~The Billet Box~ page 1559 continued...

Here is how I build mine:

1. On a 2.5mm bit I wrap 28g kanthal (26 is to thick so don't use it). I do 11 wraps which comes out to about 1.8'ish ohms for me.

2. Remove coil from the bit after wrapped and hold with tweezers. I fire up my handheld torch and heat the coil up applying slight pressure to the coil.

3. Put the bit back through the coil and insert the coil into the Uno base. The bit will help keep the coil in position. Run the rubber insulator over one leg and insert it into the base.

4. Pull both coil legs off to the side of the base and insert the pin.

5. Snip the coil legs as close to the base as you can

6. After assembled, remove the bit and use a screwdriver or something small to adjust the coils position so that it is centered in the Uno base.

7. Cotton it up. Use a lot of cotton and make it a tight fit in the coil.

8. Snip the cotton ends at the base. Leave a little extra outside the base and fluff the ends.

9. Adjust coil again and make sure it's centered in the base.

10. juice up the coil and the ends of the cotton.

11. Screw the top portion of the Uno on.

12. Check to make sure the cotton ends are completely covering the Uno slats. If not, you will get leaking.

13. Once satisfied the cotton ends are covering the Uno slats completely, insert into BB tank and vape away! :)

The Uno comes with 2 small orings to adjust the draw. I find that using one oring does little to nothing but that adding both of them does tighten it up to where it's a tad / wee bit more airy than say the BVC's are.
Thank you!:thumbs:

My boss is away for 12 days. So without any new installs, or updates. The company is running smoothly.

I'm bored. So.. Yes.:blink:

I feel, I'm getting into some of your minds.:shock:

Unrelated:

ProVape has closed their doors.

Dang! I just snagged a Radius and a Kabuki from their partnered juice site after reading this and before they are all gone...

Gonna try for another BB this weekend as well... The vape apocalypse is upon us...

I have 6 liters of premixed base in my freezer and am probably going to snag another 6 liters before April 1 when the new CA tax kicks in..

Last year the only mods I bought were Rev 3 BB's, because I love them. I just always thought that Provape was going to put up more of a fight and be around for longer. I could have bought several at the end of last year, but I started stocking up on flavorings and DIY supplies. Stupid me! :(

I did get a few final orders in to provape, Classic a Celtic, and 4 radius's. (2 from Creme De Vape) There is more that I would have liked to get though. After I recover from this, I will start trying for Rev 4 BB's.

Wow, bad news on Provape.... They were my first regulated mod :(

On a side note, go the new Odis doors and am very disappointed. The looks are great but the doors don't fit snug and the outer edges are sharp - real sharp. Oh well.........

YIKES!!!!

That's not good news...these things were the spark that made me want a Rev4...

What's going on in that top left corner?

Is THAT how loose the doors fit?

What a rip off! I'd ask for my money back toot-fricken-sweet.

They tout these things as a direct fit replacement...but from the looks of them, they're just flat panels, and don't have the same taper/curve that the factory ones do...

Sorry to read this, Rick. What about reselling on FB? Folks "X1" there faster than you can blink.

I love the G10 panels. I gave my kirinite ones to Kat, and haven't been tempted by any since. I LOVE some of the looks, but that G10 is about my favorite, feel and quality wise.

If DD ever more of those, I'd be IN.

I hope you can get a refund, or are able to resell them quickly and easily.

And she loves them, mucho! The Kirinites are delicate, and artsy, and elegant.

The G10s tho..... are something uniquely special, and took my heart.

My 1st ever F5 failure! I was at checkout in 6 seconds flat and no can haz.... What did they have 2 of each? SMH!

Oh well... Decided to give up and ordered another Radius before they are all gawn.. This will gib me 1 BB rev 4 (clear) and 3 Radius's (Red, Blue, Black)...

Also ordered 6 more liters of base juice so I will now haz 12 liters in da freezer and I'll probably snag another 4-6 liters next month before the CA taxes kick in. Think I am stocked and ready to rock! Was an expensive week for this kid!

2 new Radius's = $340
Kaubki = $90
Kayfun v5 =$110
6 liters of juice = $190
This, that and the other = $100
Total = $830'ish smack-a-roos in the last 3 days LOL

They did mention somewhere that this might be a small run. I believe, unless I'm mistaken, that they're gearing up for the DNA60s. They also made reference that larger batches of boros would be forthcoming (couple/few weeks?).

Hang tight, Raq. What you want will surely soon be yours. IF you still want it after the Radius purchase(s). :)

Oh I am sure I will keep trying to get one more.. With the vape'pocalypse looming it's better to be in overkill mode than not.

Something tells me this is all that's going to be left after the FDA dust settles and ahhhhh, ummmmm, NO THANKS!

I'm unfamiliar with the concept. :laugh:

:)

I've been slowly going at my stock level but have not been vaping much the last 6 months so it's taken a backseat..

Now with the CA tax hike looming for April 1, I kicked my juice stocking into high gear. That got me thinking about mods ect so I figured might as well stock up on them as well. The 2 Radius's on the way will stay in the box and won't even be touched until needed. If I can score another BB then the same will happen with it..

I need to score another RBA and stock up on coils just in case the FDA does that blockage crud again like they did back in 2010 (or was it 2011?) I had juice that was caught up in that fiasco..

Mid 2011, if my memory and sources serve me... I had stepped OUT by then, not back again until late 2011.
