Hey ECF!,

I'm currently running dual 24 gauge 7 wrap 3mm 316 Stainless Steel coils in my Wismec RX200, at 80 Watts + 540 F. Its great and chucks the clouds!

Now for my requests,
  • Please suggest a good DUAL 18650 316 Stainless Steel TC mod? joyetech Cuboid?
  • Please suggest a good SINGLE 18650 316 Stainless Steel TC Mod? JoyeTech VTC Mini?
I'd like ones that are pocket friendly as i don't like taking my RX200 out of the house.

Dual...Cuboid or Istick 100W tc (101Vape has them for 29.99 No discount code)
Single... Vtc mini or ipv d3 (you don't need TC for SS wire btw)
I know, i just enjoy the vape in TC and the never a dry hit !

Furthermore, i figured those were my best options, the VTC Mini and the Cuboid. I hear different things about the Istick 100w. TC mod, regarding loose 510 connection and feels really cheap.

I've recently given up completely on Kanthal... Every build I've tried I've enjoyed it much better with 316L, I like to vape in the 0.3 range with Kanthal I couldn't get as much surface area as I wanted without going to .4-.5 ohm's same exact build with 316L gets me right to my sweet spot without the sacrifice.

Not sure if it's related but I've noticed my lung capacity has gone up since I made the switch in the last little while, this is after over a year with Kanthal builds....

Last build, phone dead so cant take a fresh pic 0.3 ohm...

Nice Build! I agree with your post, the 316 SS builds make flavor and vapor more enjoyable and surprisingly i don't seem to get as dehydrated? no more raspy / dry throat when i first wake up from a long night of vaping before bed.

I decided to go 316 SS only, even though I have 100 Ft. of 28,26,24,22 gauge Kanthal wire, i'm giving it to a friend who can't afford wire and is struggling using same coil builds for 2 months because of $$ shortage.

I love SS in temp control. Running 24 guage dual coils, 3mm's, at 0.20 on my Efusion Mini DNA 200 - 57 watts at 400 degrees on my Wotofo Sapor. I may I found my favorite wire but I just ordered and received 100 feet of, well, everything. I still have to do a build in titanium to see which will reign supreme though. This is my first time having ordered titanium wire so hopefully it's not a letdown.

    If you like the RX200, you may as well stay with Joyetech products. At least the interface, the setting of 'M' values for TCR will make it easier as you swap 'em out daily. And BTW, all Joyetech products have that same ....ty 510 connector as well, and they won't even honor your warranty if you use certain mods due to bit longer 510 screw (not that they'd honor your warranty anyway)
