I'm so happy to hear that! It should be here tomorrow, yay! It was VERY tough for me not to open the package with the mega that I mistakenly bought. But I stifled myself! They were great with the exchange!

Which pico did you get. The istick ? Or are you talking about the pico tank. This thread moves so fast I keep falling behind. :/. Sorry.

Now here's a tootle puffer setup. An odd looking one that vapes amazingly. Hah.

I just put a 1.6 ohm build in this and it too is doing great. Plus. So pretty.

Is anyone else really underwhelmed with the nautilus x? Saying it's a terrible vape seems almost complimentary. I don't get it. Wasn't it supposed to be great??.

Oooooooo spheroid. Very pretty. I must revisit mine as well. I just got lazy with mine.

If you own a spheroid you must try a 2.25 mm diameter 6 wrap (spine side, 7 front side) contact coil made with 31 gauge. It puts out a ridiculously dense flavorful and voluminous vape given the high resistance build. It's phenomenal how well that build works.

It still hasn't been delivered. Hopefully today
So what is it the istick pico or the pico atomizer made in Japan or wherever ?

I usually run the 510 spheroid like this. But a lot of time in 350 mode. Since I have the piccoloid combo I keep one with a lower build around 1-1.1 ohm since I can use larger. Arteries than the 14500. The 1.8 ohm build in the piccoloid lasts a full tank though and with higher mg juice is a very very rewarding vape. You'd be shocked at he output I get from s 1.8 build.

This idea you have to build at .5 or lower with 24-26 gauge wire to get vapor output is so far off the mark. People have forgotten how higher resistance builds with thin wire vape I think.

LOL I dont wind wire, I use exactly the same fasttech coils in everything, BVC recoils, nautilus recoils, CLR coils, cubis tanks, sophia's, spheroids, herons and wines. No fuss no decisions, I take 2 sec vapes. The coil has to be thin and fast or I am sucking eliquid

Bea: i refuse to charge batteries in my mod. Sometines Li-On batteries get hot or vent when charging.

For me i would rather tge battery go nuts in a $12 charger than ruin my mod. But thats just me.
True. That must be what I remember reading.

    For the last 2 weeks, I've been vaping on a kayfun with a 1.6 ohm 30 gauge coil, at a whopping 3.8 Volts// I just can't do the sub-ohm thing anymore...It wreaks havoc with my nose; dries it out inside and out. I'm still happy being a tootle puffer. Just upped the nic again.

    I think I must be in the minority, I actually like it. Seems I've read many posts though from people who were disappointed with it.

    Cool beans, a microstick [emoji5]. I picked up one for DW, she didn't like it but I've hung onto it. I've got it set up with a tfv4 mini, might switch to an Ammit.

    If you can, try and grab the MicroDrip that's made by the same people. it's one of my favorite rdas. I like it better than my spheroid. better flavor and much easier to build.

    Where does one find a shot glass big enough to soak in? And how many gallons of vodka would that take? :D

    I bought a shot glass at a thtift store. It was a wide .... glass like used in bars.I put the base upside down in the glass and tge bell cap in also upside-down and pour Vodka in glass till tge Vodka covers tge bell cap. It only takes about a shot to cover everything'.

    If a shot glass isnt big enough put the pieces in a glass and cover with Vodka.

    Early on, many on-board chargers (at least seemed to be) after-thoughts, low powered and prone to failure. So a legit concern!

    At this point, they seem to have worked the bugs out, so, imo, that's not a major concern with newer gear.

    But external chargers are, generally, a lot faster. And I can't think of anything faster than just swapping in a fresh battery and charging when convenient ;)

    I've been resisting buying one of those. Love the form factor. Keep hearing mixed reviews.

    My wife did like the vape from it, but the problem we had, is the coils don't keep up or last very long, I did the old trick of poking a pin in the wicking to help it wick better, but still lucky to get a week out of a coil.

    I admit she is using 60/40 juice, but the size of the wick holes, should have no problem with that juice.

    I have since bought her a Triton mini and she is using the 1.8ohm clapton coils in it, which have much smaller wick holes, and they are working great for her.

    Sounds like the cotton is packed too tight.
