Thanks bce and fear - appreciate all your kind remarks - Q appreciate them too Im sure

I have decided I am going to try and score a microstick. If this happens I will make my mind up on spheroid or Aiolos. If I like it next will be this beauty. I will update when my obsession takes me further :)
I really appreciate you two sharing your passion for these works of art.

I clicked your photo-bucket link to this D.... you are freaking awesome man.

what a beautiful collection; and it isn't about volume of gear, having multiples of everything... its about quality and a real taste for value and fine pieces of workmanship in this industry.

hats off brother

Thank You Mr Q,
we can always count on you to do a thorough review and generous photo's... I just set up my second filler and used your specs. I use my Prometey 2 more than any other (my line up in order of preference lately: P2, Gryphon, BigBen drip tank mode, Origen1...)

I'm still hoping Alek will get his Achille's pre orders out soon.

One thing is for sure, if you do get an atomizer from him, its a keeper! don't let it go; you'll regret it.


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.

VAPE SATISFACTION:

First Vape:


Second Vape:


Third Vape:


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.

this is for a dual coil, which i haven't even tried, but if it were single coil, how do you get wick tail end/s to go up in a U shape?
Is it an upside down U or what?
I use cotton too...
I just kind of bunch up one side so its got to touch up there, but make sure there is tail going down to the base as well (because it will hold lots of juice at the base too)
 

want to quit

Oh and also, is the prometey 22mm or 21mm? Do I need a special ring to make it look flush with let's say a stingray?

Can you guys recommend some other devices that are small in 18650 mode and look flush?

I am super hyper right now as I did not expect this bad boy to be done that quickly.

And one last question!!! What filling material is best for the chamber? I saw someone use something better than cotton that you could cut and just slight into the chamber.

Man I can't even type I am that excited

He sends enough filler; i think its Sera wool but it works a trick!
