Err... ID is inner diameter. Optimal for the 'Cado is 3mm anyway as the wick holes are 3mm.

As for the kicking out of TC mode thing, I only got that running my twisted SS contact coils (with really low ohmage, circa 0.12) on the 'Cado + Pico. With my spaced, decent ohm coils (0.30-ish) I've had no issues so far.

Also, check if the top screw (the screw on the deck) is secure. If it's loose it will give you all manner of problems anyway. Also the 510 screw.

You are a dangerous, dangerous man Bro.

Not that I'm complainin' lol.

And I can absolutely concur.

That's the part blowing my bloody mind lol.

Same JT chipset (and same 22mm atty limitation + shitty 510) so only question is, which one looks better to you? Personally I like the look of the Pico (with the 'Cado on it looks like a classy vintage drink flask IMO).

Plus, the Pico *is* smaller and more compact.

On the other hand, the Guntank (RX75) has a bigger, better (but ultimately hidden most of the time) screen and firing button setup (hidden from the elements due to it being located underneath the battery cover).

It has to be noted, however, that the fire lock switch on the Guntank apprently can't take too much abuse: https://goo.gl/9H2CHq

You can still turn Guntank off with five clicks once it's broken, but it's still something to consider though.

Awesome. Welcome to the 'Cado club Bro lol. Any problems with TC with the new coil? Coz planning to get a Nugget myself for out-and-about drippin'.

Later when I get my setup in (if ever lol, still recovering from Raya-shock) I'll share here. It's probably gonna be even smaller lol.

Nugget also... but not with Derringer or Bambino ler. I addicted to Velodecks edi thanks to the blardy 'Cado. So effin easy to build on. So yeah, tiny RDA with a Velodeck.

Heck, Nugget with the VeloV2 edi pretty tiny I might just do that and save a bit on getting a new RDA lol. But then my poor lil VTC would be pretty lonely...

BTW, just put Rayon for the first time in my VeloV2. And yeah, it works pretty much like cotton... only that it doesn't expand AT ALL, and there's zero cotton flavour (of course) from the very first puff.

Though if I had to compare well broken in Kendo wicks vs Rayon I'd say the Kendo would have a slight advantage in "roundness" and "smoothness" of the flavour. It might just be me though.

And yeah, that dry Rayon feeling irritates the heck out of me. It's like nails on the blackboard kinda feeling.

Also, Rayon is strangely less "moist" on the VeloV2... which actually is a good thing considering that the "moistness" with Kendo can be overwhelming sometimes lol.

It's actually a two-piece affair, with a normal screw on plastic part (looks like hard nylon or POM) and a inner metal sleeve that holds the actual driptip (and covers the top of the plastic part).

Not sure if it's supposed to, but on mine both pieces come apart... or it might just be the GMv2 dual-oring DT fitting so tight that pulling it out pulls the adapter inner sleeve out with it lol.

That said, the GMv2 DT is a permanent fixture on my 'Cado, so it really isn't much of an issue for me. It might be if you change DTs often though.

I could imagine. The threads look fine AF. The VeloV2 has much, much more substantial adapter threads in comparison.

Your claps spaced or contact? I can't comment much on the TC of the Nugget board (coz I don't have one yet), but at least the JT chips in my VTC and Pico seem to not really work that well with contact SS for TC, especially with anything more complex then a straight single strand coil.

Agreed on the first point. A multi coil monster (it can do 4-6 coils?) vs a single coil mini... apples and oranges.

I would recommend the Serp highly if you just need a small simple tank though... it doesn't really get any simpler than that.

As for the Nugget... will be observing this situation as it develops. As it already has a very, very small batt; not having TC would be rather... problematic.

If it really is not reliable in TC mode I would probably switch over to the Target Mini.

Funny that the JT omniboard (let's call it that, considering it powers everything from the Pico to the VTC to the RX200 to the VaporFlasks) is also known to have issues kicking itself out of TC.

Experienced it first hand with a contact twisted built on the Pico, which it kicked out of TC with alarming frequency. Pulled out the twisted and put in a "straight" spaced SS coil and it's working easy peasy.

Maybe you should just try "normal" spaced SS coils sib. Flavour might be slightly diminished, but it *should* work fine (and be better for your batt-life considering that a straight coil would need leas power to heat up).

If it doesn't, then its confirmed that the Nugget... just doesn't like SS... unfortunately.

Myself I'm planning to try some spaced twisted SS on the VTC + VeloV2 sometime soon... hopefully the VTC would fare better on TC with that build.

I'm no sifu myself when it comes to all this fancy wires (heck I stayed with simple single coil contact kanthals for years), so I might or might not be getting this right.

So yeah, correct me if I eff up somewhere.

IINM, Claptons burn slower and cooler (thanks to the outer layer being a heatsink), while having more surface area. What that means is, it has better flavour from a slightly cooler vape with the *similar* amounts of vapour as a subohm straight build.

