Finally got the NC all set up and running. Wound up building a lot higher than I wanted by accident. I was shooting for a .6 but it wound up at around a .9. Still though, its a pretty nice vape. Wanted to put some 2x 26 and 36 fused claptons in it, but looking at steam engine Id have had to do something crazy like 23 wraps to get each coil to a 1.2 ohm for a .6 dual set up. Any good suggestions for builds in it that arent crazy complicated? On hand I have that fused clapton, 26/32 clapton, quad and dual 28 twisted, some Hive, some "Alien" wire (basically a thick ribbon thats wrapped), Tiger wire, flat twist, helix claptons, and I think some juggernaut wire. Right now Im using 11 wrap 26/32 clapton @ 2.5 mm.
Really dig the mod itself. The only problem I have with it is that the button is kind of sticky. Im worried that one time its gonna stick down and its gonna keep firing and I wont be able to get it back up or taken off in time. Probably would be able to get it off or up before something bad happened, but just dont wanna deal with it.
Any tips for making the button smoother?
Sticky button is the reason you follow the CDR, even if it continuously fires you'll only hurt your build but not your body.
Anyways, you have 28g? Make a Fused Clapton out of that, I have... 8 count of wraps on the outiside, call it 7 full wraps? Anyways, it's .48Ω, just beautiful vape, maybe a tad warm for some, but I have plenty of room such that I could add another wrap (this is in the Avocado). Before that I had .6Ω in a Haze dripper but it was too small. 28g fused Claptons are great for this series build stuff, you could build with lower gauge but for me personally that'd be too low. I wish I had some 27g wire as I think that'd be perfect to hit the size I want with the resistance I want, but I don't and I don't know where to get any good wire like that.
BTW, I don't know what's going on, but "Alien" = decored and rewrapped clapton, typically 3 wire core. I've seen it a lot on the premade wire where they're calling Stapled wire Alien wire. Flat wire claptoned = stapled. Typical chinese factories doing their own thing
.
If you have swivels 28g is simple to make fused claptons, even doing it imperfectly will result in a damn fine vape. I've taken it and space it so it's probably 1/4 less wrap than would be needed for perfect, took all of 2 minutes to wind it down the strands. Still vaped nicely just not as nice as perfect, but still far better than most other builds. Probably close to Parallel builds but it's easier to wrap and install than parallel. I use 40g wire for wrapping though, but again 1-2minutes of running the drill quickly wrapping up 3 coils worth of 28g "fused clapton" even if spaced, worth it.
. It was probably only a second to a second and a half press, and they were big coils so they dont ramp up fast, but they still got hot enough to leave a little clapton patch burned into my finger for a few hours lol
