Siren V2 Advice

[Veritas]

Hoping for some advice on this tank, received today and I would like to try and get the best from it. Which Im sure currently isnt quite the case.

Its seems well built and the ability to top fill it so easily is great, lots of air flow options aswell, but I dont feel the flavour is amazing, like I hoped it would be, my nautilus 2 is probably currently better, it also likes the strike me with random spikes of adrenlin with some pretty loud pops!

So far I just used the coil that came with it, Im really not so sure what its made from, it reads around 1 Ohm on one of my boxes and 1.2 ohm on another, Im not sure best wattage to run on it currently. I wicked it with muji pads, Ive been reading up and read that maybe using more cotton would stop it poping, others seem to say the tanks just pop anyway! Im looking to buy some wire for it, can anyone reccomend what they deem would be a good easy wire to use, maybe kanthal 28 or 30 guage ? Also could someone reccomend a diamter of coil and maybe how many coils they wind to get a good results. Im was really hoping for a great improvment in flavour over the nautilus, any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

I would recommend 28 gauge Kanthal, and use steam engine to work out your builds.

I don't have the Siren 2, but on my Siren 1 I used the build below with good effect.

Thanks, I will pick up some wire on ebay and try making a coil similar to one you have posted, see how I get on

I would recommend http://www.stealthvape.co.uk/ for wire and cotton.

28 awg kanthal, ni80 or ss, 6/7 wraps, 2.5mm id. All sounds good to me

Just bought some vandy vape wire 30m on ebay from mchombrews (Pics says 10m, maybe a lottery what arrives!) for 3.95 on ebay kanthal a1, hope that will do the job.

As long as its 28awg you cant go far wrong.

Just to update, the flavour is actually great, must just have taken a bit of time to bed in, quite happy with it and hoping once I get used to building with it can get rid of the popping!

Don't have the Siren 2 but tend to put 28 AWG kanthal 2.5mm ID 6/7 wraps in nearly everything too. And buy from Stealthvape!

Almost the same exact coils for me, except 7/8/9 wraps.
I am planning to start doing twisted coils soon though.
When I can be bothered!
