Replace the wick :Is this idea worth me having a go at ?

Yes vaping anything that tastes 'bad' is always really worrying and burning that crud certainly does make it taste foul for a few vapes.

If the possibility of getting sued to ash didnt exist I'd make and market the pure juces myself, call them Innocent or something like the smoothies. But even legal gray area aside, doing something that might affect heath is way too risky for me.

I think the ecopure is probably the juice with the least amount of anything we don't need in it that we can get at the moment .....I don't know what's in the TW unflavoured.

[kinabaloo]

Isn't ecopure VG though?

TW is PG

I think the nicotine preparation is part of the problem because it's mostly a tobacco soak. Beyond that the chemistry i am not familar with re free-base and bound nicotne (various alternatives, but the binder part of the molecule might not evaporate); free-base might be more potent. It's a bit complex. But it should certainly be possible.

TW is a mix of both .....and although exo's test shows that it's the VG that leaves the most deposit, for some reason Ted is using ecopure and having the longest lasting mini pipe atomizer yet! It's a bit of a mystery. I can only assume it has something to do with having less 'other' ingredients.

It would be interesting to test a PG/VG mix (I think Exo will do that).

VG should have killed off the pipe by now! However, pipes have stronger attys perhaps (think so). Not sure who Ted is; how long has his atty lasted?

the last I heard from Ted his mini pipe atty was still working like new after a 'week' of using the ecopure....and up until changing to the ecopure he was having the same trouble as me and finding the mini pipe atomizer's were useless within just a few days.

Pete, could you give me a link to where you get your minipipe atomizers ?

(& I'll get to the PG/VG mix tests soonish)

Hi exo.....this is where I have been getting all my (16) mini pipe atomizers
SmokeJuice - HOME

I am reluctant to spend any more money on those..in case it isn't just luck, ecopure or burning that is giving me so much luck with this RN 4072 that I am using at the moment. The way they drape the fiberglass wicking all around the coil seems to be what makes the mini pipe atomizers work so well at first but it also provides a place for the gunk to build up.

Will certainly be interesting to see how the use of a cut of VG works out
(say 48% VG, 48% PG, 3% ethanol, 1% water).

I am expecting a fair bit less than half the deposit level with the 96% VG 4% water mix. It could be anywhere from no deposit to half as much. But we'll have to wait and see.
