A few SAI coils and some odd nectar collectors

TGT-CDC, Yocan Cloud 1's

A Yocan TGT-CDC coil with the 13mm OD 6mm ID XL donut - the donut is ceramic-glued in place and ~cannot be further disassembled.~ which must be removed to separate the donut. No further disassembly is possible beyond that - The frit is thoroughly bonded with the ceramic.
Two Cloud 1 coils, which were picked up for a song on clearance. Ceramic all-around heat bucket coils. For $2 each!
Lookah 710 Connect

Lookah 710 coil cans can be popped open without tools, just a compatible vape- screw it into the vape with a coin under the rim, and it will loosen the bottom, then twist the coin to pop it out.
Lookah ceramic-glues the Type A coils in place (the bastards! Presumably they had a problem in testing though as they don't do that on the type B coils - likely the dish was wobbling, probably enough for concern about premature coil lead failure? Maybe to keep us from seeing the bottom of the frit dish? The bottom of the frit gets super nasty in Lookah frit coils. However, ceramic glue is not ceramic: A small screwdriver or xacto knife can be used to break away the ceramic glue around both pins, where the wire comes out on the bottom. The pointy part of a pair of precision tweezers then poked out the ceramic in the wire hole next to the wire, and the coil can be removed - it's only glued at the wires.
The quartz frit coils, cup and all, from lookah's 710 coils can be easily transferred to an SAI coil, so you can try out quartz frit with less awful other hardware (SZ crossing doesn't like quartz frit do they? I don't think they list a single product with frit quartz!).
Assorted coils, mostly ones that posed particular challenges

Those filthy frit coils are lightly used lookah type A 710 coils. One of the cups is a Lookah A-cup, the other is a Sai just to support the other one. The underside of them gets unspeakably filthy,. especially with lookah firmware which works very hard to waste as much of your wax as possible.]
The three sizes of donut coils and 2 of the three for disks (they're also made in a "13mm" (12.5) size, which is the easiest to find because puffco likes it).
The 13mm donut was obtained from the TGT-CDC coil next to it - other picture of this from before I figured out that I could remove the ceramic glue easily.
Other coils shown are bastard coils: A: Sai x 710D - Untested, virgin parts. B: 510XL x 710C - Tested and utterly awful, but the coil had been ruined before I declared it scrappable, putting the internals into another housing doesn't fix it. C: Sai x Yocan Cloud 1 bucket (yocan cloud 1 was the divine tribe cup heater or something I can't visually distinguish from one. They (DT) has mentioned the mass market ones copying their coils, this could be an example. I think it's telling that the next version of it (did they change anything other than the pricing and the markings on the side? They look very similar - I'm suspiocious that they just changed the package size from 5 to 1 and lowered the list price from 50/5 to 30/each or whatever..., as these have a very long life, so people shouldn't be needing 5, and they could be $oakign people that much harder. In any event, I only paid $27 for 3 boxes of 5 on clearance from the "e-cig mafia") Untested D: Lookah 710 x CDC (ceramic donut coil) - Untested. E: 510 x 1/3 Sai trip Ti - Untested
510XL (Yocan 17mm) - Three and a half designs:
Normal - Rim goes *into* the can. Airflow is through holes in the bottom of the ceramic cup or otherwise unrelated to the housing form
*All cap-thread-bearing ones are like this, with a threaded have construction differing only in the shape of the lid (thread or non)_
C4-DE+ - Funnicular lld to provide for the unusual airflow requirements of the C4-DE+ - rim is pressed *into* the can
Cloud1 - Two thick ridges on can, the can is pressed *into* the rim. Additionally, the floor can be removed with considerable difficulty, freeuing the connections
510+ (14mm, Yocan)
Normal - A scaled-down version of Normal 510XL. Nothing noteworthy
510 12mm
C4-DE - 11.6mm in diameter, 4.5mm bore 10.2mm ID 11mm deep
Miniaturized C4-DE+ (works much worse due to wax feed clogs from the narrow cup). The floor cannot be removed.
Cap-Top - 11.9mm threaded rim part of the can. Bottom can be removed with difficulty.
Generic - 11.9mm in diameter (with virtually no variation)
Gen A - 10.8mm ID, 4mm bore, 10mm deep. off-center hole hole cut 1.6mm into the integrated floor, which inexplicably is 2.5mm thick.
Gen B - 10.8mm ID, 4mm bore, 12mm deep.
Gen C - 11.2mm ID, 3.5mm bore 11mm deep
Gen D - 9.25mm ID, 4mm bore, funnel like non-removable rim, removable bottom like cap-tops.
Gnome dome - 11.7mm OD, 10.9mm ID 11mm, 4mm bore removable knurled bottom. Metal looks and feels like titanium, but nobody would be so daft as to make a consumable with such an expensive material and then not brag about iut...
SAI (SZC 14.5) Two designs:
Normal - Rim pressed into can. Floor not removable. There are at least three different ceramic cups used. The trip TI uses a cup with 6 holes instead of 2 like the quartz/ceramic single rod coils.
Bucket - Rim threaded and screwed into can. Floor not removable. Otherwise identical to the normal Sai coils
710 (lookah) - One design (type D coils have holes cut so, if you were using it in one of those non-existent 710 thread vapes that lets you see the side of the coil.... but there aren't... and lookah knows this because they're the only one making 710 vapes!). 14mm diamnter 16.5mm tall, with the rim extending 1.5mm beyond the wall of the can (so the rim is the same diameter as a yocan XL). Rim not removable.
910 (lookah) - No information.
Uni (lookah) - For original and 2.0 Unicorn, not mini. 18mm diameter, 16mm deep, 18.5mm tall on outside 7mm bore. Floor of Uni-II coils also pressed in. Rim threaded on Uni-II (a bucket coil much like the quartz sai)
Threads:
510 is M7 x 0.5 Extra Fine
710 is M8 x 0.5 Extra Fine
910 is ?? x ?.? Extra Fine Anyone able to get a dial calipur on the 910 thread and let me know what diameter you get, and also tell me if the thread is coarser, or about the same as 510?
Unicorn 1.0/2.0 is M10 x 0.75 Extra Fine
