Sucks, but I think you made the right decision...fiddling with an autofiring mod while getting on the freeway... not the best time to start screwing anything off. However, I wonder if it did kablooey later and someone got to see some fireworks? ![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
are you associating a stuck button with the .4 build?I just recently threw my nc out of my car because the button got stuck. Not positive the batteries were venting but i wasnt gonna take the chance since the thing would not stop smoking (yes, smoking) and i was getting on the freeway. But i was running a .4 setup and that was an angry vape, cant imagine a .2

I like the Ribbon Method the Best...I never have any tape...kids always take it.shout out to @Iliketurtles for that magic number. just testing it out right now on 28/36. im about half way through a stretch and it looks greatany progress on a jig that can wrap 3 cores?
oh and a trick for anyone wrapping multicore wire via my vape shop dude. you set your cores up and get them straight, then slip a paperclip over them and tape the ends shut so it doesnt fly off when you get your drill going. so far this is working better than anything else i have tried. i think the fact that it has two pinch points with some space in between them really helps.

Nah, build wasnt the issue, i had a shitty buttonare you associating a stuck button with the .4 build?
i dont use the cricket anymore, i actually lost it somewhere on the road, i think i left it on top of my car or something.

Will taking a wrap off make it fit and still be usable on the nc?Made a set of lightly hammered out Staggered Fused Claptons. I was really surprised how perfect they turned out since I was just rushing through them to quickly make a set for my Petri V2 and Noisy Cricket set up, was just cranking the drill not giving a shit how they look and they wound up perfect. After I snapped this pic I tried to put the cap on and realized theyre too big for the Petri...go figure.

Ill wait for a redesigned clone with a better post design...Has anyone picked up a Rafale X clone? I found them at FastTech last night. The machining doesn't look as nice as the authentic. Not sure if it is work the $10 savings...

I really just want my griffin back. Was gonna buy a new nc anywaysI always think about if I have to ditch a mod for some reason. I will def go look for it! Never know what it will look like, might be just fine. NC has tons of vent space. Might just need cleaned really well to get all the melted battery guts out of it!

I build for .38-.4 for Dual Coils...I would try for .8 for a single coil on the NC, something large and beefy to handle the power and not get overly hotOK... very sad right now. Even though this thing is clocking in at .49... you get abou 1.5sec of super dense flavorful nice vape and then hell fire! Mother of all things Holy in this world that is a rough vape! Not sure what is going on as this is only my second coil going onto my NC, but this is a no go for now! Going to have to use this on my regulated boxes for now.
What did I not take into account for? Is it that this is a single coil build and not a dual? The vape was very dense, flavorful and no spitting at all. Just so hot it is like lung fire.
That is what I was afraid of after I made the coil. I was thinking that I should have doubled my normal .4 ohm coil since I was going single. I guess this is how we learn! Going to have to make another one of these bad boys. I like what little vape I get from it and I can do these braids without looking... so I will make another run of it. I wish I had a rafale x so I could make another short run and just add to this one...I build for .38-.4 for Dual Coils...I would try for .8 for a single coil on the NC, something large and beefy to handle the power and not get overly hot
You could make another coil (not the same) but have the same resistance and it will work just fine..That is what I was afraid of after I made the coil.

I did a 5 Core Alien Earlier...Its nice with no ramp up..even with 30g for a clapton!Braids tend to be hot as all hell, you normally have 4 wires or more so it is in effect a quad coil or more and all the wires are in contact so they all heat each other up as well. You can level it out a bit by claptonning the braid to give it some extra mass to heat up but they usually aren't gonna be good for a long deep draw. Like an alien wire is usually 3 cores so effectively it is 3 parallel coils per coil, without the clapton to slow that shit down it would get real hot real fast, it gets hot fast enough with the clapton wire on it.
This braid is 10 wires. I put this build on my g2 in xXx mode at 70 watts at 380 and I get no more than 2-3 sec draw. Then gets hot and funky tasting. Might just call this a failure. Get too low in watts and just doesn't ramp.

I think if you are using more wires than an alien you do need thin wires. Aliens with 26 as cores I tend to use 32/34 as clapton to slow them down a bit. If you put like a 38 wrap on it will just go zero to inferno in 3 seconds.I did a 5 Core Alien Earlier...Its nice with no ramp up..even with 30g for a clapton!
Im using 5x28N80 Cores, Im sure 30KA1 Cores and Wrap would make it a much smoother vape.

You start to get a problem with size is the main issue, I put some 3mm id 3x26 32wrap aliens in the goon and it virtually killed all the airflow just too big to fit in there and not stifle the air - had to take one out.Im using 5x28N80 Cores, Im sure 30KA1 Cores and Wrap would make it a much smoother vape.

I am trying to rethink my clapton building now. I always just use 40k to clapton everything. I'm wanting to build some claptons to give a good dense vape in my conqueror and alleria.

I'm the same way, 40g on everything except my Staples in the Boreas (bought 36g to try aliens, figured I'd take the easy route on my first thick staples too)I am trying to rethink my clapton building now.

I put some Alien Framed Staples in the Alleria, Just make sure what ever you put in the Alleria keep the ID to 2.5mm and make sure the coil fits between the wicking ports for fitment.I am trying to rethink my clapton building now.

Looks good! The most I've done to date is 20X0.5 ply. What's the resistance on that build?Something I made yesterday...a 30PLY .3/46N80 Staple
Thanks Chef! Its a bit low, I may make them into single coils instead but its .05 Dual Coil (4 wraps/3mm Id)...It firest on the Hohm Wrecker with no issues but I like using the G2 for the Boreas......I need more G2'sLooks good!
