The iHybrid APV - A fully Customizable Genesis

[jcwest]

Yeah my coil of choice is a 2/3 of 30g a1 kanthal.. depending on the wick size it will go from 0.7 - 1.2 ohms.. great coil for me.. but you can use 30g nichrome 60 and its like using 30g as far as "Springiness" but is 0.5 ohms per inch.. I have a 4/5 of it on my ZAP and its a 1.3 ohm coil.. pretty dang good for that many wraps.. so that is my second favorite coil

Good night my friend have a good sleep

Time to sleep see ya tomorrow all have a nice evening .

Well....looks like I am going to have to cull the herd, before I can bring in any more gear....according to the financial wizard and space usage engineer.

But what?!?!? I say.....

Draw names...and let them go ...is answer.

Luckily, I wasnt given a real time limit to abide by....but....will have to follow suit soon.

What poor unlucky soul's are going to be chosen ones to be banished from their happy family and home here?

Time for a real quick reality check as the way some of these discussions are going and with some of the new people in the thread some of the combinations being suggested are going to lead to a disaster.

The combinations of using low wraps of 28 or twisted 28 and the wrong battery are going to get someone really hurt. After reading the last 50-100 pages it's become pretty apparent that a lot of people don't know what they're playing with and the consequences of these experiments.

batteries, especially non IMR batteries that people keep mentioning do very bad things when over drawn. AW's may vent, Lipo based batteries blow up when stressed. If you don't understand constant battery amp draws and general battery stress don't do sub 1ohm coils.

This isn't a scare tactic. A lot of people would be extremely surprised how much damage a 700mah battery going thermal can do, especially a few inches from your face.

im using 6/7 wraps of 28 for 1.2 ohms, will probably take one wrap off (this is on a cobra)

You are sooo right. "Let's be careful out there!"

Seriously people are doing twisted 28?!???

I don't see the whole fascination with high watt vaping. Dude I just vaped 48.9 watts really lit up the room! Yeah and it probably tasted like chit also. Im perfectly content vaping around 10 watts and still being able to taste my juice.

There's a reason why VV & VW devices have amp limitations in the switches... To protect us from shorts, that can cause a battery to go thermal. When you run a .4 ohm coil, it's kind of like a short. Whenever you run a coil under 1 ohm, you are vaping at at least 17.5 watts on a freshly charged battery. At .7 ohms, it's 25.2 watts. Seriously? At .5 ohms, it's 35.3 watts. It's probably safer to smoke.

No fair trying to sneak out of it Russ! You know darned well the kiss was coming from Face!

Actually all 3 have promised him a kiss

Guilty on both counts

Nancy's post about not buying an HR, but sticking around to answer questions is what inspired my post. Every woman in this thread adds something to it in their own unique way, and makes it a better place for all of us.

Awww thanks K-man

What do you mean by 2/3 or 3/4 wraps?

I have a twisted 33 coil going with 4 wraps that ohms out to 1.3, pretty nice and getting better as it breaks in. I guess if I had one complaint it would be that it goes through juice like crazy, I've gone through 20mls of cinnamon strapple since Thursday.

the lowest number is the number of wraps on the back side, the highest is on the front side of the wick so like for a 3/4 you see 3 wraps on the back and 4 wraps on the front

I was at a vape meet yesterday, where a friend of mine set up a twisted 30 gauge coil @ 6.9 volts on a box mod- it was pushing 46.5 watts, lol!

My 4 wrap of 28 on the iHy is working just fine, and isn't as intense as I thought it would be. I haven't had a single problem with it yet, although I was lazy and never tested the ohms...I use a wide, solid wick so it's probably somewhere around .8-1 ohms.

Lots of folks here who are new to RBA's, though, Ninja. Just trying to make sure they are aware of the ramifications.

Exactly EZ...Great post!!!
Thit has been a great fear of mine with the sudden profound popularity of Geni's...and availabilty of real affordable ones......and just going by posts in several threads showing new vapers going straight from eGo/carto setup to rebuildables with apparently ZERO research on their own....

Skeery to say the least!!!!

Even as an electrician with 25+ years under my belt.....I am still abit leery every time I raise my gear to my mouth, knowing the potential energy store and possible failure at any given time, due to an unforseen problem.

Whats up Hybreeds. I am happy to report I should recieve a Gunmetal iHy later this week, and a Hell Raiser right around Christmas.

One question: Does the v2.1 gunmetal version have the updated switch design?

I have been really happy with all my other genny devices, I can't wait to get these iHhy's going.

One more thing... Go Seahawks!!

Absolutely, I wasn't trying to take away from what you all were saying- if anything, I guess it would be good to say that I steered clear of trying the near-50-watt box mod, lol!

My batt life really suffers with the 4 wrap, so I'm probably going up to a 5 or 6 wrap.

 

[Ginsu]

Anyone have any info when the Pre-Order will be available for this IHybrid .. Thanks in advance

 

[9ball_AJ]

I picked up this to top the HR:

Hopefully the colors meld well!!

It's in the queue after the Flower Power and 12-21-12 Editions. No definite date yet. Probably after the first of the year. BUT, you never know with Faceless. He moves pretty fast.

Agree 110%. I tried twisted and not for me. I use a single wire now and make danged sure it is well within the abilities of the battery for drawing current. I know a lot of folks have had success with these supremely low ohm coils, but it is not safe in the long run. The Law of averages is against ya doing it. Eventually it WILL happen that a battery will turn on you and when it does it truly is a disaster of epic proportions. I have seen the results of battery explosions, actual photos of the damage, twice and the scars will remain with those people for the rest of their lives. There are ways of getting an extremely pleasurable vape while decreasing the safety hazards that are already there just by the nature of what we are doing.

Thank you for the Reality check Ezkill
Sincerely;
Nate

I currently don't have a multimeter but will get one ASAP. For now what would be a safe setup to run 400g mesh, 30g kanthal, and 18350 battery be without blowing up my face. Would a 3/4 wrap be safe of should i step it up a level?

 

[debook]

Thanks Nancy!

It's a good idea to use the vape safe or one of the similar products in addition to the IMR cells. All it is is a PTC thermal fuse, most will trip at 5-6 amps of current and prevent the bad juju. Once the current is removed it will reset and work again. They are cheap and provide a second level of safety.
