does it look like the silica will fit through if not folded over if so might try taking a tiny piece of aluminium foil and rolling it on the end of the silica and just fish it through like a fishing hook only other thing i can suggest off the top of my head is to remake the coil a little bigger diameter
Yea, it would fit if not folded over. I got it thorugh but of course now the coil isn't burning correctly,lol. Being new sucks. I know its me so I am not that frustrated, its not the spheroid. I had it buring evenly but at that point I had incredible burned tast. So I could be having multiple issue, wicking issues and coil issues. Hopefully I can get this tomorrow, I have a few more hours to work on it tonight but I am down to my last piece of wire that they gave me....horrible wire at that. they put it around card board so there are kinks every where, every inch there is a kink.

when i get a new atomizer i usually disreguard the wire they include and just use stuff off the spool i got on amazon from temco i paid like 12 ish dollars for like 100 feet i use 28 usually unless im building a dripper for my 100 watt and ill use 24 for that and build subohm ive found 28 to be a good wire for most builds and 1.5-1.0 ohms for most of my builds sorry i couldnt help out more and good luck man

just started watching a review for it by grimmgreen and he refers his viewers to this guy for the build tutorial side of it hope this gives you an idea just a tip with a higher number gauge wire less wraps are needed to get the target ohms that with a lower number gauge wire
Man...his review really makes me want to get this thing going,lol. He has tried a Bitc* Ton of atomizers and he seems to like this one more than most. Ashame all I am getting from it is savory burnt wick flavor lol, had to check my e liquid and make sure I didn't by Savory burnt silica flavor. lol, sucks, Ill be back at it when my wire gets here, should be here tomorrow but I usually get things 1 day after expected delivery.

The spheroid is 16mm so I went with 30 guage wire because I do not have much room, hoping that 30 g is ok.

Now I am having another problem. I got a OHM meter from lightening vapes. I put my build on it and I got 1.4 ohms. I than stick it on my mod and my mod says its 0.4 ohms? I know im knew....but something wrong with one of the pieces of equipment here no? My mod works fine on any other atty. And this ohm meter is brand new. I am getting bummed and losing my drive now. I have been at this for quit a while now.
