Coil problem (plz help)

I have an unpleasant problem with my smok nord x. The coil started to spit e-liquid in mouth and lips, so I changed coil to a new one, but this problem didn't disappear and whenever I make a puff , I get a large amount of e-liquid in my mouth. I cleaned the coil tank, but that didn't help. Maybe anyone knows how to get rid of this? (P.S. sorry for bad English, I'm not native speaker)

► VooPoo Doric 60; 5 colors available:
• Ice Blue, Deep Sea Blue, Olive Green, Space Gray, Grapefruit Red.

6.JPG


► VooPoo Doric 60; First impressions:
As I anticipated at the beginning Doric 60 draws inspiration from the shape of the previous and refined Seal for MTL and the mysterious smooth pillars of the ancient Roman pantheon. It does so in a minimal guise with a sleek appearance and a long 2,500mAh battery life.

7.jpg


Doric 60 is a device created for flavor and is equipped with the well-known PnP tank, however VooPoo has made all the magnetic capsules of its vast production interchangeable between its various devices. The chipset has three selectable power steps and its circuit with gene.TT therefore allows you to install and automatically manage any circular VooPoo Pod, switching from MTL to DL with ease.

8.jpg


► VooPoo Doric 60; feeling:
The minimal aesthetics of this product with its smooth shapes enhance the ease of grip, the light alloy makes Doric 60 extremely light. I find the only button convenient, the LED light is clearly visible during use.

9.jpg


Particularly of no small importance is the possibility of using Doric 60 both in manual and automatic mode. However, the automatic puff remains the sore point of this type of device.

Wotofo the troll x rta review

I received wotofo troll rta x from health cabin for the purpose of this review.

Wotofo the troll x rta colors:

- Blue Metal
- Blue
- Gold
- Rainbow
- SS
- Black

zznC1EW.jpg



Specifications:

- Height: 36mm (without drip tip & 510 pin)
- Deck Diameter: 24mm
- Drip Tip: 810 resin drip tip
- E-liquid Capacity: 3ml/4.4ml
- Filling Method: Top filling
- Airflow Type: Bottom airflow
- Coil Type: Single/Dual Coil

1* The Troll X RTA
2* Framed Staple Clapton (0.33Ω Ni80)
2* 3mm Thick Cotton Strip
2* Airflow Insert (1 pre-installed)
1* 4.4ml Bubble Glass Tube
1* Coil Trimming Tool
1* Cross Head Screwdriver
1* Accessory Bag
1* User Manual

dNfbvYb.jpg


Troll x rta is atomizer that you can use with one or with two coils. This atomizer comes in really nice package where you will receive coils, cotton, two tanks, airflow adapters, coil tool. This atomizer is 24mm in diameter and build quality is solid.

i7EEodP.jpg



Atomizer comes with 810 drip tip and this drip tip is resin drip tip, in my opinion the drip tip is really comfortable for using, I like it a lot and I use it here. In case that you don't like this drip tip you can use here any other 810 drip tip without any problems.
This is a top fill atomizer and this fill system is pretty simple. On the top cap you can see the arrow and you need to push there top cap in order to open it. When you push it you will see the fill hole, on the fill hole you can see protection which is nice. You can pretty much easy fill the atomizer.


y7M8wd5.jpg




You will receive troll x with two different tanks which is nice, you will receive regular tank and you will receive bubble tank. Capacity of the atomizer with regular tank is 3ml and capacity with bubble tank is 4.4ml which is really good capacity in my opinion. Tank stays really nice in the place when you take off the base so you can change coil or cotton when you have e liquid in the tank.


kgU1bEI.jpg

qXLSLct.jpg





On the base you can see 4 screws for coil leads and as I said you can use this atomizer with one coil or with two coils. In the package you will receive coils and cotton that you can use here if you don't have. In the package you will also receive tool that you can use to measure the coil leads. If you use this atomizer with two coils it is best to clip coil leads on 6mm.
On this atomizer you can change the airflow under the coil which I really like. On the picture you can see how each airflow adapter looks, personally I like honeycomb airflow better. You can pretty much easy change the airflow adapters on this atomizer.



On the base you can see the airflow control ring and on the base you can see 3 slots with airflow holes, really nice in my opinion. On each slot you can see 5 airflow holes. When you adjusting the airflow what you adjust on one slot it will be the same on all 3 slots. You can pretty much easy adjust the airflow on the atomizer.


