Just coiled my first evod head. kanthal 0.2mm wire and a 2.5mm silica wick, 4 wraps'ish with a little wick on top, flavour wick I believe you call it, I don't know why I did that but I've read some do it and took apart a factory head to see and they had one in. Used my new multimeter to test and reading at 1.6 ohm. Popped some bubblegum juice in turned spinner down a little to 3.5v as used to 1.8 ohm at 4v let it sit for 5 minutes then fired her up ................ It works ! Seems a bit more of a throat hit but I'll tweak the spinner to see if I can find my sweet spot. Seems more vape cloud aswell which I like I know, I know everybody and there dog can do this but I had no confidence having painful joints in my hands and I'm quite pleased with myself. Thanks to all who advised in other threads Jay

Well done JayJ great feeling when you have made your own wick and tried it knowing you made it, plus the benefits money wise is so much better. And you get a better vape too boot

Well done JayJ I reckon the ultimate in vaping satisfaction is getting a great vape with a coil you have wrapped yourself and juice you have made yourself ...nothing compares!

Open your fridge and I'll make you something from nothing, I've cooked and baked from being a child. Making my own juice, hmmm another step up the ladder for another time maybe lol. EDIT: PS Dont tell folk about the cooking and baking outside of these boards though. I'm a hard vicious thug that thinks torture is a recreational passtime if anyone asks.
