    Watched that vid - very interesting to see how he does that build.

    However, if you read the comments below, they start talking about some IPV2's being re-called - don't know if it's b.llshit or not:

    +Daniel PI quality control standards are really low and a few units have caught fire most likely from shoddy workmanship. A vendor made a voluntary recall to customers that had purchased a defective unit. If one thing can't be argued its that china has never had very good quality control and that's really the problem with this device.

    thx for the info, and yes, agree with you, chinese products lack QC. Did you watch Busardos video on the Provari Factory? it was awesome, every single worker on the production chain checking for defects. I just pre ordered a Sigelei100W, hope it is OK (crossing fingers)

    +baal zac I have seen the pbusardo review. JJVapes had one personal unit poop out. Is this what you call "the vape world"? If you have links I'm interested.

    From what I've seen here on YouTube and the Web the IPV 2 has alot of issues!! Seems like quality control is allowing anything to go out! You get what you pay for!!! Great video as always.. Thanks for the share!!!!! Vape on!

    I finally built dual coil that I'm happy with. 12 wraps of 28 gauge Kanthal around 1.5 mm giving 0.8 ohms. It fires up quick producing lots of vapor with a good flavor.

    And this is the best I can do on the Veritas. I don't like it so much but it works.

    Have you tried Vertical coil on the Veritas? They would be easier to mount and reduce the leg length.

    This is a 2x 30g wires twisted dual 6 wrap setup with .5 ohms.

    I did a 28g dual 8 wrap setup with .6 ohms. Cool to warm vape flavor average.

    On the twisted setup. I had much better flavor on the same juice (mbv vanilla butternut) and the taste out of my imagination.

    A simple 10 wraps 1.6 ohm singel coil set up on the helios clone. Not sure about the wire but i think it's 28 gauge kantal. Cam together with the plume vile i bought just recently.

    Very clean build. Looks to be a lot of cotton under the coil though. Make sure there is room for airflow under there

    Yes, there is a lot of wick, but it also has the Deep well in it. but i noticed that once i get a dry hit, there is still a lot of Juice on that bigger wick )on the right. So i reduced to have the wick only on one side to have equal amounts on either side of the coil. means lees dripping and waste. i also squeezed and tiidied up the coils bit more as i got an uneven burn. now i ended up with a .44 ohms coil.

    ---Update---

    I am hoping for my Zenith v2 to come tomorrow, to make more better center builds.

    Boredom and waiting for the zenith v2.
    any suggestion what I should build?
    I got 26,28g kanthal left. Maybe a sleeper? Or should I get some more other wire.

    Here another Toby Atty v2 build.
    26g parallel 8 wraps 2.4 screw .48 ohms.

    (I only started building 2 weeks ago. :) )

    Heat is slow rising to warm vape, vape density is medium good for long hits.

    Another good clean build. If it's taking too long for heating try the same thing, same ohm in 28g. That will give a little less surface area but also a little less Kanthal to heat and will get to temp more efficiently. (Either that or your battery may be getting a touch low. lol)

    I made a 30g 2 strand twisted parallel at 0.28 earlier and quite like it. Not TOO keen on the flavour it gives though. A little bit metallic for me but still produces well. The metallic flavour is less on different juices though. I have been side by side testing some new juices comparing against a 25g dual parallel at 0.19. The taste will no doubt improve with a little steeping. They are very freshly mixed. More testing in a couple of weeks. lol

    EMS Note Pattaya, if you constantly receive mail at 4-5pm, but don't want to wait, then i advise to go to the Banglamung Post office at around 9 am with the EMS Tracking number, because then you just show address and ID to receive it right away.
    Done this today because the mail man said "its on my way home" gosh.

    So got the Zenith, Had a play (Clapton, Sleeper, Parallel) So i ended with the Dual Paralle 28g 7 wraps 2mm .32 .28 i mean Sorry ohms Build.
    Love the Airflow.
