    DragonGunner got a reaction from iQuit in 2nd hand vape   
    I vape in the house. I ask permission if in bars or restaurants. I vape in front of my son on occasion but do try to keep some distance between us when I do. I do vape in my car but with the window rolled a bit down to siphon the vapor out. If studies come out that say second hand vapor is dangerous I will cease immediately.

    Just ordered a Kanger subtank mini, 8 Samsung INR 18650-25r's (for my Flaskman vapor flask), one pack of subtank mini nickel occ coils, and tempered ni200 (29ga, 28ga, 26ga) from the UK (couldn't find tempered, anywhere in the US at the time).

    DragonGunner got a reaction from namegame in High vg/Max vg tanks?   
    Not to make an argument out of this but your statement (because everyone's experience is different) is not entirely true. You state "Any Tank" twice which would leave someone not familiar with tanks that "Any Tank" cannot handle a very high VG liquid or that you have tried all tanks in the market (which I find unlikely). This is very misleading in my opinion.
     
    I use a Lemo, a Vox edition v4 Orchid, and also used a Fogger V4 and I only use 20/80 ejuice and I have no problems with burnt hits...ever. Now although I do yet own a sub ohm tank such as the Kanger Subtank mini, I have read and seen many reviews where others are using them with high vg content in their juice without any issues (even the stock non rebuildable coils). For rebuildable coils its all about how you build your coils, airflow, and how you wick your coils. As soon as I get my subohm tank I'm very certain that I will be able to vape my higher VG eliquid through it without any issues at all.

    As with dragongunner, I'm definitely not trying to turn this into an argument...only offer a different perspective. I can vouch for both the LEMO and the Subtank Mini. I regularly run 15/85 juice through both of them. Only time I have had a dry hit on either was when I ran out of juice...and that was a 50/50 blend in the Subtank mini. My LEMO has the stock 1 ohm coil (actually came out to 1.11 ohm on my meter) and I'm currently using the .5 ohm occ coil on the subtank.
    Now, would I ever try to do a high VG in my PT3 mini, Aspire BDC, or Unitank? No. But the airflow on both the LEMO and the Subtank mini is sufficient. On the Subtank mini, the coils and the wicking channels on the coils are large enough that I personally haven't had a problem. Likewise, with the Lemo, since it's rebuildable, wicking hasn't been an issue for me.

    But as with everything else related to vaping, what works for some and suits our style may not work for others and their style. That's the beauty of having so many options out there. Whatever works best is what works best for each of us as individuals.

    Lately I've found my wicking takes much more time than wrapping, and installing coils. At times it gets to the point where I find myself nipping single strands of wick. Talk about overkill and a headache.  But no dry hits is definitely a pay off.

    I agree.  I had to coil up a dripper and get my coffee and easter island fix last night.  I wicked using some weird cotton I was given.  It is an medical grade untreated cotton used for pill bottles.  It is strange it looks fluffy like a cotton ball but all the strands run one direction like Japanese cotton.  It wicks great all by itself, but using the thinner tails has really made a difference.  It probably has made more of an impact in my SubTank mini than it has in the dripper, but it does seem to work great in there too.

    Guess what??? It works on a rda also... Unreal to be honest!!!

    The flavor of a sub par juice from this morning has now been bumped up 5 fold.

    Let's not even talk about vapor production. I thought my builds at .5 were a joke about a half hour ago. I'm now about choking myself!!!

    I always wondered how one person could cloud up a room by themselves...I just did it without even trying!!! Had to turn on a damn fan just to see the TV clearly...

    This is CRAZY good!!!

    I'm so happy I didn't keep this on the back burner like I thought I was gonna have to.

    I finally found after some searching the wicking method that I have described. I tend to thin my cotton tails a bit more than the video describes but I have found it works splendidly.  Enjoy even if its a bit long winded.

    Your very welcome Dragon. And thank you once again!!!

    I still cannot believe how much your wicking method changes things. It is honestly unreal in a very very good way.

    I have always said less is more. But thinning it out like you showed us is crazy good!!!

    I still cannot believe how fast it wicks. I could actually see it being sucked straight into the middle of the coils!!!

    Unreal!!!...lol

    It did alright, but I didn't clean the tank as well as I thought it did and it still had a machine oil taste to it, so I dumped the tank, gave it a nice long alcohol bath rinsed it out, and rebuilt it with 28g just cause I felt like it lol.

    so now it is down to ~0.43ohms putting me right at the limit of two of my 3 batteries (3rd is a vtc5)

    no real point in posting another picture as the build looks pretty much identical other than the wire being slightly thicker. But that 28g dual build really chooches out some vapor and flavor! nice thick billowing clouds so smooth and tasty. very flavorful.

    I have contemplated going back to a single coil 26g build though as the batteries last longer and vapor comes in faster for longer on the battery. getting below 0.5ohms is great for clouds but in a dual setup takes a bit longer to heat the coils vs single coil setups (in my experience anyway) and I like rapid fire builds. all about that instant gratification
