my apologies i thought i read you asking about single and fused claptons.

Its good to see you back at it man
And nice Fouliens you and Tom are knocking out 
I'll also be back at it soon once i get bored of playing the new call of duty black ops 3 zombie map
First off, Retro & Uncle tattoo; it's great to have you guys back here posting some builds! Good looks on them 4 core aliens.Its good to see you back at it man
I'll also be back at it soon once i get bored of playing the new call of duty black ops 3 zombie map
Let's get something settled. There are only 4 kinds of alien wraps. The number of cores or kind of cores doesn't matter.
1 - standard single wire alien wrap
2 - stitched alien wrap
3 - interlocking alien wrap
4 - stitched & interlocking alien wrap.
Any other term used in aliens is to simplify the coil as a whole.
E.g., fralien - framed staple alien.
Nobody here has invented anything new, including myself.
Whiteowl - temco wire is fine. It's what I started out building on. I still use some temco 24g. LV spools aren't much better. I've had multiple problems with their 1000' spools of 40gN80 bunching up on me around 500' in. Kaybee wire is cheap yeah, but I've heard awful things about it. If you message me I'll share my cheap wire source with you but I'm not posting it here. I've never had a problem with any of their spools and they're very cheap.
I work off the spool for claps/fuses/anything but tsuka's and aliens pretty much.
If you want some tips with that, shoot me a message. Don't follow an inflated ego on advise because that advise is warped by the need to please themselves by appearing to help others (while literally shooting down everyone around them).
And Slip - send me those messages haha. I need some hilarity in my life right now
Retro - Mod check:

You had to check before the black vt133 came it with the red limitlessP.
Oh well, the Fuchai isn't photo worthy.
I guess it would happen sooner or later...the part where you guys find out I'm wierd.
1. I dont like drippers
2. I'm on the pot
3. It takes more than one device to get the job done.
When my spools get here, and I still can't clapton I'll seek help.
I'm saving the onslaught of PMs when my staples bunch up or my aliens look like a kids slinky.

Everyone's got their own preferences on what they like to vape on. Doesn't make you weird at all. For the longest time I didn't like parallel boxes and now they're my favorite kind of mod. I used to like a tube or two and reg'd mods like my DNA Rolo. Now I'm deep into parallel boxes, rotation of 3 tubes, and one reg'd mod - my DNA Rolo.
After note - I poop while I vape all the time. Pretty sure everyone here does. If they say they don't they're probably lying.

I don't know much about mech mods. I'd love too though.
I just want to be able to fire a 0.9 ohm build.
I'm about to study on it.
In series you'd get double the voltage and in parallel you'd double the amperage and I have no idea how the ohm load affects the batteries. I also like how mechs often have mechanical switches instead of the clicky membrane switches that people like for some reason.
I want a mod with a real cherry mx blue switch.
Oh snap...
I'm quite sure you all know what this means.

A lot of parallel boxes have MOSFET regulated switches. Any box with a detonator style switch is most likely a MOSFET box. I prefer completely unregulated, like the Dos Equis v2 collection in the picture I posted up. Also like the Castigador/Tirador/Munequita boxes by EVE.
See if you can find a Hollow Point by Silverwolf Customs. I would tell you to look at their Warrior boxes but they're not made well at all imo.
Parallel = (theoretical) double amperage and double mAh. But rule of thumb is generally around 1.5x amperage of your batteries.
So if you're running VTC4's or HB6's that's 2x 30a CDR batteries so it's a theoretical 60a. In reality it's more around 45a.
Series = double voltage & I forget what else. I have a noisy cricket and it fires like a champ, but it's recommended you do NOT go below .4-.5Ω.
But the Hollow Point by SWC is all copper internals inside a delrin body with a brass 510. I got mine on sale for $99 at peakvapor a while back. Zero voltage drop from an inline meter. One of SWC's better build quality boxes & designs.

Series doubles voltage and nothing else.
Parallel doubles amperage available and capacity. This is just coming from a competitive car audio back ground...when I was subohming my amps!
What sort of mod are people using to fire 0.9 and 0.8 coils? Series or parallel?
Im thinking vtc4s and vtc5s are used in parallel but I don't really know.
I'd rather not find out on my own lol.
Here's a glow shot of the same 22/28.

To forde boy, sloppy -
Perfect video for you two. The rest of the hate crew that follows their stupid advice like sheep - open your eyes up, look at their builds. They're not all that. Slip made enough jokes about all of you (including forde boy that he hates so much) behind your back. And the great mighty Tom lead all of you in the wrong direction about the ribbon. They're basically trolling you.
Whiteowl and those few that don't hate for some idiotic reason - hit me up on IG @legitasfak via DMs. I'm out of this thread and off this forum.

The only thing I don't like is dubstep haha.
You're acting paranoid to be saying that "I hate you," when I never expressed such feelings. Where have I ever said I hate you or dislike you?
If you have these jokes about me from slip, why not show me privately instead of making a spectacle of yourself?
As for your trolling allegations, I'm not here to troll anyone. Just to post pictures and help people when I can. But it seems like you're projecting what you feel about me indirectly using Slip as your scapegoat.
Why you mad bro?

