ok ... from the connector = which part is the connector ... and electrodes? I actually do have a meter, but never know where things actually are. so, if I want to meter the connector, I would touch the leads from where to where. same question re: the electrodes. Sorry I am electrically-challenged, but learning!
Bejee.
set the meter to continuity, usually a speaker icon. you will know it is set right when you touch the meter prongs together and it chirps. then hold the meter prongs on each silver wire coming out of the top of the defcon should chirp. Then you hold one prong to center pin of the connector and the other to the connector threads.... it should chirp. if it chirps the first time but not the second then your coil is good and electrodes are separated from connector. if it doesn't chirp the first time coil is most likely shorting

Just wanted to THANK Youssefa for his extraordinary patience for giving me LIVE tech support on how to go about winding a coil. Though I failed to actually get it to work, I now know how to go about it. Just having someone there who knows what to do to walk me through the process was/is priceless... so of course I did not pay him!! BUT I might have 
Plus he is a really nice guy - so, thanks again Youssefa!

I just wanted to pop in and say chopper is THE MAN for doing this! I have never once met a manufacturer this willing to stand by their product. I got my first defcon used from another member of this thread. It has a little problem with the window leak and I've had a little trouble getting the hang of it because I'm completely new to rba's, so I pm'ed chopper to ask if I could pay to send it in for a tune up and a new wick and coil done the proper way so I can get used to how it should work so that when it's time to recoil and rewick I know what I'm shooting for. Chopper said, no money, just send it over so I can fix you up! Even though I am not the original buyer and he has never seen a penny of my own money, and with so much going on in his own life. What customer service! Chopper just made a lifetime customer out of me. I fully plan to buy a mini and an atom when I get the hang of this baby! You the man, chopper!
Okay some info for RBA noobs lol.I use a Smok Vmax mostly with my DC with a 3/4 wrap.Well I noticed Ive been getting dry hits which has never happened before to me.I always make my wick the exact same way every time and I get almost perfect wicking until now.So I tried a 5/6 wrap on the wick and its perfect vaping at 3.3-3.5.With my ProVari I vape at 4.0-4.3 and perfect.So if you use either one of these or another vari-volt device and you are getting dry hits.Then try the 5/6 wrap and see if it improves.If you are using just a 3.7 device try a 4/5 wrap and I bet it will improve the dry hits.I'm getting 2.0-2.2ohms with the 5/6 wrap on the ProVari.
I never have problems with dry hits. I do burn and water quench the whole wick 4 times and then dip in plain pg and burn with lighter 4 times. By the 4 pg burn it is wicking crazy fast. I have tried the 4/5 and it didn't raise my ohms above 1.6. The 3/4 comes off at 1.3 to 1.4. Depending on the juice I use I vary my voltage from 3.3 to 4.0. I had to get used to a TH that I never got from most of my juices. I only use 4mg nic.
are shipping notifications going out on the ones that are shipping or are they just magically appearing in your mail box? Just curious if I should keep a vigilant eye for it or if I'll get a ship notification. LOL
I got a shipping notice with confirmation # for my Mini DC, it's to be here today.
What's happened to me is that the little ring that goes on the outside of the body comes off every time I go to unscrew the top cap. Is this going to be a problem?
Just put a couple of drops of super glue on the ring and press back in and it won't come off again.Sometimes they just get loose as they are only press fitted in there.
Okay, I am a total noob and I have a couple of questions. I saw on post 843 where it said to wrap clockwise going up and then down but not to let it overlap. How is it possible to not overlap on the way down? Also is this 5 wraps total on the electrodes? Is it possible see to use a silica wick in this? (I have silica but no ss mesh). If so, what do I do? Last of all. Can anyone point me in the direction to Chopper's videos? I watched Youseffa's, but I have need something that shows more of how to set it up. Thank you in advance.
