DNA 250c

Ok so I got a DNA device because I heard they were very precise and accurate. I figured if you set the device to 130 wats then when you take a pull, then go check puff info that it would said the puff was at 130 watts. I have a dovpo riva 250c and everytime I set it on say 127 watts the I check the puff info it's always say between 1.3 and 3.5 watts less than what I set it out. I mean I ain't co.plaiming about it's still the best device I've owned. I'm just wondering if this is normal. Have I just misunderstood the precision of the DNA or is there something going on that I don't undt because I am relatively new to vaping. Any help would be appreciated thanks!

Is there any way to remove very light scratches from a mod?

Hey guys quick question. I have a black dovpo riva DNA 250c and I just noticed in the car it has a few really really light scratches. Like there so light I didn't even notice em in the house.

Aegis X issues

So my parents sent me a used Aegis X to have for christmas cause my old mod got screwed up. They told me I had to update some firmware or something but when it arrived the screen work perfectly fine with no problems. Then it started cutting out and not working at all unless I plugged it into something and now its firing but the screen is not displaying anything just brightening up slightly, sometimes it would show black and white lines with static but thats it. I've tried taking it off stealth mode by holding down all 3 buttons and I've tried looking online for firmware but there is nothing that is even allowing me to download the firmware software to my computer. Any simple fixes?

I need some help changing from 6% nic to a 10% solution. I downloaded the e-juice me Up program but I can't seem to wrap my mind around this. Here is a very small batch that I used the 6% solution: 48 ml Nic, 16ml distilled water, 64ml flavoring, 192ml VG. The Nic is 10% in a 100%VG. I'm sure this comes easy to some of you....wish it was for me. I appreciate the help!!

Hello, new member here! I have been coughing up tan specs with clear mucus lately.

So I have been off cigs for about 2 yrs now and vaping. For some reason i have been huffing up tan/brown phlegm from throat and its thick. I have been to 2 drs and sont find anything abnormal. I can run fine in my daily exercise routine and the only question I have is if anyone else has had this problem, i have heard nic oxidizes and turns brown when comong in contact with oxygen. Wouldnt it be reasonable to say that the juice is oxydizing thus giving that tan color to phlegm sometimes. Ususally its clear but when it sits there for a while get that yellow/tan hue to it. Any insight would help. Again i already been to Drs.

Question about asking a question

Hi, I'm a newbie, less than 5 posts.

I have a question about a vendor who sells online Juul pods. I am looking to buy replacement Juul pods.

I got burned by fraud from another online Juul seller so I would like to ask members if they had experienced any problems with this vendor.

Is this an appropriate type of question to ask on the ECF forum?

Oxva Origin 2 constantly hitting dry

Hey guys. So I didn't know where else to ask this so I thought I'd come on here.

I've just bought an Oxva Origin 2 and I'm relatively new to vaping, but I wanted to make the move from disposables because they're just not economically viable for me.

As much as I like the Origin 2 in terms of aesthetics, it keeps hitting dry as heck.

I made sure to saturate the 0.2ohm coil properly, I even roughed up the cotton to see if it would soak up the juice better.

It made a difference for like 3 hits, then went back to scratching up my throat and lungs.

I'm using Vapourizi 50/50 juice, the mango+raspberry flavour.
I'm just confused, because I've heard generally pretty great things about the Oxva Origin 2, and I'm wondering why it's not working for me.

I left it over night to see if it would make a difference, nope. I tried different wattages, nope. I tried different flavours, nope. Different amounts of air, nope.
How the heck do I make this thing taste good. I really want it to work for me. Should I just swap in the 0.3ohm and start again, and wait even longer for it saturate?

Any help appreciated.

Terrible issues with Old mod and now with new mod - Please help?

Hi,

Been a long time since I used this forum, but I need some help and advice please.......

So basically I used the Aspire Revvo Skystar mod for about 3 years or so and it was great but I had issues with that mod and the arc coils......

Basically what happened with that was coils I got from amazon and some proper e cig shops over the last few years for it just was dud when I primed them etc. I always primed the coils and let it sit upside down for 10 mins...... This did not work all the time and I kept getting burnt taste and no flavour when I replaced the coils and this kept happening and sometimes even in the space of 30 mins I replaced coil put a new one in and primed it and waited for 10 mins, reduced power to low Watts and bang burnt taste. So then switched coil again a few mins after putting that new coil in and again the coil did the exact same thing. This happened so often. And that is why today I then went and bought a brand new mod and tank which I will explain later in my post.

