@YeOldeOke , thanks for the prompt reply. I made an error in trying to apply the coupon code to your "E-Liquid made to order" category and not the Premixed concentrates.
Thank you for clearing that up for me.
Glad it was a easy fix @Mklops, a little more practice and you will be coiling like a master. Now just cut that toothpick off flush, it can be removed with a needle if neccessary. Also tuck the ends of that wick up against your posts as not to block the channels. Happy vaping man!
@Mklops, It sounds like your fill port is not closing properly and causing the flooding and leakage by letting air in and breaking the air lock. Rinse out the fill port from both ends with a syringe and hot water to loosen the locking mechanism. Be careful not to insert the syringe too far and...
I agree with @Derick, I dont think there is any danger in using decent quality Silica/Ekowool. If we were to inhale any fibres, the body would expel it by means of coughing or phlegm. Our lung are made to filter out these foreign objects.
@devdev, I have also fiddled with the "Ekowool" (to me it...
So as I lay in bed I had a great idea for a venue and had to come post this else I cant go to sleep.
I was thinking... as half are from Durban area and half are from "Retards bay" (thanks for that one @Rooigevaar) , why dont we meet halfway? I know there is no decent halfway mark for us to meet...
Glad we could help to sort that one out, it does seem like you have 31/32g there. Go for 4 wraps to get your target 1.2Ω coil @Bubbly. Let us know how it went mkay.
@Bubbly, here is a resistance per inch chart just for reference:
Resistance in Ohms/inch for the Resistance Wires
Kanthal Grade----- A-1 ------ A -------- D ----- Nichrome 60 -------- Nichrome 80
30 awg (Ω/in)----- 0.7 ------ 0.7 ------ 0.7 -------- 0.6 -------- -------- 0.5
31 awg (Ω/in)-----...
Just by the looks of that wire I would say that it is not 26g you have there, it looks way too thin to me. I'm guessing you have 32g there. As a test, do another 6 wrap coil, if it comes to the region of 1.8 - 2 Ω then you have 32g.
Those ugly coils have merit to them, try 3 x 2mm Silica/ Ekowool doubled over. Essentially giving you 6mm of wick with 4 wraps 28g wire. Now that is a juicy puppy and produces awesome clouds and flavour on a dripper.
Edit: I need to correct my statement - 3 x 2mm doubled over gives you 12mm of...
Herewith, my most glorious vape mail to date. A special thanks to @RevnLucky7 from #SubOhmVapor for making this possible.
I have tasted a little of everything, and let me tell you (without prejudice) ... I dont know if I can go back to locally produced juices having tasted some of these...
Mega lolz Johan, this is actually done with Silica. But I do find that cotton creates huge plumes, especially the cotton swabs, the rolled cotton does not really do it for me although it is easier to work with.
I was fortunate enough to get some Devils Cut from @RevnLucky7 about 2 weeks ago.
Let me tell you ... this stuff is flippen amazing. You would not expect this type of tobacco taste and aroma to come from an electric cigarette, I could not believe it, I felt like I was in a cigar lounge puffing...
