minigun1 - just tagging you to say welcome to the madhouse, and just shout if you need advice or help, although with GunJack around, you are well placed already!

I guess I knew that GunJack Will he be building/wicking his own coils? He really ought to get himself on here too, so we can help him along the way!

I'm sure you'll get loads of great advice here GunJack but personally, I have various mods, sub ohm exclusively, and never go above around 70w meaning that his existing mods would be sufficient for the moment. I currently have a couple of Ammits and two Geekvape Griffin 25s on the go, and have dual coil 3mm ID 6 wrap .5mm Kanthal in them, works fine for me. Loads of clouds and flavour! Will be following this post to see what others are using! ETA: I also have a Pulse Squonk which I'm very pleased with. Not expensive for a first play around with BF atomisers, but make sure he understands Ohm's Law and battery safety

As above, the coil retains heat after you release the fire button, so continues to vaporise juice. Nothing to worry about, and as the coil gunks up with crud, it will lessen anyway BTW, just noticed that jevans has renamed himself - congratulations!!

I think that the best way to deal with any orders from that part of the world is "order and forget". If they haven't arrived after a month, then start checking tracking, but TBH they are not worth the (virtual) paper they are written on. I have an order from 3FVape which left them a week ago, and according to the tracking site is still in China, but I very much doubt it. On a side note, as a volunteer Watchkeeper for the NCI (National Coastwatch Institution), I read a fair amount of marine sites ( G Captain is a good one if you are interested) and read recently of a container ship that lost a fair number of containers overboard in bad weather out East. I wonder how many times vapegear is lost this way, and never resent . . . ? Here's a similar article from earlier this year - gcaptain.com/how-many-shipping-containers-lost-at-sea/How many shipping containers lost at sea?

Thanks blakey, both batteries are brand new (<10 partial discharges), and the iJoy is 40A, I presume the Fogstar is similar. I will build to .2ohm to allow a bit of headroom, and report back!

Following this as I have recently bought a Pulse squonker and Pulse 24 RDA. I have some Ni80 .5 - could I dual coil this, 7 wraps 3mm ID comes out at .25ohm? I have 2 x 20700 batteries, one is an iJoy, the other a Fogstar (which I'm sure I have read is a re-wrap of the iJoy). I have 2 x 9 wrap 3mm ID Kanthal .5 coils in at the moment, and although the vapour is produced well, the vape lacks a kick to it - rather too smooth and mellow for me! Watching with interest! EDIT: Steam Engine link
