Vivant Incendio Firecore Coil

For the last year or so I had been using Motar quartz coils. Then I tried a Vivant Incendio tank with their Firecore coil at a friends house. and decided to give the setup a try. The Motar come in 2 packs, Vivant in singles and both are roughly the same price. The Motar coils have a rubber insulator between the coil leads, on the bottom of the actual coil, and if you tighten the coil into it's base "tank" the rubber insulator will burn out almost instantly on anything over 35 watts or so, or on a long burn, like a mod's 10 second time-out. The Vivant Firecoils use a completely different insulation method via lead issolation and in-setting them via an all metal assembly. I can't really tell how they achive this , but I've tried to burn one out and it just doesn't happen. Even at a 60w, dry, full 10 second burn to mod time-out. Also the Vivant's well is much deeper, and less prone to blow-back of it's packed media, and ramp-up to burn is much faster than the Motar even at the same wattage. THe Vivant can handle at least 20 additional watts beyond the point where the Motar's rubber insulator burns out and shorts. 35-40w vs 55-60w. Suffice to say, I've switched to Vivant as my primarily setup. The one complaint I have for the Vivant is that if you accidentally dry burn (no media) you get a horrid chemical taste. My guess is the bonding material they use to seal the cap of the glass (Br. Silicate) coil isolator is burning off. Just a guess, but I'm pretty confident in that guess. So watch your media level to avoid this. awful experience.

I love the experience I get using this coil. The coil is embedded in the glass so your product doesn't touch it directly. It heats up pretty evenly and it is easy to wipe out with a cotton swab right after use.