LPeIzuw.jpg

Ax2d2pb.jpg

tRUU4qz.jpg

RgLDcr7.jpg

x8xxGAZ.jpg








My thoughts:

Let me start with the package. In the package you will receive bubble tank, coils, cotton, coil tool and two airflow adapters but you will not receive spare protection for fill hole. You can pretty much easy fill the tank here and protection on the fill hole will protect it from leaking on the top. Drip tip is very good in my opinion and I like to use it here. With buble tank capacity of the atomizer is 4.4ml which is great capacity. You can use this atomizer with one or with two coils which is nice, personally I like it with two cols. Flavor with two coils is very good in my opinion. I use this atomizer with honeycomb adapter and airflow is really good in my opinion. You can easily replace the airflow adapters here. Building and wicking is simple and I belive you will have no problems because tool from the pacakge will help you. You can expect a lot of airflow here and I like to close one hole on each side. In my opinion this is good atomizer and works better than previous version of the atomizer, basically I can't find something to complain about.

Rating out of 10:

Vapor production: 9
Flavor: 8
Build quality: 8
Value: 8.5




Cons:

- They should include spare protection for fill hole in the package



Pros:

- Good drip tip
- Easy to fill
- Capacity 4.4ml
- You can replace the coil or cotton while you have liquid in the tank
- Easy to build and wick
- Good flavor
- Good airflow
- Airflow adapters
- Coils and cotton in the pacakge

Thanks Health cabin

New Here-Seeking advice on nic salt devices (opem system)

Hello all. My name is Gerry and I'm new here - seeking advice/suggestions on open system nic salt devices. I'm new to vaping nicotine (though I do use heavy oils which seem to be a whole different thing). I am a heavy smoker and I want to switch to nic salts; I tried a friend's menthol nic salts once and liked it. I know he used 50 mg. menthol nic salts. I know that freebase and nic salts are not interchangeable but neither are the devices/batteries used and I just don't know how to tell the difference between what I can use for nic salts and what I can't. I've ordered some 50mg nic salts and a device called a Kanger Evod at the suggestion of a customer service guy at a vape sales site (I'm new so I can't post a link to it). Could someone please/kindly explain to me what to look for in shopping for an open system for nic salts (as opposed to the freebase nic e-liquid, I suppose). If you can make suggestions, that would be awesome too. I'm looking to find something with a good battery life and capacity. Thanks much for the help!

The Feds Can't Outlaw Delta-8 THC!

In the mid-1970s, the Dutch government initiated a permissive policy toward cannabis coffeeshops in Amsterdam and other cities, where locals and foreigners could purchase hash, weed, and “space cakes” (THC-rich edibles) for onsite consumption in a relaxed setting without fear of arrest. Even though recreational cannabis was – and still is – technically illegal in the Netherlands, the authorities tolerated the proliferation of cannabis coffeeshops as an effective harm reduction strategy (better cannabis than injecting hard drugs).

China's new Vapeflask

I've been fascinated with the evolution and de-evolution of the VaporFlask over the years. From the original US design, to the latest 3FVape release, I have five totally different versions. One issue that all companies have struggled with is how to get all of those electronics and wires into a small tubular space. The original flask had a "sled" of sorts that truly was a crazy setup. That said, it worked and was semi repairable. When the clones started arriving, they tried their hand at the sled design and some much cheaper casings. There were versions where the entire side popped off, giving access to the batteries et al...

In the quest to make the Vaporflask cheaper, the latest iteration is (in my opinion) an attempt to seem like the original design - but the result is a truly dangerous device. The main issues are:

- The boards and cables are wrapped in kapton tape and literally jammed into the small cylindrical space. Unprotected button solder points, buttons that are glued in place, a screen that is soldered instead of socketed, non-spring loaded 510, loose metal kerf, poor thread machining... and the capper: a dab of cheap electrical tape as an insulator of the positive battery connector.

This thing looks like a vapor flask, but the quality is more akin to the version (3?) clones that were really, really cheap.

There are some cool ideas in it, for instance they have a small plastic "holder" that puts the USB port right where it needs to be. But then it's hot glued into place.

While it's not the worst clone I've seen, it's the most dangerous due to the corners they cut in manufacturing. Take care and do NOT attempt to repair this device. It's truly disposable.

Images attached. If anyone out there has disassembled various versions of this device, it's an amazing testament to how a difficult design is dealt with, to cut costs.

STOP THE NEW VAPE TAX!

From CASAA - please don't sleep on this one!

"The House Ways & Means Committee has revealed that it is considering a tax proposal on nicotine and tobacco as part of the funding bill for President Biden’s “Build Back Better” plan. The provision is designed to equalize taxation across all tobacco and nicotine products.

In other words, the tax on demonstrably less harmful products like vaping, snus, and smokeless tobacco would be the same as the tax on cigarettes – the most harmful tobacco product...

To put this in more relatable terms (see the table below), this new tax would add $10.00 to a 30mL bottle of 6mg e-liquid."

Tastiest most flavorful e-liquid?

