Have had juice flow open anywhere between .75 and >3 turns. .75-1 turn seemed to be working . . . With the above mentioned set up. Started tasting burnt. Looked at it. Wick was dry. Am playing with wick length and girth. Trying to have length just touching deck and a bit of a reservoir up near the coil.

On 1900 to 0730 tonight, so won't be fooling with it anymore tonight. Can I post pics directly from my computer, or is hosting required?

No problems here at all. :)

And I remembered when I ordered at least, they were out of the metal of drip the top/fill cap piece.

So alas, I have the poly version.. It's not bad though!

That looks so good! I shall be looking out for when the drip tips are back in stock. It makes it slightly shorter too I think? Very, very nice :thumbs:

Yep - a little shorter.

Wish I got two. Now I need one for the KF4 as well. :)

May have solved my problem. Changed to a spaced coil. Cut wicks to edge of outer deck, tuck down lightly, leaving large resivoir wick area near coil. JFC open 2-2.5 turns. Been doing fine. Before, I was getting maybe 10 minutes befor a dry hit. Juice is 70% vg.

This works just great for me... just make sure the cotton just touches the juice holes and not stuffing too much in

On my last build I used my normal amount of cotton in the wick but decided to trim off about 30% off each tail (along the wick, not the length) after it was threaded through the coil. This resulted in thinner wicks going into the well. I get a noticeably more saturated vape...much more snap, crackle, and pop (which used to disappear after a tank or two).

Spaced coils are a bit more forgiving for sure because juice can flow a little easier and I believe a spaced coil isn't quite a hot but you should be able to run a tight coil just the same. I doubt the main reason for your previous dry hits was just going from tight to spaced, but more so either to much wick tails jammed into platform or not enough wicking material in the coil itself. Either way it's awesome you got it sorted and after a few times you will get consistent results. Awesome looking coil there my friend!

Same here bronze, in every tank I use with coil diameters above 2mm or so and higher, I always trim my tails, especially with rayon. I would say I trim about 1/4 to 1/3 of the original size then fluff the remaining.

@Bronze & @vapdivrr , I agree with you both; less is definitely more in this case. And Spaced Coils do in my opinion also deliver better Flavor, and that is where you want more material on your Wick through the Coil not on the Tails.
Enjoy :)

Definitely a noticeable difference. And yes, I learned this with 2.00+ coils. I have always used 2.00mm coils but decided to go with 2.4mm (using less wraps) on the mini because it is a narrower deck. After a few rewickings I decided to trim them down and glad I did.
