Nothing wrong with the wood at all. A couple have cracked and is why i have changed the location of the outer cosmetic grooves to the thicker part of the wall. The reason for the change is to further the robustness and accommodate a wider range of stems As well as makes the size much more...

Never knew that, thanks. Does that include the high temp O rings as well? This is basically the same material. :sherlock: Guy's, this is what I need to know as better to stop my change before in "too" deep. Would be too bad though, as the silicone is fun stuff to work with. This is, after all...

Just used a small amount of the same mix and apply a thin layer and use like a glue. Going to make a jig to keep the halves aligned perfectly. Eyeballed the first. Hope you didn't get any of that on you. lol Please elaborate. Is there a safety issue here or is silicone just something you have...

Hey guys. Have had a busy couple days off so far. Good news in the works. I have found a technique which is working for the new silicon rubber outer shell. Tried a couple ways to to make as a single piece but failed miserably. Mainly because of the inner ridges, a two piece solution was...

Finally have a couple feet of tubing and have got everything in place for another 9 units to be made up. I'm off for a couple week and will commit to completing these units. I do have another 8 feet on the way and may be able to do more then 9 if I get in time. Really streamlining my technique...

@WakeAndVape, and others if the 510 connector is giving grief, for a couple bucks, grab a 510 heat sink and dedicate it to the project. Moving forward I'm going to be using the round top screws for the center post rather than the flat top.This will give a little more depth with the center...

Had it being working previously with that Cuboid? Did you reset the mod (remove battery) and try again as well as look for broken/loose element etc.? Went through this a couple pages back and it ended up being just a mod reset.

Absolutely. That's the core intention of this endeavor. Making a decently working device which is wide open for different coil designs and keeping it as easy and cheap as possible to make changes or updates. Keeping all the ideas and changes open source with no hidden secrets or tricks. A...

I think that coil will definitely have a hot center. But never know for sure until it's been tried. I'm quite satisfied with the result of the V coil. The heat pattern is like a horse shoe. If you look closely at the first picture I posted above you can see it. Here is a picture with less heat...

If it had a user flow control, the device would not be able to regulate the temperature. This is not a lighter and they use a fairly unique way of heat feedback to regulate. As OF pointed out the off/on switch is upstream of the regulating value. The value uses two different types of metals held...

Just an update for those on my waiting cache. Unfortunately, the new thinner diameter, thicker walled tubing has not worked out. Too many alterations needed for it to work. Also, decided it would cause compatibility confusion down the road. I have now got two orders in for the original 14mm...

I think you'll find your answer here. Another Skyda fake product. The blog, from our friends at PIU, states the plastic holder for the heater breaks down over time.

Oh, the thought has crossed my mind. :\ Quite a few times actually...lol Currently a little pricey. At least comparing to a spool of SS element wire. Cool, 2 sizes already, bet larger will not be long. This stuff is changing so fast. JoyeTech has new firmware again even. v3.03 comes with a...

So I was looking at the new vape stuff and stumbled upon a coil called a Notch Coil. These ones measure 5mm diameter and 9mm in length. Stainless steel @.25 ohm. Just thought I'd throw this out there as thought it was a good idea, and easier for some, if we could find a little wider....

Yep, very pleased. Purposely, over defined the area slightly...lol. But believe it or not it tasted that bad and did not combust even though it looks like it. I'm not the guy to ask about taste, but I swear it tastes sweeter now too. Good enough that from here on out it's going to be the...

My theory is that 1 watt translates to X energy which in turn will be Y amount of heat. This should work out as a constant. If this is the case than the efforts to transfer the energy "evenly" without wasting it is the goal. Agreed, using a finer material will work as it covers up the open air...

These ideas are great guys. Tried the twisted coils ect, and in the end, it all comes down to a watt is a watt. Wastage is the key. I did many experiments in the Bulli thread in an effort to gain the best efficiency for battery life. In the ecig domain, surface contact is more important so don't...

Maybe I'll take @Dan Morrison's advise and switch to mineral oil. Thanks Dan! Likely easier to find and cheaper than the linseed oil. You might try a toothbrush with soap and warm water? It really should be dissipating. You are correct in the mouthpiece being made from the new ss piping. Could...

Coil mod alert!! In an effort to reduce the hot spot I am currently testing a new coil design which is so far working out quite nicely. I call it the V type, because as the center coil goes down it get smaller as it goes. Forming a V with an open center at the top. Making it is not all that hard...

I would assume, (bad word) there is a brief sample and hold for the display. If not, we would never be able to clearly see anything as would be changing so fast. Remember now, the target will be an "average" of the over/ under shoots.
