Yeah you might as well wait till you get the Goon, what is the deck made of on the one your getting? it's a big IF but if i did get one i would get a full SS, not that it really makes a lot of difference but its a little easier to keep clean.

Which mods do you use? mechanical, regulated or both?
I never worry about HeatFlux on my Mechs i do builds where the heatflux is through the roof but they vape just fine, i think maybe if a person were to take a 3s-5s pull then you you could take it into account but on a build where you take 1s pulls and the wire doesn't fully heat as would in other builds its inapplicable.

I love the Decal :D I love Zombies :wub:
I'm getting black color but I don't know what it's made from. I don't want stainless steel cause I want to match. I went from all copper drippers to regulated box mods. Currently using rx200s. Painted it black and changed the letters to red.

Once my new decal comes in without the greenish tint I'll repaint it and lighten the tint to make the letters brighter.

I take long pulls 2 seconds and up so heat flux makes impact (currently at 80 Watts on this zipper build) in my case plus I don't want to get the tank too hot cause I don't want to crack it. So far so good, keeping it nice and warm without getting it too hot. But it'll be a different cause on a goon cause I won't have to worry about that. So I won't feel guilty building below .2

Lol at the zombiedude:cool::banana: it all varies bro, All depends on different style of vaping too. I'll chain vape my avocado but only few times a day. When I'm out in a car I'll often pick up my ego mini cause I want throat hit, sitting around the pad building or whatever I'll be on my kanger sometimes and use that. If I want flavor I'll pick up the avocado, first hit kind of chilly, second warm, 3rd warm, and I'm taking long 3 second or whatever pulls, after that it's all warmed up so I'm doing like little 1 second hits, after 5 of those I'll put it down and pick up my kanger or whatever. I alternate a lot I guess. So it all varies ya know

I kind of do the same.. I will alternate between a Copper Cherry Bomber and a Copper Raptor T6 if i want to chain a few and then at the same time i'm not stressing the batteries to much, but for me they have to be Hot on the first toot cus at times one pull is all i have time for.. no rest for the wicked.. then i have a Sigelei for chucking around when out, that thing has seen a few bangs and wallops and just keeps going strong, and for a little bedroom action i have a SnowWolf hiding in my drawer under the bed,Mrs Slip doesn't like me vaping there, but she work's nights soo!:glare::laugh:

Dude - HOT
Well if you think that was hot I can certainly bring the fire. This is just heating up.

40g interlocking alien over 10ply .3x.1mm ribbon cores framed by 28g. I thought 40g would be stupid hard to interlock over that big a fraple but I was wrong.

My girl used to be the same way. Then I got her into vaping so she doesn't care anymore. She never smoked so she doesn't do nic but she likes it.

First when I got into building she was like "don't blow us up" lol then when I was cloud chasing she's like "this is bad for our bunnies " hahaha now she vapes and couldn't care less lol

Thanks bro, I got lucky as hell with my girl (finally after a decade of dealing with slutty dumb dumbs) , she's a total gamer lol which makes my life super cheap and easy lol I'll play piano she'll listen I'll build coils or dj or make music she'll be on Xbox lol

And "going back to cigs" seems to shut everyone up which is great hahaha

Tom - nice build dude :thumb:

What do you mean slip? I've had an SS goon for a while now, but I recently had a beautiful Ti Goon gifted to me.

Same coil, just before pulsing.

Tom you have those aliens intentionally spaced like that?
Nope, it was just the first time I tried a 40g interlock. I made a second set with 10ply .4/28g frames and the spacing came out much closer. But it looks good & performs pretty well spaced apart too.

And naw Slip, the Ti Goon comes with 2 sets of posts and screws, raw Ti like the rest of the Atty and anodized blue posts/screws.

Got the ijoy limitless plus today :D

while the wick was dry I cut it flush with the underside of the deck.

Then after wetting the wick and screwing on the outer barrel I used my tweezers to create gaps for air to breath, the wicks always keep up.
