Old thread, but I'm new here
So I thought I'd share a bit...
I had an AGA-T a while back, and it was a well done Genny, IMO. But I had a lot of issues with hot spots and such so I sold it and went back to carto tanks for a while. Back then I was doing wraps with 32AWG wire, and it was a big fat mess... We weren't really doing subohm at the time, and nobody had done microcoils yet, not for another year or so.
Fast forward a bit, and I got a Kayfun Lite+. Around that time is when the original RSST came out. I thought that was a genius design, with the wick hole and bottom being insulated so you can't ground out the wick. So I got one...
And when the Pyrex RSST came out, I got 2 of those...
I gotta be honest, as cheap and crappy as they are compared to other Genny's on the market, the RSST provides a solid vape experience. I have 3 caps, all drilled a bit different from a relatively tight draw to a loose draw depending on the flavor and build I am running.
I still prefer the simplicity, flavor, and insane wicking I get from using SS Cable. I do believe I am using a 7/64" marine grade non galvanized 316 stainless cable. It really is pretty awesome. I tried using 400 SS Mesh around the top of the wick at first, but found that wrapping the top with a thin layer of Japanese organic cotton didn't diminish the flavor, and held juice on the coil better.
I now use a 24AWG NiChrome microcoil at roughly .5 Ohms on my SXmini, and it's been fantastic. I use it mostly for NET juices, and it's got the cleanest, most intense flavor of any atty I own (Kayfuns, various RDA's, Subtank Mini, the list goes on).
Here is a pic of my build:
Sure, it's ugly... LoL... But I'm not out to win any beauty contests, and the vape is incredible for the price I paid! The flavor of ANY well built Genny is going to be hard to beat, even the cheap RSST!
