one leg of the coil glows a lot brighter than the rest of the coil. Microcoils are a lot less prone to it than regular builds. In a genesis atomiser they can be a real pain to adjust out until all the coil glows evenly.

But i have never heard it happen with an RM2

Hmmm don't know. I just tried to torch a piece of the eckowool and it will not catch fire alone. The juice is Boba's mixed with another juice that I have been using for quite awhile. The spring has not dropped on my Reo. And ohm's is reading 1.7 I have never seen one actually go into flame.

try torching a piece dipped in the juice?


i don't suppose you were drinking everclear when you made that coil? :)

OK so trying to narrow this down. The eckowool dry would not ignite when I put a lighter to it. I dipped a new piece of eckowool in to the juice bottle and lit it and it ignited. WOW that is scarry. Been using this ejuice for quite awhile. I mixed Boba's bounty with another ejuice that is zero nic with a 50pg/50vg. So can I determine it is the 50/50 mix? Is it even safe to use at all? I am presuming many people use the Boba's with there RM2's with no problem.

Still experimenting here trying to figure this out. I was wondering if it might have been some reaction of my juice with the eckowool. So I used my rolled cotton and dipped into my juice bottle and lite it and it flamed right up. So is it the juice? Is it safe to use??? This is scary. Can it catch on fire using this juice with my shorty carto's or on a clearomizer?

OK gonna try again. Here is a quick video of it. Does not take long for it to turn to an open flame.

If you get it got enuf long enuf it will burn. Keep it wet you'll be good.

2 inch piece of 2.5mm ekowool. dry end won't burn. end dipped in AVE BB burns like a candle. maybe Boba's has some alcohol base?


but from what little i know about all this, it does seem like Cheri's coil just has a hot spot that causes ignition. i would just rebuild a new one and see what happens...
