Rayon Wick - Better Flow, Flavor, Longevity, and Nic Hit!! - Pt.2

[markfm]

Thanks for the info, I'll have to try a titanium 3mm like you did yours, I'm still in shock that a 22mm Atty has such a small deck, I guess it's the bottom plug in design of this deck, I've never had one like this. 2mm horizontal is not ideal for me, may try the vertical as well. I debated getting this or the small Griffin, but the features and quality made me go with the lite. I always thought I would like the aromamizer, but hated the goofy rubber band air controller.

The v2 is what I use most nights, they switched to a metal AFC. You can buy just the lower section, upgrade the Aromamizer v1 to a v2.

Supreme Lite is quite respectable for a single horizontal coil up to 3mm, I expect, or dual verticals. I avoid verticals due to liking a quick wick change.

Me too! I watched reviews & thought I was prepared for the size but when I took the deck out boy it's tiny!

That's how I felt when I got the Hannya Blitz. I was shocked at tiny the deck is. But it's postless, so there's actually more room to work with, compared to the Boreas.

I re-coiled, and wicked it a couple of days ago, but forgot to take pictures until I already had it juiced. The wick was trimmed pretty much like markfm did the ArmzrSup.

That is the rda?
I have the Hannya RDTA and the postless deck is actually a hindrance due to it's small size.

That's the Blitz tank (RDTA).

How do you mount a centered single coil on that deck? It could turn the Hannya into a daily driver.

 

[tejas]

I just inserted screwdriver, and bent the legs to center the coil. (if that makes sense)

Thanks!
Ill give it a try and see how it works out.

Lots of interesting good fun.

UPDATE (so I don't waste space with non-rayon related subject matter):

It's a sad, sad day. Samsung has issued a worldwide recall for the Galaxy Note 7. Apparently, ISIS has infiltrated the company and executed a nefarious plan to splode my 'merican face off while I'm trying to enjoy some wholesome VR entertainment. Should learn more later today.

​

No! Really? Since you're always joking, I can't always tell lol.

Quickie Aromamizer Lite build.

My standard coil, 2.5mm ID twisted 26awg kanthal, 5 wraps

I install on the upper post holes, trim the excess off the coil legs

Tight rayon wick, trim the length to match the outer edge of the base ring. My meter has the same diameter. Trim 30% off the top of the legs

Split the tails, so they're easier to put on top of the four small juice holes at the bottom of the deck

Stuff the wicks into the deck - paperclip or the end of the coil winder jig works well. Thoroughly wet the wick before putting the tank together

Turn the juice control (knurled ring just below the glass) all the way off before filling. When refilling I believe I've read to turn the tank upside down before turning it off. I didn't do this once, the tank dump was awesome

Nice work on the build pics, Brother! I may have to give a twisted build a try again soon... haven't done that in a long while.

 

[markfm]

Thanks, lighting wasn't great, but that's where I normally build things

re-wicked my serpent mini and merlin today, no leaks. finally getting the hang of this rayon thing and my tanks. Also re-wicked my little kennedy clone I use for tasting my recipes.

I am a huge fan of twisted SS316L now after trying it for the first time a few weeks ago. Triple twisted 28ga is the bees knees.

Hmmm... maybe I'll twist up two strands of 26ga SS316L... I don't have any 28ga.

I have dual twisted 26ga x 9 wraps in my dual coil griffin rockin at 0.21 ohms on my SDNA75 in TC mode, hits like a champ and the rayon is about a week old.

He's not kidding about the recall. Seems they can explode while charging.

 

[TrollDragon]

Yes indeed, a simple 6mm ID 22g 10 wrap on the Temple RDA.

I really need to get some 18g...

Well, nobody can prove ISIS is behind it, but the important thing is that Clapton is one hella prodigious plank spanker.

What are we talking here QM, 150w just to get things warmed up?

 

[Mactavish]

I'm fine with the airflow, though I'm not a high power, big cloud, vaper.

I'm pretty sure a 3 between the posts would fit fine.

2.5 mounted on the sides could be a pita if you want horizontal, vertical should fit. I like horizontal between the posts because I like to rewick every 50ml or so, and this setup makes it easy to do so.

Followup:
Aromamizer Lite RTA
3mm fits nicely, horizontal between the posts
26 gauge Titanium
10 wraps
48 ohms

Was much easier then I thought.
Wicked with rayon, tried something new, made the 40% cutoff, on the bottom of the wick instead of the top as we normally do. Doubt if I'll ever be able to tell if there is a difference. But I thought with the cutoff part being below the now stubby part of the rayon fibers, would act like a bit of a support to the waterfall effect of the longer too fibers that reach down into the juice well. Juice on the now underneath stubby fibers will be able to suck in and draw from the longer fibers laying over them. Mechanically, it's looks and is working, but again, not sure if there is anyway to know if it's any better then the top cut technique.

Vaping nice, no leaks so far, my first build on this new tank. I choose this tank over the Gemini by Vaperesso, as the design of both the JFC and AFC, and single coil plug and two sizes of tanks, gave this the edge in overall features.

Jeremy, have you played with this way kind of underneath style of wick cutting/trimming?

Nope it's only on a Cuboid. At 120W the coils fire up instantly and its hot enough for me. I am not a fan of the scorching vape, but I do like a little warmth.

Heat Flux is in the 130's at 120w. Def not hot.
