You know that, and I know that...but can he do it at this current stage? He's just beginning, and the TFV4 is not the best tank for people who are new.
It's difficult to help with your problem over a forum. I had in the past advised u in pm about the wire type, number of wraps, cotton etc, and you have made some progress (eg no more leakage). If Tristan or I were in front of you, a few tokes on your TFV4 and a quick look would enable us to give suggestions on remedy. However one factor we cannot help u on is your level of expectation of flavor. That's why I suggested you try a dripper because for the most part, a properly set-up dripper is easier to achieve, and most times they DO give better flavor than tanks.
Your bad luck to encounter shops who weren't proficient with the crown. Lingleeyen has been trying by himself until he's gotten so frustrated that he wants to sell his TFV4. Maybe his fate is the opposite of yours...can't learn by himself, but a vape shop could help him.
Err...I do not believe I can't do what the experts are doing. What I mean is that trial and error on wraps, cotton amount, the height of coil, diameter of coil. I have adjusted all I can. I just cannot get what I want.
What I cannot leverage is to try those above with different types of coil (different brand/ gauge/ type). I can only use UD Kanthal or Nichrome both at 26G. I did not experience any leakage on my wicking on TFV4. I only get spills when I try to take off parts for refill. The glass has its own mind either it want to stick at the top or bottom. I have tried pressing and avoid glass coming out from direction that I do not want to. I am noob I guess. I just want to vape with little hussle. TFV4 almost made me give up vaping. Buying more different coil for this specific tank is just not for me now. Maybe the TFV4 has given me too much disappointment when I try it everytime in the toilet after wicking. Dripper is too much hussle too when I am in office. Boss has that one look whenever I do maintenance in pantry in the morning on my tank.
I was frustrated with the TFV4, but with Crown through youtube tutorials I watched before hand, I am able to fix stuff by my own. So far so good now for me. The only thing I need to figure out for now is the leakage when I do top refill. Even after I close the air flow hole and wick with S method, it still leaks. Maybe it is because of the gap between the chimney and the RBA, which I cannot fix.
