I just approached it like I did kanthal.This was my first ss coil, so I haven't tried it off the roll yet . The stainless did still kick back on me a little more than kanthal but only .1 -.2 mm or so in diameter probably.

It's a biatch off the roll.

You can say that again. I was cleaning my SS430 with an alcohol swab and when I went off the end of it, it snapped back and poked into my finger. It actually drew blood. I'm more careful doing that now.

I don't heat mine up or anything. I just use it as it comes. It's pretty springy, but for some reason it stays wrapped tight on the mandrel. It doesn't seem to expand much if at all and I usually have to twist the mandrel back and forth to get it to fit back inside the coil.

I was looking at that last night, he seems to only visit one thread on the forum so must be too busy.

I looked at his last post with us and at the time I was talking about batteries and series or parallel. I don't know I think I might have turned a few people off. Oops, maybe

I gave him a shout out there so maybe he'll stop by and drop some of his great build pics and say hi.

King,

I don't know and I also asked that same question several months back.

I sure miss that guy and his input. Sure hope he is doing well. I would prefer to hear he just lost interest in e-cig forums than anything bad happened to him.

He used to come up with some of the best Atty mods I ever saw i.e. the raised lip around the air to the coil hole. As far as I know that was his invention using 12 Ga. ear-piercing needles. Now several Atty makers supply that as a standard feature.

Anyway I sure miss his input and friendly nature.

Sure hope your right about him dropping by Jeremy.

Around the time he disappeared I dropped him a couple of PMs with no success. He just went dark.

I remember the series vs parallel debates. I don't think you or anyone else overdid that debate. Certainly not for AMDTrucking that guys was an experimenter by birth and never seemed like the type to shy from new ideas.

And your right about his pictures. He hardly ever made a claim that he didn't back it up with EXCELLENT photos.

Nicely done Jeremy. Hoping Rayon will be my new cotton. I'm only on day 3 with rayon and it seems to be working similar to cotton as far as power handling goes eg.. in TC with my standard Ti build and temp settings my STmini is hovering around 30w. Flavor is good but vapor density is down a little compared to kgd.

To up the vapor density should I try thinning the tails a little more or heavier coil density or?

Did that help?
A picture would allow us to see what's going on if possible. It could be too tight in the coil or too loose .

I was thinking about it stopping at 30w, it could be another issue.

On thing I know is Rayon likes power. Maybe just a little bit more of a draw on it to stay ahead of the wicking.?
