    My very first diy coils...

    Thank you for the informative reply @Grand Guru Would my Zeus X qualify as a big DL tank? Or should I stick to the 3mm ID coils for now? As for the round wire debacle, it seems alot of experienced vapors kind of lean towards not reinventing the wheel... Are there tell tale signs that there...

    My very first diy coils...

    Hey @Jean claude Vaaldamme And I have 100 premade Vapefly normal coils as well as the 10M 316L wire, so I could probably go that route...

    How much do you spend on COMMERCIAL E-liquid per month?

    Seems like it... Was looking at all the other eye candy mods over on the "whats in your hand now" thread... Oh man, this is going to be an expensive hobby...:facepalm: A week in, and around R7k down... Can't see the brakes pumping any time soon...

    How much do you spend on COMMERCIAL E-liquid per month?

    Hi guys and gals, Well, as I have only been part of the Vape community since last week Wednesday, I can only answer your question by judging my usage since then... I paid R300 for the 100ml bottle on the left and R340 for each of the 3x 120ml bottles to the right... So that puts me on R1320...

    My very first diy coils...

    @The vaper There we have it... Seems to be completely unanimous (hope that is spelt right... my english is getting done now...:giggle:) Seems like the problem is HEAT, and chain vaping... And them possibly wicking issues... I truly hope this forum does not get tired of me in the near...

    My very first diy coils...

    Thank you @CJB85 I have been looking at alot of youtube videos that are tickling my fancy about making your own types of wires for different coils, etc. It looks like something that fits right up my alley, and I tend to agree with you that the playing around and fiddling is half the fun...

    My very first diy coils...

    Howzit @Chickenstrip Thanks for the informative reply, i appreciate it. So what i understand now, is that i should take shorter drags, (I was taking loooong-as-possible drags). If I do that, will the 60Watts be ok? And the other thing I am definitely guilty of is the chain vaping thing...

    My very first diy coils...

    Hi there @takatatak Thanks for the reply and the advice on the cleaning procedure. On the dry-burn of the stainless steel... Oh man... I just did that with the coils I was so proud of!!! And they are 316L... Dammit Youtube... :facepalm: As for the specs of the two pre made sets of coils...

    My very first diy coils...

    Hi there, Yes, it is bending my head, as I keep filling the tank before it reaches 1/3 of the way down, so I cant see it being too dry? And I don't get that dry hit stuff (and to top everything off, I am a complete noob...) So, yeah... WEIRD is an under statement.

    What's in your hand right now?

    Oi wei... Sooooo many pretty gadgets.... What have I gotten myself into? I can already see myself turning into a collector:eusa_doh:

    My very first diy coils...

    Oh and also, is it a general characteristic of the stainless steel coils to give a bit of a metallic after taste? Only started noticing it now. Also, apologies for sending a bunch of separate messages, kind of typing as things pop into this "deurmekaar" head of mine... I hope I am not going...

    My very first diy coils...

    I do have one question though, regarding the cotton... Is it normal for the cotton to kind of disappear where the coil is? The photo below, is exactly how the cotton kind of "fell off on either side of the coils" There was nothing inside of the coil anymore, only the two pieces sort of...

    My very first diy coils...

    Thank you for the reply, They were only 4 days old, put them in on Friday morning, after taking the first ones out that I put in on Wednesday afternoon (when I got my Kit). I didn't throw them away yet, as @Resistance did also tell me that I can clean them in a similar manner that you just...

    My very first diy coils...

    Hi Guys and Gals:wave1: Sooo... this just happened... I started noticing a bit of a funny taste when vaping. Decided to have a look to see if I (In ALL of my bountiful knowledge:meparto:) could figure out what the cause was. Upon closer inspection, i saw yesterday, that the fancy new coils...

    Advice needed for a newbie please....

    Thanks for saying it rocks, I also think so :headbang: LOL Will the cotton still sit snug enough in lets let a 3.5 mm id coil? Is bigger better for flavour? I am lost on all the extra technical stuff... How would one place a single coil? Diagonally or just straight on only one side of the deck?

    Advice needed for a newbie please....

    Howzit guy, I am quite glad to hear that those coils are ok... Will have to rewick tomorrow, the fancy looking coils that came with it is looking quite black now already. I also got a roll of 30ft 24Ga 316L wire, but am struggling to figure out how many times to wrap the coil with it, to get...
