I'm Italian. RED pepper, thank you very much.
Sorry, I thought I read green somewhere.


Anyway, you OK?

And to stay on topic. I can't tell the difference between the two bridges. Except for the price of coils.

Guess which one I'm using the most.

What did I do wrong?
LOL! Absolutely NOTHING, gnees. I assure you on that.

And yeah, the two bridges are marvelously close, and quite possibly identical. I'll be milking my coil supply for years to come (knock wood) because of how much I enjoy them.

I am not going to say that it's been a success, but I've got a build in it, and have been vaping on it a little since last night.

The Delrin airflow wheel won't fit behind the glass tab on the Rev3 Boro, so it's a VERY airy draw...which makes for too cool of a vape for my taste.

29g 6/7 wraps, 1.7~ Ohm coil, and I actually had to move the dial on my Rev3 for the first time...all the way up to V (5 volts)...

Still too cool of a vape, but I started to get some flavor there...any higher and it won't make sense for battery life!

I don't want to go too much lower in resistance, because it might not be good for the amperage draw on the chipset, and I don't want to tax these little batteries.

I'm going to try again with a more intense flavor liquid...

Seems like firmly inserting the brass drip tip adapter forces the Insider down against the bottom of the tank, which just barely keeps the bottom sealed.

At least it fits! The Exocet can't say that.

Working though it may be, I'd still say this atty was purpose built for the Rev4.

Thanks, HB - this is great information. I'm not a fan of airy draws (MTL or restrictive DL is my style). How do you perform the actual coil building? There isn't a stand or anything is there and no way to test fire?

Just for clarity's sake, @Freedom2Vape , I only posted the link because of expressed interest here. I'm perfectly fine with my Billet Bridges, and have no plans to change.

Options - would still like to be able to rebuild, although the original (non-nautilus coils) bridge is still excellent!

The genius part of the Insider (and Exocet) is the 510 threaded bottom.

Take the airflow control ring off, and thread the device onto another mod.

I built it on my Provape Radius, and test fired it! Super easy!

This deck is probably the easiest thing I've ever built on.

Huh, maybe it's just because I have an older coil in the original bridge right now, but I'm getting more airflow out of the Nautilus and the draw is damn near perfect. Smack dab in the center of the goldilocks zone.

I think that we all have different sensitivities to things, and what's an apple to one may be an orange to another. The juices I'm using between them are VERY similar, which may also come into play (just guessing).

I know this might be stating the obvious but to get the best airflow from the little bridge coils make sure the holes in the pin are facing the side airholes.

To restrict airflow turn the pin hole facing from and back or use a bit of tape to close off one of the air holes in the box, or like DP mentioned cover airholes with finger while vaping.

Very true. There are a lot of variables at play in the vaping game, and everybody has their own quirks. The difference I noticed is not a lot, but it was noticeable for me. The juice I use is just 100 mg/mL nic in pg, diluted with vg. I very rarely add flavors anymore.

No, actually I hadn't thought about the alignment in the holes on the pin, so thank you.

I have such problems trying to post pictures from my iPhone. Above is the Steam Tuners Insider that arrived today. Very easy to build and nice flavor thus far.

...and looking particularly marvelous in that wonderful shade of orange (if I do say so myself). :thumbs:

Looks awesome, excited for my orange bb to arrive tomorrow. The insider is super easy to build. My first build I think i needed to put just a little of the wick on top of the channel cause when i opened the tank window and closed it, i would get a little leaking. Rewicked and hadn't had the issue again.

I did notice both times though that I would get a dry hit, which was really suprising since i use 70pg. it wasn't bad, letting it sit for a second and/or closing of the air and giving a pull fixed it. Have you had any issues with dry hits?

Wasn't sure if i needed to try a different build. Right now using 28 guage, 7/8 wrap, 2.5 mm coil, about 1.5 ohms.

EDIT: Tip looks awesome to, can't wait for them to get more in stock, blue or orange don't matter.

Still haven't been able to find an insider yet. I joined the fb group but I haven't seen a sale or list go up the last 2 weeks.
I'm still digging the Doggy. 26gauge 10 wraps on a 7/64 drill bit with mtl kit.
