My genuine Taifufun GT started leaking into the 510 connection of my mod, but not just any mod, my Taifun eye mod. That little tiny o-ring that's on the 510 adjusting screw of the TGT was missing. I replaced it and all seems well again. I had thought it was there for an insulator than a seal but I guess I was wrong.
A lot of the clones have that same problem. I'm sure it's more prevalent if you removed the air flow tube as well
well i think ive pushed my taifun pretty far this time...
first i have it drilled out to 1/8th on the intake...all tubes removed.
installed a dual coil, coils are on top of each other....28ga..5/64 drill bit.....8 wraps... .6ohm
using rayon as wicks....
man this thing is a beast!!!!!!
rayon is the key...i never would have tried this with cotton!
great vapor.....great flavor.........i was about to shelve it but i think it can stay in the rotation for awhile longer
ps.....oh and NO DRY HITS!!!!

Where does one get this rayon wick? Would like to try some... [emoji51]
Sent from Gallifrey using a Sonic Screwdriver via Tardis #5 :what:
My latest clone from angelcigs is of a slightly different design that all my others, which have come from all over the place. This one has narrower slits for the wicks. I would up tapering the cotton to get it to fit "right" and wick as easily as the rest of my GTs. Took about 2 minutes of extra fiddling, but it's working just as good as my others now.
But now I fully understand why some of you folks are dremmeling them out.

check out the rayon thread....cant miss it...its been pretty damn hot lately
sallys beauty supply....cellucotton
Got my Taifun GT clones in yesterday from fasttech and all I can say is wow. I don't know why I waited so long to get one. 1.3 ohm micro coil with rayon wick on my Provari. VAPE HEAVEN!!!!
Oh and it only took a week from placing the order to my mail box.

Latest coil build. This was the first time I tried a coil of this type (twisted 30ga) in a coil I have no idea what the name might be, but it is at .51Ω. Got the wick perfect the first time, flavor is good.
I was really aiming for higher resistance, but this was mostly built for a coil building contest. Of the three I submitted (the others are on a Stillare) this one prob won't place, but it is has been the one I have been asked about the most.
Previous build was this -

Can anyone share a vertical build + cotton wick guide hahah

Aaaand interestingly just spotted a new smoktech RSBT. Similar posts and wick set up, but with a full Pyrex tank + my favorite AFC set up.
Thumb screw is a pain tho

So i figured i would share how I wick my GT since theres so many questions about it. Mine never leaks doing it this way and wicks up just fine.(My air hole is also drilled out a little and air tube on the deck removed) Another tidbit of info ill leave here is when you take your airtube out raise that rubber insulator thing up just a little bit, just in case a little juice gets on the deck it doesnt automaticly flow down the airhole.
Step 1: wick as normal leaving the ends a little longer, it also helps to have a nice clean cut too.
Step 2: fold the cotton back over(put some juice on the wick first to help it stick) this way you double up cotton in the channel and leaves little nubs sticking out instead of stands that can get caught in the threads
now do the other side, put it back together and vape away

I read this on Saturday and walked in to a women's beauty saloon and asked for 3 feet of the cellucotton. I shave my head for they looked at me funny and asked who's hair I was going to do a perm on. I told them it was for my tank vaporizer & I was going to use it to wick a propylene glycol solution and they said, "Oh, OK." then handed me a strand. Wouldn't even accept money for it.

LOL. I was actually thinking of doing the same thing. But I went to Sallys instead.

went to a new local B&M today and asked the very nice owner to build a coil for me.
I have sort of been winging it with my Taifun. Love it a lot but am getting the feel of it just by hands on and watching video's. Thought I had a pretty good coil built and was using it but for some reason today it stopped working. I originally used 30 gauge and wrapped it maybe 6-7 times, came out at 2. ohms. and that was the best I could do at that time. Was sort of happy to get there after so many mistakes so I rocked that until today.
The first time I went in this shop the guy was building a coil and he was pretty nice so I felt comfortable meandering back in to ask for help.
This guy built me coil using 28 gauge and maybe 10-12 wraps-OMG what a difference. He also torched it and I did not torch mine. I paid close attention so hoping I can do this myself next time

Removed the doubled over traditionally wrapped 3mm silica wick/coil and replaced it with micro and rayon in my TGT.
I've just been using rayon for a few days now and am so pleased with how it worked in the things that I put cotton in that I stuck some in my TGT, so far so good, in a while I'll know if I'll continue using it in the tanks that I still use silica in.
So far I have rayon in 2 D-eagles, a TGT, a TGT dripper, a Cyclone, a mister silica and a v4 Fogger.

I was just reading on the rayon thread and curious how it worked in the TGT? Let us know how you like it in the long run.
