He said he's never cleaned an rda or any form of vaping gear. We tested this coil only on the MVP2. We tried a coil where the Kanthal was not pre-torched, and I claimed a metallic taste, and he thought that was the most insane conclusion in the world (pointing toward that he either has smoker's tongue or is just dumb), he even made fun of me when I said that if I can smell oil or something in my rda, I clean it! He was like "Well, you shouldn't be sniffing around at your RDA's!" That's stupid. I wasn't born yesterday. If something smells nasty, it's gonna taste nasty. I know that much. My other RDA took 6 q-tips to clean out, all being completely coated with black afterward. That's nasty. That doesn't taste good. I know what I'm talking about.
The fact that juice will simply boil on a coil without proper airflow is indeed the scientific factor that makes sense, but at 1.1ohms, even at 3.3V's, nothing should be boiling really. That's quite hot. A microcoil sure isn't going to "just boil" anything. They work on entirely different principal (more like an oven, baking something, instead of boiling it). That's why simply coils on replaceable heads don't work well for me and gunk up quick. The simple factor of having so few wraps, spaced apart, simply boils liquid, not vaporizing it. To someone who has smoker's tongue, this much flavor, that syrupy crap, might be exactly what penetrates their tongue. Not mine. I need VAPOR. Not boiled liquid.
Good way to know if your liquid is boiling or not, is how much vapor you get. If you get a lot of vapor, your juice isn't boiling. End of story. I'm sure this RDA would work a tad bit better if it didn't have two airholes, and if the airflow ring would work, as it does, as I know even one hole for this coil is too much at it's current diameter. I can just cover the hole with my finger and tell! It's not that hard. Lifting the coil MAY do something, but it probably won't. I can't even adjust this coil, it's way too tight in the frame, and he built it so large that it takes up every niche of room in the RDA. Even touching it would cause a short. Dude didn't know how to build, that ain't my fault.
I only said "He helped me build it." because I wanted to take some credit. Truth is, I barely even touched the thing. Dude built it. Set it up for me. It was the same experience, concerning flavor, that I got from his super-duper build (non-micro). That's what the dude prefers. He started vaping like 9 months ago. He smoked like two packs a day. I dunno what that does to the tongue, but I'm sure his tongue is more damaged than mine, simply because I was tasting pure metal on some of the Evods at the store, and he didn't when he tested them after I pointed it out, and either he was lying, or couldn't taste a pile of manure. I'm not trying to get smart with people, but saying this is all my fault just drives me over the edge. Impossible. I didn't even build the thing. I'm not an expert. I shoulda walked out happy, and I did not, just because dude wanted to hurry up and get home - they were closing, even though I got there two hours early, they had me wait forever just because they were doing interviews.
I once said that vapors on this forum attack anyone who doesn't act like their their own biggest idiot, and I certainly will refuse to act like that. I usually know exactly what I'm talking about, even if by some rare instance my terminology is incorrect. I don't enjoy people who argue with me because even if I'm wrong on terminology or a specific fact, my "grand finding" is always correct. And it always matches up perfectly with any experience any actually advanced, doing-this-for-years member knows all about.
Yes, the juice is rather boiling in this coil. It's because it's a simple coil. I could put a couple inches of Kanthal on my mod, in a big old loop (like an old-school TV antenna), dip the wire in a little pool of juice, and it'd probably give me just about the same flavor if I inhale the vapor. I can't do nothing about that because I requested this "8-coil modder guy" to help me build a micro-coil and he evaded my request to the point I had to go with the flow or else get kicked out of the store. I am not happy. Sure, microcoils are difficult. They require exact airflow and position to not taste harsh. Regular coils? You can pretty much do anything with em. I don't think the results would be any better or worse. They're going to vaporize whatever, in the capabilities they have.
I mean, the RDA tastes "ok". I've gotten this same taste when trying the juice in a Protank (but since the RDA and coil is clean, no bad tastes!). Just by principal, this is why it tastes the same - it's the same coil!
