I've got 2 Goblin Mini V3s on the way, SS and black, both with extension tubes (and even spare glass!) - from Origin Vape. I've never heard of Origin Vape before, but they had everything I wanted at a decent price, so I went with them. Otherwise I would've ordered from Sweet-Vapes and FT to get everything I wanted - at a slightly higher price, and waiting longer for delivery of the extension tubes. (Sweet-Vapes doesn't currently have the extension tubes. FT does.) I could've just ordered everything from FT, but the savings wouldn't have been all that much - and the delivery wait time would've been much longer.
It's been a long time since I built and wicked my own coils. I did it for awhile with a Kayfun a few years ago. Getting the wick right was a bit of a pain. I found the whole process (including airflow adjustment, refilling, etc.) to be just too cumbersome at the time. Eventually I settled on using the Nautilus Mini, then clones of the Kabuki tank, using Nautilus coils. But Nautilus coils just haven't been very good for a long time now, and I'm tired of the crappy selection of MTL tanks out there that use factory coils. None of them seem to handle high VG juices well at all. Though it supposedly does, I haven't even bothered trying the Nautilus X. I guess I'm just done playing with Aspire any longer. I tried the T22, but that was a disappointment.
I'm interested in high ohm, single coil, MTL builds any of you have had success with using the Goblin Mini V3. I'm mainly interested in using rayon wick, which I have a ton of - though the last time I built my own coils I used cotton. On my old Kayfun I built 1.6 through 1.8 ohm micro coils. This worked pretty well for mouth-to-lung vaping, though getting the cotton to wick high VG juice well was always a hit or miss proposition. When it worked well it was a fabulous vape, but even then I tended to re-wick frequently. I'm curious about using double twisted kanthal (or other options to get similar result?), as well as possibly 316L SS wire (possibly for TC builds, but not necessarily). What gauges should I consider? How many wraps? For the most part I would prefer to keep things fairly simple. I'm mainly interested in a relatively cool, flavorful vape, with reasonable (not outlandish) vapor production. Vapor density being more the desired result, as opposed to high volume - using a fairly restricted (but not tight) draw.
Yeah, I know, that's a lot to ask for in advice, but I figured this thread would be a good place to ask. I'm looking around elsewhere for good build info as well, but build info on the V3's deck is still a little sparse - especially for MTL builds.
