    silica wicks danger

    Hi, I used silica wicks for about 8 month when I first got into vaping a long time ago. Recently I read about some of the dangers of silica and I wonder how much risk I exposed myself to. Good thing is I've always kept my wicks well saturated when I vaped. Hopefully that cuts down on the number...

    Wires? Wicks?

    Ok so I've been vaping over 3 yrs and I'm wanting to learn to build coils. What wire do I choose? What wicks for best flavor?

    Do you vape mesh wicks.

    Well do you Punk..... How many people still vape on a mesh wick on a daily basis.

    Upper power limit (for avoiding burnt coils / wicks)

    Posting this here just in case anyone else finds it useful: Recently I had some discussion on a Thai vape forum about trying to establish a rough power at which self built coils on an RDA / RTA would be almost certain to give a burnt coil or wick. I had looked at all variations of ohms law and...

    wicks and such

    I'm currently using a blu pro unit, which uses a small tank called a clearomizer, and uses a wick to absorb and heat the eliquids. meaning if i ever want a different flavor I need a new tank. is there a vapor kit that I can fill a tank with any flavor and only need to clean it rather than...

    Amplevape Mace Tank Review - Revvo style coil...that WICKS?!

    The Mace Tank from AmpleVape is the third major release of a tank which takes the revvo style coil head and places it inside a tank. Where the Ample Mace Tank is different though is when it comes to how that coil is placed for wicking. With a juice flow system similar to the Aromamizer series...

    Bloody wicks?!

    Hi all I was rather enjoying my kensei rta for the first week, when I got this horrible dry burnt hit today. I took a look at the side of the tank and could almost see a little red seeping into the juice. Disassembled the tank and jeeeeeez! What is that red? Rust?

    letting RDA sit w/ juiced wicks?

    sorry if this is a dumb question but i couldn't find any answers in my search... i have two rda's all juiced up with fresh coils and cotton, figured it would be nice to have a couple flavor options at the ready. my plan was to swap atomizers throughout the day but with only one mod it's kind...

    Wicks & carmelization

    Obviously one would say that this is a normal thing that happens with ejuice. But I find that it mostly happens when I don't vape the last remnants of the juice that's on my wicks of my rda and the rda sits overnight. Also it's possible that a wick that is tighter in the coil, particularly a...

    Going through coils like cooked dinners

    Hi All! I bought the Innokin Coolfire IV around a month ago and I've found myself always needing it set to at least 27-30W to feel a cigarette-like sensation in my throat; otherwise I find it too weak. Every 3-4 days it starts to taste burnt and painful on the throat and then I have to change...

    help with silica wicks?

    Hello vape nation. Hoping to get some insight on using silica for wicking. I'll be getting my first rebuildable in a couple days (in transit now) and I already have organic cotton coming with it to build wicks. I'd like to also try silica and make a determination of what my preference is. What...

    Kayfun 1.8-2.0 ohm at 3.0 - 3.3V Rayon wicked 60% PG 40% VG ~20Mg NIC LA Cherry Every few tanks I swap the coil and rayon. The buildup is disconcerting. Its all over the coil deck too and down into the air tube. Is this just carbon? I've searched and found other threads a bit inconclusive...

    Please Help Patriot RDA and Caravela Mod Issue

    Items needed for basic building of rsst rba

    Hi, I'm thinking of getting the Rsst as an intro into building my own coils. It's getting too expensive buying kanger coils. My question is, I will probably want to try a couple different ohm levels. What would I need as a checklist/shopping list to go with my RSST? I am thinking of trying...

    Need an explanation about wick fiber liquid flow

    I'm looking for a scientific answer to this question. Is there anyone who can explain how fiber absorbs liquid towards a coil? If the wick is wrapped around the posts, will we lose liquid due to the inability for physics to pull the liquid to the heat source? Happy vaping.

    Anybody got some facts about silica and health?

    Wondering if anyone can find anything wrong with using silica wicks for health reasons. Or maybe just an argument for using cotton.

    What type of cotton to use?

    Sorry if this is in the wrong section; if it belongs in a different section please let me know and I'll remember for future posts. Also sorry if this has been asked already too many times, but would like some current info. Was just at the CVS and thought I'd look at cotton for wicking Kanger...

    Need an RBA Tank-style Recommendation

    I am starting to get the hang of the RBA, but missing my capacity and ease of use of my old Kanger Protanks. I'm currently using a Igo-W and doing dual coil builds. Want something similar, but Really want tank capacity. Any suggestions?