Also there's that space in between the Clapton "outer layer" that kinda speeds up wicking (and also means that it eats juice faster). Plus, having two layers that heat up differently actually gives you vapour in two temperatures... which might add to the flavour as well.

Unfortunately, it also requires a helluva lot more power to get there (thanks to that heatsink outer layer), and the ramp-up might not be everyone's cup of tea.

For creamy juices, it burning slower and cooler does mean that you will take a longer time to scorch your juice... which means less of that burnt taste from your creamy stuff.

On the other hand, a higher ohm build would just give you a cooler vape and less vapour (compared to a subohm build) with very little power needed.

It does scorch juice faster though (as with all straight coils), especially if you burn the coils long.

Well, at least that's what I understand from the whole shebang anyway. Myself I don't really use Claps much cause I prefer my vapes hot and the extra power requirement of Claps don't really help prolong the battery life of my single cell mods.

What are the ohms on that build you're running, if you don't mind me asking? Also, is that VTC updated to the latest FW?

Cause my Pico (same JT omniboard) hasn't kicked me out of TC mode *at all* ever since I got rid of that ultra-low-ohm twisted build I was trying out a few weeks back. Even the contact 316L build I ran *before* that twisted experiment had zero issues with TC kicking (also not ultra-low)... though temp accuracy was a bit all over the place with it being contact coils.

Later I'll test the Cado from my Pico on my own VTC and see if there's any issues.

Finally, the 510 on the VTC has been known to be a bit... problematic as well. That might also be an issue (510 issues = large ohm flactuations = kicking out of TC).

Tornado Nano yang chipcoil tu ke? Best ke?

king_coolice Annnnnnd I just tried my TC 'Cado on my Evic. Zero problems in TC SS... though the 510 *was* slightly too short to fully seat my 'Cado.

Didn't try to fully tighten as it *was* only a test and I didn't want to break that famously fragile 510. And even not fully tightened up, it stayed in TC mode for about an hour of use.

So yeah, either 510 issue or tank issue.

Or it might just be the mod being wonky after extensive use - the VTC doesn't really have the best sealed 510 either and juice *can* come into the mod once the black rubber seals get damaged (which is the main reason why the 510 breaks anyway).

Dua tiga kucing mengerang
Tahu-tahu beranak jua
Dalam VeloV2 Twisted SS dipasang
TC stabil, rasa pun power

Coz you know... back to topic of VTC TC lol.

Currently at 9 wraps of twisted 26, 3mm, very slightly spaced (duals, clocking in at 0.22). The whole thing is barely fitting the VeloV2 deck with my wicks lol.

Flavour is awesome AF and TC is surprisingly stable on my VTC, especially after the whole "jumping" incident earlier with twisted SS on the 'Cado+Pico. Now looking forward to TC actually preventing Lucifer's Pubes as advertised.

On the minus side, I might have semi-stripped one of my Velo screws... thankfully there's a farktonne (8 more actually, 4 Phillips and 4 flat) of spares. Viva la Tobeco!

As for the Tornado... might just get the Nano if they ever make one with a Velodeck as I'm totally sold on the "innovative" chipcoils lol. Heck, there's an entire thread up on Reddit laughing about the "innovative" part.

The big one is... well... too big for me lol.

Rather than a collection of tanks, you need a collection of RDAs lol. IMHO you only need tanks for ADV setups, and 2 of those is already overkill.

RDAs? Well, one for on-the-go backup, one for at home, one for at work, one for creamy juices, one for tobac juices, one for single coil juice testing, one for wick testing, one for...

... preferably each with its own mod lololol...

Fruity stuff? Well those go into the ADV tank + mod for me lol.

Lololol... TBH, I only have 2 RDA setups ATM pun (not counting the "extremely" spare Nemi + Anima RDA I stash in my car for "extreme" emergencies).

Getting the rest is still an ongoing process lol. Right now it's saving up enough for a Nugget + Hastur V2s combo for "on-the-go" drippin'.

Check the insulator that is sandwiched in between the 510 pin and the top 510 screw. It might be loose. Heck the entire top 510 screw might be loose.

Otherwise the post screws. But you said you already checked those.

Using the smaller brother, but yeah close enough. Nope not having this problem at all, though I'm not running Claps myself (staying on straight spaced SS). What mod are you running?

On the other hand, I did just go though a similar issue (wild resistance jumps and subsequent TC issues) with twisted SS on my VeloV2 (after hours of fuss free vaping). Turns out my coils were so huge that one of them were touching the top cap everrrrr so slightly lol. A bit of coil adjustment fixed that up quick.

As a Cado is pretty much a Velo on a tank, any chance of something similar happening?

Welcome to the Cado gang Bro. You actually can run longer wicks if you want to (and not have to tilt)... but you'll lose capacity of course.
