Micro usbs are my nemesis, i loathe them. Work ok till you jam the lead in upside down and f ck em up. Ok its user error on my part but square peg round hole doesnt apply to the micro usb port. Ive managed to trash 2 phones and 1 ego one battery. Did I mention I loathe them. They will all be USB C in a few years and they work both ways so do not despair.

My wife threatens to leave me if I ever get anything that looks like a pipe. But I have loads of unused 18350s/22m attys and these are so tempting. Decisions; decisions.

Yeah I just checked again and I think it must have been out of stock. I've got some red writing that says: "ETA 1/16/2018 (in 3 days)"Yea that ETA means ETA with them and IME it is just an optimistic guess or more likely it is their source being optimistic. Had to wait 3-4 weeks (or more?) for them to get a GV Zeus end of last year; they kept changing the date obviously because they just did not have them. When they did get them they where mailed to me same day. I guess you can always cancel if not happy to wait.

Has anybody - ever - encountered a problem with fluff or dust in a usb port? I've got some magic beans if anyone is interested. I would be more worried about juice getting in through the usb; well if I used tanks that leaked I would be. I do however use a usb plug with my sx g class; taking no chances with that.

mikemichelle I change wicks about once a week. Because it only takes minutes; costs almost nought and I quite enjoy it I almost always change the coil/s at the same time but I suspect they could last much much longer.

mikemichelle If you are going to be using Kanthal I have some lengths of 32AWG 28AWG and 26AWG for you to experiment with just PM me. I only use Stainless Steel now so it is going to waste.

mikemichelle Just for starters and to bump your thread can I suggest that 22m is the smallest atty that is going to give you a relatively easy build deck? At that size and single coil one of the doggy style RTAs might be a suggestion. Never used one myself. At 24mm the Vandy Vape Berserker perhaps? Again I have no experience of these tanks but others on here may have and may have better suggestions.

Great stuff Dave. Oddly enough my Australian (virtual) friend who you very kindly wrote a long and knowledgable intro to vaping in OZ for months ago just got in touch with me a few days ago. She too has finally started a serious vaping campaign bought a load of kit etc. She asked me to thank you again for your help.

Yes .5 SS316l is the main wire I use on my single coil OBS Nanos and on my GV Zeus which are currently my main RTAs. I use .4 on my dual coil tanks. I can send you a couple of lengths of it for you to try if you like mate Well that is very kind indeed. I will PM you.

Thanks for that sounds promising. Looks like bargain coils are now out of stock of the .5 you must have started a run on the stuff. Is .5 the kind of wire you would use richard?

come on get coiling I am all agog here. Ok...finally got the time to try this stuff out Its .5 wire. Which is the same size as the kanthal i use. I accidently made it with an extra wrap so this one come out at 0.4 rather than 0.25 ish that i normally make them at. Hit the button...and im not getting that funky taste from stainless that i got when trying it before. Its a clean flavour...it IS firing up bit quicker...feels like a similar hit aswell. I need to take one wrap off it for it to be a like for like comparison to my usual 5 wrap kanthal build. But so far its good. Once ive made it like for like ill repirt back Watch this space! Thanks for that sounds promising. Looks like bargain coils are now out of stock of the .5 you must have started a run on the stuff.
