    Lurker turned contributor...

    Welcome Oudakontrol, glad that you decided to de-lurk! I too am starting to take a closer look into the world of squonking. Its amazing the different directions this "hobbie" has taken me! I haven't got any really good sugestions on an RDA for you, but I am pretty sure that if you stick...

    Please allow me to introduce myself!

    I haven't really had leakage problems. If you mop up the excess juice, does it stop? If so, that may be due to extra pressure building up in the tank when you tighten down the top. If that is the case, it should straighten up and fly right after dribbiling a drop or two. I use rayon wick...

    Hello Halpin, and welcome to ECF! The SMM is the first RTA I have bought in probably the last few years, I have been really happy with it! Sounds like you made a good choice. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Good luck, best of wishes, and welcome back to vaping.

    Please help me with my doubts about laptop batteries

    Medea, I understand that you are on a tight budget. Have you considered buying batteries on line? Shipping may take a few days but, I have bought from these folks a few times. They are good to deal with. You can get some top quality Sony "high discharge " batteries for about $6.00 ea...

    getting there...enjoying the journey

    Hi lupinehorror! If you can heat up your VG a little by letting it sit in a bath of hot water for a few minutes, you may find that it is easier to work with in your syringes. I am glad to see that you are enjoying yourself! It can be very rewarding... and you can save a few bucks too.
