Yay photobucket is sort of working. First up here are the 2wicks-spot the difference!

And here is my new best friend! This was my first wick, not the best one!

 

[Purplefowler]

Ok well it's sort of working!!! Hopefully the others show up later!

Lovely pics there. Is that a purple hue I detect there lol?
yeah the decent wick is on the right..looks like the stuff I got from cloud 9

There is indeed a bit of purple there. The colour came out reddish for some reason but it's a lovely purple/red colour. I got 5 metres of wick and 10 metres of kanthal for about £9 shipped so I'm really pleased. You know me, I like a bargain

If you stick with it it's cheap Vaping anyway I reckon. Trouble is even though I like my RDA I still have loads of other things I like too laying about. Whatever you pay for the wicks etc its pennies per coil at the end of the day.

Think I'll rename this thread..

Theres a good reason I was feeling abit icky. I had saved the other half of my Alice in vape lands sweet tease for when my rta came as I wanted to try it with something special. I forgot to look at the label and for some reason thought it was 12mg when it's actually 18! Doh-what an idiot! It's amazing how much difference 7mg makes! I'll go easier tomorrow

I never vape less than 18mgs and have 36mgs and everything in between. Nothing else hits the spot and I rarely over vape. I know when I'm Vaping the strong stuff though and just put it down more. The 36 I save for days when I don't get the opportunity to vape freely. Keeps me going for hours.

Did you follow any particular video to do your coil making PF?

 

[Purplefowler]

No, Ive read loads and looked at pictures mostly. Most of the videos were a little too long and dare I say a little dull. I just did it and hoped for the best and so far 3 of the 4 rebuilds have been useable to good. I'm looking forward to checking the coils when I've got the provari going but for now whatever I'm doing seems to be working. This thread has been a real help though
