Your Favourite Velocity Build

[theyettie]

Hey guys.

I'm loving the Velocity, best dripper I've had to date!! I don't see many nice builds on youtube, anyone care to post their mean/best builds for this beauty?

At this stage I'm rocking one big horizontal coil (twisted 24gauge kanthal; 3mm ID; 9wraps; reads 0.55ohm).

I had a quad coil build in there (26gauge kanthal; 2.4mm ID; can't remember wraps, it read 0.41ohm). This build wasn't bad but it chowed cotton, not sure why... I rewicked everyday (sometimes twice a day...)

I just smack dual claptons into it... 26/32g kanthal; 3mm ID; 6 wraps each; reads 0.5ohm

 

[GlacieredPyro]

Dual 3MM ID. 6 wrap 24awg kanthal.
Direct airflow 80% open. The rest closed.
50W - flavor and clouds for days

Simple is good.

One of my favourite builds in the Velocity is a 3mm parrallel 26g Kanthal and Clapton vertical build. Ramp up time is quick and flavour is on point!
Being a single coil it also doesn't use up juice a quickly as a dual.

not my own build, but would love to try something like this:

@Greyz it it easy to wick? i suppose there is no spitback... and what wattage do you run that on? keen to try that.

That's a very pretty build, thanks for the pic. I shall be having a go at her soon...

The options on this deck is pretty much infinite IMO. Loving it!!!!!!!

It is a bit difficult to wick if you try wick the coil while it's installed vertically.
What I do is I wick the coil in a horizontal postion then remove it and mount it vertically.
Trim the top off, wet it and I stick my small black screwdriver into the top just to pack it up a little.

It's a very simple build which you will easily master

Or rather this:

Mmmmmmmmmm looks like I missed a trick by doing a vert parallel coil.
Next stop more wraps and a horizontal build.

I love this RDA simply because of it's versatility and the fact that so many different builds work in it.

which gauge did you use for the kanthal in the middle?

 

[Greyz]

The Kanthal is 24g coil ramp up time is slow under 50W tho.

The Rx200 is the best vape related purchaae i ever made so far.
I'm actually up at 60W now and already went through about 10ml of juice

Hey guys,

Just wanted to share my easy solution to single coil builds on the velocity.

Some of you guys have some really fantastic builds. I just haven't really been a fan of the dual coil setup. IMO it drinks waaay too much juice, and if one coil heats up faster than the other, that brings its own set of problems.

Vertical coil builds are cool, but I also wanted my airflow hitting directly on the coil.



I simply taped one of the air holes shut with electrical insulation tape



Got a prebuilt alien clapton on the side the airflow is open.

So far its been vaping like a rockstar. Nice clean flavour

hehe, that is just barely a Clapton hehe

Lovely pics guys

Just wondering if I should get this - i saw some comments somewhere else about this being more of a cloud chasing atty and not focused on flavour. And that the airflow is too open.

What are your thoughts on this versus the mini?

Or any other fairly versatile flavour atty with perhaps a slightly tighter airflow?
