WICK TEST UPDATE AND A NEW TOY FOR US

Hey gang. Here’s the update. Round 2 of taste testing has started with some 3rd party blind tasters taking part to verify what I experienced. Good news… experience verified! Part of round 2 will be to look at coil residue so you’ll need to give me a little time to vape my way through several tanks of liquid.

Also, WE have a new piece of gear to play with! I’m upping my mech testing game by getting rid of the old rig and replacing it with an electronic load.

You know, I’ve called my load many things in the past… “electronic” was never one of them. 🙂

This should allow me to more accurately look at a mechanical’s performance, amperage throughput (as seen from the previous tests), but now also wattages and voltage drops, which I know many of you use.

I have to re-think how I present the data in chart form and then re-run all the tests for all the mechs I’ve looked at to date.

Also, by your request, I’m adding a cleaning procedure for all mechanicals that are measured.

Note, that the load you see in these photos is not the final unit. I actually ordered a 300 watt rated version and was sent the wrong one. The replacement is on it’s way.

Once I have the new one, have re-thought the charts, and re-run all the tests, I’ll shoot a video to show you what’s up… “Meet The New Mech Test Rig v2.0” and post the results.

Happy Vaping Everyone!
