I didn't want to open a thread for every question so I though it might be a good idea to have one of these if there isn't one already.


First question

The tank that comes with the evic vtc mini will it work on my istick 30w mod?

Yes it should work.

 

[Kuhlkatz]

The stock coils with the VTC mini is a Titanium and a Nickel coil and most of the replacements are the same. These are intended for use with temperature control devices, so please do not try them on the iStick.
If you can get your hands on the Ego One CLR coils that are 0.5 ohms or 1.0 ohms Kanthal, they should work fine. As far as I know the CLRs are rebuildable too.

Awesome thanx guys

@Kuhlkatz raises a good point here, don't use the standard coils that comes with that tank as is. They are meant for Temp Control devices and should not be fired in Power mode. But if you can get the kanthal coils, that will work perfectly on the iStick. I would opt for the 1.0 ohm coil to start with. Just make sure it is the Kanthal coil

These ones?
It doesn't say what its made of though

Yes that's the one

Coil looks the same as the one that came with my v8 tank

If you like a more free flow draw take the 0.5 ohm. Rather buy 2 of the 1 ohm and 0.5ohm and see which coil suits your vaping style

What setting do you use on ti temp control on vtc mini?
I am currently on 245 Celsius and 18,4 watt

 

[daniel craig]

It all depends on the type of vape you prefer, I like a warm vape so I use it at higher temperatures but if you prefer cooler vape than use it at lower temperature

 

[daniel craig]

And with regards to wattage, the higher your wattage, the faster it will reach your set temperature.

It all depends on the coil - on the one my brother built for me, I am on 0.22oh SS, I have it at 30W and my temp ranges from 460 - 500 F.

What is the cracking and poping when it hits desired Temprature?

 

[daniel craig]

The noise from the coil? That will be the liquid heating.

 

[Nimatek]

Yup don't worry about that at all.
If you get juice spitting, raise the wattage a little.

Good thread @wiesbang

How long wil a ti coil last?
Weeks? Number of puffs? Taste?

I vaped between 250 and 260c in my car

And when got back in car there was this burnt smell. Smelling the drip tip there is also a burnt smell. Did the cotton burn?

 

[wiesbang]

As far as I have read there is no set time for a coil it all depends on your settings and the juice pg/vg you use

If it is a stock coil you can try throw it in some vodka overnight. Then let it dry out in the sun - aka it has to be nice and dry before using. The stock coils can last a week or 2 or 3 all depending on your usage and what you are vaping.

The coil will last long if its a built coul. The wicking needs to be replaced regularly. Daily if possible

Noob Question (well not sure if it's really a noob question though, but redirect me if need be):

Not sure if the hype has died out already but what are the actual advantages of using Clapton coils (besides for it looking damn sexy)?

I've not used it in any of my personal devices, however, I did try it on a buddy's setup (Dual Clapton on Plume Veil V1 Clone with Sigelei 150watt running at 62watts and a Dual Clapton on Atty Cubed on same MOD and wattage) and I have honestly had a similar experience using a dual micro coil build on a Subtank mini on an iStick TC40W. The ramp up time was too long, hence only got a decent hit on the second pull, I have achieved better vapour production using single coil builds with a cotton cloud and the flavour was not spectacularly different. I can somewhat understand a fused Clapton (because juice can channel in there as well).

Would appreciate any advice before putting in the PT to build these for myself (My devices list: Kanger Subtank Mini, Plume Veil Clone, Atty Cubed, SMOK X CUBE 2, eLeaf iStick TC40W, [Kooper Plus end of the month hopefully])

Thanks
