CROWN SUBTANK unfrigging real

Nice! I’m pretty excited about it! Dual crowns on dual Xcubes! Oh baby :slight_smile:
Thanks! That was my only concern

just out of curiosity, has anyone tried the clone version of the crown? I see Fasttech has it for $15.00.

Crown single coil? or did you get the new duel coil RBA for the Crown? The TVF4 is duel coil. Of course it’s much easier to build a single versus duel coil.
I haven’t built the TVF4 yet, so I can’t compare. Both are easy, i’d think. It’s not rocket science. LOL, I hope I’m not sounding rude. I’d suggest watching a video on Utube. It’s the wire you need to learn about. Practice makes perfect. You will get the feel for it like riding a bike. Make sure you have the tools you need and a tester. And be safe. I used to say I wouldn’t go below .5 ohms. But now with Temp control, I go to .2 on my builds. It’s the wire. You just can’t (or I can’t anyway) fit too many loops (to raise the ohms) in a base without the possiblility of it touching the chimney or something and causing a short. Also, titanium (mine anyway) is so soft, I fear that it will move especially in tanks like the Aromamizer where you expose the coil to add juice. Also there’s the decision to space the wraps or make them touch. ammmm. Lots of choices. Dry burn to test or not. Depends on the wire. Wire is cheap. Be safe and practice. Good luck and have fun.

Thanks @Joya but I shoulda explained myself more haha. I know how to twist coils, I just don’t. I was wondering which tank was “easier” is all :wink:
I just do not have the time to sit and build my own coils sadly…with the fact I only have 2 months out of the year that I have…some what…to myself, I just can’t do it is all. Thanks for your post though!

I found that the coil life is dependent on the juice and the wattage, higher watts with higher VG seems to burn out any coil faster, also the juice quality, I’ve had some juices funk up my coils in about a week or so with mysterious build up…

Also I just bought some nichrome 90 wire from Omega, it says 1 inch=.1 ohms, I’ve never built with this wire before, does anyone have any suggestions as to how many wraps and the diameter I should try to build to get .15 or over on a dual coil?

I have a suggestion but you probably don’t want to hear it.

I’m up for suggestions, shoot

It’s 24 ga nichrome 90, I made some claptons using 32 ga. Kanthol, and am currently running them in every RDA I own, the flavor is that good, I think 6 wraps was .13 ohms and ID of 2.5mm

If you’re using it for better flavor, get some Titanium and get rid of the Nickel wire. Most people here don’t use Nickel because of it’s bad properties and subpar performance compared to Titanium wire.

i ordered some not too long ago and am still awaiting it in the mail, the nichrome90 is still only compatible in wattage mode even though it’s 90% nickel, but am really looking forward to trying this titanium

Steam engine is great for this sort of thing. Here’s a link where I’ve plugged in most of the numbers for you (most importantly I’ve set custom resisitivty), but you may have to tweak a few like leg length or whatever, but this should get you in the ballpark Coil wrapping | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators

I checked it out and that’s my new favorite website! Thanks zigz! I just did a 8 wrap 2.5 mm build and it came out to a .22, tried the 3mm but was a little too big for the RBA deck I was trying it on…

I also built a couple 5whole wraps 2 half wraps 24ga nichrome 90 claptoned with 32 ga. Kanthol in my Velocity RDA… Flavor is stupid good, and massive clouds… Will produce good clouds and flavor at anywhere from 75-120 watts at a whopping .15 watts

I finally figured a way to put dual coils in the Crown tank… it turned out to be a waste of time time though. I’m not getting much flavor at all. The rba deck restricts the airflow too much to feed these duals.

Dual .5mm Ti, 2mm ID.

Dual 22g Ti, 2.5mm ID…

hey it was worth a try!!!

I thought I was onto something. The Stock SS coils tastes much better though.

Are you saying the stock ss coils are better than ti on the crown in general or better than your dual coil? Sorry for the noob question.

The SS is better imo. The rba deck doesn’t have enuff airflow feed the ti. The deck kinda sux imo.
