Hello,
I just made a new wick and coil for AB. Used 500 mesh and burned with torch before and after rolling. Then i quenched in water. I made the wick pretty thick walled. I really had to roll it alot to get it thin enough to fit the hole. It still had a hole I could fit a stick pin thru the middle. I think wick turned out great. It really pulls up the juice. Recovery time between puffs is almost instant.

I am not making the coils very good yet. Took two attempts and I am still not quite happy with how it turned out. I think this coil is too tight at the bottom and too loose at the top. 5 wraps and measures 1.5 ohms. Its not perfect but will do for now. vaping on some 100% vg Strawberry Granita. I am chain vaping and getting great flavor and great vapor. Plumes I tell you Plumes.

I have more expensive RBA's than the AB but I dont have anything better. The AB is rockin. Thanks Chopper, great job!!!!

Well i built my 1st new wick and coil combo i did that jackfrost method and added the cotton hybred to it also and BAM!!:headbang:This thing is a steam machine now,no dry hits,no shorts and more consistant ohms.If any one has not done it this way check it out flawless.For those that don't have a torch and have a gas stove the stove does the job no problem!!

I have to apologize for not following this thread daily or even weekly (full time student, full time job and full time family :) ). So please bear with me. I was just going through the last 30 or so pages looking for information on the Defcon mini since I ordered one a few months back and came across the link your site, (S & S MODS - Home - Broadway, VA) congratulations. Nice looking site and easy to navigate by the way.
Anyway could I ask for some clarification on the “Defcon-Mini Discontinued” statement? Are you planning to fulfill orders for which you have already accepted payment? I wasn't sure of the meaning because of the second sentence "This is do until I can get all orders made."


Thanks

Rowdy

Yes all orders that have been paid for will still be made and shipped.The simple truth is I fell behind on orders and I won't even try to insult anyone's intelligence by saying something other then the truth.Also I have revamped the DC mini into a DC mini V2 which so far after making and testing 4 of them for a few weeks are so far issue free.Good news is I'm almost done with all the backed up orders.
