Have you done a dry wick test? Fire it for a while with a brand new, completely dry piece of cotton or rayon in the coil?

for what its worth my prediction is that it will burn with temp set at any reasonable value for Ti! Lets see!
Tell me about it. I bet yours didnt have the post holes point in the wrong direction (ie straight back-fron instead of sideways as it should be - yes it is a clone). Ended up using the screw tops ...lol! Worked ok in the end but tricky!
pretty tasty, vertical is the best way to go, but being myself i went horizontal with 30 ga nichrome80, if i remember 6 wraps dual on a 3/32 bit....it's a tough build but these kind of builds are challenging, the small deck gives a good flavor...one thing i really did not like are the off-set air-holes so your coils have to be placed just rite, i have mine on my Sig Mini.
bought this atty and built it w/5wraps (single coil) of 30ga G1 Ti on my 3/32 bit, 2 strands twisted in my ole trusty drill wicked w/rayon and was very surprised, a very warm and tasty vape on my IPV4....it shows .28 on the reading w/temp set at 340 @ 27 joules....apparently the small chamber really makes a difference at least imo....and it does NOT leak a drop...also used the far pos post to center my coil.

That looks like the venturi kayfun at angel cigs... I think they're like $4 or $5 there? (plus shipping)
it might look the same but read the reviews at AC....the MK is solid and screws together so no leaking what-so-ever you just have to be care-full not to block the air slits with too much wicking....it's been hitting great so far & i'm impressed w/it.
I'm not much of a dripper guy... Thank goodness. There is a new hotness dripper every couple of days! At least tanks have a few months of "life" before the next big thing. LOL
man your really missing out on some good vaping, you should give dripping a try.
1. I started with ESG alloy. It worked really well but didnt want to wait for shipping any more.
2. Gotta try SSV wire, do you know if it is surgical grade?
3. Also tried some Amazon TI wire, it was horrible-dirty as hell--industrial grade, wont do that again
So far Spider Silk titanium wire is what I have been plowing through: buddy and I went halves on a few pucks from Ebay. Works great on IPV4 but mostly use in on freakshow -great flavor- with fuhattan. The resistance seems to be even crazier with Spider Silk, dont know if it is because or the surgical grade or what.
Be careful with what you stick in your atty. @Duckle is the man to confirm this but only grades 1 to 4 are pure unalloyed titanium. Beta alloys or alike can have very nasty stuff in it which you certainly don't want to have leaching in your vape.
The main difference between the first 4 grades is oxygen content which also dictates the amount of titanium dioxide produced during temperature peaks. A grade 2 titanium coil will build up much more TiO2 than a grade 1 coil.

The ring Lord Has colored titanium, not sure of the grade but I think it's grade 5 (could be wrong).
if your gonna go w/RingLord stick with grade#1...just my 
hey Phone Guy, have you wrapped that Omerta yet, come on man do-it

No, I've been pulling out my last 4 hairs on my head playing with temp control lately. Today I received a sx mini s class to play with (it has no TC) and using kanthal for the first time in days, and there is no comparison for me. The heat and flavor of kanthal is superior to Ti or ni200 using TC. I wrapped a ni200 & kanthal (28g ni200 on 30g kanthal) and the TC still works which is neat, and the vape is better, but still not as good as straight kanthal (to me anyway). I saw a video of vape outlaw (?) showing off that twist (ni200 and kanthal)if your gonna go w/RingLord stick with grade#1...just my

I may just take a step away from TC for a while and try the omerta with kanthal, and just go back to kanthal period for a while because I'm so utterly disappointed in TC I can't even express it in words
yea i know what you mean when i want that good hit i pull out the Sig100, but the T.C. is a good thing imo and it's gonna take some practice to get it rite, once we figure out the learning curve i believe it will be just as good or better (hit/heat wise)...that's one of the reasons i been trying many different RDA's/wire and settings, the Mountian King has given me the hardest hit so far w/T.C. so that tells me that smaller chambered atty's might just be the ticket for peeps who want just a bit more, i wouldn't jump ship just yet.
edit: one more thing to add imo your never gonna get the satisfaction from a Tank type atty Vape w/T.C. compared to an RDA w/T.C. (if your lookin for that just a bit more)....

I took your advice and built to omerta. Kanthal, 0.6 ohms, dual 3mm 28g vertical Coils, this thing was hard to build and pinch the Coils... Even harder to wick. But I got it going. Plenty of air for me, not a cloud machine but intense flavor. The small chamber and domed cap and I may have over wicked it a little so I was drinking the juice too.... Then I realized a couple drops on top, 2-3 hits and re-drip.
that's a fine looking job, if you can build that you can build any RDA out there!
Pinching those Coils was a female dog! That's why they are slightly angled, it was the only way I could compress them.
I really like the dual airflow. From the top when you don't want that Insanely open draw, or from the sides and blow clouds. But seriously I was dripping like every 3 puffs. That's annoying. I'm used to tanks.
I got that from angel cigs, super super cheap. That IMHO is a pretty decent little dripper. I'm sure there's a better way to wick it to hold more juice but I had to romance that cotton in there
that's the way it is drip about 4 to 5 drops at a time in that small atty......get an RDA with a deep well and it's a bit different, i took one of my Tobh's and turned it up-side down with the air-holes way-up top & leave your coil legs a bit longer and pull the coil up to match the holes, wick that bad-boy and slap the chuff-top on and it will hold 25 drops or so, there's a will there is a way my bro.....
i always use Rayon in most atty's especially the ones that are harder to wick cause it lasts longer and has a higher burn point, plus Cotton turns to mush after a couple of days......when i first use fresh Rayon i take several pulls that i do not inhale to sorta mellow it out..... then it tastes just fine...
