Perfect setup although I was thinking about get the smaller NRG tank since I already have GT coils. Whocoils does the Veco use? I hate spending money on coils lol!

I only know of the one NRG, and it’s not smaller. I don’t remember seeing anything about veco using other coils, but theirs are so good, I wouldn’t sub them anyway. Pretty sure I’ve seen subs for both NRG and Cascade though.

The Veco uses EUC coils, very cost effective. Not the easiest to find, but you can order from Vaporesso. I have one which is currently in storage, but I'm thinking of mixing up some NicSalts juice for it since it is a restrictive draw. I've used the ceramic coils and it is a very nice tank.

yeah been wanting one since the were first released. always wanted something with dual 20700s to take advantage of the pile i've got from my mechs.

What mod are you talking about that uses dual 20700's?
I have a few 20700's.

Some guy on Reddit did a tear-down and testing on the Squeeze and had it hitting at 74.5 Watts on a fully charged VTC5A.

I've been building as if I had a 12A battery all this time, thinking anything bigger or lower would be a waste. I probably still will, but I have some space in my rotation to experiment.
I like a high mass low ohm coil in my single coil attys. They seem to perform much better than a dual coil with the same resistance. These new coils fire instantly and have so much surface area. It is .25 ohms and produces tons of vapor. I think it is a 4 core FC. It is really wide but flat. It has a higher resistance than the Aliens i was using for a while but fire almost instantly and hit harder. I really like these coils. I want a spool of this wire. I am thinking of getting a Squeeze again now. I really like how small they are.

That just means the squeeze doesn't limit the power, it doesn't mean it's designed to deliver 70W+ on a daily basis. There could be components in it that don't tolerate that kind of heating for very long (I haven't seen the innards of that thing so I can't tell for sure that's the case).
50W is what the manufacturer recommends.

The reddit guy posted some pics of the board, there are two AON 7428 N-channel mosfets for switching on board, those will most likely be the hottest components. They don't appear to have a heatsink.
There's a datasheet for those
http://www.aosmd.com/pdfs/datasheet/AON7428.pdf
but honestly I'm too lazy atm to dig out stuff from my uni time to remember how to calculate what power would require a heatsink to work safely and not let the smoke out at some point. I assume some 10 year old at eleaf did those calculations, added some kind of safety margin and set the safe operation at 50W. Probably 60W still would be fine but I wouldn't do above 70W for a prolonged time.

Not the easiest coils to find, I agree. I got some from eBay and some from fasttech. Some of each, regular and ceramic. I’ll use the regular ones because I have them, they’re not bad, but I prefer the ceramic.

nothing shiny, eh? a green luxotic nc isn't that shiny is it...? right?
$38.91 shipped. done.

Shucks, I was all excited! But, 20700s? I don't know about buying a new kind of battery.
I thought today was Saturday until about a minute ago. When you don’t work the days tend to blur together at times.
Looking forward to it.

The description of the Luxotic says 18650.
That may be due to the design of the mod to only take 18650 batteries

Pool guy came to check my heater. The gas line is too small, 1/2”, needs to be 1”. I don’t even know who to call... who does that? So no shiny stuff for me for a while. God knows how much that’s going to cost. I’m seriously so done with this house. 30 years of fixing stuff. I’m getting this gas line done, getting the doors replaced, and looking for property to build on.

    Morning shinies :D

    Saw my orthopaedic surgeon yesterday - he greeted me as 'that horrible ankle' ;)

    Gotta get the 2 plates & 14 screws removed via open surgery, which means an overnight stay in hospital. I was hoping it would be a minor local anaesthetic job, but its too complicated for that.

    Following that will be 2 weeks of sitting on my .... with my leg elevated.

    Frustrating as I've just gotten back to work and walking 1.5 miles a day. But long term wise I'll be in less pain and a lot better off.

    The one thing I'm glad about is no longer being a smoker. Just need some stealth vaping tips for the hospital ;)

    A licensed plumber does that in my neck of the woods.