Hello, I've been wanting to buy bigmouth bubbly beast e-liquid for so long, since it tastes like heaven, but they are either all permanently sold out/out of stocks or they don't ship to my country in Europe, could you recommend me a really heaven-like e-liquid? preferrably a shortfill, with no nicotine, so that I could add some salt nicotine to it myself, I'll add about 5mg of nicotine overall. Basically, question, what is the most tasty e-liquid you know? I'm looking for sweet flavors like cola, bubble gum, watermelon, strawberries, and so on. Oh and also would be best if it's 70/30 vg pg

ZQ ESSENT SE 80W BOX MOD - Review

Hi ECF members, In this review I take a look at the Essent SE 80W Box Mod from ZQ Vapor. The ZQ Essent SE 80W Box Mod was supplied for the purpose of this review by Rico from ZQ Vapor.

https://www.zqvapor.com/kit/zq-essent-se/zq-essent-se-mod.html

vGw4vcU.jpg



Introduction

ZQ Vapor are still a relatively new brand and under the SKEY R&D umbrella who's services are utilised by the likes of Aspire and iJoy! Manufactured by Aspire the relationship seems very similar to that between BP Mods and Dovpo apart from ZQ Vapor do their own marketing. So far ZQ Vapor brought us the Xtal which is an excellent Caliburn alternative, The Trio a MTL RTA with Tri- airflow systems and the sibling to this the Essent DNA 75C Mod which accommodates either a 21700 or 18650 battery!

The Essent SE 80W Mod is a smaller device compared to the original DNA version accommodating an 18650 only, has the proprietary ZQ Chipset but maintains the same high end build quality and look!

Hosting Wattage, Auto, Voltage, Bypass, Curves and full TC Suite modes the classy Essent SE is well worth a closer look!

_________________________________________________________________________



Aesthetics and Ergonomics

The Essent SE Mod came in very compact cardboard pull out draw style packaging with a picture of the device on the front and a round sticker showing the colour of choice to the right top corner, contents etc are listed on the reverse. I received the Pacific Blue version which consists of a Pacific Blue main Aluminium Alloy chassis, with Stainless Steel buttons, exposed battery tube as well as top and base Stainless Steel plates! The options are Black, Full Black (DLC), Gunmetal or Pacific Blue.

The device is very plain looking with classic lines, the SE version in my opinion looks better than the larger DNA option due to both it's smaller size but also a subtle aesthetic carved design towards the front either side, within the design on one side we have "ESSENT SE" carved into the metal!


J09a4Bj.jpg



The face of the device has cut edging to add more aesthetic character yet no sharp edges, top central we have a protruding round fire button in the same colour as the main chassis with metallic edging which adds a quality aesthetic touch! Towards the bottom lined up vertically we have two elongated protruding rectangular navigational buttons also in the colour of the main chassis and with the same metallic edging. Underneath the navigational buttons again in a central position we have a Type C USB port and between the fire and lower buttons the colour display!

The spine has an exposed Stainless Steel battery tube which adds to the old school classy look but also helps to make the device ergonomic to both hold and use. To the base etched into the Stainless Steel plate we have both branding and safety marks, we also have an old school style battery plate which screws into position to secure the battery. Moving to the top Stainless Steel plate we have a 20mm slightly raised 510 plate with spring loaded, Gold plated 510!

The Essent SE is one of those devices which photos and pictures doesn't quite do it justice, in hand this is such a well made and in my opinion classy looking device! Also when shaking it gives no button or battery rattle whatsoever!

Fitting The Battery

The Essent SE accommodates a single 18650 battery which slides into the battery tube to the rear of the device. We have an old school battery plate with smooth threading and central section for grip! Looking inside the tube we can see positive vibrantly labelled and on the underside of the battery plate negative labelled in White, we also have a large central contact section for good connectivity, really can't fault anything, full marks!!!

Also the battery tube can be unscrewed and removed so I would guess there will be alternative tubes available!

The Display

I have never known a display that has such small font yet is that sharp I have absolutely no problem reading all the information provided! Apart from the CPS (curves) working screen the display looks similar in each mode but obviously focuses on Voltage in Voltage and Bypass modes and Temperature in TC mode! I will describe the display in Auto mode as that is the default mode!

Top left we have the battery status bar, top central battery life as a percentage and top right a padlock in either an open or closed position depending on the status of the navigational buttons. Underneath we have the mode which in this case is Auto and then below that the best from and to wattage recommendation, then underneath in much larger font than the rest of the information, the wattage!

In the bottom half of the display we have lined up vertically first the Voltage followed by the resistance and finally the amps. At the very bottom of the display to the left we have the puff count and to the right vape duration!

