How do you like that mech I have been eyeballing it. How low can you build on that chip?

I like the mech, I really like the size and the form factor.
It took me a while to get a build on it that worked for me but now that I have it's great.

When I got it there are no instructions on anything to tell you what you could or couldn't run on it and since this is the first Mosfet device I've had...
I found out right off the bat it won't fire with anything lower than 0.2 ohms.

Right now I have the Axial on it with dual coils at 0.21 ohms and it's great.

Apologies no pics. I use the same basic gear all the time though. An aluminum or brass Coppervape mod, or maybe an Elaf Pico Squeeze. Those are the mods I use most days.

I use the following attys:

Advken Gorge RDA
Oumier Wasp Nano RDAs
Trinity Glass Works U.S. 1 v2 clone (a.k.a Trinity RDA)
Hellvape Dead Rabbit SQ (Not so frequently any more)
NaRDA clone

I rotate all these and the mods out pretty randomly. It seems my "constant in hand" is the aluminum CV, with one of the others not far behind if I feel need to hit one of them once in a while.

There's a couple reasons I continually use what I got.

1. I like the gear actually, most of it does what the tin says.
2. I'm often pretty broke and besides that I'm not for lots of bells, whistles, trendy.

So, I don't feel any need to post pictures of the same old same old. If you really need pictures I'm sure most search engines can locate those for you. Copy and paste ought to function in most graphical user interfaces, inclusive of Windows.

Yeah, heard a lot of people whining about leaking like they did on the original. They just don't grasp the fundamentals of proper wicking techniques. My originals didn't leak and neither does this one. And yes, the flavor is awesome!
I hesitated to say anything about this, but wow man. That's kinda rough :)

I saw folks at other forums too with that same seepage issue around the airflow seam on the bottom. You don't think maybe there was something to that? I'm not trying to start an argument and you certainly have FAR more experience than I do. It just did seem to me that there was a consistent issue with at least some of the 2nd version Kylins.

Well, most bottom airflow RTAs "sniffle" a little regardless. The sniffling I don't consider leaking. That is just the reality of gravity at work. But the reports of leaking in the Kylin series of RTAs, I believe, has been greatly over-exaggerated by droves of people that lack the experience to wick them properly. My opinion. I have never had a Kylin in any version to actually leak. Now the original Vaperz Cloud VCMT...that bastard leaked! I threw 3 of those away, they leaked so bad!

Glad to see you built the Sherman! Remember to switch arms while vaping or you might end up with one popeye arm, she's a heavy tank :D
Have the house to myself so I decided to wick it up. Still formulating an opinion on it.

Airflow is perfect for me and you really can't beat bottom air flow. Just not sure if I got the wicking quite right. No leaks or dry hits but I'd like some more popping :) thanks again man!

Does it rattle

Little bit lol. Door wobbles and the battery rattles. I’ve tried every 18650 and 20700 I own and none sit tight enough to not rattle around in the mod, a 30t sits perfect but once you put the ribbon in the door wobble is unbearable. Suppose I could try a different 18650 sleeve and see if that helps.

Maybe take the ribbon out and use the slap method to remove the battery?

Maybe the Sanyo 2070c. Not sure. Could look at specs and see which is taller if any

When I glue the magnets back into the mod I may sand down the inside just a hair so the 30t can be removed easier. As it stands I have a functioning squonker with a few hours of finishing work to do lol!

Well damn that kinda sucks. Unless they make an adapter that would fit a 20700. To make it just a bit taller.
