YW man I am glad I could help in someway. I think you will really enjoy Vrod when your time comes. Just keep in mind it would not just be a head change but rather the head & nut to go Vrod , your bowl is still compatible as well as your Sh carb cap. I really do appreciate the kind words greatly. I also do somewhat agree with you on the coil selection but NV has there reasons for using the coil they do and I don't want to open a can of worms discussing it. I also understand it is the coil they use and sell so designing something around it was the way to go and I am kind of glad they did as there coil now somewhat locks in and makes a perfect contact with the top and bottom of the head and nut. Something that could not be achieved all the time using the Sh or Wa bc not all coils are created the same and you get that guarantee using there coil with the 4 wraps and larger height than most coils plus I am sure it being larger than most it is dispersing heat better but what do I know, I am no scientists lol. A adapter would be cool though and I am sure if someone has some soldering skills and time on there hands it shouldn't be to hard making them and even making a few $ at the same time. Who knows maybe NV will listen and whip something together, they have always been good at listening to everyone on this forum even if they are not physically present .Thank you for this. Looks like I’ll be sticking with my auber and showerhead for now. I’m honestly still very interested in the VROD even though I don’t do double deckers much. I feel like it would be good to have and I’ve been considering a wrap around anyways. Looks like this is the head I’ll get if I do decide to get another. I appreciate the quick response and we all appreciate the testing. Your opinion is always valued here and you have always given me great advice. Looks like the Vrod is gonna be amazing and I’m sure part of that is from your testing. We all thank you
I just wanted to add I think that it’s kinda lame that the Vrod only works with newvapes coils because I believe that the 5 pin XLR with the wiring Dnail uses should be standard. I don’t own any mini XLR stuff and I do not plan to. I guess if I got the v rod a sottrring job would be in order. That’s a fine solution and I’m sure I could figure it out, but there’s gonna be a lot of people doing this. Newvape could make some quick cash if they got adapters or sold a coil that worked with a standard XLR box like the Dnail or auber or hexnail. They could charge at least like $50-$70 and people would buy them. They’re gonna need that specific size coil for the VROD. Just an idea instead of giving that money to other coil companies. And yeah you sell a coil for them to solder with, but I think there is more money to be made if newvape would offer everything you need because people are gonna end up buying a new vape coil; a standard XLR coil and then soldering them when newvape could just sell a more expensive option for people who don’t use their mini XLR. Basically people would pay for the convenience of not having to source two coils and solder. Just a thought, cuz I will not buy a new vape box.. I have 2 auber controllers and a basically useless errlectric that has tought me to stay the fuck away from proprietary coils.
