Always a tough decision. Scampy departed humanely and with dignity. Travel well and run free, Scampy. You were loved and are missed ~~~

Sorry to hear that, I lost my kitty several years ago, I ended up not getting another one and decided to feed some strays. I still miss having one, but the gray kitty I call Gandalf, is a good one.

I am using the Classic Bridge which uses the other Aspire coils, the only drop in coils that I use. Every once in a while I will try a new one, but usually end up back to the classic. There was another one that I wanted to try that was similar to the vape shell called the Crossbow, but never did get one. Here is the link.
Crossbow MTL by SVT
I think it is designed for MTL, which the shell tried to do but failed.

I have a Crossbow. The two halves fall apart ... don't snap or otherwise attach together. I had a couple of issues with the crossbow. My small build left the wicking tails way WAY WAY long. So not only did it wick huge amounts of fuel, much MUCH MUCH more than my build needed ... it completely flooded whenever I took the top screw/tip holder out to remove the boro and clean condensation from around the boro and inside the BB whenever I refilled the boro. It just wouldn't stay tightly together in the boro without that top screw/tip holder in place and would completely flood every.single.time.I am using the Classic Bridge which uses the other Aspire coils, the only drop in coils that I use.

I do use the SVT Airflow Control Kit (fits under the boro with any bridge) and like it a lot but shipping cost (something like 30 or 40 dollars) is prohibitive if just the airflow kit is ordered. I got the airflow kit when I ordered the Crossbow so shipping wasn't quite as painful. But the Crossbow is just one of many RTA fails for me
EDIT: Have a VapeShell too ... FAIL
EDIT #2: They should have made something like a flat metal spring clip (or 2) to hold the halves of both the VapeShell and Crossbow securely together.

Wow I did not remember that you had bought one of these, don't remember your report on it. I think your coils are about the same as mine, so I am sure that it would not work for me either. I still think the the Vape shell could have been a good one, if they had just made the juice holes smaller, oh well back to my BVC coil.

@kas122461 ... my BB RTA fails. Steam Turners and the one next to it (can't remember the name and wick holes too big) came about the closest to working but I get MUCH better vape quality from a conventional RTA and without all the maintenance hassle and care required. I'd have been better off tossing a few hundred dollars in a box in the closet LOL.
Looks like a 1/4” NPT quick connect I use on my air compressor tools.@kas122461 ... my BB RTA fails.

I have the shell and the other one you are talking about, I think it was called the Racer. I kind of liked it, just took up to much space in the tank. I have not used it in a long time though, I had better luck with it than I did with the shell.

If I ever give one of those a chance again, it'll prolly be the Steam Turners one, but I've already tried a few times. All of them might work wonderfully for others, but not me (and my preferred build) LOL.
It is a hard thing to do, but it is a final kindness we can give to them, no matter how much pain we feel in so doing. RIP Scampy, remember the good times Frenchfry...
That’s what bone boxes are for. One day, perhaps years from now, those things will look good to you.
And the only reason I hang onto them. Ya never know
I think the head I was using did have a smaller juice hole, but I have not looked at it in a long time so I could be wrong.

Stumbled onto a Steely Dan vid earlier...remember waiting for the release of each album as a teen and dropping it on the turntable...they were my favorite band, each album was different, and oftentimes I'd have to play it a few times before "getting it". First listen was often like, WT heck...gotta dig out my pile of CD's and put some of their stuff in my car to listen to.
Was a particular Steely Dan favorite. Wasn't a song on "Can't Buy a Thrill" I didn't like. Album was released my sophomore year of college (1972) .
Justheard this Gem for the first time...
