The system reduces output by about 5-8 watts at comparable voltages and therefore less current draw. Technically, you've reduced a 120W heater to 60 watts. I run it up to 80 because the FETs are rated for 120 watts and nothing gets remotely warm except the main VC coil. And at the right wire...

That' it @Edgedamage . After deciding the -very center- of the coil of 31 turns, the center is on the ID. I have a hobby knife with a broken tip that I use to scrape the insulation from the wire. I make room to protect from the other wires by crowding the wires away from this center wire as...

Yes, that is what I am describing. That is a center-tap connection. These are the the two legs - This also makes the inductor stable [3-legged stool]. @Mono Loco - a good friend has a pacemaker. he says he 'feels' magnets nearby. Not sure what that means. I wear wireless headphones...

Hey @Edgedamage - I am running the board on two inductors with a shared core. I count windings directly to the middle and scrape the insulation so I can add positive potential right there. Effectively, I cut the coil in half. It should cut the down from 100uh to 50uh. Within an IH circuit...

Thanks @kineticsam - clears that up for me.

Learning curve/growing pains - They're in this for the long haul. They have every incentive to come to terms with these delays. The fact that we get updates at all is a positive sign for me. They did offer a refund and if you got a good power brick, you probably get a refund and a Fluxer Flix...

Might as well start collecting them here... #3! Any functioning and finished stand-alone IH is worth $99 even if it takes a year to get here. I figure it's an investment. It'll get here when it gets here. This is like depending on Alaskan bush pilots. Here's the schedule and here's the...

By lowering the voltage on an ZVS circuit, you reduce the radio-frequency coupling. This coupling is what causes electrons in the metal to become highly energetic where in reality they are just getting their shit yanked back and forth and they get upset about that and get hot-headed. And...

I cracked a wooden stem with my '20-M tip. No problems with any other tips in my stems yet this tip broke 2 of them. Turns out the '20-M was more prone to rolling the o-ring making the diameter of the o-ring bigger and my homemade stems gave way. I learned quickly that you have to twist the...

And an IH is reborn! :cheers: Looks fantastic!

Funny, to clean off the Moad Dib, I just glow the screen red and no more whisps of smoke. Perfectly clean once the hooks get hot. No mess, No fuss :cool: @Duba - about 5" of a wooden stem is enough for the vape path to cool significantly. This is a straight as a straight vape path gets so...

There are but you have to hunt for the 10A output. They typically disguise themselves as emergency battery jumpers. If and when @mr_cfromcali gets a chance to breath, I'm sure he'll look into some option if people haven't already. I know I'd be using a home-made DIY cell pack. You can get...

Did someone remember to ask how to clean the DynaCoil properly and completely?

I see a theme coming... Bright nickel plate and a red scanning beam. Or "black chrome" for K.I.T. Sound effects anyone? :disgust: Great work @mr_cfromcali !

Water is a good idea. Natural thinner for ISO.

I cheat with the VC. I know how to make it breath this stuff. I draw the load with a dip&twist in the stash and I use the inverted CCD. And the cap has been relieved. I can vacate a cap in one draw to dark ABV... that hurts though. Can't do that with the LB. LB is for a session. VC is for...

@notams - I didn't mean soak the cap; I meant accidental seepage of a tiny bit of ISO under the clicker while wiping with a q-tip. I have a feeling DV is rather sensitive to liability if something happened along those lines on a regular basis. Speculation, I admit fully, but could this be why...

Yea me too. Haven't seen one that can do what the screen does. Getting a grind as fine as I like will take a very good grinder with a very fine grind plate. I'm very happy with my process and the results. It can certainly be improved. But it works in the LB and the VC. I've seen some kind...

I found out why ISO is a bad idea but it has nothing to do with flame. It has to do with vaping alcohol. Methylated alcohol, to be clear. Alcohol does remain under the clicker if that is what you happened to clean. Even with an intent of only removing soot from the outside of the cap, it...
