Since there are two threads and someone asked for builds Ill post the one I just completed here.
New build. 3mm ID 8 wraps of 26 gauge kanthal.
As can be seen it is a very tight fit.
Wicing the thing was a pain and I have no clue yet if it will leak.
It appears to be wicking ok from 30-40 watts.
The airflow is pretty tight with that large coil and wic in there.
Flavor isn't that great, but the build I had before wast either, maybe I'm spoiled after using the mutation v4 and the sapor a lot in the past week.
Overall, I don't know. I'll keep using this setup for a few days and see what I think. Next build will be a 2.5 mm twisted 26 build.
