Before we get to the good stuff... lets have small story...

So I think its safe to say I have a bit of a problem... I was so eagerly waiting on Sweetness, and had a small break from work, so I was home until about 3:10... the mail shows up anywhere between 3 and 4. So before heading back to work, I decided to take a "scenic" tour of my neighborhood... well I came across the mailman on the other side of my block... what a coincidence huh... :p well I let him know I had a package coming that I had to sign for, asked him if I could sign for it, that it was coming to my address, told him my address, he said no problem, signed for it, and took it to work. Horrible decision... Sweetness was just teasing me the whole time... why... because I left the 18650s at home (would have just taken the RM2 off of Precious and popped it on Sweetness... well torture...

Sadly the RM2 that came with Sweetness doesnt go in... luckily the one Precious has works, and the RM2 from Sweetness works on Precious, so no problems...

Anyway took me a bit to get him set up and rocking, but he is definitely ROCKING :evil:

And now... I give you...

SWEETNESS (Bare, he will look different eventually)

I did my first sub ohm coil to christen Sweetness

Its a nano coil... wrapped around the smallest sewing needle i could find... triple twisted 30 gauge kanthal... measured in at .756 ohms

and boy does it perform... so sweet, so much more flavor than the nano(I meant to say Micro, give you a guess what I was thinking about as I was typing)... i mean WOW... not a huge difference in vapor... comparable, there is more, but not outrageous, but the flavor... huge differences... one might call it

Legend... wait for it... dary LEGENDARY

(Sorry in a bit of a HIMYM mood)

Thank you Rob...

Sweetness is perfect... I am torn whether to customize him or not... I am perfectly satisfied with the way he is...

So Wicked!

Now excuse me while I disappear... :vapor:

B E A U T I F U L !!! Nice coil, too.

Many thanks... I twisted the 3 strands of 30 gauge sometime after ordering Sweetness, I knew I wanted to drop to a high Sub ohm build with the Grand since the 18650s have a higher amp limit... knew I could have made a build similar to this on Precious... but one step at a time... the difference from the 1 ohm micro to the .756 ohm nano is insane... dunno if its the triple twisted, the .25 ohms difference, the micro to the nano... but... wow... just wow...

I have a whole roll (100 feet) of 32 gauge wire that I use only when I'm wrapping higher ohm coils for my VV Grands. You have inspired me to experiment with twisted coils for my mechanicals. We'll see out they turn out....

its easiest with a drill to twist it... i use a drill and gerber... keep it tight... love the outcome... that coil nano at .756 goes from where you see it to just about the back of the rm2... it is no shorty... heats up within a second too... really love it...

btw the only real reason i have been using twisted is because i have probably close to 150 feet or more of 30 and its hard to justify to the mrs who has me do all the rebuilding getting more kanthal... soon though... gonna do it right... order 2 spools at a time... muahahaha...

Congrats! Im glad your very literal mailman stalking worked out well! :D

Sweetness is rather lovely!

Its a side effect of waiting due to paypal holding the funds forever... from the day Precious arrived I knew I wanted a grand... so second week of January... ordered on Vday... (stupid paypal) 10 days until scheduled arrival... i would like to think I am not the only one who would have done so... lol

Sweetness, huh. Very nice. I have never named a mod, but if I get the black & gold one, I may call him Terry, after Bradshaw.

The REOs are my only named mods... the Precious my amazing Mini, that I hold dearly... and Sweetness that is in honor of Walter... gonna do some work... play with some stickers, might see about engraving, but I am gonna take my time with it, because well... Sweetness is amazing now and I dont want to do anything I am going to regret later...

Sweetness is looking SWEET!

Thanks FB, now I just have to find what I want in the sizes I want... if only that car decal kiosk was still at the Post Exchange, always in the way until I want them there... then they are gone :facepalm:

Nice color combo! Congrats!

Thanks, just dont go getting the wrong idea if your from Cincinnati... :p the metallic blue was just too light

It looks boss right now Wicked. Congrats! Can't wait to see the final rendering.

It will be a while... gotta figure out what all I am going to do, then get everything, then I will hold it up and see how i like it... nothing goes on Sweetness until I am sure I want it on Sweetness! lol
