Wanting to start to rebuild protank heads, need help

[SonHouse]

Does anyone know where to get some good 30 Guage kanthal or 28 Guage. Amazon has both and the 28 Guage is cheap but the 30 isn't, also I really wouldn't like to use ebay

Temco is the supplier I use. I personally use the 30 gauge with Protanks.

So is this a good deal then

Kanthal Wire 30 Gauge RW0107 - 100 FT 0.39oz Series A-1 Resistance AWG

Good stuff, I have a longer roll of it in my hands now doing some recoiling.

So would you recommend the round kanthal or the ribbon one then?

I use 9 turns of 30 gauge and do compress the coils to a micro coil. I personally prefer cotton balls to the yarn though I have used both successfully. The cotton ball is just fluffier and seems to wick better for me. YMMV

If you're rebuilding protanks, you don't want to use ribbon.

If you're rebuilding protanks, you don't want to use ribbon.

Agreed, you can leave the ribbon for later...

Alright thank you guys, I really don't know why I didn't try this earlier. These pre-installed ones don't taste all that great in my opinion. This sucks to cause I bought Aspire BDC tanks also and that didn't taste great ether. Hopefully this organic cotton tastes much better

I think you'll be impressed. If you decide you enjoy rebuilding, then try something like a Kayfun clone or an RSST. Both great devices that are easy to build and produce a great vape for less than the Protank for supplies.

yeah I need to look up cotton builds for gennys. I have 2 AGA-T2s and really didn't like mesh builds in them. I did one cotton yarn build that worked ok but I am hearing setting them up with cotton balls works better.

Look for either Lightning Vapes or Temco on Amazon. 100' of 30 gauge for under $6 plus shipping (Temco is $5.99, Lightning Vapes is $5.50).
