Not that I can see...feels external. How recently were the pin issues? I got this unit from him last week.
RTD vapor is good source, I use the xtar VP1 charger and AW 1600, Sony VTC 5 and LG HE batteries.
Pardon me while I hi-jack this thread temporarily...
My first build.. Well, it took 3 tries to get a coil I was happy with, but here it is.. (on a Taifun GT)
View attachment 373768
Nasty cotton taste... Cotton too tight? Not enough? any help appreciated.. Coil is testing @ .9ohm.... Device is A-Mod ZNA 30 @ 9 Watts for trial
Thank you all in advance!!!
No experience with that gear, if it was a BF Reo I'd say too thick a cotton and too long a tails on that wick.
I followed your advice, went thinner, trimmed the tails and I could hit it, but some minor flooding... added a thin piece on top to seal the edges a little more and it's hitting awesome... Thank you!!! So to avoid needing the top piece, I'll just have to find the happy medium on cotton thickness. Not sure if it was the tails or the thickness since I changed both at the same time, but at least it's working and I have a good in person visual representation of where I need to be in the future... Wakonda is hitting awesome @ 20watts right now!!!!
Thank you!!!
I have been havng issues building a good coil that will last lately - lots of hot legs. It was mentioned to me on the REO forums to try ordering kanthal from Temco instead of ebay to be sure it's good quality wire - which is on its way. In the meantime ive been experimenting with higher ohm coils. I heard somewhere that more wraps = less chance of hot legs. currently rocking a 1.3 ohm coil in one of my REOs - i am surprised by it. it is kicking some dry llama ayuss right now. Wakonda tastes different than at 1 ohm - not by a lot - but I may actually prefer it, and that's what surprises me. Also definitely prefer Banana Pudding around 1.2-1.3. Does anyone else out there like to run this kind of ohm? Seems like most everyone likes around 1 or below. My air holes are also drilled out to 1/16 inch right now.
