Just ordered a black one from eciggity. Looking forward to getting it. I might end up grabbing a istick pico also get this thing as small as i possibly can with decent battery life.

Also I guess should ask now. I have about 50ft of 26g kanthal that i used to use to build on my kanger rba's. This wire work or should I pick up something else. I always vape at .5 ohm. Probably about time to order more kanthal wire anyway. Lightning vapes looks to be cheap anyone used this wire?

What gauge would you recommend for building on this?

Lightning vapes wire is great but your 26g will also work fine if you don't feel like buying something new. I have run mostly very small 26x34 316l Clapton's in it and its working great resistance wise I have built between .3 through .8 on it and currently have a .45 running at 45 watts also and its great

26 will work just fine as long as your careful to trap the wire between the grub screw and side wall. With 24 you can simply lay it in the channel and the screw will trap it beneath. If your having connection issues or using smaller wire than 26g you can also double the end over to make it easier to trap

Had I known the deck design of the Serpent (single coil) I would have seen this thread, and ordered a Mini, a month ago. Better late than never... ordered one last night. :p

Would have known about the early WoToFo failure with black finishes too. Fingers crossed.

Because I don't roll exotics, I've never even used a Clapton.
Some weeks ago, when ordering the Bachelor (got a B Nano coming with the S Mini), I got a pair of 10 coil tubes of exotic coils.

Whose you ask? Why... WoToFo Comp coils, as it turns out. :D

They don't span the massive width of the Bachelors leg holes, but I did get the Tiger Wire to fit the tiny holes in an iSub RBA head. Even the Clapton IIIs are too thick. Others look larger still.
Shouldn't be a problem now, though I'll have to add another half wrap to the way they're made. And I just checked to see that WoToFo is definitely a fan of the CCW wrap.

I had to backwards wrap a second coil for a Triton RBA a couple days ago. It's not a lot of gear that requires a lefty roll. Cue someone to do a Serpent = Sinister joke. :p

Got my Serpent Mini on friday and i am really impressed so far. The counter clockwise coiling is a bit tricky at first but i am fine with that... flavour is great, the afc works very good and the top fill is a treat. At the moment I use a 2.5mm id 26g 2 strand twisted with 5 wraps. Wicking was easy as well... 9/10 would buy again.

Funny that you mention the lefty roll. Aside from capacity (which is subjective) my only gripe with the serpent mini is that it's a left handed wrap (counter clockwise).

Funny, as a lefty that is one of the perks for me I suppose lol

I got one yesterday and set it up today, the flavor is phenomenal, it's leaking a little but I think my wick is a little thin, going to put a thicker one in when I get done with this tankful of liquid, shouldn't take too long. I added one wrap to the wire it came with, clocking in at .73 and vaping at 21.9 watts right now, going to turn it up.

Its an Atto clone. Kinda like a mech mod (unregulated) but with some safety features built into the chip (chip acts as a 510 connector).

Very Cool.

At 1st Glance, it thought it was just a Mech. Then I noticed the Side Button.

Thank you for the Link. Might just get one for my FDA Disaster Preparative Box.

I agree.

The Serpent Mini is a Killer RTA for Flavor. And I love the Size. But Damn... It does seem to go thru e-Liquid Fast.

LOL

That's the beauty of top-fill, eh? And skinny Unicorn bottles. :p

That's where my pair are coming from (Egiggity is in Hawaii). Though USPS doesn't show them Leavin' on a Jet Plane just yet so est. is still Friday. If they fly into Sea/Tac that'll drop to at least Thursday, I'm in S. Oregon.
If they come into LA though...

We've been discussing the Bachelor Nano for a few weeks in the full size thread. Figured it was finally time to order one. I don't have issues with mine, most don't, love the deck design in fact... so I have high hopes for the Nano.

There's also a still hard to find MTL Conversion kit. Tighter DT and a pair of smaller ID plug screws for the deck airholes. Not my thing, but... it's a product.
