That heisenberg juice is pretty nice and i don't even like menthol or liquorice It's a "clever" juice as you get the menthol hit a taste of black currant and then a slight aftertaste of liquorice.

On another note I'm using a 0.25ohm dual in the Uwell now (the 1st 0.50ohm coil only lasted 12 days, a bit disappointing) and the Kanger mini reported it as still 0.50ohm, it was because i answered yes to a "new atomiser?" You only have to answer yes once to that, unless you change to a different tank again, doh. Anyway the point of mentioning this is the premade coil reports as 0.27ohm, you'll never get an RBA/RTA on any mod to report back the exact 0.25ohm of the coil(s).

Not the old one no, remember I have the platinum one which reads down to 0.15ohm.

Is there a vaping forum that you guys would recommend, I'd like to do a bit more reading about TC mods and just about everything else as well, but I want to get some unbiased view points and personal experience as opposed to just reading the manufacturers guff.

Has anyone with a uwell tank tried to get the glass out when cleaning? Mine was welded together, if your is as well, little tip, put on some rubber gloves then the 2 parts wont slip when you try to unscrew them. Mind you, still need a decent amount of finger strength to undo them.

hopefully i should too!

Will make a nice change and break up the other flavours, be nice for an 80% VG mix, tad smoother. If spot on(which it is going to be) will order 2 or 3 bottles and make a large batch up.

Ok small amount of reading later, I think planet of the vapes is going to be the one for me.

I now get what the TC thing is all about, consistent temp whilst vaping to get my prefered type of vape, and keep it there every time, also the ability to change that depending on the juice and coil set up, so I think that will actually be the direction I head in for my next mod.

Cheers guys, it's nice to be guided through this mine field by those that have gone before.

Clapton coils here I come.

P.S, New tank is in a different league to the Kanger, takes a little bit of getting used to but with the dual coils and it being a dripper style tank, it's really flavoursome and very airy and cool vape, tad on the juicy side, as in it goes through it a fair bit quicker, may have something to do with me enjoying it a little more Top fill is the way forward, just have to remember to close the air holes when filling it and it's a doddle.

Really liking it, think Ill have to splash out on a koopor tc mod and the V3 or ulwell crown for my birthday.

Glad you're enjoying it ditchy
The TC vaping is pretty good,I've had this going on the crown@0.15ohms and is a nice smooth vape,the crown is a really nice airy tank and is my 2nd best tank,with the top fill makes it less hassle when refilling
My favorite tank is the v3,goes one step further with the top side fill so can't be beaten on refills imo,also with a little twist of the tank it closes up the juice holes giving you flow control.

I'm dying to try the Clapton coils but half a morning spent trying and failing to build a dual I gave up in the end Going to have another go tonight!
Have you got some premade claptons or the wire to make your own? You will have to let us know how you get on.

always good to have a few tanks/mods, easy to swap flavours and can never have enough back ups!

v3 is great for the top fill(best top fill yet imo) and the base probably is too.

Crown and tfv4 are still awesome tanks though, defo the top 3 for me

The variety of coils/bases for the tfv4 is crazy, cant wait to the triple clapton RBA out!

Cheers guys, I went for this tank because it was a way to do the rebuildable coils as well as dual coil and still be able to use it on my kanger mod, also thinking for the future a little bit it's a versatile tank so will be interchangeable between various mods.

They had the ulwell crown but that would mean new mod too to get the best out of it, also lad in the shop had the bellus and let me have a go on his as well as a bit of a tutorial on whicking and 80ml of juice thrown in for free.

Sounds like I'll be getting the V3 for my birthday, is it ok for the dual clapton coils?

This vaping mallarky is quite addictive and I can see why you both have various set ups, the more I vape and try other things the more I get it.

I bought 10 pre made coils for this one as I wanted to get started and have back ups £3 for 10 coils was a bit of a no brainer as that's like 5/6months worth which will give me plenty of time to get my head around building my own.

I think I'll buy a few claptons come the time, for similar reasons.

Really getting into the finer nuances of vaping, which suits me as I've always been a bit of a connoisseur with most things I have an interest in.

V3 should be ok with claptons, only thing to watch is coils size due to the gauge of the clapton. May need a 2mm coil/s for example , as they need to be close to the posts so not to come into contact with the chimney part when fitted together
Not claptons, but overhead pic to show what i mean. The top of the coil(and bottom coil), look at the 1-2mm space to the base diameter(then an O ring then outer diameter of base). This is where there needs to be a small gap, or it will just short out.

Well I failed miserably again with the Clapton wire again
Just too low on the ohms for them to run,realized the Clapton wire I bought is made from Ni200,saying that I even tried building some non claptons with a roll of Ni200 wire I've got and once again couldn't get them to run! Definatly need more practice lol

Thing is I like the TC mode as it allows me to set the temperature nice and high and I can keep it going without getting too hot and burning my lips and not one hint of it spitting
I'm now back on the crown as I have some premade Ni200's @ 0.15ohms ,kills battery life and eats juice at a fast rate mind,but is a lovely vape

I just love making my own juice and enjoy making coils,just need to do some more reading and a lot more practice.

A day?!? wow, 5 cell changes for me

Dual cell mod is the answer though, over or around double the vape time

Not sure on the wattage as it's always changing on the TC mode,555*f is lasting a day on the Kbox200.

Yup if it wasn't for the dual mod then I would need as many cells as you have
