Tootle Puffers, Part Three! (The Sequel of the Redux)

[DavidOck]

Every part will have some impact on the flavor you get, and you learn to build to suit your taste buds. I've tried the same juice in different tanks with wildly different taste results. If I did want to make a sweeping generalization, I would say that super sugary sweet liquids might kill a coil faster because it builds up the char on your coil, so those might be better for your rebuildable tanks, and avoid them in your factory coil tanks.

Agree, and add nets to the gunkers

I think this is what a lot of people used to buy.

And DO read carefully, they have two versions, one is 100% rayon, that's what you want. The other is a rayon / cotton blend.

Interesting. Can you use the rayon/cotton blend if you wanted?

 

[smacuser]

Would it expand and contract at the same time?

Well, sure, but would sort of defeat the reason for going to rayon. Just remember that either one is better than cat hair

Mehbee would explode?

For about ten years I've been building coils with 5 or 6 wraps of 30g Kanthal wire and have been happy with it. When I went to rebuild my coil yesterday I noticed I was getting low on 30g wire, so I decided to try some 28g wire that I've had for years.

I use 28ga wire, 6-8 wraps w/ 2.5 - 3.5 ID. I have slight commitment issues..

Playing by hand. For the most, 2.5mm, 11 wraps, 26ga Ni80. Averaging 1.2 - 1.34 ohms @10 watts. The ramp-up is a tad slow, but the flavor and vape is a nice experience. (Edit-70/30 vgpg, 12mg Menthol)

And a pic of my coil tool. The line is ground into it for wire insertion point, and to count rotations.

I think there were threads or something in the blended fiber rope that made it great for keeping perm juice from running down your neck in the beauty parlour and bad for making vape wicks. The 100% Rayon ropes are long fibers that are easy to divide lengthwise to make wicks.

That's the good thing about rayon rope. I get two wicks out of each piece by splitting them lengthwise. And it's easy to pull out fibers to get them to the thickness you need.

Sometimes they can go goofy on you though. Like you get a stretch where the fibers go at an angle rather than straight so it falls apart. Or the occasional hard lump. Definitely easier to make a wick than with a cotton pad, for me anyway.

Rayon, for years.



So far

Re "So far", what I meant was that I have enough coils to never run out. Yes - the government will $odomize us. They already have. THAT horse, unfortunately, has not only left the barn; it's already glue.

I don't know why but when Rayon first hit the vape scene, I couldn't shake the thought of those AWFUL double-knit pants my mother used to make me wear in elementary school (late 60s, VERY early 70s).

I stuck with cotton for vape.

I lost all my vape gear in a boating accident...along with my guns.

And even the glue doesn't stick well, so they keep grasping at straws (It's full of straws..) to find something that will.

Excellent point.

What are the idiotic PMTA numbers again? 15-20 approvals out of 4-5 MILLION applications?
