I should have mentioned there's 3 o-rings. I think for adjusting air flow.

1 is larger. Maybe for a better seal In the tank.

I haven't used them. So outta sight, outta mind.

Tapatyped

I did not realize there were 0-Rings also, I would want spares of those as well. :)

OOOOO ! ! ! Nice choice and is just one of the one's I have on "My" Wish List along with the either the "Firebald" and/or "Blue Oyster Box" (really like the primary deeper colours . . . :facepalm:) . . . :thumbs:

BTW: RTDVapor/"Randy" has come through again . . . I was able to send back the out of spec Black Protected batteries and he exchanged them for the regular "Red" AW batteries with no problem, only had to pay for shipping to return them original purchase . . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

Hope you all had a wonderful New Years with your family and friends. I enjoyed my time with the family and toasting in the New Year with some sparkling apple cider. Then got a huge surprise I didn't expect. I will have to take pics later on. Maybe this means my family and I will have a better year.

I finally got to the point where I had to refill the tank with the Sophia V2 in it today, so I drained the tank, and rewicked the coil. (which is a ugly looking coil) I checked the OHMS on a Provari, and it was about the same, there was one small drop of liquid on the post, not enough to worry about though. It looks like if I could get better a building coils on this thing it will work fine, I still want to get 1 or 2 of those Uno things to try though. :)

I received the Uno today. It's very easy to build on. Very airy for me,even with both of the small 'o' rings around the center pin. I'm wondering where the larger 'o' ring goes.
Any ideas?

Sorry I have no idea about the 0-rings, but a quick fix to control the air flow, try scotch tape over a few of the air holes in the BB. :)
Or you could just put your finger over them.

Congrats.

Pretty sure it replaces the o-ring in the bottom of the tank.

Hey all.

Sorry I've been away: life an' stuff. Figured I should check in again
Good to see ya hun!!! Welcome back!!

Kas, do you wrap the coils around a screwdriver or something? Have you tried the coil master version 3? It's wonderful for making really nice coils! Thread a wire through a hole and twist a knob! There's just a tiny learning curve in knowing how much pressure or actually lack thereof that you use when turning the knob.

I have never tried any of those, I have always wondered about them though. I pretty much always build all my coils the same way on everything, 5/64" drill bit. For years I have used 30 GA Kanthal, and shoot for a 2 to 2.2 OHM coil on everything. this Sophia V2 is just very weird to build on, I really have no problem making the coils by hand, it is just the way the coil mounts that is so hard, it is hard to describe if you have not seen one. I don't have any pics, because I don't want to show how bad this coil looks. :blush: I saw a pic of another build that looked better that mine a few days ago, that might work better. They had the coil legs come off the top of the coil rather than the bottom, the way I was trying to do it. It looked like it might be easier to work with that way. I stole these pics from Billie, so I can show you what I am talking about, mine look no where near this nice after installing them.
