When I Make Coils....

GFV Coil Building Tool Kit 8 Pieces Universal Household..

Sorry for the bold, cut and past... I just wanted to throw this out there for anybody looking for a reasonable priced tool kit. I got this from amazon for $32 and it has everything you need except an ohm reader. I purchased the two from amazon with the mini tab v2 and the case and tools were a POS. I used the alien coils and cotton included and was astonished with the flavor. Good buy  

Hey guys, i have a mutation x v2 RDA on a sigelei 100w mod. I'm somewhat new to building, i'm not great, but im not terrible. I've been looking for an easy build that i get some good clouds and flavor on. BUT i want to be able to take nice long draws without drying out my wick too fast. I currently have 28g and 26g kanthal. Suggestions?  

I've been vaping in subohm territory on bigger (non cigalikes) mods for the past year or so, on 0.3-0.7 coils regularly with VV/VW mods only with a range of 30-40watts. I started looking for mech mods recently and picked some up, then picked me up some VTC4's. After trying to figure out builds and such, I discovered Nichrome 80 (I exclusively used Kanthal A1). Come to find out Nichrome 80 is more malleable, and doesnt last as long as Kanthal, I was deterred but looked more into it. The rampup time on Nichrome seems to be much quicker, and the Nichrome 80 gives less resistance per ft compared to Kanthal A1 (same gauge). Recently I've been vaping 0.17-0.3ohm coils and Its the closest thing to a quick drag form a lit cigarette ive ever vaped.

I believe I will be purchasing a sigelei 100w soon, so I wont have to 'build for the mod'. 100W vaping is pretty nice not having to take 3+sec long drags, with 0 rampup time. So yeah, I get why the sigelei mods are popular now. I didnt really bash on em I just never understood them, but now I do . Short, Quick, Drags. Very satisfying.  

So, I'm trying to learn my lesson and when I take apart my Kanger or Nautilus coil heads I trying to drop all the itty bitty pieces straight into a little box so I don't lose them. But then it still happens sometimes... mostly with the bottom pin and rubber grommet which I swear my tiled floor simply devours!

My question is - are things like that sold separately (not in the US please) and if yes what exactly do I search for? A search for rubber grommets on Fasttech only yielded a bunch of rubber bands and o-rings.

Thanks.  

Hey guys! i've been having a huge problem with my sigelei 100w ohm reader just jumping all over the place when i vape. it changes every few pushes and varies anywhere from .5 to 1.2 which is really obnoxious because when you dont notice it change you almost always get a dry hit. what do i do?  

So I just received a 100w seigei box mod and I fully charged my 2 18650 batterys that worked fine in my mech mod. When I put them both in my sigelei the battery percentage only tops out at around 50% charged?!!! Like what they are for sure both fully charged. Anyone know what the problem is?  

Hello guys,
I recently purchased a single coil RTA, my first rebuildable experience. I love it!! .
I saw at the shop a double coil RTA and a Double coil RDA, was planning on buying one of them until I thought I only have a 100W mod. Do you guys think it is enough? Are there some specific ohms coils that could make it work etc? Or is a 100W enough? I am new to this so calculating ohms law and all the other stuff I will learn, I just need a answer from the double coilers if you guys use higher wattage mods or not.
Thank you in advance!  

All of the sudden I wake up today and notice my 510 threading on my sigelei 50w box mod is jacked up. I cleaned the threads on my subtank mini and on my sigelei mod. I then tried screwing it onto my mod and now no matter what I try , there's a gap between the top of the mod and the bottom of the subtank (it's not screwing down all the way and has about a 3mm gap, hence now it won't fire...

I screwed my subtank onto my ileaf 30w and screws in flawlessly, so it's the sigelei threads ...

but I did pay a lot for my sigelei and prefer its hits , I dunno, I usually Vape about 16W on my sigelei And not sure how that translates over to what wattage I should run the eleaf at ?

Also, I just noticed that my spare RDAs will still screw onto my sigelei well..I'm so confused what's up !!!!  

I have had one of these for years and it has always come in handy for small projects..I plan to start building coils, and this seems like a great tool to make it easier...anyone use one for that purpose? I would love to hear about it!  

I never used anything but Kanthal and Nichrome wire to build my coils.

All things being 100% equal (wire gauge, coil type, coil diameter, ohms, etc) do SS coils require more power to run to get the same vapor as the exact same coil/resistance made from Kanthal or Nichrome wire?
