I can listen. Just not to pwople saying nothing but im gunna explode. You guys didnt even say why i would explode. And guesse what, i didnt explode. This thing is working like a charm

You aren't taking proper precautions. No ohm meter, starting with dual claptons. You don't learn how to ride a bicycle on a harley. Start simple and get educated on builds and battery safety. You thought your battery was 25a and it was 20a. Things like that is how people get hurt and we are just looking out for you.

If your new to building that's a smart idea.. you want to know your battery's well.. theirs charts that show how much amps you can pull on what batters for how long.. 1 second pulls can get up to 80 amps on good battery's and with a hot build 1 second is plenty

im new to building on a mech but i can fucking build some crazy shit on regulated mods. Case and point, 20160112_211427.jpg 20160112_211427.jpg 20160123_231033.jpgStill got alot to learn and want to start getting into finer guages but on a build for regulated i got thst skill. But i learned in a regulated where their is a saftey net if i go to crazy. My box ust tells me no if i dont work. But on mechs, my skills just are not up their where im confedint that i wont explode. And plus people like chef and a few ithers in the coil porn section put me to shame, so im not trying to toot my own horn so to speak. Just boasting a littlw bit with a dose of humble i guesse.

Trust me you haven't fixed your itch, wait until you try something with low voltage drop and you'll fall in love.

Im drinking heavily so forgive me if i missed it.

THIS is why people might be trying to help, too.

Heavy drinking and building a mech doesn't mix well. Nothing wrong with hanging in the mech section, it's recommended, but sober up to learn your stuff, man. Seriously, people are lookin' out for you.

Hope all are having a lovely evening. I'm fighting with my starre tank, hubby says it tastes fine but I just changed the coil head and it has an odd taste to me. Hoping it just needs broken in ick.
Is the original or the pro?

Proof again why I just need to buy another herakles though. I keep trying new stuff and idk why at this point, just wasting money I guess. The starre is OK don't get me wrong, just can't figure out why it tastes funny.

Again, this is why i love this place.
@boat, hucks speaking 100% truth. If you're drinking put the mech down and don't try to learn about them. Read when you're sober so you take more in and go regulated when drinking.
All im doing is vaping the mech right now. Im way past mech building. I dug out my multi meter from when i was a mechanic and im checking the voltage every 10 or so hits

So build away and wait until tomorrow before you start drinking again and check, test and make sure everything is good to,go before you fire it. Just don't wanna see you become a statistic .

Those damn coils have a longer break-in. I only use the .15ohm nickel coils in mine the beat the ni crown coils. Never did like the regular starre coils....funky taste for like 20mins.

Last thing i want to do is give vaping a bad name. I actualy got ran off my mustang fourm becuase i used vaping to quite smoking. It was worse becuase i started falling into the hobby side of vapeing.

I just got my balrog today.. keep in mind I am a heavy sub ohm dripper kinda guy.. and this thing is actually really nice. Flavor is great and preforms really well for being a little tank. Have to say am thoroughly impressed with this little guy.

A friend of mine shot a hole in his wall cleaning his .45 Colt pistol while drunk..the shot barely missed his 7 yr old boy..wouldn't think alcohol and mechs would mix well either...lol

Holy fuck. It suprises me how many people have no respect for guns. Only time mine were loaded was at the rang, i was carying with the hammer on a dry chamber. (It was a single action revolver) only time it was ever pointed in anyones general direction was jf i was prepared to end them. (Long story about a time in my life thst i really sont like talking about.)

Ditto. Loving the tank, even though mine is kinda finicky. Speaking of tanks.... @always9988 I ended up PIFing my Starre, I just couldn't get into it. Is the Herakles strictly a DL tank? I hear so many good things about that one.

I put a .40 through the radiator of my caravan a few years back, got tired of pumping alot of money into it
Baahahaha!!! When I worked on the river we pulled my old truck in with the fleet boat. We just wrapped a headline around in and pulled it off the bank. Haha

Had to ram the thing 3 or 4 times with the push knees

My tank leaks a little bit when I fill it. I take off the AFC, dry off the bottom really well, close it back off completely, then fill. Then I have to keep my eye on it and clean it up a bit, because it always leaks a little after that. The flavor, though! I'll put up with the ritual, I've had a bit of time to get used to it. A couple people have said the same, while others have had no leaks at all.

i just took the airflow ring off. Im not to impressed with the tc coil but the power coils are great for flavor. And it has a decent cloud for a tank. I get a little weepage when i fill but nithing horible. a

I think the original? Got it from halo, basically rebranded starre tank. Was trying to support the folks that helped me quit, and they were having a sale.

Ugh so its not just me. I haven't liked tc so far and bought 2 packs of kanthal coils. Damnit

I think it depends on how you use it really. With the stock drip tip its a bit different than the slammed 510 tip I use. I kinda go back and forth between dl and mtl depending on my nic craving, the juice I'm using, and the airflow etc. There is a good airflow in it and can change it from barely any to a ton, based on preference. But I've found it really shines at 50-60w with the .6 coils personally. It can go higher or lower if you like more heat, but for 99% of my juices (mostly desserts) its perfect somewhere in there.

The best part is I can't get it to dry hit at all until 80+ watts. I got this after hating everything about the subtank because it was constantly dry or burnt (I'm a chain vaper) and it was a night and day difference. And so far haven't had any leaks, I drop it in my purse several times a day and leave it on its side and everything lol
