My first dripper?

Sorry for hijack
Can one use a dripper on the istick 30w?

Sure you can, but just check what the minimum resistance is for the iStick30
I think its about 0.8 or so, i could be wrong though

I would say go for a single coil with thinner wire (28g) and it should perform beautifully.

But there isnt enough power to drive a monster cloud blowing setup
 
@M5000 ive tried both high up and low down on the coils to me it's not making much difference other than shorter wicks seems to waste less juice. Flavour and cloud wise depends a lot on the juice being used some juices are great flavour and clouds like G6 and caviar and berry blaze from vape king others not so much.
 
Good stuff! @Bartart are you using that method where you keep the coils low so they touch the layer of cotton in the juice well?

@Wyvern first time I've ever heard of the Scottish Roll method, just watched a youtube vid and it looks awesome! I'm sure it works, but the mission will be to get it to work for me :) We started around the same time, I remember your question about the D16 battery, and now you talking RDA's! Let us know what you've tried, good flavours etc. Throw us some tips we will vote for you to become the forum president!

Btw off topic, f anyone has suggestions for Ni200 TC builds for higher ohms 0.15 please share them. Thanks!
The Scottish roll is the best wicking method going imo.Consider twisting Ni200 w/Kanthal to get the ohms higher,and better flavor.
 
Just got my Clapton but not sure how to use it in steam engine. Kanthal at 26 and 32 gauge.

Gonna try tomorrow night, looking to get around 0.45 ohm build from dual coils. Using parallel it should be around 6 wraps.

Just use it as normal 26ga wire.
 
So ignore the 32ga and build as if it is normal 26? I can do that.

I am guessing contact coil is the way to go with this?

Thanks @kev mac for that idea! With that combination will I still be able to run TC with Ni200 selected on the mod?
 
So last night I built coils and wicked the atty again trying to get proper clouds and flavour like I see other people getting, no luck. So I went into vape King and chat a chat with the really helpful special folks there who gave me some help and built some coils and wicked the atty for me. WOW what a difference @Oliver Barry once again to the rescue, thanks for the help and advice.

Thanks @kev mac that will make my mission much easier, the Ni200 will probably need a few metres to get close to 1ohm!

@Wyvern i'm so sorry lol I have no idea what I was thinking. It was late, and meds, but still relevant since you have come far from considering a humble D16 to the Billow league! I was responding to the post by @BumbleBee, I confuse the name with a female because it keeps reminding me of a girl with that IRC nick, which was a lifetime ago but the strangest things stick! Btw is BumbleBee e-liquid your brand?

Sorry I went very off-topic, so the scottish roll method has been working out quite well. It can last long before drying out, but I find that on a few quick chain draws it's having difficulty wicking fast enough. From the video that shouldn't be an issue, so I need to play around a bit to find the problem.

Also did a build on the velocity, around 1ohm-1.2ohm single coil since I can't use one of the posts, and the vape at lower watts was excellent. Perfect for chilled, long and flavorful draws - you notice each flavor and feel it come together. Very simple yet very satisfying.
 
LOL @M5000 thanks :D I know and I am already looking at getting an Aromamizer. . . .This hobby pulls you in like gaming does :D
 
Ok so I kinda borrowed the velocity from my brother ....

First build on it and in my noobish ways I have managed to get it perfect for me.

316L SS 8 wraps on 3mm diameter coiler to get 0.3ohms. Running it on my evic mini in temp mode and I am happy. Oh and stuffed with cotton bacon v2....

Yes I know my cloud is small I still need practice....

Looking great! How is SS to work with? Nickel is a nightmare I have given up on it..
 
SS is a breeze to work with, I am still learning but it's an easy metal that just works well and best for me is how well it keeps it's shape and I only recoil every 2 weeks and rewick every 2 or 3 days in my aromamizer and the dripper as needed.

Awesome, Thanks. Will definitely get some SS for TC builds.
 
I did the same thing in my Sapor now, dual SS coils at 10 wraps. Running it in TC mode at max temp 315degrees.

What is nice is the vape is about the same as before but stays constant. Quite nice actually.
