Prometey-II : Twin Microcoil : Build PICTORIAL
Disassemble and Clean up the Atty:
Layout for work:
Microcoils Prepared:
28AWG Kanthal, 11 wraps on Toothpicks
Both Coils Twist-Joined:
Pre-Twisted the coils to each other for ease of mounting
Coils Mounted on the Deck:
Tip: Keep the coil head upwards, with the tails at the lower plane while mounting. This helps in correctly positioning the coil over the Base Air-Channel. See graphic
Below:
BUILD METERED:
A) DMM Zeroed (Internal Resistance Reading):
B) Coil Resistance Check:
Thus, the Final Coil Resistance works out to be
0.8Ω
Coils Test Fired:
Preparation of the Wick:
Wick tail Size:
Each wick is flush-cut at
one end close to the coil. The other (longer) end is the one which would touch the Fluff
Thus, there'd be two tail-ends holding up in U-shape, but only
one from each coil
Wicks Juiced Up:
Build Vapor Test:
Preparation of the Fluff:
Width =
20mm approx.
Length =
55mm approx.
Fluff rolled into the Tank:
Juicing the Fluff:
A fully loaded Tank:
Tip: Not too much, not too less. The top of the fluff should NOT be juicy, that's more ~ and will over-wick leading into gurgling vape with poor vapor. The top of the fluff should just
be moist.

Thoughts on the Coil Setup:
My favourite type of build has long been Microcoil & Cotton. Every atty of mine is setup this way. Tho designed for a single coil, given the deck space I couldn't help building duals on my Prometey-II! And man, did I do good! The Prometey-II behaves stupendously well with this build. Obviously duals will chug-out the smog - but this build is producing nice Flavour and TH as well. Every draw is reminiscent of actually "drinking" our flavoured liquid. Ah, this one is TASTY! In a scale of 1-10, where 10 is the best,
I'll rate the Prometey-II and this build as: Vapour -
8/10, TH -
8/10, Flavour -
9/10.
A nice li'l smooth RBA it is!
BOTTOMLINE:
Besides a stunner in looks - the Prometey-II is also a smart firer! Obviously it has taken hints from other similar attys - but has gone further to better that system. For
one, it is 22mm OD, as such has a way higher juice capacity. For
two, it's Titanium, that's pretty cool (yes, it makes it the lightest in town too)! For
three, the design incorporated maximum deck space, which makes our life much easier while working on it. For
four, lifted base air channel ~ come what may this atty is not going to leak. For
five, side air-hole ~ bring on the mods brothers - let it sit flush on whatever! Notwithstanding, the build, materials, machining, finish and detailing are
par excellence!
This one's a KEEPER!
---------------------------------------------------------
CAUTION: This being a sub-Ohm build it is for "advanced users" and definitely NOT RECOMMENDED for new vapers. It is also to be noted that all batteries cannot handle continuos excessive discharge. For sub-Ohming you must use a battery rated 10C or above, higher the better.