Another issue I had with the Aspire Revvo Skystar mod was the screen was a touchscreen and I actually had to buy a new mod replacement exactly the same 2 times, so I was on my third revvo skystar mod, this 3rd one I only had for like 2 months. Reason why I had to replace that mod 2 more times was the touchscreen DIED. Totally DIED so I was unable to actually change any settings or the watts or the time etc etc. It was really annoying. But now I am having issues with the coils again and no flavour and burnt taste. Every coil I put into it is just not working and giving burnt taste and no flavour. So now I just gave up and just went and bought a brand new mod and again having the exact same issue with this new mod and coils too............ :(

So now because of that it made me just go to a local vape shop and bought a brand new kit. The new mod tank I got was the GeekVape L200 and it has a Zeus Tank with Z1 coils...... I bought a pack of 5 replacement coils for it too.

But now I am not getting any flavour with this mod what so ever and I am getting the same burnt dry taste and again NO flavour. I am tearing my hair out here. Cos I am getting no flavour what ever I do. I then switched the coil that was pre installed with this mod I bought today with the second one it came with in the box. The one that was pre-installed said it should have been vaped at 70-80 watts. But when I tried it at that watts it was totally burnt taste so I lowered the watts and it stopped the burn taste but there is no flavour what so ever yet I get a lot of clouds.......

So I then switched it to the second coil that is the Z 0.25ohm one and that says it is 45-57watts.... But again I primed it and again I got burnt taste and no flavour........
I have not opened the pack of 5 coils yet because I do not want to keep burning them out. Is there something that I am doing wrong. Is it my juice I am using?

In case people wants to know my juice here is the info.

I make my own juice. I use a base mix of 80VG/20PG then add 10ml 100% VG 18mg nic shot to a 60ml bottle so 10ml nic shot and 50ml is base mix. I shake that well each time and before I use it I let it sit for at least 1 or 2 days. Then I use 30mil bottle and add about 20ml of the mix into the 30ml bottle from the 60ml bottle and then I add the flavour into the 30ml bottle. I usually just add like 84 drops of flavour. I am using capella flavours.......

So that is basically my setup and my issues. So if anyone can please help and advice me on why or what is wrong or what I am doing wrong then please kindly help. I would greatly appreciate it a lot.
I am losing my sanity trying to get a damn vape that has flavour right now its now been 2 days and I have basically been trying and wasting loads of coils and it is just not making any difference what so ever.

Thanks in advance

RJ :)

Nicotine base solution.

Ok so Eliquid is expensive we all know that. So, I decided to try my hand at mixing. I bought 1 gallon of nic base solution. It's supposed to be 10/90 vg pg and 6mg/ml. Well I got I instantly mixed a bottle of each flavor I bought. Then I decided to throw some of the solution on my rda and hit. I hit it 3 times and I got the worse nic rush ever man. I mean I felt high for 3 hours. It scared me. Now I didn't shake the jug before doing this. So my question is can nicotine separate out of liquid like that? Or did they just give me a solution with to much nic? Cuz I'm tellin you the hit I took felt like pure nic. I thought I was gonna have to go to the hospital.

Need Help With 4 Things

First the Biggest! I'm trying to log into myfreedomsmokesUSA and my internet will not connect. Is there a site down? Is this the company that is in NC? I sure hope so because the day they closed I was thinking about going back to cigs and something told me that I shouldn't and hang in there.

Second.....I'm a computer person, cat person, horse person, dog person, a gaming person and I do know some about this vaping stuff. Heck, I make my own juice and do my own tank. But what I don't understand are the mod things. So I'm looking to purchase a new mod. What I've done with my last two mods, is that they NEVER go over 30 watts. I usually vape 18 ohms. So I don't know what you would call me. I'm looking for a mod that has a pass-through first. So that I can vape and charge at the same time. Heck, I go through 200 MLS in 1 1/2 weeks, so yea, I love to vape. This mod has to hold 18650 batteries. I don't know if I need it to hold 2 or 1, but all this time in the last 10 years I've always had mods that have taken 2. So what kind of mod should I get? Any suggestions?

