Quick build on the Big Buddha. I’ll be in a place where stealth is required so out go the FC’s for a while…

Unfortunately, some of my spools are missing so all I had to work with was 26g A1. .5 is way too low for this thing but it’s a pinch situation so what ya gonna do, right? Works, just slow.

Stealth and Big Budda just don’t seem to go together.

“The Big Buddha is an enormous Kayfun-style, dual-coil RBA that holds 10mL of liquid! This tank is everything you love about the Kayfun, multiplied by two! The Big Buddha features two airflow adjustment screws, one for each coil, that are located on the side of the base. Airflow has been increased to allow for easier, smoother lung-hits. Like the Kayfun, this tank has a chamber for your coils that condenses the vapor and produces amazing flavor.”

Managed to figure out staggered fused claptons using the Daedalus. Used large wire so I could see what I’m doing but I feel confident I could do it now with smaller wire.

What’s the first build your gonna throw in that modfather?

The above is a modfather. I’ve tried many builds but I think my fave is simple 22ga SS

I’ve had 30% chance of making 28/40 staggared fused claptons on the Daedalus. For some reason it gets caught up and jumbles up. I can usually do enough to get a couple of coils though. I found that smaller gauge/shorter length works best. Then I run it through the pasta maker to flatten and they come out great.

Never tried to flatten them, maybe next time. If there is a next time.

These are one of those coils that are fun to use and look cool as hell, but to ME aren’t worth the trouble comparatively. I had a devil of a time getting the 40g spacing to work, I actually ended up using 36 for the spacing with the button trick, which I believe is cheating a little. They did work fine but not fine enough compared to basic FC’s for me to deal with the sentence enhancers that come with making them.

Cheat away! Whatever helps you get what you want.
My goto is usually 26/36 SS on the staggered and 3x28/36 on the fused. They are fun to make and admire but if I’m in a hurry or just plain lazy, I usually run simple 24g Ti and have done with it.

Decided to try and test my visual limitations. This is 28ga cores with 36ga wrap.

I found the trick when fusing the staggered claptons together is when running the spacer wire to have already started the fuse wire till it’s up against the guide. Then fish the spacer wire underneath the fuse wire where it comes through the eyelet and guide. Next simple hold both ends of the spacer wire and push it against the fuse wire till it pops through. Then all you have to do is anchor one end, wrap the other and anchor it. Works a charm! I would try to manage some photos but I already put this thing back in the box. Sorry :frowning:

I hate when that happens. I switched over to the Big Buddha yesterday because I was at a hotel and of course, ‘No Evil Vaping Allowed’ (say that in a stupid little whiny voice). Anyway, I forgot how great the flavor of this baby is. I get home today and switch back out to the higher powered FC’s on the Iron Maiden. All well and good right? Nope. The flavor is not as clear and bright on the IM. I love it to death, but it just can’t compete with that awesome Big Buddha in the flavor department. Problem with the BB is the airflow is too restricted for good DL, which I really love. But now I’ve gone and muted my flavor for a while because I used the BB. Not sure if this was more of a “What do I hate” post or whatever. OK, end rambling rant.
