You're going to love the Rafael X, it really is a series Mod fans wet dream! Just got it in the mail, had some pre-made 316L SS 26x2/32 gathering dust. 5 wraps around a 3mm di, hell yeah. Things I don't like but can live with are
1. Neutral post wobbles a bit
2. Hate the swirl thing in the drip tip
3. No air flow adjustment
This RDA really is a game changer IMO.

Running on a series wide open works well, but yes the afc is very limited. It's a game changer with the neutral post, can't wait to see what is going to come next.
I'm excited for that, right now being able to run SS fused Clapton's with larger core wire has me excited. 317L is my favorite and smallest gauge I can find is 32. Plus wrapping 32x2/36 and 34x2/38 is a bit of a PiA.
I got it all the way up to 40g. Check this out! LINK for SS bundle for $25
That's 316L, I've been getting it from Kidney Puncher. Can't find 317L smaller than 32
Half of it is having proper swivels that can spin under pressure. Btw has anyone seen or tried that new magnetic swivel setup? If so... want to share any specs or links?
I can link you to the Magnets needed..Half of it is having proper swivels that can spin under pressure. Btw has anyone seen or tried that new magnetic swivel setup? If so... want to share any specs or links?

nice! many years ago i had an odd job,, i worked a place where we would take a lot of dif metal wire (including gold and silver) and would draw them down thru dies,,, down to 1/10th of a human hair.........after that process we would spin them on our house made/designed machines.......our goal was to create a certain kind of thread to be woven into a 'fabric'.. this fabric was to be nearly bullet proof,, (yes we had a govt contract) .. at the time only the chinese had perfected it..........we had such a difficult time getting enough thread for the fabric............all of the 'scap' became fine jewelry thread,, dolphin antenna's and other items in the tech industry.. ie,, using a single strand 'nicked' a certain way to replace a chip on a computer board..........all kinds of crazy stuff. ...your 'ring' reminded me of it. been catching up on the posts all night......coil porn... lol. surprised i havent ran across any mention of rayon,, just cotton,, and the funny guy with tampons.Beadalon Spool Tamers....they do all the spacing and claptoning...I just point them at a angle and hold one side so they dont spin around the wire...All I do is use one finger to guide/hold the spool with the spool tamer and press the button on the drill...once the length is done I cut it into sections and if Im doing more then 3 cores Ill do another length.
Im rocking that 9 Core as a Ring...I may clean it at some point in the USC and try putting it in the Coo TS RDA though.

You always come thru. Appreciate it. These magnets will hold enough tension to clapton staples cleanly?
They should I havent received mine yet but from what Ive seen they will hold a great amount of tension as long as you secure it to a big enough nut and keep it close to the Magnets.
I'm kind of skeptical of how stable this setup is going go be, I've got all the stuff necessary so I'll play with it tomorrow but I truly doubt you'll be able to hold enough tension to make things that pull on the wire.
Hahaha everyone's been there. Liquor sleep and try again tomorrow. A few tips I've picked up on though, make sure the ribbon is totally straight or youll hate life, wet it a little, and after you tape one end stroke it perfectly straight before you tape the other end.
It needs to be perfectly flat off the spool, then make sure you coat your fingers in VG and slide it up and down the Ribbon....Try "Boxing" the Ribbon by pinching the corners and sliding your fingers up the lengths, once they are stacked wrap some thinner wire around the end and a bit away from the end and then put it in the Flat space between 2 chuck jaws when starting...After you get about a inch wrapped up then undo the chuck and put the claptoned part in the center of the drill and then you can go faster. Make sure to keep sliding the thin wire slider up the length as you travel also.
holy shit

Its K.Bee wire, I use it as "practice wire but its clean and pretty decent....I would say its about the same as LV wire.

Hell yeah, cant wait to hear what you think about it, and to see what ya gonna throw on it.
Ive vaping on Aliens, A basic 34 core 26KA1/36N80 (5 Wraps/3mm ID) on the Cricket.....ITS DAMN GOOD and at .38 Ohms! Everyone needs one!!! Ill post pics and crap shortly!
Can't wait to hear your feedback about that rafale rda. Very interesting Design I was thinking about picking one up but I'll wait and see what opinion everyone has of it.
Hey guys the underground came with this guy to vape single cell mode
Any idea if this goes on button side or rda side? Never used one of these...

Is that a battery? Doesn't it need the insulation wrapper or something?
No thats a 18650 Battery Dud...you can make a Series box into a normal 4.2V type of mod using it...
I dont mind it, its alot like a space Twisted Messes RDA or a Phenotype if using it as a 2 Post. I really like the airflow it has wide open!
Like a normal Series Build....like a Switch!
Not yet...but i wouldnt hesitate on getting it..
Yeah, I just did a search for Zamplebox and found the post. I'd estimate I vape at least 210ml/month, but that's being conservative. I get a 120ml bottle of something I know I love and between two and six 30ml bottles of various other flavors each month, depending on the size of my existing stash. I don't necessarily think Zamplebox is great, I just think it's a good way to get introduced to new flavors and brands without dropping a ton of cash. I'll give some of those other sites you mentioned a look. I only plan to be on Zamplebox for 3 or 4 months, just enough time to learn about some promising juices and companies, then I'll drop my membership and buy bigger bottles of stuff I've learned about there on my own.
I see I vape between 2000-2800mls in a month so I couldnt imagine using Zamplebox for getting my juice..I guess its good if your just getting it for variety testing and not for savings or bulk juice.
Holy shit brother that's a lot of juice! You vape in your sleep too?
Nope, just use alot of juice....it helps to have a slew of mods going at the same time
Boreas or Vapemail thread I believe...you dont even notice or think of rewicking them in that thing...the flavor is damn good for ever and it almost never seems to diminish! Those look pretty damn bad though!I forget what thread it was that Raymo showed pics of his gross coils. I joked I should check on my Boreas coils...well I did...bleh.
Totally gross. Just a damn crusty, baked on, burned gunky mess. Totally sick. Funny thing is, the flavor wasnt bad off these shockingly. But I did replace them. Threw on a set of SS 28ss/34k or 36k fused claptons to play with. Been vaping them at 450F, and its working damn good. Getting a little more into TC since I have the Hohm Wrecker G2 coming (hopefully) soon.
But, the moral, CHECK YO COILS SON! Dont let em get all funky. This is where the Alleria has a leg up on all other RTAs.

Ahhhhhh, soo much better!
