So last week someone suggested trying 2 wicks interdependent of one another with a nonresistant wire between the coils on each wick. This morning I did just that and instead of wrapping the coil around a 24 ga wire to make the tube I used two bundles(combined strands) off a 1/8" fiberglass wick as a core with about a 1/4" of strands hanging out each end. I just used the standard length of coil 4.5" and cut it in half when I had finished wrapping it. To attach the coils I used silver wire and instead of using the tie method that they usually do for the IATTYs I used the silver connection beads. I used 32Ga Nichrome for each coil, 4 wraps on the + wick & 3 wraps on the Ground wick (Don't know that it matters). The coils are ran in series, Positive side coil to the NR wire... NR wire to Ground side coil. I've had it up and running for just over 3 hours. I am vaping off a Saber Touch 5V regulated mod right now... This thing is producing extremely well. The coils never glowed once, the vapor production is better than the looped wick and the flavor is exactly the same as the stainless wick design.
The only downside is that it took a bit of time to wrap two coils and attach them with the NR wire. It took me about 45 minutes to get the whole process done. But I am sure in the future that will not be the case.

Good question, I have not heard squat out of the company I sent it to for a quote. Will check with them this week.

Hey Dan, I looked at the GenisisLV's manual and noticed that on the LV the mesh diameter is between 2mm-2.3mm. G-tank's is much smaller than 2mm I think so what's the G-tank-US gonna be like?
Same as the original G-Tank 1.6mm
Dan
I found that when i eased the hole in the peek to 2 mm on the G Tank It improved the vape experience JMO
OK before I begin, I will not do a co-op on this. Period! This is just to show you what can be done. I had a user ask me if I could make a smaller G-Tank. Well I thought, this should be a challenge, so I designed it in a CAD program and thought, this is do able.
So here was the concept. Micro-G:
10mm x 63.4mm, five SS parts and 1 brass part
So I started with the bottom and worked my way up making the parts, here is part #1 and part #2 next to the original G-Tank
Kinda looks like a 510 to 801 adapter when put together
This was the tricky part, part #3 This little sucker required threading and precise drilling.
First three parts assembled on an ego
Part #4 and #5, the tank and the cover went a lot faster and I could see it coming together.
Fully assembled next to a 510 atty
Ok now that all the pieces were made I still had to drill out the engine electrical connections and insert the coil and SS wick. I used a 1/8” SS 0-80 screw for the neg, and a sewing needle for the pos post
Here is the wick poking out of the top piece after testing the coil
Well how does it work you may ask…
Like a micro champ!
The tank holds .8ml of juice and last for about 30 puffs. As I said this was a “can I make it project” I have no intention of doing a co-op or producing these.
Now if someone wants to run a co-op on these, I will be more than happy to send you all of the .ems (e-machine shop) files to make the order. Me personally I think it is too small and does not last long enough for my taste. I think the total cost to be produce by emachine shop was 20.00 based on 200 units.
So again NO I will not do a co-op LOL
I hope you have enjoyed my little show

That's a BEAUTIFUL little thing, but you are right, it's to small. i love more amount of e-liq.
Thanks for share.
Thanks for share.
dan that is a beautiful thing there. only thing i would have done different is make it longer more like a xl carto - then it would hold a bunch more juice. and too bad you cant make it draw through the bottom connecter - that would be cool on a lil auto batt lol
Jumping subject,
Here is my idea for solving the T-Tank leakage problem:
Well what do yall think?
It is just a 7/64" extension built in and will not impede normal tank operations. The wick will be centered in the PTFE high temp insert so it will not touch the T-tank sealing hole. This will ensure that there will be no leaking from the T-tank.

I'm in for 2 g tanks if there's still spots open! Great work dan on the improvements, very exciting watching the whole process.
Edit: saw ppl putting down amounts so thought it was time, then I read back and see nothing was mentioned regarding

I will have to try this next. I haven't had to mess with the ones I wired. Looks easier. Love the dual coil sgv3 vapor. I bet its awesomeness @5v
LOL, looks like I am pukin cotton balls
LOLAnd here:

If anyone else wants to try there hand at making a micro-g, above is the link to the spec sheets.

Oh forgot to add in, ALL thread relief grooves are 0.042" wide by .017" deep
