Thanks brother, much appreciated! I have tried everything on the planet except for bottom feeders, at that time, and so I wanted to give one a shot, I wasn't happy with the lack of ability to run low ohm builds on any available so I built this one myself, it has the lowest v drop of just about any mod, @ 0.3 ohm even .. And it runs that low or lower all day every day with no problems.
I have been using it exclusively, well pretty much, for months now and I can not be happier. I was going to make a batch of them but they take a ton of work so I would have to charge a lot, and with the summer coming I'd rather be out enjoying the sunshine than being cooped up in the shop. If I get enough people who want then I may consider making a batch, they would be a bit prettier, this was just the prototype so I didn't worry about aesthetics too much. If I did make a batch they would all be custom pieces.
I have come to the conclusion that THE RIGHT bottom feeder is the Mack Daddy of the vape world. Thanks again for the kind words bud. I have a thread search bottom feeder beast, there's a few more pics of the process.

Finally pulled it off - Maybe not with 30G wire, but behold my new favorite - 32G Kanthal A1 'Double Barrel' / Cotton Build @ 1.03 Ohms:

I'm driving that baby at 15W and the vapor and throat hit is INSANE. Flavor - meh... then again, I'm too afraid to take a direct lung hit on it. LOL.

Nevermind that, took a lung hit, burns like hell itself. The TH almost dropped me. Which makes me wonder, do I need to drop my nic level? I'm at 24 now.

You may. I vape 12mg all day, but on my dripper I vape 3. 6mg kills me. I am usually around .2 ohms, though.

I loved the stove top that I decided to try it with 22 gauge. this hits like a beat with 22 gauge. If I remember it came out to around .25 ohms

Have you tried tilting it back at top? I did a pancake with MM about 6 months ago and it seemed to work better canted.

what vdrops are you getting at dif ohms.. I don't go as low as 0.3Ω.. what do you get at 1 & say 0.5? :)

its close! just a shame the braided wire coil doesn't work the same as a touching single wire coil, if it did it would win hands down, the dual you have looks tame and the other a bit more vicious:p but im biased

I might try a dual coil braided on the cyclone, the reo needs a bath anyway :)


Dual nano coil, 28 gauge kanthal @ 0.3Ω

this setup followed by a single coil braided 30 gauge @ 0.4Ω

which do you think performs better?
