This is how I've been making my juices lately after coming across some posts on the TFA/TPA flavoring thread about high flavorings. I also used to make my juice via pre-mixing my base juice (at whatever mg content I was looking for roughly), so upping my flavorings was a way to lower my mg (I no...
So I started vaping about seven months ago. I started at 12mg WTA, and now I'm vaping 6-3mg. I've been vaping primarily 3mg juice lately (I went through less than 1ml of 6mg today, and the rest that I vaped (about another ml or two) has been 3mg). I'm going to be having surgery sometime this...
So I looked this up and couldn't find much on it. I saw a video where another vaper had heard about this problem but not experienced it. Let me tell you I just experienced it. I attached my mini Aerotank (With the metal drip tip that comes standard) to my mini passthrough and it SHOCKED my...
I’ve been looking at this tank for awhile. I own the original (V1) Aerotank and it’s hands-down my favorite tank. The original Aerotank has a nice smooth draw and produces a TON of vapor (honestly rivaling even my RBAs (but I like my ohms high)). I have been using EVODs and T3Ds for my...
So, I was waiting to do this review... and I'll explain why through this review. I want to note that this is my first RTA, but not my first RBA (I got an Igo-W first). I clearly had not taken much thought into how big this tank was going to be in real life. I saw videos of it with batteries...
Finally stuck one of my rebuilt coils on my Aerotank. It's 2.8ohms (I like my ohms high so this is perfect, and about how the genuine kanger (2.2ohm) coils were reading on my MVP (which were coming out to 2.7ohms)) with a 2mm braided silica (ekowool) wick and a cotton flavor wick. (decided to...
Finally got around to rebuilding some more Kanger coils. Feel proud of myself. Feel a little frustrated with the mechanics of it as well. I guess if I had started here and not started rebuilding with the Igo-W, I would feel differently.... but having to take apart (then put back together) a...
So I'm sitting here trying to decide on a bottom-fed RTA to buy. I'm kinda stuck. It seems like everything has one of a couple problems... Tight Draw Pain to Build Pain to Fill I've been looking at a ton of reviews for the Kayfun, Aqua, and Lemo... and their problems go in about that...
So, today, against my better judgment I did two things: I rebuilt my first coils on the Igo-W, with dual coils and organic cotton (came out to 2.2ohms with a 9/10 wrap of 32ga kanthal). The reason I say this was against my better judgment was because I was saying I wasn't going to do this till I...
So I got an Igo-W in the mail a couple days ago, and like everyone else, felt the airhole was WAY too small. Took a 1/16 drill bit to drill it out and it took pretty much forever (I actually took a break at about the end of it for a couple hours because my hands were getting pretty sore just...
Just got my MVP and IGO-W in the mail yesterday. I unboxed them both late last night and turned the MVP on just to check it out. I actually am vaping off both right now. Woke up and put one of the coils that comes with the IGO-W on it (this was an interesting experience... so glad that it came...
I'm all saying how I probably won't get a big mod like a Provari or something... and now here I am looking at the iTaste MVP and Vamo. I decided that I want to try rebuilding coils. It doesn't seem too difficult, but there is obviously a risk... and I need something to check the ohms (and for...

I began smoking when I was 12 (a few months shy of my 13th birthday). When I started smoking, it was easy to give it up. Sometimes I laugh when people say that the first cigarette (or first pack) will have you hooked... because that's not true. Smoking is a habit, and it takes awhile to...
For reference: I am using an EVOD, Aerotank, & Igo-W. I have an Ego-C Twist, MVP V2, & a mini pass-through which I use at about 4.2-.3.6 volts (as low as 3.2 in the morning (or on the MVP) - and sometimes up to 4.6 on the pass-through) - with 2.2-2.8ohm coils. I've been learning a reasonable...
This is just a personal yay-me post. I've been vaping for 28 days, a few days shy of a month. I can say a few things with certainty: I can honestly say my lungs feel better. And so does my throat. I don't wake up hacking and coughing. I haven't been coughing up awful-looking brown/yellow...
Recent realization, the dual coils that come stock with the Aerotank suck. I put a regular single coil in there and it just works so much better. For some reason, the dual coils just always result in leaking and poor flavor. I put the dual coil back in to see if it was just user error, and...
Because I saw someone in the forums talking about this (and because it was old enough of a post that I felt there was no point in commenting on it in the thread), I thought I would note something about the apparently ominous Dihydrogen Monoxide. Let me first say that the scare about this...
I got my Aerotank a couple days ago and I've been using it endlessly. Love the damned thing. This morning I went to vape off of it and it started flooding/gurgling (and vapor production was less than the EVOD!). I was getting really concerned. I cleaned everything, took the bottom off the...
Just got my Aerotank in. Filled it up with some Chocolate Strawberry. Gonna play around with the airflow for awhile, and then I'll probably make a blog post about what I think. But for now, all I have to say is that it looks like a beast on my Ego battery. :laugh: It's pretty amusing. Comical...
