singapore (where I am right now). It was like SGD11 which comes out to USD9. I'm sure you can find it on eBay. Search for iPhone 5 macro lens
ETA: mine looks like this

Could you pick them up?
Just kidding.

Grin. Exactly. A 6 dorrah lens on a iPhone 5s. And it's dead easy: just clip it on.
Way to pull out all the stops trucker!
Those pice are pretty sweet, that lens just suction cups on or what?

Looks like the airflow came around the center post when it was stock... kind of an odd setup.Yes I do.

It clips on like an old fashion clothespin, but you are too young to remember those.

Very odd and useless IMHO
Because the Ceramic cup is not hermetically sealed and the air will be coming out every which way from around the cup and around the Positive Terminal. It's like a bad carburetor, where it allows to flow through the Jet and around the Jet as well.
Besides drilling new Airflow holes, I sealed those old Airholes on the side with three headless screws and sanded them flush, and also sealed the bottom 510 connector with Silicone insulator from AGA or something. Now I have my Airflow completely insulated from anything else.

I personally love a 0.8ohm build, seems to be my sweet spot for flavor, battery life, warmth and vapor production in my Tobh, my Quasar and my Igo-L
