Running a dual coil as a single

Anyone know how to run an RTA that is meant for dual coils in single coil mode?

Edit: Where a single coil adapter is not available

If it is as simple as plugging the juice ports how would someone go about doing that? Cotton??

RTA in question is the OBS engine:

Companies are starting to make inserts. More popularized when geekvape started making them along with one other company.

I’ve tried running a coil down the middle between the two posts vertically and horizontally before. I didn’t like the vape quality though.

Some tanks have a single coil adapter for that, like the Goblin Mini and the Ijoy limitless.

It looks like this. The reason I’m using it is because Ijoy has tightened the screws so much that I can’t unscrew one of them, it is completely stripped now and won’t move. :unamused:

Yeah, I have the insert on my griffin 25 works perfect.

The way the airflow works in most tanks means the coil has to be to one side.

I have an idea though, I’m going to try this:

Run 2 lots of cotton through the coil, one length gets cut down for the front holes, the second piece stays long and goes into the other holes somehow… it works in my head lol

Small drill bit in a dremel or hand drill at low rpm will get that out :wink:

Edit: Jewellers drill bit would be perfect

I don’t own one and all the other bits don’t work. TBH the flavour on this thing is meh anyway, so I might just shelve it for when the vapocalypse has hit me badly and I’ve got nothing else left. :grinning:

Dunno what the diameter is, but I would get a wire coathanger and cut out a bit, then bend it
appropriately to fit in both holes, if possible. Something to try anyhow.

I’ve used the crius and the aromamizer single before. I didn’t realize you weren’t supposed to. LoL. I just kinda put some cotton down in it and it seemed to work ok.

And of course, I’m late to the party…did you find a solution that worked?

Nope, nothing, so i just got some higher ohm coils and ran it dual but use lower power.

Ill have to try the double cotton passthrough or just stuffing the holes with something, bluetack might work… Hmmm… :smile:
