Today I got the brass CuV & the brass toned 22mm diameter Goon, FastTech squonk pins, the Odis. I did a build with Clapton on the Goon after using a FastTech squonk pin in it. Had intended to do dual coil and run at about net .4 ohm. Well, I did an eight wrap single coil instead. It read out at about 1.6 ohm, figured that was good enough.
Not sure I appreciate the extra heft to the brass version. I like the color and the notion that it is brass. That aside, prefer the weight of the SS/Aluminum alloy version a bit more. Don't misunderstand, intent upon keeping both. Will get used to the weight of the brass one.
@Hank F. Spankman, I can see why you do like the Goon. The clamping method is kind of nice. The chamber is set up to provide flavor more so than cloud, at least imho. Miss a chuff cap drip tip on the Goon, its drip tip for me is teeny. Jury for me is on it is still out. First impression is it's kind of meh, for me. Might think it's better than Wonder Bread after a week, or might not. I'll see and be fair as I can. --- Did a little vape porn looking and found what I desire. It's a wide bore drip tip
Goon. Going to buy one here in a little bit. Having a do nothing day today. (

I'll build something on the Odis tomorrow. It looks rather interesting, as though it might be better than Wonder Bread right off the bat. Not sure though. It too has a teeny drip tip.
Not keen on the teeny drip tips. They lean more toward a hotter vape for me. I like a cool vape as in part that's why I got away from cigarettes, didn't like the heat being sucked down.Tried using more air but that takes away the pressure of the drawing on the vaper, on the Goon. Hm, might be I just need to figure out the how of it to suit me. *sigh, smh* Well piss, ... just might be I like a chuff cap drip tip too. *shrugs*
ETA Mon Dec 12 21:58:49 EST 2016 : Went ahead in attempting to build on the Odis. Bah! I could get a 3M Fat Daddy pin it to fit snugly. Then, the insulator holding the positive clamp came unseated. There was no getting it reseated effectively. I used the M3 pin because the stock squonk pin that comes w/ it also let the positive clamp come unseated, the pin was too loose as well. So, figured the 3M pin would keep it seated. Ha. *smh* I put it aside until I can focus without frustration.
Also swapped out the Clapton in the Goon for a dual coil set up using 28awg round Kanthal. Wrapped both at 3.5mm ID and I'm netting about .65+/-~.02/3. Vapes like a charm now.
Guess I'll not bother with the fancy wire too much, as I'm not keen to tote around a two or twenty battery mod to push fancy wire to achieve what I'm doing w/ simple wire on one battery.