Third..... My current problem that I'm having is the following. Usually in the morning (at 7:30) I wake up, go to my battery charger and insert 4 batteries into it. So that these batteries can wake up, charge all day long, and at night around 11:30 I take them off the charger. The next morning the same processes all over again with a different set of batteries as I have 8 of them total. Yesterday as I woke up, I did my routine and noticed that the batteries on the charger were not charging. Sure the charger had the lights on and blinking, but the bar never when up to show that they were charging. I left them that way all day and still when I took them off, they were a little charge, but nothing to get me through the next day. So with this information, has my mod killed my batteries? Have my batteries actually lived a short life? Or is the charger that I've had for the last 7 years finally die on me?

Fourth......I'm in the market looking for mess coils. Can't find any and I'm hoping someone here can help. The ones I'm currently using is WOTOFO and the writing on the can is A1, 16 X6.8MM .18ohms. If anyone sees these from a good company, please let me know.

FYI.....In my last post to this site, I'm the one that was looking for nic and wondering how to freeze it, etc..... Will after 6 months, I can tell you all the outcome of it. I did my mix (nic came n at 24mgs strong), and I took it down to 5mgs with PG/VG. Store it in air-tight jars with baggies. They live in -0.2 degrees temps all the time until I need them. I take two out, let them unfreeze for about 3 days, and best juice I ever had. Out of a gallon jug, I still have enough for a whole year. Got to love it.
Thanks

How much nicotine in a 5% disposable compared to analog cigarettes

I've been vaping 5% salt nic disposables for a while. I usually get a short nic buzz if I have not hit it for more than a few hours. I spent some time googling to see how much nicotine I'm really getting from 2-3 hits on a 5% disposable. The answers are all over the place.

Is there a reliable formula for comparison? If I have a 3000 puff 5% 6ml vape, assuming 3000 puffs is realistic, how much nicotine would I be getting per puff, and compare that to smoking a full analog, which most say you absorb about 1-2mg of nicotine per cig.

New Here, Have An Issue If You Have Time

Thanks for this page existing! I've been vaping for about 4 years or so, but have always used sub-ohm style devices. Never built/wicked any in my life. I'm having an issue with my newest vape I recently bought, hoping to get some assistance.


*TLDR* RPM5 coils burn fast, looking for tips or replacement suggestions

Previously I had a drag s mini pod vape, my coils wouldnt last crazy long, but average about 3-4 days. I replaced it with a smok rpm 5 pod system and I am blowing through coils left and right. I'm lucky to get a full 24 hours on a coil without getting a burnt taste. I'm using the .23 coils, vaping on 30-35W and using a juice that is 70vg/30pg. I always prime my coils, they are saturated at least 10-15 minutes minimum before I even put them in the device. Tank stays above half 90% of the time. Last year I had a geekvape aegis with a cerberus tank, and I absolutely loved that thing. The coils would almost never burn, I'd end up changing them out after a week or two just for a better flavor profile. I'm tempted to buy another, but browsing sites is seems the supermesh coils are sold out in a lot of sizes, leading me to believe it'd be too difficult to keep extra coils handy. If anyone has any advice on anything I can do to make my coils last longer with my rpm5, or a reasonably priced vape/sub ohm tank that won't kill me with coil replacement costs every day, I'd love to hear it. I also found geekvape now is pairing A ZEUS sub ohm tank with the aegis mod (or very similar) that I used to have, but idk if that is a good tank or not. Sorry for the ramble, just kind of at wits end and looking for suggestions. Thanks!

Black Note Nic Salt "What device do you use?"

If you use Black Note Nic Salt What device are you using? I am currently using a Voopoo V-thru 1.2ohm pods at 3% nicotine. I go back and forth between 5watts for a light cigarette and 7watts a full flavored cigarette. I notice the pods don't last. I know Black Note is different from other eliquid or nic salts since it's naturally extracted tobacco. So I was wondering if there's a better device or does black note just kill pods in general? Tell me something I don't know. Btw I came up with those 2 wattages 5 & 7 because I discovered that 8 watts is a true nicotine hit of the pecentage number. Example 8watts at 3% you are absorbing that amount. So at 7watts at 3% I'd be absorbing like 2.6% and at 5 watts I'd be absorbing like 1.8%.
