1. 36mg nic salt too strong for freebase RDA use. Too much vapor production with too much nicotine can make you 'nic sick' which is low-grade nicotine overdose, and you might even get a full-blown overdose,
2. 40w too high for nic salts.
3. mod is set to 75W not 40W

what kind of cotton are those?

Is the wicking material a feminine-pad???

Edit: This is why the description has both listed - 40w TC and 75w power mode.
Hmm... had no issue with it firing in TC mode, but just the Power mode. Only reason I mentioned it was because the Power mode was selected, not TC. Of course, as soon as Don hit the fire button it would fire up at .10 which is the minimum limit for Power mode. Don's tryin to be tricky lol o_O

Its stainless, resting Ωs is .09.

Started in VW at 75w with .09Ω...selected TC @40w blipped it when it shows .09Ω again... ;)

No trickery

EDIT: If I had my larger gauge wire still, I could of built a .07Ω coil and it would have the same outcome. Fired up on both.

Curses! Foiled again. But how is that possible? Any regulated mod I would have used would tell me the resistance is too low and refused to fire. Really blows my mind that it blipped just enough to do that.

Oh no, I could vape it fine as demonstrated... I blipped it to show the rested ohms, rather than the one it increased to after power was applied.

EDIT: I don't vape remotely close to 75w or 40w tc though, just saying it would work fine in these states at said Ohms... BUT! There is more to it... which is part of the challenge lol

Coils look pristine. If you're planning to dry fire them at 75W, I hope you have another pair. :eek:

Not my normal build these days, I am a 1.1Ω kind of guy and simple clapton ;)

The picture was them installed, pulsed them and wicked etc. for the mod video.

Is the squonk bottle cut? That could be a mess. Maybe it's just a scratch, though.

That’s the name of the bottle.

That was 20 minutes ago. Did you get fed and did you get sorted out? I dont think anyone claimed anyone was wonderful, but I am sure there are some in here.

can't squonk with the Goon RDA

EDIT: Also how TF are you getting .09 ohms on that build???? 2 26g 36mm coils at 316L should not come out to .09ohms

That doesn’t look like a Clapton build.

That doesn’t look like a Clapton build. It looks like a straight up coil made from 316l. I thought they were saying 2 26G 36mm(length) coils. Says nothing about Clapton. Which would give you this.

Then it would look like a parallel build ;)

Does it really look like the leg lengths are 36mm each though? lol

thats 12mm or 1.5 times the the size of the RDA itself

Appreciate the laugh though ;)

This last one has definitely been circled around ;) you guys/gals/in betweens are close to knocking it out.

Just so you all know... the final answer is within this chart for the DNA75+one item pictured. (Duh)

Read the challenge description, and remember the conversation I had in a previous challenge... the answer(s) should then jump out at you.

I simplified the chart too lol

Ok well for two days I've wanted to say that with a max continuous draw of 30 amps, that 20 amp battery won't do. 6.2 volts, 3.7 volt battery, that doesn't sound right either.

Can't hold my own in a conversation with all the calculations and technical stuff about it, though. So I didn't say it.

Lets walk through it ;) Its similar to word problems in school...

Knowns:

75w and 40w modes
LG HG2 battery (and known rating of said battery)

upload_2019-1-26_12-32-26.png


Lets calculate the 75w

75w/3.2v=24.3
24.3a/0.85=27.57a


Now lets calculate the 40w

40w/3.2v=12.5a
12.5a/0.85=14.7a


Now we take said battery being used and go hmm...what is good and not good here ;)


Also, knowing the above draws, goes hand in hand with the input amp ratings and why a .09Ω coil(s) will fire on a DNA75 mod

Where are you getting. 85?

For the battery, it will fire both... but at 75w as you alluded to it wont last long, nor is it rated for 27.xx amps which is the actual draw on those if used at that wattage. Well toward the end charge of the battery...

Said battery is perfectly fine for 40w tc though ;)


Edit:

Fully Charged the draw on the battery for 75w is 21a -

Fully Charged for 40w the draw on the battery is 11.2a

But you always calculate at its highest draw which is towards the tail end of the charge for regulated.

You have contributed so many. You can have a ghetto pass to close it. Push it over, push it over.

At the stated 75 watts the battery isn't safe. Not sure how to word it. Nadalama danced around it a little higher up.

Sent from my LM-Q610(FGN) using Tapatalk

I think this might be the best way to verse it.


At 75w the HG2 is not acceptable to use through the charge cycle, 40w the HG2 is... utilizing Maths and shit ;)

EDIT: Someone Copy Pasta that above and submit ;)

Alrighty. @OmagaWright closed the challenge by quoting the answer so we will accept it and that means we are owed a challenge good sir. Cant wait to see what kind of fine quest we end up on. Standby for #15.

Alrighty. Since we have been working hard at solving broken setups. We are going to throw you all a bone. I am having internet issues at the moment so we are going to do something fun.
