If you have either size of Berserker, and would like info. on obtaining another bag (or several bags), of the spare parts things (o-rings, screws, etc.) that come in the boxes with the tanks...please PM me. I've found a source for them, as well as bags for many of the other VandyVape and GeekVape tanks, too.
 
Can I get some help please? :)

I'm looking to buy the Berserker MTL RDA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer but I've never used them before. I've made a ton of purchases but only for the classical Kangertech single/dual coil e-cig with 1.8 ohms and batts around 900 - 1100mAh.

And I was wondering what kinda whick/cotton I need to order with it to rebuild the coil and how often do i need to change the metal which is holding the cotton (whick i guess) and which to order?

Like.. does any of these batteries fit it ?

Yours, newb :D
I would suggest getting a mod with replaceable battery and buy at least 2 batteries for never ending vaping. You will also need a charger. How do you vape and what liquid do you use? (PG/VG). Are you a mouth to lung vaper or direct to lung vaper? I think you are a MTL vaper with your choice of tank, but not sure of that. Will you use Temperature Control?

The cotton you chose looks good. There's a lot of choices with wicks. You will also need some wire to make the coils. We need to hear from you about how you like to vape to help choose wire.

Waiting to hear from you.
 
Thank you for your reply!

Uhuh, where do i start :)

Okay, first liquids, I usually order Hanga/Hangsen/Liqua and most recently I've bought a base and aroma to try to mix it myself. I never really pay much attention to the VG/PG.. I can only tell the difference by taste.

Here's my last order on liquids.

About MTL or DL; I'm really not sure, I care about the taste and getting nicotine hence I switched 3 years ago from cigarettes to vaping. The reason why I am changing from this small ecig is that I've tried a dozen of them and not really any creates a taste that good and most coils, after the first day, give me the hit to the throat that burns like hell and tastes awful (tried various coils but still it's either the first -no taste- or the second -throat burning hits-). I've never liked the huge clouds as my family is describing it as a walking train so.. a little of it would be perfect. :D

Temperature Control; Yes I'd like to use it. To have a slow inhale which is cool as I smoke really quite a LOT (currently having 6 batteries to never run out).

How often do I need to change the wire for the coil? And would you be able to look at the fasttech.com site and tell me which battery/mod would you choose (or out of the one's I've linked above) and what kinda wire would I need?

@Helena88 - Since you'd be just starting out, using a tank that doesn't take factory coils that you easily replace...I'd strongly suggest that you buy some pre-wound coils first. That way, you can first learn to how to properly install them and wick them, before getting into learning how to make your own coils from scratch.

FastTech carries a large variety of pre-wound coils, and they run about $3.50-$4.50 per package of 100! I've been using some of them for 2 years now, and really like them. I do have the necessary materials and knowledge to make coils from scratch, but the pre-wound ones are so easy to use...I'm kind of liking them a lot now.

ETA: FastTech carries the Kanthal A1 pre-wound coils in 1.8ohms, which is what ohms your other coils in your current set-up are. I've used them in both the 22mm Mini Berserker and in the 24mm regular Berserker. They're very easy to install and then wick them.

My setup is 28ga kanthal a1, 2mm diameter,7 turns.1 ohm and 13W.I'm using Cotton Bacon or Muji.This is fantastic atomizer for tobacco's.

What is the difference between the thin wire as in the 1.8 ohms from Kanthal A1 Pre-Coiled Wires and the thick one in 28ga kanthal a1 which is only 0.35ohms?

Example:
  • Hybrid Alpha Braid Coil*4
    • 30ga*2 (KA1)+40ga*2(=)*16 (N80) / 0.35ohm
    • Parameter: Ф3.0 / 5 wraps
  • Hybrid Alpha Braid Coil*4
    • 28ga*2 (KA1)+40ga*16 (N80) / 0.45ohm
    • Parameter: Ф3.0 / 6 wraps
  • Coil Tool: Ф3.0*30mm+Ф4.0*23mm

    or something as:28 AWG / 0.3mm dia. / 1.1ohm / 21*31mm leads which has this.. middle thickness?
And sorry if my questions are noobish, it is all greek to me.

I don't find the 1.8ohms pre-wound coils, only wires

Hmmm, I'll go see if I can find them. I've bought them in 1.3ohms, 1.5ohms, and 1.8ohms from them in the past, but maybe they've discontinued the 1.8ohm ones now. If they have done that...I know several other vendors in the US who definitely have them.

ETA: I see that you went back and edited your post, with the same ones I found on FT and posted the link to in my next post. Yep...that's them...they just called them Pre-coiled wires instead of Coils!
