Thank you Fury83 and Dwcraig1.

Another question, for mechanical, do you guys go sub ohm single coil? Or do you recommend highlander dual coil? The problem I have right now is that for low resistant, it burn to fast and too hot with 32 gauge wires, if I keep the juice control norm, then I have burn taste but no leak. If I open the juice control wider, I have good vape, but it's leak. Is there a way to fix these issue?

Also, question for Dwcraig1, for the clear tank you have (Eu tank?) Can it take on cirtrus juice? Like passion fruit and lemon? I want a clear tub, but afraid my juice will crack them

Thanks,
Andy

See, my thing is this...

If the euphoria is the same length...but cost more and holds less juice...why even buy it?? I would rather have another MKB and full term for better performance and run time. I have an extra gg base waiting for the money to build up again to buy another MKB...hard to beat this set up really.

It's a penelope clone; penelope was meant for the Proteus (which hasn't been made) but it looks and works great on any 16/17mm mod. It *is* a bit impractical on a 22/23mm mod, but it's far lighter and holds almost 3ml. On a 14500 mod it makes an excellent pocket device, never leaks and holds enough juice to get me through a night out.

The term-c on a 22/23mm mod isn't exactly "pocket friendly".

RE: Term/Oddy clear tanks and tank cracking liquid, I have no experience with that type of juice but from what I'm to understand all available plastic tanks will crack.

Re: $30 cheaper, use 10OFF code at Stormy's, ($20 cheaper at DV then)
I'm thinking about getting another MKB from DV also instead of the GG from COV just so I don't have a heart attack with every scratch

So even with the clear tank from Kir Fanis, it would still crack for cirtrus juice?

For the MKB, if I am not waiting for the arrival of my ELA, I would go for it. That device looking pretty sharp...

I am interested in the Euphoria. The things I don't like about the Term-c is that it is to big and heavy, and every time I refilled it - it took 5 to 10 minutes of puffing on it till there was enough vacuum in the tank to keep it from gurgling.

I would buy a Penelope right now if new ones were available, but they are not. I am gonna wait to get this Euphoria after I hear hear some reviews about them. So let us know when you get it and how well it works.

Here's big and heavy
941390_612503822107179_1439484512_n.jpg

Terminator-C with GGTS base on MKB-TS
The mouthpiece is noticeably lower with the GGTS base. It's open about two turns in the picture.

I also put a GGTS base on my Short Term and of coarse it's mouthpiece is much lower too in the body which lets it hold noticeably more juice.

More likely than not Euforia will solve that as a Penelope is much more user friendly.

Do you need No-Resistance wire on the negative side when the channel for that side is metal?
I do my v2 Terms the same as v1's and that is to wrap the negative NR around the wick below the locking ring inside the base. I don't have enough wick in the channels to hold it tight enough in the v2's

I just wicked my V2 for the first time,actually my first silica wick,and first r/nr wick,and beginners luck I guess,cause went from a pile of parts to blowing clouds in maybe 10 miniuts.
So much easyier than stainless mesh and seems to work so much better.
30g silver wire and kanthal at about 1 ohm,1.1
I took my N lead and doubled it over a couple times in the channel and seem to have a fine ground.
As of yet no leaks even (20 min,lol)
Im using it with a ggts base and just the clear tank and no issue yet.
Is there a clear after market tank just a centemeter or so taller than the stock one?
This is by far he best vape Ive ever had.

I'm not sure if I'm showing off or not but here is the results of twisting up quite a few of 'em

32 gauge nickel and 32 gauge NiChrome

Dude! I wish mine look like that.... My twist is very bulky... Need to learn how to make nice like yours to fit in with my Killer705 :D

I have absolutely no complaints with mine. I did struggle with it one night (as Fury well knows lol), but since then I'm able to build and fill it in about five minutes. I've never had the "tank vacuum" issue on my term or the euphoria so I can't speak to that, but I can say I fill it, replace the cap and vape for a minute until it tastes slightly dry, then crack the juice control and adjust from there. Once it's open, it's happy vaping until it's time to refill. I'm using 3mm silica from SVC in the channels, with a double wick at the coil, about 1.5ohm. Vapes almost as well as the terminator, although the term is a bit less 'fussy' about the build.

Materials and machining-wise it's top notch, and looks great.
