So, I wake up like too-damn-early o'clock, decided I'd make a burger and work on my new Orchid RTA.

Pics of the burger are on the other camera..oops..but here's what I did with the atty so far.:

14 wrap dual-coils of 28 gauge Kanthal, wrapped by hand on a 1.8mm screwdriver and flambed. Not totally perfect, but good enough for me.




The stages of burn-in:

10W - testing and checking center heating is go.




15W - Starting to cook now, spreading the warmth around.




20W Full burn - "Lookies Maw, I mades me a lighty-bulb!"




I think it got a tad warm. It actually gave it a 'purdy burnished treatment..heheh




I wanted 1.1 ohms, by gawd I got it. :cool:



I stil gotta wick it up and stuff...fingers and eyes are beat though. Gonna finish it later. :)

i use 7 of them. no problems with the 510, so far, except that you need to clean the with 91% isopropyl alcohol. if you don't, the ohm meter misreads by .1 or so.

looking at the link, it doesn't look like a cloupor.

I doubt that it is cloupor.
It does do 30W, fit & finish is spiffy, the passthrough works even when charging, and overall it's what I wanted.
No sharp square box like the early ones. =)

i prefer the pass-through mods, too.

i wasn't big on cloupor, though i bought a bunch, until i emailed them regarding one i bought from fluid vapes. fluid had no interest in replacing it, after it died. clouper gave me a full refund, including shipping. apparently, they have a 6 month warranty, that they have never made public.

i bugged them for a while, saying they should improve the 510 by putting in a spring loaded one and telling them that they should trumpet the warranty. deaf ears, though.

Good morning all, it's Friday! CaFF...does that heat up fairly fast at 20 watts or does it take a few seconds? I usually just do single coils

Oh yeah, at 20W it'll heat 'em to glowing in about 2-3 seconds when dry like that. I didn't see any point to using 30W just to dry-fire the coils.

It's a 1.1Ω build for my 18mg juice useage, so it really doesn't need the power of a super-sub-ohm one. :)

I've tried a 0.9Ω single coil RDA with it and at 15 watts even, it works fine. YMMV....I'm not a sub-ohmer type.

And morning to you all

And, to you as well. :D

Love the pic..heheh. After that build, I had myself a nice cold 6AM-on-Friday beer with a shot of Louisiana hot sauce to chillax... :D

Must be getting old...had to use a damn magnifying glass to keep track of all those winds and my fingers/eyes kinda ache. But, I only need to build RTA's like that about once every couple months, so it's all good.

Was just curious, thinking about getting that god mod that Foggy has but vaping that hot i am sure it makes more sense to go double coil...to early for cocktails...maybe tonight, should be basketball or hockey game on tonight, no plans tonight
