Well it turned up today.
Slapped a 0.8ohm build in it. Wicked her up and gave it a toot. Not bad at first. But its now settling in and the flavour is very good. Im also very happy that i can lung hit it. Its perfect on max airflow.
Just wondering what skrt of wattages you guys have managed to get it to work at?
Im chain vaping this at 25w and its keeping up brilliantly!

I usually vape at 35w on a 3mm 316L SS in TC or without it, had a genuine K5 since it first came out and for me its my everyday tank over the Hurricane 1.3 and Rose 3. Its easier to fill (takes 30 seconds) and easier to wick and the draw fully open is a perfect restricted lung hit.

However, it IS a great RTA. I need to experiment more. I think an open coil with thicker wire will be better. Oh...and 35w is not good in w mode lol

The trick to the cotton, is 1cm either side of the coil Cut and poke in the wells, job done And remember to screw the tank down when you fill it Trust me, you only make the mistake once I might have remembered when I did it a second or third time

I put less cotton in than i did with first build. Wow the difference!! Much more flavour...plenty more vapour. Im really liking this tank!
