IMEDICx90 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 LOL well i got my IGO-w in the mail today and it only came with enough supplies to make one wick and one coil so i thought... lets try it. I took my silica wick and folded it in half and then did a 5/4 wrap so i think the kanthal might actually be 34g instead of 32g because with my 5/4 wrap i got a 2.3 ohm coil. So i plugged it into my eVic and did a test fire and it did fire and i had a hotspot right on the negative terminal so i did like Uma said and just pulsated and pushed until they all glowed evenly. Then i popped the cap on... juiced up... and BAM! I dont know that the flavor is any better then my disposable dripping atty's... but it was MUCH more gratifying then just a plug and play atty Uma and Rixter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I think you'll find that, like all new things you try, taste and performance will get better and better with each new coil you wrap. Practice makes perfect. Uma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uma Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) Right on!!! +1 what Rixter just said. The better your coils get, the better the flavor. The biggest joy is, like you said, being self reliant when it comes to your vaping habit. Heck with customs, fda, senator antz, or taxes. WTG!!! Be sure your airhole is lined up with your wick, and when you vape, make sure the airhole is facing either the floor (for SS mesh RBA's), and anywhere you discover it's a good place to be without leaking but still get a good wet hit, with the RDA's. (take note of where the airhole is when you get that perfect vape). Welcome to the whole new world of self reliant vaping. Between your DIY mixes and your DIY atty, ... all that's left is your DIY mod. (you're on your own there, I still need to learn how lol) Edited July 15, 2013 by Uma Rixter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
