I don’t remember what time I joined but I remember stumbling upon ecf when researching a vaping problem I had. Found the answer here and the rest is history!

2 questions:
Where's a good place to get these (they're discontinued)?
If you've used them, are they helpful? I'm thinking it would work better than a screwdriver for seating your coil...

@ChelsB When I log out your join date changes from 12/11 to 12/12
What date do you see under your avatar ?
(I think that 10:32pm I found might be Pacific time not Eastern time...so it would be 1:32am Eastern hence seeing the 12/12)
(it's been a long time since I've done this)

hey dancing.

I too had to change my way of being so I had to let all the grudges go.

I went through a very angry period. I felt like I was burning up from the inside. I had to learn forgiveness to survive! And, you're right! The people you forgive tend to suddenly no longer be in your life. Like magic!

Now I feel embarassed about all my stuff.

@tj99959 I am thinking of making the switch to silica. What is the best method for a mech with 30ga wire?

Yup. I have jigs aplenty..
screwdrivers, Coil Master V3 and V4, and more... and I alway reach for one of these first.

opinions vary.

just this morning I dipped my toe in another thread where a lady asked why vaping is safer than smoking.

I love the Tootle Puffer thread but sometimes you need to pitch in and help a newbie.

TJ, I am thinking of making the switch to silica. What is the best method for a mech with 30ga wire?

That would depend on the style of atomizer.
With something like a KF I think hollow Echowool would work best.
The build in that picture was a 5/6 wrap of 30ga around 4 strands on 0.8mm silica string (1.8 ohms)

Silica is not like cotton, so wrap around the silica. You will be met with major frustration if you try to wrap a coil & then install the silica wick. If you don't also wrap around something like a small paperclip, you will tend to "choke" the silica. However if the wraps are to loose around the silica, you will get "hot legs".

This is what my build looks like installed.

What's the benefit of silica again? I've only encountered it in those clear, see through (I think disposable) tanks and I absolutely hated those. It would be interesting if silica were useful in another application though, as I simply have no experience with it other than those tanks, and that was a while ago.

Thanks,

Anna

I did a search, and I can't find .8 mm hollow silica. Lowest I could find was 1.5. Yes, my rebuildables are all Kayfuns.

Anna i didn't like sillica either.

Hemp #2
Organic cotton #3

Thanks TwoBears, I am quite happy with Rayon so it's good to know that my initial thoughts about it were right.... if only for me.
