Built the 2 coils again, but I've done it wrong, as it's come out at 0.3ohms. I can see what the problem is, as coils are not heating from the centre, but from one side, due to post-wire at the other end slightly overlapping the coil. I can use 1/3, 2/4, instead of side-by-side posts, as long as one is positive and one is negative?  |

First RDA at 0.2ohms raises alarms for me right away. Do you need to go so low? That ohm limit is pretty advanced and pretty dangerous even for advanced users. could you try building a bit higher using steam engine www.steam-engine.org/coil.asp?s=dp&r=0.5&dia=0.42&id=2.5are your air holes open enough, never known a draw too tight to puff on an rad like this one. without wicks, were the coils heating up evenly with no hot spots? cotton could be too tight. maybe add a piccy  Sorry to nag, just trying to get you to be safe as well as stinky free Cotton is looking a bit weedy, lol, even though I'd piled loads of liquid in there. (sorry for fuzziness). Have removed cotton now. When fire up, one coil is slower to light up. Air holes fully open ... even with that, felt lungs would collapse. With air holes closed, even more difficult.  |

I'd put in 2 pre-made 0.5's that had arrived in the same post, just for convenience, but have some 24 guage wire. Have only used that so far, for 0.5 single coil builds, although have some 22 guage on the way, in first order from Focalecig. Thank you for the link ... will get to work and recoil/rewick, plus check the present cotton and upload a piccy. Not nagging at all; appreciate advice very much.  |

Hiya Ordered a CLT v2 (upgraded version) from FT. link Soooo easy to build, but am finding it gets very hot (too hot to vape) plus hardly any vapour. Are you supposed to just drip new flavours down, without taking off the case, as the case is too hot to keep removing? I find it a difficult way to inhale too, takes a lot of puff, lol. There looks to be plenty of vapour possible, when I just fire it without the casing on. Had only done single coil builds before now, but was very easy to fit the 2 coils in this case (Ruby Roo's vids are great), and it's showing 0.2ohms. I usually vape around 24-26w. Unsure if I'm meant to raise the watts a lot or something. |

Etsy cases ... I've ordered the rainbow one (called Bikini), without D-ring but with access to charging etc. Was shipped the next day and tracking is very good indeed. Item cost around £10. Shipping just over £7.  Reviews are all great.

Next order just gone in. Had to go for another bottle of the Blackcurrant Menthol (I can see it becoming my ADV). Ordered a bottle of the lemon cheesecake as it sounds lovely and a bottle of skittles. Sorry to be a pain DripDrop Vapour but I've requested different pg/vg ratios, hope that's not a problem. The lemon cheesecake will amaze you, drunkenbum ... gone to my absolute top favourite. Sure you'll love it. Skittles great too. |

I have bad news for you all 9 new flavours are going on tomorrow  how totally terrible, lol ... not!  Going to need a courier wagon delivery at this rate, lol. Plus have just learnt about the cotton bud and drill method of steeping, so will be able to power through new flavours and leave some great reviews! |

Thanks vapee Thank you for advising, and for info that samsungs can react violently ... glad it wasn't a mech I was using, lol! Torchy definitely I'll be ordering from. Will definitely swap the batteries round. Just started vaping half an hour ago (in vape time only) and already 5% down, freshly charged, but will see what happens on next charge, when I swap them round, avec sticker. Hey no problem, the samsungs you have are safe though comparatively if theyre the real deal so would have been fine in a mech, I meant the samsungs you linked to as another option " Samsung ICR18650-32A 3.7V 3200mAh Rechargeable Li-Ion Batteries" are ICR and would not be as safe as the samsung 25R's which are hybrid chemistry. Thanks vapee On peeling off one of the labels, glad to see the 2 I have are genuine. Won't go for the 3200mAh's, but will definitely get 2 more 25R's. Thanks for advice. |

I use it for mixing stickers as well kittyvape, it is a good idea to put a second layer of tape over the writing as e-liquid wild smudge it very easily. Thank you very much VapingBad That's a really great idea; not good when the mixing date or the nic level is smudged, for sure! |

Is it using both batteries? Don't know the mod but if it can run on just one bay test each alone. Not sure letsavit I think I have to use both? Should probably get an ohm meter? |

Thank you very much indeed VapingBad Really appreciate you taking the time to look into this. It's surreal, as, today the 25R's are behaving. Am on 85% battery, after quite a bit of vaping at 30w+. Maybe I swapped them round, without knowing I was, lol. Have taken the sticker off one of them, so I can change them around next time too. Will get a second pair of 24R's, for sure; see if Torchy does them. Easy done, I write a number on them with a Sharpie and cover that with a bit of Scotch Magic Tape (you can use any selotape, but this comes off nicely when you want it to and you can write on it).  (other bit of tape is to pull the batt out and not stuck to the battery, only photo I could find ATM) That's great; good idea! Also tempted by my mixing stickers as well, lol, or could write on the sticker there. Putting tape over will finish things nicely!  |
