Never get a constant reading from the bottom two connections with a meter or via lambo 4 ohm check, but if I do a meter reading between centre post and the terminal at the top with an ohmmeter always get reading of 1.8, or whatever the current coil is. I have tried, hemp, bamboo and stainless on the T+ and not really that impressed with it. Waste of money I think, I rate the A7 stainless way better. Much better vapour at lower voltage.

The hemp thread arrived, just a 4 wrap .20 coil around that in an A7 is very good. Better than T2 stainless. A7 is kind of semi dripper, but great atomiser.

The enjuice desert oasis is very nice, got VG and PG mix, both good.

like I said enjuice vanilla not so vanilla, as a feedback on site says.

but yeah enjuice desert oasis I would recommend. try both VG and PG mix make yer own mind up.

So about 2 weeks in, funny was in a shop today and guy about a metre away from me smelled like an ashtray, sure I would not have noticed that a fortnight ago. Mainly vaping on the A7 stainless due to T2 being a pain to fill. Wow the Enjuice desert oasis is nice like a cigarette should taste. Though the Enjuice vanilla is rather disappointing but still way better than the HS premium impulse. The beer mash that is currently happening smells way more powerful than I remember.

yeah, but you already answered your own question, it is more than nicotine addiction, as I said in OP, it is the exhaling smoke/steam like a drag-on, and the hand to mouth and suckling type psychological addictions.

someone on another thread already said the trad methods do not work for many, I agree with that.

and, quit smoking not free round here, in old england you got to pay for prescription, you jocks got it easy LOL

and vaping not expensive if you get an ego-ce starter kit, 40 quid or so inc. some juice.

The cotton gauze rolled, wicks like it is drinking through a straw, similar with the undyed 100% bamboo yarn (which adds a bit of a sweet flavour) and as well as having done too many turns on the coil, I made the wick too thick under the ss under coils and it overpowers the coil capacity for heating, so few more experiments required, (wire thickness may have some effects I have not noticed yet, got some .18 now as well) and then I'll post what I think is the A7 optimal coil/wick design, the ss wrap under the coil does protect the wick quite well.

A7 atomiser is great for tasting new flavours as it has smallish reservoir. Wish I'd used it rather than the T2 to sample the HS impulse.

I'd say vaping could be used as a quit smoking and nicotine and vaping method, but you would have to plan it, starting at the equivalent or bit less nicotine strength to your current cig habit and staging a reduction in nicotine down to 0 nicotine e-juices. So don't go for the high strength nicotine juices unless you are a big cigarette smoker already.

However with all the amazing flavours it is actually very pleasant, and seems at least a harm reduction method, and I am not craving cigarettes at all, still got the nicotine and hand to mouth and inhaling/exhaling kind of smoke, physical and psychological addictions covered.

Just trying an A7 atomiser

One negative point about the A7's or positive, depending, they have a hole right through centre to battery terminal, so if you overfill you can get leakage down into battery, and probably bit of condensate as well.

Using A7 on the eGo-T upgrade, or standard eGo-C pen type battery, the 510 thread seals on the battery terminal post so easy to wipe off the blob of juice on just centre of battery with kitchen towel , but on something like the Lambo with a probe terminal more difficult to clean, so myself I would not use the lambo with an A7. However on a positive note, the A7 is suitable for a bottom feeder type battery mod apparently because of that hole allowing juice to be squeezed up through it from below.

Also as the A7 body gets warm I think it evaporates juice quite quickly too, got to experiment with wick length, someone on the net did an oval coil in 28awg and loads of bamboo threads, looks the way to go, get lots of juice in the wick away from the body.

The Vivi nova works well on the lambo as long as you only very gently tighten it. otherwise it seals up the air intake. But as this has large surface area exposed to air I think it uses quite a lot of juice.

Yet to build the AGA-T2 which uses a top hole for air draw, which seems better.

The CE2's seem to me the most efficient in terms of minimal juice use, good vapour, and moderate sized reservoir. But the Vision CE2 rebuildable centre post was recessed meaning quite a tight draw unless screwed in with a wobbly fit on standard pen type batteries. The CE2's need the centre post protruding for the ego-c/ego-t type batteries to make sure you do not seal up the air hole/intake route. I think the reason the CE2's are so efficient is that there is minimal surface area exposed to air so minimal evaporation and they are actually quite well sealed inside as well due to tip screwing down onto seal.

The PG does dry my throat a bit I would say, (had a nasty sore throat one morning for a short while just a few days in, after a heavy vaping session) just got some VG juice so I'll get back to you on that.

Oh, yeah, and a whole new use for ashtrays, storing components of dismantled atomisers, and quenching ss wick LOL

bamboo fibre thread supposed to be best wicker... but hemp also supposedly good... and sure I do not mind a hit of burnt "hemp" LOL

(not that it will burn if coil made right and not dry, got to wait for kanthal and NiCro from 2 different suppliers)