Real question owl, how is the Chuthlu v3 working for you? I love my v2 but have been eyeing the 3... Oh and the only weird thing I noted was that you don't like drippers. crazy talk jk, as Tom said, "Everyone's got their own preferences on what they like to vape on." Nice glow shot of the 22/28 clapton BTW. Is it a hot vape in the tank? I was playing around with some Anarchist wire 22 n80 last night in a failed attempt at a crazy series build.Alright, I know Im not exactly active all the time in this thread, as most of what I build these days are simple naked wire coils, as my build time is limited. But I am sick of coming here and seeing this back and forth BS argument. Tom and Slip have both been here for quite a while, they build functional coils, and are always more than willing to help a new builder like myself to gain more knowledge, and more tips and tricks to make more advanced coils easier. Ive seen slip in the past couple weeks post 2 very detailed and thorough tutorials to help a member out, I have seen Tom offer lots of advice. Both of these guys build nice, functional coils. Are they always perfect? No. But they have great attitudes, and are very welcoming and helpful to newcomers and don't attempt to act like they are the greatest person to ever touch a piece of Kanthal.
A lot of vaping is subjective, you may find that .5 is hardest to work with, while Tom finds .3 hardest to work with. This is a difference of opinion and build styles. Tom has had more luck and ease with things other than .3, and JustADude you have had better luck with things other than .5 as a beginner. What may work for you, doesn't work for others. Personally I agree with Tom, I have big clumsy hands, and for me stacking .5 and getting it prepped is much easier than doing the same with .3. While there are probably many other people who agree that working with .3 is easier for them to do.
What I have seen transpire over the past few weeks has truly been a .... show to say the least. Justadude you can build some great artistic coils, but your advice and willingness to help is just not there. You tell people minimum information, and take a very condescending tone with others when they do not follow exactly what you say. Sometimes you need to let people learn on their own and make their own mistakes, to find their way back to what you had advised, as was the case with Owl who has taken a step back lately to refine his skills, after you had already acted like an ...... to him when he didnt originally take what you had said. You have brought nothing but negative energy to this thread, which is something that has never occurred before here. It has always been postive conversation, and fantastic build photos. Since your arrival you have done nothing but attack others, and pick fights over details that at the end of the day are not important. I respect the fact that you are creative, and like to push boundaries with your coils, whether they be functional, or a show piece. I however have 0 respect for the way that you act about things. You are quick to argue, quick to target, and extremely condescending to members within this thread. You act like you are the greatest person to come through this thread, and the master coil builder, when in reality, you are good, but not the greatest like you act. Attitude tells a lot about a person, and to me it tells me that you are probably a fairly abrasive guy, and you can rub people the wrong way pretty easily, but that doesn't bug you much. You run by the beat of your own drum, and thats cool. But don't be a dick. All you do is create drama, you keep touting these messages you have, and that X is talking smack about Y, but yet never want to back it up. Leave the drama at the door, were discussing coils here, and thats it. A healthy discussion is one thing. To sit here and be an ....... about everything, and act like what you say is gospel makes the respect level anybody has for you drop significantly. This is a community built on sharing, and working with others, not a community to act like you are the greatest to walk the earth, and that nobody can do the builds you can.
Take it down a notch, and Im sure we can turn this thread around, and make it the place it was.

Hands down the best tank in my collection. The almost 20mm deck, massive post holes and m3.5 screws really set it apart from the rest.I'll raise my hand to vooping
But you have to fill the deck to get the flavor I like.
But I'm the type that will build as far as the tank will allow so that's not a problem.
And no, it doesn't make a super hot vape. I think since the coil has to dump all it's heat into the wrap, it doesn't get as hot as say a fused 26/36. At 90 watts the ramp up is minimal and the top end is warm and smooth.
I'm really blown away by the massive wrap size. I didn't think it would be the best build I've ever done.
Preach brotha! Amen on that. I do a lot of my posting in the coilporn thread as well. I've helped with pictorials with stacking & framing in the past as well like Slip has recently.
To add to what you're saying, I don't have any problems with .3 anymore, but I did find it the most difficult to stack cleanly & frame when I first started working with ribbon. Especially because I started out with N80 ribbon. Much more flimsy than kanthal.
And all of his drama didn't start here, it in fact started in the coilporn thread where he claimed to be the inventor of something called a stalien. I used the term "fralien" for framed staple alien & he bugged out. But do I have any ill will towards him? Not at all. But clearly I'm not liked by him and apparently others (I don't believe his claims).
I am curious to see whatever was said about me though, he could DM me and leave it out of the thread. I don't care who said what, whatever was said would probably make me laugh.
If anyone has a problem with me, just tell me. I'm not an unreasonable guy, I don't take things personally. And if anyone needs advice and thinks I can help DM me. I'm more than willing to help with any kind of builds.
But please, just don't play that awful awful dubstep music. It makes my head hurt & I work in the club/music industry. There are two kinds of dubstep. English dub which I'll use the artist "Skream" as an example as, and American dubstep which I'll use "Skrillex" as the example for. I prefer Skream's style of dub way more than the latter which to me is just a collection of random noises jumbled together in a blender.
American dubstep? No such thing.
Canadian and European? Yes.
American dubstep would be like African dubstep...no one wants to hear that.
Happy 420.

Right on. Most of the original posters here have helped, taken steps visually showing how to help make a coil.
All I see is no help from "dude" just critiques. Not everyone is on the same level as most.
Your coils are nice. Try and take a step by step tutorial and show us how it's done. So others can try and make it.

I couldn't have said it better myself... I thought I was the only one watching that show and I'm just stopping in to say hey to my people's...getting up at 4am is really kicking my rear, goodnight builder's.
4am, holy crap, why so early, are you a milk or postman?
