man I've been playin with the AGA tonight must have done like 4 coils cant get it down below 1.6 ohms and for some reason with the 3 wrap I'm having issues wit the top leg glowing red hot I think I got it as best I could everything is even then put juice on that bad boy and POW freaking top leg glows like no other getting a little ...... at it! I might be running it to high in the volts who knows. It doesn't taste too bad no metal or nothing. I also may be looking to far into it, it's working why mess with it right? also I'm getting A LOT of miss fires could be the pin on the vamo? OH and one more thin I cant get the freaking top tight no matter what when I try to turn the cap to mess with air flow the wick and everything moves! ok I think I'm done ranting now.

What I do is I try to ensure the wick is pretty straight vertically, not leaning towards the center post to much cause you don't want it to touch. Sometimes it is easier to wrap your coils with your wick out of the AGA. I use a paperclip to roll my wicks, so I just insert the paperclip thru the wick and wrap my coil on the end. When you hook it up, set your Vamo on Volts, like 3.2 V or so. Check your ohm's see where you are at. If it is not to your liking, take a wrap off or add as needed then reconnect and check ohms. When you get it where you want then fire it (DRY, nothing on the wick). If you get a hot spot, get your jeweler screw driver and adjust your coils up and down and fire again on low V's. Keep doing this till all the coils burn evenly and light pretty much at the same time. Then turn up the voltage abit. 3.5, 3.7, etc. Once it fire's evenly with no hotspots, add your liquid to the tank, and put some on the wick. Then test fire and switch back to wattage or whatever you like. Best thing tho, work out your coils hotspots with a dry wick. Hotspots can sometimes mean you need to oxidize better also. Just takes some time and fiddling to get them going good sometimes. Good luck!!

Edit: Forgot to mention, don't wrap the coils to tight, you just want them to have a loose hold on the wick.

oh I know all that it was weird it's been the only time I've had the issue with just the top leg glowing (from wick to post) I just scraped the coil and did it over again I have a working 4 wrap at 1.7 ohm's still getting the miss fires ah oh well I'm just going to use that as a reason to get a mech mod lol.

 

[SpEcTReCHieF]

Now when you say "Mis-Fire" what do you mean? You are pushing the button and nothing happens? Do you have to turn it back on when this happens or are you getting low ohms or does it not read ohms on what is going on? Just curious....

 

[scabbytattoo]

just nothing happens I have to let go and re-press it for it to fire.

Tell folks up north. They might have a problem with their years when they essentially had no real winter. Climate in a state of change is characterized by chaotic, sometime bizarre weather ... flood, drought, heat waves and abnormal cold, key word, extreme. Two things to check out, both definitions. Weather and Climate, Ils ne sont pas une seule et même.. Warmest years on record

Ya reckon the data is falsified? Damned liberals.

Oh so it seems it may be just a button issue then? I haven't had any mis-fires at all with mine. The only time I have pressed mine and it didn't fire was when I had the protected batts in there and found out they were the culprit. Was shutting off the Vamo and I had to remove and replace the end batt cap to get it to turn on again.

 

[scabbytattoo]

ya it's more than likly the vamo I've dropped this thing so much it's still a wonder thats its still work right now

 

[scabbytattoo]

Wooo my pro tank should be here tomorrow!

Is the Protank you ordered made by Kanger. All I have ever used were vivi nova. So I don't know anything else.

 

[scabbytattoo]

Ya I had it -on preorder they aren't out yet. It's like a Nova but the coil is on the bottom and it's glass and metal.

Well that EVOD I got I have already had some leaking issues with so I will wait to see how this one works for you. Hopefully it will be good. and maybe add one to my wish list.

 

[scabbytattoo]

once they are out it'll be like 25.00 for them. not to bad.

You're drawing a nice picture in my head, here. I do miss the mountains dearly.

I got me a new scanner today. The old photo is pretty tattered. Hope it doesn't mess up the image you had.

 

[Bimini Twist]

Sweet! I'd have to dig around in shoe boxes for my last winter shots in the Rockies. My photos from backpacking in the Sierras & Rockies are long gone >:[

got pie crut and whipped cream. mixed them and its not too bad steeping will help for sure.

 

[SpEcTReCHieF]

That sounds pretty tasty there Scabby. Going to have to get me some good flavors here sometime.

 

[opal]

whipped cream is one of my all time faves (this from someone who started vaping in October of 12) it's not just the taste but how the vape feels. Not so much in a standard T3.. kinda makes it a cooler temp vape but T3 minis or clearos.. or nanos.. or cartos.. warm vape YUM
and it mixes with lots of stuff

 

[Bimini Twist]

So, I finally went to the FWB branch of Rollin EZ. They're just barely getting started with the vape stuff. The lady I talked to (forgot her name) seemed overwhelmed with the terminology but was very nice and seems eager to learn. While there, I could swear I saw Tobacco Sam pop his head in (from the back door) for 2 seconds! Coincidence or ...?

 

[Dusther]

Nope chances are you did see Sam there. He is helping her get setup.
