With dual coils the current runs through both in parallel, so at the same time, rather than one after the other (in series). It's like tipping out two bottles of water at the same time rather than one after the other - if that makes sense. This would halve the resistance of the build.

With a lower resistance, in order to get to the same power, will require more current (Amps). The higher the current the more drain there is on the battery.

For a cooler vape, turn down the wattage, increase airflow or reduce wraps. If you're on a variable wattage mod, and adding more wraps at the same wattage, will increase the heat.
 
okay, so if I go down to say, 7 or 8 wraps each coil rather than 9 wraps that I do now, wouldn't I be lowering the ohms more then? id of thought that would make them heat up even faster and being a warmer vape
 
I feel a little splurge coming on

Spec me some RTA's that are the current flavour of the month, Im still rocking my orion v1 and my Kaifun 3.1 clone so think its time to update.
I hated the Russian 91%, and the fogger was a right pain, or maybe I just had a bad clone...
I like the look of that ubertoot, and I have read good things about the rose v2, but are there any others?

I might even get my first square mod - what is the smallest sized decent one to buy as I find Im into my tiny mech mods...
 
Ok you've got me doubting myself now! :P Yes you are right I'm sorry, reducing the resistance at the same wattage will increase vape temps. Don't know what I was thinking!

What you're after is knowing the heat flux of your build, that will give you a good indicator of what kind of temps you'll be vaping at.

If you can, enter your current build details in here: http://www.steam-engine.org/coil.asp then mess about with it by taking wraps off, putting them on etc. You'll see the heat flux go up and down accordingly.

Righto lads,
What 18650 batteries are you using in your mech mods?

Currently I'm using Efest purple IMR 2500mAh 3.7v 35A but want something that will last a bit longer.

True, how much are they going to retail at? Surely there does come a point where it doesn't correlate anymore though.

I bought a clone kayfun for £30. It was nice, bought a real one for ~£100. Wasn't 3 times better...

I recently bought a Rose V2 clone, very impressed, better than both of the kayfuns. The real one though, for 10x more, I doubt would be 10x better.

Your old Hana Modz is still going strong dude!

I had the original Rose so not sure what differences are in v2 but it was very fiddly to insert the coils - especially dual coiling and you could easily snap the legs from over tightening the grub screw. The ceramic cup wasn't replaceable and many first time users broke theirs.

The 510 connection wasn't even adjustable and for the price they demanded it was a missed opportunity. I find juice flow on all attys a gimmick and the clear tank wasn't friendly with snake oil as it was cheap acrylic (They cheaped out on materials).

I wouldn't even get a clone of the thing as it's not very good. It's one of the main reasons I stopped purchasing and following the vaping scene as people were re-inventing the wheel and cashing in on people's ignorance as vaping was growing at a phenomenal rate and probably still is.

Definitely gone mad but then vaping has now appealed to a "younger" generation who like all the added faf and techno babble.

He mentioned that his source for Ti was Ukraine so then it's understandable why he cannot get large quantities but then again he was supposed to make a titanium version years ago long before the Ukranian crisis.

I would have liked it if he incorporated a system without sacrificing on style and size that allowed 3 tier illumination around the button that showed battery level. I can always go by instinct and it's pretty easy to tell when your battery is getting flat.

Has there been any revisions or new atomizers made for the current MS? The temon and penelope do look nice (I have these currently) but I do prefer RDA's like the Kayfun mini but I didn't like how it protruded further out than the atomizers I mentioned also it didn't have a clear tank (I like to look at how much juice is left).

What do you use in yours again? iirc you had the Kayfun mini and a GP spheroid.

Yeah read your post mate I can see the Ukraine being a bit tricky just now.

I like the idea of the illumination for battery levels, would be nice.

New atties, not really sure there's been much to speak of in that department.
A guy called John on the vape pit makes a 16 mm dripper, pricey and a bit rough and ready by the looks of them but has a lot of good comments,. Not been on for a while just seems to be the same old same old:rolleyes:

Me I'm still using the Temon and Spheroid (cant go wrong with those), not used the kayfun mini for ages I should get rid:eek:

Never got round to remaking my Hybrid dripper but have the Ti sat waiting and have it all drawn up on solidworks with a few improvements, will get on with it now my job has settled down a bit.
 
Went to hypnotherapy last week to quit the fags, not had one since Wednesday and I chucked out all my lighters and stuff.

Still got the old vaping stuff lying around though and had a puff on that last night, reckon it counts as cheating?

Nar that's not cheating. :-)


Ok guys been back on the juice for 2 days now but I need some nic base for making my own. I've got vapeesscape just down the road and that's £20 for a 100 ml of 5km

Is there anywhere that's cheaper/better. I know that's still cheap for what it saves you but I keep stopping and starting and the wife has a moan every time I spend money on it haha. I know I could get a smaller bottle but at £12 for 30 ml I feel I'm ripping myself off :-)

Less than half the price! Can anyone comment on these?

I did ask the same question a good few months back and someone mentioned a shop and the price was cheap but it turned out it wasn't as strong (54mg) as listed and they needed to use a lot more. Then the same person who mentioned said shop received there order and said it was watery but then I didn't check back because I got back on the fags.

I know the stuff from vapeesscape is ok as I've used it before. If they sold a 50 ml bottle for £10 I would by that tomorrow.

Microstick is small. 4nine is small too if you want a full sized mech

Just FYI, capella waffle flavour concentrate makes a delicious liquid. As does their caramel when mixed with a bit of dolce de lecce. By itself it is a bit wack. Still to try: chocolate fudge brownie and orange creamsicle (bit of a wildcard).
 
I'll check in on this thread :D

Got me a vamo V5, Eholly 35W, Sir Lancelot clone, Eleaf istick, and a Innokin itaste vv.

Atomiser wise I've got, 2 mini nautilus, 1 nautilus, Pro tank 2, Brass monkey clone, Magma clone, AGA T3 clone, Onslaught clone, Igo W6 clone, and this week I've picked up a kanger sub tank.

The Sub tank is this weeks flavor of the week for me, The thing rock. I've not built on it yet but the 0.5 stock coil is pretty good, It's not leaked or given me a dry hit, and I'm clearing 10ml a day on it.

I'm on 0-6mg, I can vape all day at 0 no problems. The only reason I have 6's is the local shop only does my favorite flavor in that strength, zeus UK dimplebery.

I'm very tempted to build the Sub tank with a pair of 1mm nano coils. Super hot but massive flavour.

My coil building is reasonable. I've done the fancy ones, i've done the builds with 3-4 coils. But the one dripper I always come back to is the brass monkey on 1mm nano's. The thing is a flavor beast, I would say it is better than the magma in single coil mode when it's set up in the sweet spot. And that sweet spot is with the coil almost touching the air holes, Overwicked to make a tunnel under the coil. No spits hot as hell and flavor like you just tipped the bottle in your mouth :D

Nice to see others are vaping as well :D
