My friend who is a new vaper ask me can we re-wick TFV8 Baby coils like your rta and do not buy new ones? And I replied “No!”. Next day I became curious to try that Idea and I did.
I didn’t search for any solution (if is any) and just tear apart one of my Q2 0.4ohm coils and it was quite simple setup in there. I didn’t think that It will work fine so I didn’t shot more photos and by the way it is just an experience and first attempt.
Why do that?
Because I love to tear apart everything and make something else out of it
What is new setup?
Coil: SS 316L 26ga(0.4mm), ø 3.5mm, 7 Wraps (spaced)
Wick: Japanese Organic Cotton, 10x60mm
What I removed from coil?
Metal connector and rubber insulator that hold wires and next wire and cotton around it, but I leave the sheet between core and body.
What was the process?
I removed I make coil around screw driver, wrap wick around it and insert it in to coil case, and then insert rubber insulator an connector in their place. One end of wire placed between body and insulator, and another one between insulator and connector.
Next?
Just prime that and filled the tank!
Result?
Good, not perfect, for next time I need to make a bigger diameter because draw is tight. Two days passed, two tank filling (Big Baby Beast) and no leaking yet. It read 0.69ohm and I vape it at 30W.
I don’t find this process a perfect and noticeable work but I think it worth to share result of my experience here
