Can be cotton wick (candle wick) or wool depending on the use. It has to have juice on it or it will just burn. Been about a long time but it used to be much more fringe, more people starting to try it now.


Dingos (and rollers) can be had from the Atmizoo

Thank you. That Dingo does look the dogs, love the custom two tone one......

Thanks a lot. Is there any particular reason to suggest the Vamo over the SVD though? I thought I'd ruled that one out, but now it's between the Vamo and SVD again. Either would be great, I'm sure...

Edit: I can also save myself 1.71 here, as I have loads of those in my "massive box full of potentially useful computer cables"
Edit2: I can see I'm saving a good amount of money here
Edit3: I ordered everything from FT and went for the SVD and panasonic batteries in the end. This question is now redundant.

Bugger! I have never been a fan of fruity or sweet flavors and gave up on them sticking to my tobacco with a hint of caramel.
Got some GVC a while ago and didn't get on with that either having gone back to it a few times. Recently I thought I would try again with the sweet stuff mixed up some apple pie with GVC and a hint of cinnamon, steep for two weeks and it was ok but not really my cup of tea. Five weeks on and I was having a clear out but thought I would give it another try, cant believe how good it is Yum Yum. The juice is as black as night and smells unbelievable and tastes even better, but..... I never made a record of how I mixed it :eek::eek::eek:

Lesson learned :rolleyes: Always take notes.

Hmmm... Scopes Apple pie mixed with GVC. Could be an idea as I need to free up some bottles.
 
I've been tempted to try the same, Been vaping VapingKings apple pie and custard but its not quite what i'm after.....

How does the coil not short on itself with the wraps that close? Why doesn't the current just travel straight up the side?
Click to expand...

The principle behind microcoils is that although they're touching, the overall resistance of the entire loop is enough to create a stable coil.
Also, with the turns all touching and the cotton acting as a buffer between oxidised mesh and Kanthal, the shorting is prevented.

I shall be brush-wrapping cotton on every single one of my mesh wicks from now on, this little extra stage makes coiling & working out hotspots a breeze!


As good as this dual wick, 0.7 Ohm business vapes (the flavour is fantastic!) I'm tempted to remove one of them as I've gone through half a tank in literally 5 puffs :eek:

I've also had to drill out my Aga's top cap, 2 x 1.5mm air holes, so the draw is incredibly airy. I can see this causing me a Nicotine OD very soon!

I received my bundle of wick & wire this morning (hence the mucking about), including some 2.5mm SS Rope...

I've got some household business to sort out before I've earned more Vape-Playtime (one of the few downsides to being married :rolleyes:), but I'll post back the results when I do :p

No...................................................... buy the real thing dont buy clones.

You can get good atomizers for sub £120. You HONESTLY get what you pay for..
Click to expand...

You really don't. I have read honest write ups on the Ithaka clone from Fasttech and they are all saying it is a good atomiser (UK Vapers/AAEC), not much difference from the real thing. Even though Todd doesn't review blatant rip-offs any more, he commented in one of his blogs that it was a very good atomiser.

My RSST is a clone yet it is a brilliant vape and it cost me £20. My ATTY is a clone of the Z-ATTY Pro yet is also a brilliant vape and well made with a Pyrex tank, all for the sum of £10 something.

The KTS may be a clone? But again, a brilliant little mech mod for the money (£11).

Another thing to take into consideration, if you loose that mod that you have in conjunction with lets say an AC9, thats probably over £200 down the drain in one go.

I can sense not only on this board, but other forums a little form of vaping "snobbery". I can see both view points on clones, but when mods are hard to come by and you have to wait on lists then splurge over £150 in one go, I can see why people by cheaper mass produced mods.

My Vamo/KTS + and soon to be Magneto will serve me well for years to come.

Why even Silica? I'm only using cotton right now. Noticed silica seems to break down after some vaping and worried about inhaling too much fiber glass. If you boil cotton before you use it, it takes away the new wick taste. So it taste good from the off.

Guess mesh wick are popular as they burn hotter, so give off more vapor and last longer before it needs replacing.

Take your Johnston's cotton buds elsewhere :D

Still waiting on my Russian so I can cotton and micro coil that bitch :p

P.S anyone know where I can get a flute shaped drip tip? Something like this on CV9 but it''s OOS

Edit - Also I found a free shipping code "TheDen" if anyone is ordering snake oil from tmax-juices.co.uk.

Im going to give the microcoils on the mesh wick a try? do i have to use cotton? I got some cotton in the house I could try to use.

Make sure you have decent batteries and mech mod that can take the amp draw from the coil, a fresh battery is 4.2v and a coil that's 0.7ohm will be drawing something like 15 amps or more at around 18 watts ... i don't know the correct figures but its not something a relative new user should be trying.

If you do try, just make sure your battery can take the high amp draw.

For some great advice, have a word with Mark Jones on the vapourtrails.tv forum.
