LOL - I can't decide what to get.

I suggest one with a metal base. The pyrex tends to heat up and the metal base helps with that. I have been very happy with the Major League Vapers tips that I have. Not sure if any of this is helpful.

Yes it is. I'm a little concerned about how durable they are, but I'm going to give them a shot.
(Actually, it's me knocking my mods over. )

Do you have an ohm tester or a multimeter to check your builds for shorts?

I do have a multimeter. Been wrenching on cars for more years than I have been recycling them. It's always been one of those "must have" tools when trying to diagnose an electrical issue. Now it will have a new duty!

Good luck, and we are here to help.

On the Lemo: After studying how the coil is installed, remove the wick and throw it away. You don't know what or who has been in contact with that cotton they sent with it. Try different drill bits through that coil they built until you find one that is the same size. You don't want to go any larger, but you can go smaller if you want. Once you determine what size you want to use, plug that and your gauge of wire into the vaping calculator link Reign gave you. That will tell you how many wraps to get the Ohms you want. Remove the stock coil in the Lemo. It is not Kanthal. Once you install your own coil check it with an Ohms meter (or MVP or other regulated mod that can read the Ohms of your atomizer). You will need to stay above 1 Ohms on that iStick or it won't fire. Ohms can drop as much as 0.2 once a coil is fired a few times and settles in. I recommend you build no lower than 1.2 Ohms to make sure you stay above 1 Ohms.

I figured I would toss the cotton balls for sure, but hadn't thought about the coil. I will use it for sizing up my first home builds and then trash it.

Awesome, thanks for keeping your batteries (and you) safe and intact!

I dry burned and used it. It's the only pre made coil I've used. Did it just to see how it vaped. The thing was great, mine came out to 1.1 ohms...YMMV

I've knocked mine over several time with pyrex tips and they seem to be holding up pretty good. The only drawback is they show *gunk* easier than my others so you have to do a little more rinsing. But they make sure I keep my toppers nice and clean though so it's a good thing.

Any suggestions on a DT for the Cyclone?

 

[scratchtheweasel]

Quick update on my progress. I re-wicked with the same coil and used the method where the tube is fitted to the deck before priming - e.g. leaving the fresh wicks sticking out the top. Then I trimmed them to just a hair above the top of the tube and tucked them down on either side of the coil. From eyeball measurement this seems to be a lot more wick than I was using before. The whistle is almost completely eliminated with the additional cotton so that's cool.

I am currently running ACB in the Kayfun and it's really working for me. The tobacco flavor seems much more forward than it was in the Taifun. The ACB is definitely a nice match for the Kayfun.

Thanks for all your suggestions folks.

Chaplin by VA is good.

I'm looking at these too -
ARIA Drip Tips : Beyond Vape, Electronic Cigarettes, Premium Vaporizers, Premium Vaping Products
Innovape Drip Tips : Beyond Vape, Electronic Cigarettes, Premium Vaporizers, Premium Vaping Products
They have VA, but most are os.

I thought they were less prone to lip gunk?

Thanks Keith! (My eldest's name is Aria, everybody's been stealing the name since 1998...)

Not in my experience, I rinse mine at least once a day. Being clear any little bit of stuff that gets on them shows up big time.

Edit: It also might be cause I have cartoon lips but idk.

My favorites so far are the Drip tip Designz vase shaped tips, Innovape Silencer and Muffler, The VA Chaplin and the Stingray X tips. Don't over look the acrylic " Ming" vase style drip tips either. They are on the cheep but they deliver excellent flavors as well.

I have found that all drip tips tend to gunk up after a while especially when vaping with the morning cup.
