Yeah same here, it sucked. The Illuminati sold out even quicker apparently.

From what I understand the Illuminati sold out in 15 seconds, but there were only 23 :) Gonna try and wick and coil the dragon now that I am home from work! I have been reading some about using twisted wire....will have to look into that some more. It is like trying to read through an encyclopedia when trying to read and glean information from the iHybrid thread :/ They do have a handy guide though, so off I go.

Not here yet but I have a Zen Mini (in transit since 26 Nov) and and orion V2 (in transit since 4h30 pm 6 Dec).

Any bets on which arrives first?

The orion, Zens seem like they've been having unfortunate problems all around lately lol I bet they're cursed or something, still want one though

You may be right. I thought I'd input the tracking number just for fun and it actually showed up. I think it's pre-cleared customs in Germany. An go figure its giving me a 2 to 3 business days delivery. I shouldn't be surprised by that I married a german.

oooo yes, I'm curious about twisted wire too (have yet to build my first coil lol).... so you learn all about it and what to do and then I'll pick your brain here ;)

Hope you nail it (wicking and coiling the dragon) first try.... I have great faith in you ;)

Zen~ has a great video that wraps in 35 seconds. Of course I said "Yeah right the Inept Vaper here is going to wrap a 35 second coil".

I did a 4/5 wrap perfectly spaced and it blows massive clouds. I'll look for the video and post it back here.

Twisting the wire is essentially making a dual coil so it also has half resistance of a normal non-twisted wire. Not sure about any advantages other than more wraps with less resistance

I'd assume it puts greater strain on the battery as well

Y'all are .......s. I still can't get my DiD-clone to do anything but give nasty harsh hits with little vapor. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Grr...

I did get a package last night. ZMax v2, 4-bay fast charger, batts, vivi with soem heads. Not mine though. My brother-in-law suddenly decided he wanted a mod after being an on-again off-again eGo vaper who originally said he never wanted anything big and bulky. They grow up so fast...

I tried the twisted coil, makes the coil very rigid and hard to form.

wound up using 28 ga instead, easier ( all things being relative) to work with, less shorts and last longer IMHO.

as far as the incoming mail goes, I got some hammond aluminum boxes, super nice switches, fuses and li-po batteries yesterday. Gonna build a couple of super duty box mods around the new dna board

Well, there's my Christmas present from my son - the Vamo! - but I doubt that will make it by next week.
There's the overseas order from waaaaaay back on Nov.3. China customs turned it around and it had to be resent. Still waiting for that!
There's a Genesis Atty I won from one of darksidevaper's shows on cvcn.ca... he wicked and set it up for me! So stoked!
There's an MapleLeafVapes Black Cherry Tobacco on it's way for me to try *numnum!*
And the really cheap F16 I got for $5.99 with free shipping so I could try out a carto tank....

Wow..... now that I mention it all, I can hardly wait for Monday!!

My Sagewood tip came today, should look good on the Gold Illuminati.

I go to a music festival of sorts of every year, it's North Country Fair, more of a convenient excuse to do everything you shouldn't be doing, if you know what I mean. But anyways, they're is always some really talented glassworkers there (lol), I should bring some drip tips and see if he can make glass versions.
