You could ask him on the ePipeMods thread. I think (although I'm not positive) as a supplier he can have two open threads in the Supplier sub-forum


~~~~~~~~
We've discussed it. I think he wanted to see what the demand for a B&M discussion thread was before using up his second thread.

I think I'm not ready for wire mesh yet. I got my trident & chi-you (clones) in today. Glad I had that coil building session with you guys, but might need a refresher course. I am just staring at then at the moment trying to figure out where to start. I have read that you should clean everything before you use it and don't even try to use the stock coil. Any thoughts?

Kinda wished I had gotten the stainless, the gold Chi-you had my little fingerprints all over it in seconds. It does look good with the gold trident. My army green VTR shipped right behind this order. I have some buyers remorse on the VTR. I love the color and functions but think it might be too big & heavy for me.

Hey, Marsh!

Yeah, you should definitely give any rebuildable atty a good wash. They often don't clean them after machining and the oil they use makes your vape taste like crap. Also, while the standard coils aren't always crap, you've got the skills to build a better one now.

If you decide the VTR's not for you let me know. I might be interested in it.

YAH! Don't it make you feel good. I have my trident soaking in alcohol right now, going to make my 1st single coil later. Took me a while to adjust the Chi-you for 18650 with protank II on top.

I've been playing with rebuildables for a couple of years now. Not sure why I was having such a hard time wrapping a coil last week. I did this one as a 6 wrap microcoil all squished together and it's shooting out freaking CLOUDS. Pure awesomeness.

The Trident probably doesn't have to soak for very long. I usually just give new attys a couple runs through my sonic cleaner and they're good to go.

I was in the middle of mixing my juices when the vape mail came, couldn't stop to play with my new toys. My ultrasonic cleaner bit the dust a few days ago. I am using one of those baby bottle steamers (not electric) until I can find a replacement. I was really surprised by my one of my mixes, Banana Pudding. The smell was just too good to resist so I vaped it immediatly. Been vaping that all evening in my Protank II, so good.

I like banana flavors. I just wrapped this this a few minutes ago and it is hitting pretty hard on the Chi You clone. Not quite as good as I wanted it to be, but it is no slouch.

Beautiful coils. I just did my 1st coil for the trident tonight, turned out 1.8 ohms. I am very new at this. Used cotton balls and soaked it with Afternoon Delight. Don't know if I can handle this. Might have to go to 0 nic. This Chi-you takes a LOT of fiddling with. I don't want to do sub ohms, just want more flavor. Be happy to give you the recipe for the Nana Pudding, it's good.

What are you using on your chi you? I'm beginning to like this trident. I changed the big drip tip for a smaller tip then closed up the air controller a bit (it was opened up all the way). Still a bit airy but much better.

Well, crap.
It's looking like I'm not going to make it up there tonight, at least not at a reasonable time. That sucks since I've got an RSST on order, and have no clue about rolling mesh and making this whole system work.

Bah.

Y'all have fun, and I'll see you there if I can. If not, there's always next week.

I made it. I got there around 5:30 and 316 was no worse than normal. Decent turn out for the genesis style tutorial. Saw a few new faces along with some people from the week before. I would say around 8-10 people showed up. It was a good time and it is always nice hanging out with fellow vapors.
