For anybody ( @So619Cal ) askin about that 200w vape. Here's my current and legitimate workhorse.
I am so lovin my new Laisimo F4. All 4 brand new batteries were able to get me through a 12 hour shift and then some. And yes, that is the same tank/coil combo run in the challenge and I am hittin at the max wattage (350w) of the coil. For now. Then it will be back at 100w on the new mesh/strip coils I recently bought. Not as hot as I thought it would be though.

#1. The top is open so its leaking.
#2. The tanks coils require way more power than that mod can deliver.
#3. Mod is in temp control but the coils are Kanthal.
#4. The mod has an internal battery. Assuming a 20S in there is wrong.
Subjective:
Goldslagger usually has gold flakes in it?

Where was it leaking?
Oh I know people vape high wattages, heck I used to vape .10Ω and lower on single 18650 mechs... I just look where I am now compared to then and I have a giggle.
I remember buying a Wismec triple battery something long ago and was all OOH AHH 120w with my original goon...then I went outside with it and sold it the next day lol
Was a quick learning experience for me and I laugh about it truly...Now I have home mods and out and about mods, right tool for the situation.
I in no way judge how one vapes, unless its careless, then I generally say my peace and walk away.
No matter the mod/atty combo, its still better than analogs
I just assumed it leaked out of the airflow onto the table.
That's all four.
I also assumed it was leaking with the puddle its sitting on and from the first photo the juice level looks just slightly less than the next two. There seems to be some drop along side the tank and mod.. its not super obvious but we could all be wrong
Lol I took no offense at all. I typically dont go past 120 mark on anything else I own, but every now and then I get a bug to reach the limits. Maybe one day I will find my combo and tone it down a bit. I still got some learnin to do.Oh I know people vape high wattages, heck I used to vape .10Ω and lower on single 18650 mechs...

Correct. That leak was meant to be from the airflow. Although I doctored it up a bit by just squeezin juice out the bottle on the side on purpose.

1. at the given .13Ω and going by "CDR" (Simple safety, I truly detest CDR) its 32.31a(before sag) , so a tad above the rating... although Mooch did test these at much higher amperage and safe temps, he said its true "CDR" is 30a (Using the HB2 not HG2 as reference, HG2 is only a 15/18a battery and also brown and not adequate for the application)

White shows dirt and imperfections more
While I can agree with that, I was more thinking the lines of the threads, contact etc...
First picture you can see the button housing threads look as some attention is needed, and the hybrid disc has gunk in the one hole... the patina isn't really bothersome
Who knows, could be shadowing... me I'd be polishing it and scrubbing the threads clean then adding a tad bit of corrosion inhibitor.
You'd think it would melt wouldn't ya?
Not so sure about that.Could be worse.

1. Not an LG HG2, its an an LG HB2. What SoCal said, not the right battery for that application.
2. Holes in the positive terminal of the battery.
3.Coils are horribly unevenly spaced apart. Could affect ohm load.
4. Dirty, very dirty. Copper battery terminal looks oxidized and corroded. Could affect the ohm load.
5. Somebody dip that thing in some Oxyclean with bleach. Its not remotely white. More like ivory.
I thought it was Nah Lins?

So far we have dirty contacts Courtesy of SoCal and omega
We also have spot weld by wtmke
Still need one more and I’m going to ask @OmagaWright to pm me and Jwill the next submission if he would be so kind.

I'd love to, but I am out of ideas and stuck at work for 10 hours. At least that gives me something to think about.

Just get it when you can, if you don’t mind. We have a few backups.

I don't see the rayon anywhere.
This must be that new invisible rayon I've been hearing so much about.

Looks like the RTA is missing O-rings...
Don't go nowhere folks. We'll be right back. And now a word from our sponsors.

Wow. Still on this one huh? Its been all work, work, work over here. Fortunately that is calming down.
I am going to whip up an extra special edition one for the next one. Lets get this one solved so we can have some fun. I am going to start pondering on a double patty poo sandwich.

Not sure the bottom magnetic switch would make good contact with the battery, the head of the screw that holds that switch together looks like it is covered with rust.
Coil wires all squished together on the top will undoubtedly be full of hot spots.
Whole mod just looks like it needs serious cleaning.
I'd also agree that the 510 pin won't work properly. If it compresses in the slightest, the battery would come into contact with the 510 pin housing, and thus the frame of the tank.

Last try. Looks like coil on the left has more wraps than coil on the right. For .13 ohm there should be 5 wraps in each coil.
Upon second look, maybe not. Coil on the right looks like it may be touching the post, though. On my laptop it's really hard to see close-up details.

Am I trippin' or does the wire on the left look thicker than the wire on the right?

It looks like the same gauge to me. Things I do see, though, leg lengths of coils are all over the place. Right coil is way uneven, one short and one long leg. Don't know if that has an effect on the coil performance, though.
What is it that's obstructing the wire on the lower coil leg of the right-hand coil?
