Zero fluctuations in my nickel build today....held steady at .10 ohms. After spending a few days consistently vaping on the .10 ohm build in my kayfun lite plus, I'm amazed by this technology. I'm running my kayfun at 17.5 watts and the vape is incredible. I would have never of been able to do this with a standard kanthal build. I've successfully hit 30 watts without TP kicking in too....that is mind blowing to me. Anyways glad to see orders are starting to ship out now. Once you nail down a good build, this device performs flawlessly.
I've done both.
The screw gives me a more uniform coil.
These are popular sizes:
6-32
8-32
M2
M2.5
M3
I found some black screws, that are lot easier to see your wraps.
I'm using a 6-32 screw. Perfect coils every single time. Haven't tried hand wrapping yet since the screw works so well.
Hand wrap for the win!

Ordered my DNA40 on Nov. 25 from VS's store, and received shipping notification on Tuesday. It's expected delivery is Friday. Hopefully everyone who is still waiting will get theirs shipped soon!
What gauge wire, Joppa? Also - where did you pick up your screw? (Let the potentially sexual puns begin..)
Damn Kiwi! If you're near Grand Central/Chrysler Building during your visit, please let me know.
And thanks for the wrap info all!

I could've sworn you've said before you use a screw?
Ha! I started out using 28 gauge but I've found twisted 30 gauge to perform the best. As for the screw....hehehehe...I got it from home depot. Bought 6-32 and 8-32 but I haven't tried the 8-32 yet. 8/7 wraps of twisted 30 is holding steady at .10 ohms. I do plan on rebuilding tonight with a 9/8 wrap so I can bump the ohms up a little though.
This a looking good sir!Hand wrap for the win!

Hello good people, I just wanted to update you with a build I've been doing for my Kayfun's that could probably be applied to a bunch of different atty's. I've been having trouble making good ni200 coils because the material is so frigging soft and can be very frustrating to work with. I'm sure I'm not inventing the wheel here but this has worked good for me. I do not like microcoils, I prefer spaced coils because less gunk seems to build up on the coils when I use spaced coils.
You will need a 6-32 x 1"1/4 screw, the one I used came from a computer fan I was using in a push pull configuration with a Corsair H50 water cooler. The screws are perfect for creating a .10 ohm coil with 8 wraps. The coil ends up nice and tight. You just have to unscrew the screw from the coil... carefully! I don't dry fire the coils at all, just wick it up, not tightly, and vape away. So check this out and see if it helps.
This thread is moving along fast so I figured I'd post this again in case people are still curious about using a screw and what kind. Here's what I do...
Woho, mine's finally shipped today. Ordered the 29th in hopes I would get it before christmas. But seeing as usps usually takes about a month over the big dam to reach norway, I guess some time in january 
Edit:
While we're at it, do anyone know what temperatures etc I should set it to using the nautilus temperature sensing coils? those boxes doesn't seem to come with a damn line of instructions. Seeing as nobody really knows what the wicking materiale is, I am pretty clueless as to what temperature to set it to. And seeing as these takes so long to ship, I don't want to waste them on trial by error.
For my lemo etc I don't care as I have a big spool and a big box of KGD cotton. On those I can learn by trial and error. Mostly error haha

I set my temp based on the juice not the wick. I run from 390 to 450 mostly 420, whatever tastes better. Temps don't get changed much wattage get adjusted as toppers and moods change. I'd start at 400 and 6 watts and adjust to taste, I expect your Lemo will sink more watts, probably start at 400 and 12 with the Lemo. It's a start.
newphreak....I've been using the same TSC head in a Silo tank for a couple of weeks now. Been working good for me.
Not much for instructions!! From what me a a couple others have found is that the temp has to be set higher than the rebuildables. The TSC that I've been using is set to 500. Prob depends on your juice as well. I'd say start at 470/20w and play with it from there. Make sure the wick is saturated before you start using it.
Like Woofer, I'm around 420 with rebuildables.

Looks like those of waiting will get an upgraded rDNA 40. Larger screen, much faster internal charging, and a reverse polarity buzz.
