Those are the ones to get. Got 5 in from RTD, 650 mah instead of 600 on the old ones
Yup i heard. But that's the only thing that could be hindering performance i believe. I'll have to put a fresh build on once again and try.

I basically did this but with cc rayon

trim to deck width. 5/6 wrapped spaced 30awg kanthal coil @ 1.2 ohms but will go a little higher next time as Q suggested to extend battery life. There's some other guides around, I believe Q's got a good one around.
Lovin the new AW's, Higher amps == safer. How long on a battery? Well that depends on the coil and how much you're vaping. Non scientific questimate maybe 1.5 ml of juice +/- .5.
1) The 600-650mAh batteries should typically last about 4-hrs of moderate vaping (in an office type scenario). This is with a 1.2-1.4 Ohms coil.
2) I usually place my coils at the post screws level. The bottom of the coil in line with the bottom of the screws. Like this:
3) For a more stronger TH you may lift it up a little. Remember you can't lift them much else the coil will touch the chimney and you've a short there. This the max I go:

What wicking material is in the first photos? It's kinda shadowy and hard to see
^That was clicked that way to show the space between the coil and the base. The 'gap' for airflow.
That was a SS Mesh wick, under work.

Yep, i use this also...this method warks well.

My coils are this high aswell. But i use 28awg as i dont have anything smaller...any point trying smaller awg?
I only use 28AWG in all my attys including the Spheroid. 32AWG when I'm twisting them.
Oh i see. Thought that may have been the issue.
When you use cotton how far and pointy should the wicks be? i followed the turorial in the link above, but youre wick my friend are huuuge!
Spheroid wicks should be just a mm longer than the base at both ends, i.e. around 18mm end-to-end.
Awesome! Thanks my friend! Will do a fresh build tonigfht, aiming at around 1.3ohms. Btw you know where you set your coils, its like how i do mine. i thought that was the highest you can go, is there bit more space? or is that like the max for 0.28mm kanthal?
Like I demonstrated thru the two sets of pics a few posts back you can do your wick-n-coil setup in two ways:
1) Keep the coil at the same level as the post screws (coil bottom aligned to screws bottom), OR
2) Lift the coil 'over' the posts, but only till its bottom is in level with the top of the screws.
Remember, anything further [upwards] than #2 above - you'll have a short. So, pls be careful.
Got my shipping notification for the Piccoloid in the wee hours of the morning, woohoo!!!
I tried various builds with my Piccoloid. Found best for me to use a 30AWG Kanthal, 1.2-1.3 Ohms with cotton. As Q said, cut the cotton just 1mm out of the base and you will be fine.. I simply love this combo.
I use AW 14500 batteries and need 2-3 of them for whole day vaping
