Your next buzz on this tree of vaping is doing your own coils mowjo. Tuning a coil to your own particular taste will really open things up to you. As others have already suggested - rebuildables will be your next challenge. Next step - THE WORLD!! mwahahahahahahaha

Neil! I'm just re-wicking a couple to try the Cotton pad at the moment, I have some pre made wires coming from FT, these ones, link I'll be ordering a couple of Orchids soon so I'll try making coils for them as they look quite easy and are a bit bigger, I'll be after more advice when I actualy get those, Mow,,,

No probs Mow, if you need any wire to tide you over let me know as I have several sizes, I can pop some through your door.

the sense of pleasure I got re-wicking my first coil surprised me so much I watched a couple of Videos on re-coiling and had a go at it. My first attempt wasn't great, so I watched a few more Videos and 1 in particular by an Irish guy called M3 Micro Coil led me to producing my first coils. I'm fairly confident now, my coils don't look pretty! BUT they work, and the sense of achievement is still there now. Try it as you have a fantastic offer of Wire to practice on from Greigster which is a great deal, I'm pretty sure he's a dab hand at Coiling!

Lets! apart from the fact I had my normal glasses and my reading glasses on at the same time to see the dam thing it was quite easy, the hardest part was keeping both pairs of glasses on, I'll have to get one of those magnifier stands, it's hard at first to work out how much wick to put in but I found plenty of info on Youtube,
Mow,,,
Just an Addy! is it normal for the coil to crackle and pop?? I never noticed it before,,

I love popping and crackling coils. As aliscampbell said, it is a good sign, although not everyone appreciates it

The Crackling dosn't bother me! even more so now that it seems it's a good coil if it does, it's like a Rice Chrispie moment every time I toot, but it was bothering the Mrs and she said it was getting on her nerves, well! first off it didn't go to well when I said you get on my nerves so we are quits, but I found the cure for her when I said fine I'll go back to smoking again, she hasn't mentioned it once since, I Win, Neil! thanks for the offer but i'll give it a miss for now, I ordered loads of stuff from FT, so much I've lost track, I have my stuff, stuff for my son in law and stuff for friends, I know there's some wire and pre-made wires in there but can't remember if they are mine or someone elses, it's all good because they all think I know what I'm doing, they don't know I get all my info from here, Mow,,,
