Oh it was probably me I was seeing talk about problems with your build and bad tastes and wondering about the doggystyle and then it was your juice.
It was probably pages ago, I was making a lame joke about like how when dogs bite humans they get fined and sued and stuff, and then the dog gets put to sleep.
It might have been funny at one point and with some judicious quoting but a joke is never good if you have to explain it.
So instead, I will quote the punchline to the worst joke my dad ever told and he told it repeatedly.
"So the guy put his hand up to his head firmly, and said, "I know, I use my kidneys."
I forget the exact setup but so as not to cause further confusion, some dude went walking past a mad house, I guess it would have been called back in my dad's age, and some crazy person was outside the crazy house and they have this long drawn out conversation and the walker was like, how'd you get out you seem so sane and intelligent, compared to other crazy people.
Punchline. Etc,.

Anna,
Many thanks for the replies.
As explained, over the years I have tried just about all combinations of wicking and coils at any and all wattages/temps, coil sizes from 2.0mm to 3.0mm. The point about using the squarish cotton in a round coil is also something that I have tried to obviate, by trying cotton balls as opposed to pads. Cant say there was any difference. The problem is certainly likely to be wicking in some way, but it eludes me. I just thought maybe as this problem had been mentioned before on this thread, that someone had found a solution. I did find that touching coils were not giving me very accurate TC, so I didn't pursue them.
Its maybe just one of the little mysteries of vaping, and I will live with it. When I get my Doggys, it will be interesting to see what happens then.
Many thanks again.

I feel your pain and have chimed in before on this issue. Always had horrendous popping on my spaced builds, irrespective of wicking method. But exactly the same build with contact coil has been fine. Maybe my cotton, using Muji and KGD cotton pads, I just don't know.
But you are not alone!
This is very strange. With my vaping I used to love the popping i got when I used cottons with them being loose in the coil. I just felt it gave me more flavor with my MTL vaping. I mostly use rayon now and that wick has to be tight in the coil. So I don't get that popping... Just a little crackling noise telling me it's cooking nicely.
You're very welcome Ken
First, your description of tight to the point of having to restrain the coil with your fingers using 28 gauge SS is how I always wick my coils. I consider that the best way to wick. I do think a lot of vapers put less cotton in their coils, but I do what works best for me for how I vape.
The build in the Doggy I'm vaping right now is 4/5 wraps spaced quite wide, 27 gauge SS, 3mm inside diameter reading 0.39 ohms on my Pico 75 and I'm vaping it at 14.5 watts. My juice is 100% PG and the Muji wick is very saturated. I find Muji vapes almost identical to KGD. If you are vaping high(er) VG juices that may make a difference in the popping compared to my setups.
When I first hit it, I get a couple of very quiet pops and then nothing but a hiss. I just turned up the watts to 15.5 and the pops get slightly louder, but I've stealth vaped that at work and the person 10 feet away from me didn't hear it, at least as far as I know
I don't consider the Doggy to be any quieter than average, so IMO if you are looking for a quieter atty I would advise you to look at something else. I accept popping as the sign of a well built and clean setup. As the coils become more gunked they get quieter. Back in the day when I vaped 50 watt builds and used less cotton in my coils and high VG juice, my vapes always popped quite loud and more often.
Hope that helps a bit and best of luck with it all!
You got it Anna ... couldn't have described it any better
Again, you got it, congrats!! Snugging the base down to the mod a bit more than normal helps a bit too, but if you can balance things the way you're doing it now that's great!
Oh gawd ... let's not go there
Where do you get 100% pg liquids? I haven't seen that in many years. I don't see many people vaping 100% pg these days. One of my liquids is 95% pg. The others are 80% pg. I hate anything lower. I can't vape high vg liquids.
Yeah I also use rayon now - forgot about that. Possibly why I don't pop anymore - tighter wicking.
LOVE the crackling noise - to the point where I feel hard done by if it's not there
The mod you posted above is awesome - what is it?
I make my own juices ricks. Most flavorings are in PG and my nic is 100% PG so it's easy. Ya, I doubt any commercial juices are all PG, most people like higher VG. There's not much difference between 80% and 100% PG, I just tried not adding that little bit of VG one day and never went back
I just ordered one of these. $12.99 when I signed in, Buy SXK Doggystyle V2 2K18 Style RTA Silver 22mm Rebuildable Atomizer
Joyetech eVic Primo Mini. One of my favorite mods.Yeah I also use rayon now - forgot about that. Possibly why I don't pop anymore - tighter wicking.

To be able to fill it 100% will be awesome.
I'd put the checkmark on the BUY button if they had the replacement tanks!
Soon, perhaps.