Operating The Device

The Essent SE is the usual 5 clicks of the fire button to turn on and 5 clicks to turn off and by default it will be in Auto mode but it does remember your last settings. Pressing the fire button 3 times locks the navigational buttons but the device will still fire and fire and down together resets the four digit puff counter.

In Auto mode it will automatically set to a suitable wattage for the resistance of your coil and also display suitable from and to wattage parameters, the device will allow wattage adjustment below the from wattage but will not allow adjustments above the upper limit instead you will get a "Max Wattage" message on the screen!

Pressing fire and up together enters the menu giving 3 options, Mode, Colour and brightness. Choosing brightness allows you to adjust the brightness of the display while choosing Colour allows you to change the colour of the accents on the main working screen, the options are Blue, Green, Orange, Red or Purple.

Choosing Mode gives a list of options which are Auto (default), Wattage (standard variable wattage), Voltage, Bypass, TC/TCR and CPS (curves mode)!

When choosing TC it gives you the option of either Ni, Ti, SS or three memory slots. When choosing CPS you have three memory slots to choose from which can then be used or adjusted. When on the main curves working screen to adjust press both navigational buttons together which then allows you to adjust each segment with the navigational buttons with fire moving to the next segment, there are 20 segments in total and when finished holding fire down for 2 seconds sets the curve!

The wattage adjusts in 0.5w increments and when not in Auto mode which limits the wattage but in standard Wattage mode it adjusts from 1w up to 80w and round robins.

Charging

As usual I recommend charging externally but if you do charge in the device we have a Type C USB connection and 2A charge rate. We get really good feedback during charging, on the display we have in a vertical position a large charging status bar, above that the charge is given as a percentage and below the time left to fully charge, the Essent SE also supports pass-through vaping!

My Thoughts!

The Coolfire Z80 has been the best 18650 device I have used this year due to the Innovation and I have also tested some top notch single 21700 devices but the Essent SE runs the Coolfire Z80 very close due to the excellent build quality and proprietary chipset that performed excellently albeit without testing the TC as I am just not a TC vaper unless it's TC done easy like Replay!

The buttons have a nice silent yet definite click and despite it's quite boxy shape it's very comfortable in the hand. Auto, Wattage, Voltage, Bypass, TC/TCR and CPS (curves) this has a mode for everyone and the curves feature with 20 segments allowing it to be set for a whole 10 seconds is particularly impressive and i really enjoyed testing this although about a 6 seconds puff is my limit!

It fires with no delay and I just can't fault it's performance, it really is an excellent device. Any cons really are just subjective and not for me like some might prefer it to maintain being able to accommodate a 21700 like the DNA 75C version but then one of the pros of this device compared to it's sibling is it's smaller more portable size and many MTL vapers still prefer smaller devices that accommodate their tried and trusted 18650 batteries!

I love the sharp display and how well laid out it is and having the choice of what colour to have the accents is another pro, for a device that has so many modes and other settings it's very user friendly and easy to navigate. I love the old school style of fitting the battery and orientation is clearly labelled, also with the battery tube being able to be unscrewed it does seem like other styles of tubes will be available which will allow for some customisation! Finally it will accommodate up to 25mm atomisers with no overhang which will cover the vast majority of atomisers that people would use on a single battery device, it has Type C USB, 2A charge rate with great feedback and supports both pass-through vaping and firmware upgrades!

Unless you are a TC user who swears by the premium chipsets like DNA or you particularly like features like Replay and using the Theme designer on Escribe then at only a third of the price the smaller and in my opinion even more aesthetically pleasing SE version is a no brainer, cracking device!

STOP AN EXCESSIVE FEDERAL TAX ON SAFER NICOTINE PRODUCTS

STOP AN EXCESSIVE FEDERAL TAX ON SAFER NICOTINE PRODUCTS
"
The House Ways & Means Committee has revealed that it is considering a tax proposal on nicotine and tobacco as part of the funding bill for President Biden’s “Build Back Better” plan. The provision is designed to equalize taxation across all tobacco and nicotine products.

In other words, the tax on demonstrably less harmful products like vaping, snus, and smokeless tobacco would be the same as the tax on cigarettes – the most harmful tobacco product.

In addition to taxing all nicotine and tobacco products as if they were a cigarette, the provision increases the Federal tax on cigarettes by 100%, and raises all other tobacco taxes up to this new level.

What does this increase look like for safer nicotine and tobacco products?

  • Nicotine used in vapor products (synthetic, TFN, and tobacco-derived)
    • $100.66 per 1,810mg of nicotine ( $0.05/mg)
    • To put this in more relatable terms (see the table below), this new tax would add $10.00 to a 30mL bottle of 6mg e-liquid. This is in addition to any state or local taxes people may already be paying........"

Stop a Massive Federal Tax on Safer Nicotine Products!
