Thank you!

This is the beginning of my vapocalypse stash of information. I'm no longer taking the availability of this information for granted.

I'm saving it offline as part of my stash.

I am the same. Now that I am rebuilding these I feel so much more secure. I knew there was a reason I kept all my dead coils. :p

All caught up after a few crazy days...

Acey, the DT looks absolutely AWESOME JAWESOME!

And a super duper CONGRATS to all who scored a rev 4 yesterday! :D

Vladimire, 26g is probably to thick and I don't even think Bret recommends using it. Me? I use 28g wrapped on a 2.5mm bit. 11 wraps comes out to about 1.8'ish OHMS..

I rebuild mine horizontal and use the same coils as for my Sophia. The mesh and rayon is used instead of cotton only because I don't like the taste of cotton.

I use the same trick one of the eleaf guys posted to get the case off. Screw the coil into a base of some sort. Turn a tank upside down and using the drip tip hollow, cover the coil...... Rock the tank back and forth and the case pops off.

The socket just covers the coil to protect the pin, then a quick smack with a mallet and the coil case is back on.

Happy belated Mom's day to all :)

Sorry everyone.....I haven't been able to catch up the last few posts :(

But I'm hoping everyone is well and congrats to all the new rev 4 owners :)

Having a slight problemo with the white r4 boro tank that came with my rev 4...

I've literally only used it one time, but it seems like the gasket is already loose :(

I found @Katdarling blog about the gasket fix, but it's still loose and doesn't stay on the track.

Used a toothpick and it still doesn't stay in place, when I try to slide the glass panel over it, some of it over hangs near the top of the tank, like it's stretched out....

it's bugging the crap outta me, but I'm so glad I picked up a black boro so all hope is not lost..

Any advice would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance to whomever responds...

I had some issues with the gasket on my white one, Acey, as did @Freedom2Vape (also white). I haven't resolved mine yet, but that's strictly due to laziness on my part. I'd send them a message - they'll take good care of you.

I liked only to show support. The only other advice I have is to carefully wash the gasket and let it dry completely. It shrinks slightly. Then when you follow Kats blog the addition of eliquid lube works better.

Thanks @Krishna, gonna do what you and Kat said and hope it shrinks back...

Already sent DD a message through the website, I'm sure he will help me out :) just sucks knowing that I can't have two different juices on rotation with the BB......maybe I should buy a third black boro....lol!!

That's exactly what I did (a 2nd black one), for that very reason. Hence, now I'm lazy about getting a new gasket for the while one. I should get off my...:censored:.

Good thinkin', Acey. And yes, do listen to me. I'm an expert on shrinkage. :blink:

Well I hope that everyone has got their shipping/tracking information. Then to now sit patiently or start running back and forth between the mailbox as you see the postman drive by. It's gonna be a long wait for me and I probably won't see it till next week. I do wish I could get a Ohman UNO along with one of his R4 hybrid tips. But I'm now beyond grounded for any new vape gear for quite awhile. Doubt any smooth talking will help.

("Quote from Kat Darling") Wanted to keep this going for all the see and do.
Meanwhile, in between B Box runs, tell your non-vaping friends about our struggle. Share your story, and enlist some vape-friendly soldiers .

Thanks for the thumbs up on the Uno, Bamz. We just might be getting a few, too. :)

And thank you, Bush. I keep watching EVERY SINGLE thing I can, and then try to make a determination of what might be the most impactful for my non-vaping friends.

I'm open to suggestion, sweetie hearts.

@Krisma

I am going to rebuild one of my BVC heads and I was wondering what gauge wire you use in yours. I have 30/27/28/26 gauge on hand.

And if anyone could answer this question. I ordered a few box's of 35mm 1.8ohm flange less cartos, want to make sure they will work in the BB.
