13vrod Posted October 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Ive got a .25 build with 28ga and it seams like i have to rebuild everyday I was under the impression titanium lasted longer I've got my temperature set 380 and 25 Watts. This is what my coils look like 12 hrs in. Even worse at the 24hr mark. Any advice would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliange Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 I use titanium in my tanks (RBA) and my drippers because of longevity... I highly recommend Sweet Spot wire .05 for drippers and .04 for tanks. This is pre-cleaned and shiny. Costs a little more than your bulk Ti wire, but well worth it. I usually do 5-6 wraps spaced on 2.5mm comes to about .11 and vape at 60-70 joules... Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliange Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 Forgot to mention this is in TC mode and dual coil for my drippers. Single coil is about 3-4 wraps in my tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_99205 Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Looking at your photo, your coils seem to be heating unevenly and your cotton is definitely burned. Maybe you should lower your temperature, lower your pre-heat power, lower your watts. Also make sure that your mod is in the right profile (1-8) as the profile in eScribe, that you made your settings; it is a mistake that I once made. Also lock your atomizer's resistance with Escribe's resistance reading (not a seprerate ohm meter). Lastly look at the "real time analyser" when you vape, and fine-tune your settings.

john_99205 Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 In that case your mod is sending 200w in pre-heat to you coils which may be the problem. Also If you are using TC, it will be set to Ni200 and not Ti, which has a different temperature coefficient. I would use non TC at about 30w until you can connect your mod to eScribe.

13vrod Posted October 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 I have the 133 boxer version. Is there not a way to switch it to ti mode on the mod itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
