David I do use just the VW mode mostly. I really like it alot. I've tried the VV like the VW better, but you are right it does depend on the juice.
I do generally run in VW mode, but with some flavors in mini PTs and Davides, and depending on the coil, I find that the VV3 in VW mode doesn't go low enough to not burn the flavor. In that case, if I don't put that topper on another device, I'll put the VV3 in VV mode, as it seems to be able to go a bit lower.
That is awesome info to know. thanks! I will keep that in mind. The two tanks that I have changed to 2.0 ohms have been great so far. The tanks that i still have the 1.5 in, i will try the VV thanks for the thought!
Got you PM and responded. No special juice needed in fact an RDA is going to handle all juices very well no matter what.You is awesome!!!!!!!!
This is one of the coolest things about ECF - folks are always so willing to help, and to pay it forward.
Yes I agree totally! They have been so helpful, because I have no clue what I am doing, but I have learned so much on here! They are all awesome! And hopefully one day I will be too lol
That is the goal! When I first found ECF there was no way in the world I was ever going to re build.. I very quickly learned a lot from here and elsewhere and am very happy I learned. And I am happy I can pay it forward it is very satisfying to help other vapers.
Like any hobbyist, the vape-a-hobbyist also likes helping people learn the hobby.
Unlike other hobbies, vaping may actually be life-saving, so helping people get over the learning curve of any part of vape-land is especially rewarding. We all had to learn the ins and outs of our hardware, juice blends, and what flavors we like.
And don't feel you have to "learn" every part of the hobby. Remember your primary goal was to become a non-smoker, and as long as you have the hardware and skills to do that, everything else is the hobby part, to be picked up at your own pace.

wooohooo! lol (good thing I just bought new undies lmao) I'm all for the saving money lol
Lets hope your right about that. I really have no idea what I'm doing, but I know Sam and the rest of ya will help! Thanks all!
Ok Granny your IGO is on its way... I was going to PPM you a series of picks but thought about it and I thought maybe other people would like to see the nuts and bolts in case they are interested. A caveat I am not a photographer nor am I very good at doing reviews... There are hundreds of good coil rebuilding reviews on You Tube and I can send or post links to the best that I have found that helped me learn. What I will present in the next couple of threads is a pictorial breakdown and build of the IGO so you will know what to look for. I apologize I had to change mods mid pics due to the first not reading the atty properly.
Ok here is a close up of the RDA before tear down as it should look with drip tip (any will do)
and another for reference you see the air hole which should be lined up with coil inside (more on that later)
Top cap pulled off next to base if I lifted top cap and installed you can see the air hole would be lined up with coil
Cap out of the way this is the base built with my wick saturated in it. This is what it should look like when you add your juice to it. the nice thing about this RDA is the Air hole is high up so it does not leak as badly as some of my other RDA's
Coil and wick removed washed in alcohol cleaned up this is a bare deck as it would arrive if you bought it new.
Coil wrapped 7 wraps 28g kanthal not tightened up or torched yet. but you could instal this coil as is and probably get a decent vape out of it.
Coil installed after compressing and torching into a microcoil (all coils touching makes the coil more stable and eliminates hot spots)
Different Angle also have pulsed and tightened up coil making sure it heats up from middle out. No hot Spots coming in at a solid 1.4ohms
Pulsing to check looking clean and good
Very Accurate reading on DNA 30 1.4 ohms every time I fire
Muji Japanese organic cotton wick threaded into coil
Cotton Tucked in once you add juice it will all settle down some and look more in control (LOL)
Cap next to base see the air hole on side of cap is lined so when you put cap on hole will be right next to coil
Cap on Base ready to go as soon as you add juice and drip tip
From the top this is where you will drip your juice you can see the cotton in there just keep it moist
Again I am not claiming to be a reviewer or someone who builds amazing coils but this is a very basic step by step.

Ok...got my RDA today that Sam so sweetly sent me...and...I LOVE IT!!!! Now...when do I know I need to add more juice...and I have a gurgling...did i get to much in??? Why should my wattage be??? I got it on 6 right now??? just play with it??? omg so excited..but scared when I gotta build. lol Thanks all...you were all right! lol
oops forgot to add my photo of it with my halloween tip lmao Oh yea...that is the backside of my Chihuahua lmao
Glad you love it now enjoy it for awhile and we will work on the re buidling soon!
I saw this thread, but didn't look at it until today.
It's got everything! A conflict between a vaper and their equipment! Lots of good advice! A kind soul, paying it forward! And last, but not least: A sweet Halloween drip tip. You all have officially made my day
