Does "cable fed" mean that the coil is powered by way of wires rather than from traces in a PCB?

I'm sorry to be so unknowledgeable, but from a 40-year career in audio electronics I've seen too many impedance-based accidents to trust myself to wind my own coils. Thus, I haven't paid that much attention to tanks that don't accept factory built coils.


What Hittman said, they’re only to wick the juice up to the coils.
Building is not as hard as you might think. These folks taught me how, and I’m pretty sure they could teach anyone. Just say the word if you ever want to try.

    @hittman did they give you a list of things they want you to mention? Or just me because I’m new? Lol My first FM -or any manufacturer-review.

    Yes, I got it. Sometimes they send those and sometimes not. I haven’t read through it yet. When I get closer to starting to write the review then I’ll read it.

    They sent something like that for another review I did for them. I looked at it briefly and threw it in the garbage. To me it’s a little pushy.

    I've been through numerous RTA's but usually stuck with my RDA's ......until da da....the Dvarw :D

    FeV, Attaman, Expromizer to name but a few. My favourite RDA was the Mutation back in the day...but tastes change over time so I'm kind of boring these days. As long as I get good flavour and I like the draw/heat level I'm a happy chappy.

    Have a good one :wub:

    If I could go rebuildable, anybody can. :)

    I was helped along by many of the good people here and a big thank you to them. I had a few disasters. Coils that wouldn't fit, wicks that were either too big or too small.

    I soldiered on.

    Finally I bought, wait for it, the Brunhilde MTL tank. Takes a 3.5mm coil and easy to wick. Almost goof proof. I did say almost.

    Anyway, if you're going to go rebuildable, be sure to have the right equipment. You need a meter, the right guage wire, and something that is the size of the coil you wish to wind.

    Good luck

    So, I've been thinking about picking up some more PCTG or Ultem Eclipse caps from Kent for my TM24 Pro-Series RDAs. Unfortunately, in the time since I placed my last order, his store seems to have gone the way of the dodo. All was not lost though, since whilst consulting the Google and whatnot, I stumbled upon this guy on one of the sites -

    Pretty cool, and it's only 35 bucks. I've never heard of it before but how bad could it be? I am fond of how the deck looks...

    So yeah, I went searching for an Eclipse cap and ended up with a groovy new RDA. Win?

    Got this from Freemax to review. Haven’t heard of it but it looks nice, doesn’t it?

    Weird, delivered to the house on a Sunday.

    I took pictures of the ZZ1 today and will get working on that review tomorrow.

    Where will you be posting the review?

    Morning shinies ;)

    Anyway, if you're going to go rebuildable, be sure to have the right equipment. You need a meter, the right guage wire, and something that is the size of the coil you wish to wind.

    Any reliable regulated mod also works for an ohms reader. And if you have an IP67 rated mod, it's dunkable (technical term) when dry burning - which still hasn't lost the novelty factor for me :D
