Trident and Omega RDA Builds, Tips, Pics

[evgeny131]

I am having a hard time with quad coils taking a long time to heat up....this is an example of my trident quad coil build using .5 ribbon, 0.3ohm...

share your tips and pics on successful builds of the trident and omega rda's...

what is quickest to heat up using simple 3mm ekowool builds? I am currently using dual coil .7ribbon 3 wraps on the trident, and 28awg 4 wraps on the omega...
please share other successful NON micro-coil builds- it is impossible to thread 3mm eko into a microcoil...

This is an excellent thread. I'm looking at getting a new dripper and have a hard time deciding which to go with because my concern is the how difficult the builds will be on the atty. I like the omega but I don't like having to wrap around the posts especially with ribbon.

it is impossible to wrap ribbon on the omega....the screws simply won't hold it down.....it slides right out, there is not enough surface area on the posts to even catch an edge.....
i am looking for solutions other than microcoils because i like using 3mm eko.....
the trident is one of the most comfortable set ups i have seen.....also air flow control is nice....but not necessary..

I'm happy w/ twisted 30 ga kanthal at 0.7 ohms. Cotton ball wick.

it really is too bad that its so hard to use ribbon in the omega.....i microcoil my kayfuns and thread 2mm eko through, i need to use my reserve of 3mm eko....haven't tried cotton yet.....maybe that's the answer im looking for, even though ekowool is damn good....

 

[evgeny131]

current set-ups: Trident is really smooth, Omega is a bit harsh.....working on airflow direction as a possible reason?
Trident 3mm folded ekowool, 0.7 ribbon, 3 wraps per coil, 0.5ohms...
Omega 2mm folded ekowool, 28awg, 4 wraps per coil, 0.3ohms...

When I used silica I filled well void with cotton ball strands to improve juice capacity.
I find cotton easier to work with.
I try to keep cotton wet but I have run it a little dry w/o damaging it before. As cotton dries the vape quality change will give heads up if paying attention.
