yes, i do like that set-up, and at 3.4v, should be good. for me personally, i like a little more wattage so i vape this at around 3.7 to like 4 volts.
Should I have used a thicker wire? (28 ga Kanthal) - getting too low Ohms

yea... its + or - on the batteries. I usually fully discharge 2 batteries a day. Will just start a 3rd as I get ready for bed.
not really liking all the battery swaps, but I do like the mini size compared to the 18650 sizes.
probably going to get the aftermarket extension so I can use the 18650's at home.
overall though.... its a pretty good device.

I got it to work for a bit....6 wraps did it. 1.5 ohms. But my top coil was getting hot spots due to it being to far away from the wick. Oh well back to the drawing board. Only my 2nd coil and got it to work fairly well.... each time Im learning a bit more 
I just got some 30awg kanthal, and I've been experimenting with it, for the last couple days. The DIDs have such large wick holes (3.5mm) that I wasn't happy with using my 32awg, which I use on smaller wicks, like in the Cobra or Bliss. I wanted to keep my ohms down below 2.0 on my Vamo or Provari, but I wanted more wraps than the 32awg would allow. I'm currently breaking in a 4 wrap, 30awg coil on a 1/8", 500 mesh wick, which ohmed out at 1.7, and so far, it's excellent.
After vaping 28g wire on mechanical mod....I will never go back to VV/VW devices. You get far better battery life with a mechanical mod no matter how you set up your atty. The vape is pretty damn consistent as well....no point in using a vv device. You just have to use good batteries like AW or Panasonic or MNKE...IMR batteries.
I have too much $$$ invested in VV and VW mods to change horses in mid stream now. I have about 12 of them.
this is very true, it is hard to beat a mechanical mod w/ 28g. but i will always have a nitch for my provar v-2.

dam, 12 mods? awesome!
Yeah, it's an addiction, I guess. 5 Provaris, 3 Vamos, 2 Sigelei ZMax, and 2 IMotions.
Oh, I have 2 of those too. I don't use them much, other than to pulse wicks. I also have a couple home made plastic boxes I built a couple years ago.
i never understood the reason for buying more then 1 of the same mods. I have 1 black provari mini, an orion v2.1, and an NGP touch. but the NGP doesn't even get used really. if i wasn't so picky with juice and had more then 1 all day vape id probably have more tho. i can see having 2 or 3 provaris with ZAPs on them, each with a different juice.. but dang that's a lot of loot.
thats the way i see it, after all this time i was lucky enough to find 3 all day juices (COV=kona creme & butterscotch and mount baker vapors caramel candy) thats it after almost a year of trying about a hundred juices. so i have basically 3 mods and 3 gennys, actually 4 gennys.
Since I've been making my own juice, I don't really have an 'all day' flavor. I have several that I'll alternate between throughout the day, depending on my mood. Sometimes I might feel like a strong tobacco, like a 555. Sometimes I might feel like a sweet type flavor. I'm forever fooling around with new ideas; some good, some not so good. I guess I have a dozen or so that I make repetitively, once I have the recipe the way I want it. By using various VV or VW devices, I can dial in the wattage for various juices. Each juice has it's own 'sweet spot'. It's why I don't think mechanicals are for me. If I were to change juice in an RBA, I'd have to change out the coil.
yes, i see what you are saying. like you said if you make your own, you might find that you will like them better, thus having a better variety. i would like to have more good flavors, i just havent found them. but with more flavors comes more mods.
I do not have the funds at the moment to get into DIY, but in about a month I will. and I plan to put ALL my patience and practice into making some delicious juices. I am extremely picky, and all I vape is rawrs banana cream pie. I do love mrsts bakery fried peanut butter and banana, and some other peanut butter juice she has, but her prices and wait time is just flat out ridiculous. I plan on enjoying vaping ALOT more once I master the art of DIY. lol i hope i have as much success as i expect i will.
cool buddy, let us know how it goes, at the moment i am doing these ceramic wicks, and loving the flavor compared to ss mesh. doing different set-up with the ceramic is keeping me buisy at the moment, but also i would like to give the diy ago as well
