    Comment by 'Coastal Cowboy' in 'Temperature Control Explained'

    @Old Greybeard Mine rarely get over 98 and some devices do well in the upper 80's. Eleaf (JoyeTech chip) devices seem to love the 90's while Smoant loves the 80's.

    Seeing through the cloud of media and political hysteria

    It's been hard to miss the nearly nonstop hysteria and political pearl-clutching in the media recently. About 500-600 people have been sickened by misusing electronic cigarette technology and tragically, a handful have died of stupidity. The national media, along with the usual suspects in the...

    How long do batteries charge for first time

    I just read a Sanyo NCR2070C 20700 with an infrared thermo, and it measured 85.4 F on a LUC2 at 1.0A charging. I had never thought to do that before.

    How long do batteries charge for first time

    I've been using two Efest LUC2 chargers. They charge every cylindrical li-ion size up to 26mm diameter and you can choose 1.0A or 0.5A. I bought two because I sometimes need four-bay capacity and if one charger goes kaput I can still charge cells with the other one. Not a day goes by without...

    This isn't going to be helpful

    Caveat emptor. Mom bought junior a mech mod, with likely neither one having even basic instruction on battery selection, battery safety or selection and preparation of a suitable atomizer. The VGOD packaging warns the buyer about the potential dangers of using the device improperly. So, why...

    Aww, shucks. :wub: One of my daughters gave me a copy of The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. That was Christmas. I finished it in three days, bought the sequel and finished that one in two days. Then I re-read The Hobbit, LOTR and Silmarillion. Then Jordan's Wheel of Time saga. Then...

    Garbage, Garbage, Garbage

    All RTAs have a design coil. If you put a 2.5mm coil in tank designed for 3mm, it will leak. Put a 3mm coil in one designed for 2mm or 2.5, it will dry hit. Reviews that show how the build is installed and wicked usually show which tank takes what and how to wick it. My favorite RTAs are all...

    Dishonest, paid reviews

    This. I'll watch a video to get a few tips on how to build or navigate a menu. You're better off getting opinions about this or that product right here. Youtubers don't often call junk "junk" because if they do that, the junkmaker will stop sending him/her free junk.

    DNA tc adjustments..

    I love the DNA250C too, but I'm also a big fan of the JoyeTech model. The JT has an advantage of being able to use either TCR or a temperature curve. It also has the advantage of cost--you can get a powerful, reasonably accurate and highly customizable JT mod for the cost of just the DNA chip...

    Seems like vaping has come full circle

    A sizable plurality (if not a majority) of current smokers aren't interested in rebuildable atomizers, temperature control mods, squonkers, etc. In these days of Starbucks and smartphones, who wants to physically and manually maintain anything? We do, but we're weird and geeky like that. And...

    It's a Storybook still being written. :2cool: I did finally get paid on my last pre-retirement project, so I have some extra cash to spend on the girls. I'll get something nice after their stockins are stuffed.

    I like the looks of the Coppervape device, but I don't own one. I have two of the OG Pico Squeeze squonkers, and they've been fantastic little devices. Even though Eleaf recommends building so that you don't exceed 50 Watts, they are NOT 50-Watt limited. I usually keep my builds around 0.35...

    JUUL to stop selling flavors in stores

    I don't see what the fuss is all about. Tobacco use has been declining for decades. Vaping peaked in 2016 or 2017. I would never make a long term investment in the vaping industry because the potential market is shrinking every day. JUUL, by dominating the pod vaping market, became the 21st...

    Are you done stocking up?

    That thread has moved too fast for me to pop in every few days and catch up. I've been busy with some local civic/service work that's more time consuming than work was. I may have to come out of retirement to get more time on my hands... And yes... you do need to get a squonker! Either of...
