The EXO performs well for me :thumb: It is easy to clean, rewick, and build on.

Although I will say that I have had 2 very messy refill mishaps in the last two days. I don't know what I did wrong those times...it's a mystery! juice all over my hands and dripping off the mod... And last night, it leaked from the airflow after refilling. I need to check the orings, I think :eek:

Try turning it upside down before opening the AFC to burp it. That usually works for me.

You will have to report back once you receive the Aromamizer Plus that may have been purchased. :) That seems to be one of the favorites of the SXMini crowd - a group that I hope to join after I convince my family I NEED an SXMini G Class for my birthday present in March.
The Plus is an excellent tank, I have three of them. :D

i had an EXO...we never got on. couldn't stop the leaks despite trying numerous wicking setups. gave up in the end.

I had problems with the 6ml extension tank but not so much with the smaller 2ml. Maybe that's why the burping works.
 

Skunk!

The AVS Boaz arrived, a nice little squonkable RDA. It uses Torx T6 post screws and it's sporting the glow in the dark drip tip... ;)

The top cap does get quite hot with the 4mm 7 Wrap Framed Staples I chose as the free coil pack. They were not intended to be run in the Boaz, but I tossed a pair in it anyway for S&G's. :w00t:

I'll put a more civilized build in it tonight.

Thanks! The downside of the Aromamizer Plus is the available colors. I like gold and I like rainbow.
I've seen people take a torch to the SS version for a little rainbow color change and also putting the metal parts on a stove top to apply heat. Remove all o-rings and insulators first. ;)

The coloring doesn't last though, it will wear off with use.

You've done it now. Pam will empty her vape drawer torching everything that's not rainbow or gold.:lol:

John says that our blowtorch doesn't work. I want to know why it is still in the tool cabinet in the garage if it doesn't work. :rolleyes: Way to ruin my day.

There is a guy on the SXMini Brotherhood FB page who has been electroplating all of his stainless tanks (the Aromamizer Plus was one) in gold, and they look fabulous. Really! The problem is that it would cost close to $1000 to get all of the equipment to do a professional looking job. That ruined my day too. I plan to check around and see if any local jewelry makers would be willing to try gold electroplating a tank for a reasonable price.

You could try a bumper shop too. I had a guy I used to work with that got all kinds of crazy finishes put on his small bike parts that way.

might be worth the time to check check with motorcycle shops in your area to see who they use for powder coating and plating bike parts.

So I need to grab some N80 wire for the Pulse mod. I put in one of those woven things that came with the Zeus tank (reduced it to 4 wraps) and it's vaping quite nicely at 0.21Ω. I think those coils are N80.

I'm thinking 26, 24 and 22ga should cover it, Lightning Vapes stuff any good?
