Well next time you head by a craft store, grab some. Like I said, also, you could grab some kanthal for $2 for 10 feet.. Not to shabby!

Man, I tell you what though.. This Phoenix RA is hitting really well with the stock coil/wick setup and about 16 drops of a 60/40 24mg liquid.. It's ALIIIVE! Can't wait to get some materials here and play some more!
Well I haven't. Nobody that would sell a small spool of it, anyway. Checked at a bunch or hobby stores and electronic stores, but turned up empty.
Well that stinks.
Well the next time you are in town, if you got time and want to test drive a vv gripper, Sam has them in stock
Yeah, I got word about that earlier. I need to get a hold of him again, too. He keeps trying to get in contact with me and I mean to call him back, but I end up forgetting, lol.
I also keep hearing that the Gripper is more PWM than DC, like the new LTs.. But I keep seeing them being read by a DMM. I really want one, but I almost don't want PWM in my PV.
That would be great.. I mean, I could already imagine how it vapes.. But that's about it. PB has the gripper review in queue, so I keep checking his site.
Ya I saw that, he says the display is much better than the LT....lol
It's all about the numbers from the oscilloscope now.. Just waiting, somewhat patiently..
Pitt's my hero....thanks man for doing that.
Looked at one...one screw is only half screwed in and at an very unsettling angle.
Hope its not crossthreaded. I'll deal with it...may be ok anyway.

Check to also see if the post underneath the 510 threading is tilted. If so, just re-align it. If not, just unscrew it and get er back in there. I almost want a pic of it..
No worries, man, Just glad everybody showed up today and not tomorrow. I am keeping my eyes open to more co-ops that might interest you guys, as well.
Well...neither one fired right off the bat. Thought the center pin wasn't making contact but it was.
The post with the goofy screw spins freely so when I try to tighten that screw it spins and wants to curl the wick around it.
Pulled wick out, removed coil and rewound with my 34 nichrome. Working...yea...not stellar but yea.
I think a rebuild on the other and hopefully pushing the post back in will fix that one.
Decent vapor and th, but the flavor is crisp and clear. I think with a little practice and a bit of fiddling with the air hole alignment and other tweaks that this will be awesome. Need to get new batts for the mm and get this cranked to big boy voltage.
An observation and a discovery.
The pics and vids make these appear larger than they are...much larger. The parts and working area are very tiny.
I discovered that I need a freestanding magnifying apparatus to do this properly.
1 of the 4 drip tips i have fit perfectly but it doesn't take much to ream the hole out to make the others fit.
It looks nice perched on the bullet.

Ok...had to go 6 even without a mm.
Hell yeah....this coil may not make it through the night, but for the first time in a long time I think I may have a box buzz. Could be low bloodsugar...I hope not...I want a box buzz.

I actually checked out one of those lit, free-hand magnifiers and there are a couple at Harbor Freight for cheap. Still can't wait to get my mesh and track down some 34 awg kanthal so I can grab both the 34 and the 32. I can get a crap load of 32 and still get 2.4-2.6 ohms, but that's with 5, 6 or 7 coils. Wouldn't mind keeping it to 4 or 5. If I can get this thing to slam home like a gennie, I am going to do some DID purchasing in the near future..
