I got my AGA-T+ for my birthday back on February 15th, and promptly popped the coil I made with the Kanthal that came in the package within 5 minutes. It was crimped pretty badly in a couple of places to begin with, so I ordered some more wire, and it arrived in today's mail.
Success!!!
32g Kanthal...2.4Ω.
My coil glows a nice even red across the wraps. After vaping for a few minutes with it, I can actually feel the nicotine coursing through my system...and it's only 16 mg. I'm currently running it at 8 watts, and my wick (also my first attempt) is doing its job quite well.
Thanks to everyone who posted info on how to get up and running with SS mesh wicked RBAs. It really was painless.
Sigelei ZMAX & AGA-T+ RBA (filled with VT Dulcis, of course).
