    Switching from smoking to vaping -- a sort of poll

    I only smoked around a quarter of a pack a day, "additive free" and "medium taste," for 9 years. My biggest crutch has always been the after dinner smoke. It was a ritual I looked forward to very much, but over the years I realized how much I was smoking and wasn't happy with that fact...

    can anyone else in Minnesota (or other very cold mid west areas) relate to this right now?

    Lol Ashabrown, I heard this Sunday/Monday it's gonna drop to like -20°F before factoring in windchill. Cold really isn't an issue for me, I vape outside my workplace in the freezing cold but because I use a dripper I haven't had any issues. Don't get any weird leaking because you control exactly...

    rebuild pt 2 wick

    You don't need a butane torch. Organic cotton obviously doesn't require torching, neither does kanthal. You can also get annealed kanthal straight off the spool. Kanthal A1 Wire 30 Gauge 250 ft 0 97oz Resistance Resistor AWG A 1 | eBay For torching silica, a simple lighter works just fine...

    What do you do after you've been sick?

    Yes, both have antibacterial and antifungal properties. Don't be misinformed - this will not keep you from getting sick or allow you some resistance to bacteria. It should deter the formation of colonies in and around the juice reservoir areas, that is all. I still recommend everyone give...

    Frustrated with ego-c twist

    I second what Baditude said. MVP rocks, it's affordable, and (mine) has performed amazing in all ways since I received it. Use it constantly and without issues.

    Safety//Differences of PG v.s. VG???

    I adamantly disagree, I can taste PG a mile off. I vape only 100% organic VG and even a drop of a PG liquid in my RDA is noticeable. I'm also allergic so there could be a link. I also disagree that PG is for better flavor, and VG is just for vapor. More like PG for TH without increasing your...

    Holy wow, cotton IS amazing!

    Congrats, I knew I wanted to get into rebuilding right away when I started and yes, it's definitely a world of difference. I generally change my cotton wicks out once a day since I vape NETs and desserts mostly. If you notice flavor going off, not bad, but off... then that juice might require...

    Whee!!! Christmas vape mail!

    I ordered a $50 Atomo clone but my funds are stuck in digital purgatory because I think I forgot to put "United States" in the box on checkout. Oh... and some relatives sent me $50 in the mail which I planned to buy juice and some new batteries. Letter arrived empty and tampered with. My...

    Help a new guy

    First question that comes to mind is; where did you buy your eGo T kit from? Do you have a link? Second... that kit in particular (eGo Tank) is known for being one of the worst in terms of flavor and vapor. But this is just the cone + atomizer section that isn't up to snuff. There's a whole...

    Greetings fellow Vapernauts

    No probs! I own a MVP v2.0 and it's definitely my favorite APV, despite only going to 5v or 11w. No pulsing, so you get a nice consistent vape, everytime. As Tinkiegrrl mentioned the battery is 2600mAh which lasts me at least 2 days, also a plus. It's quite affordable and feels manly in my...

    Greetings fellow Vapernauts

    No, no. You're absolutely right... almost. Variable Wattage is fantastic in that, you can easily and quickly identify what level your vape tastes the best at. It is however still possible to set it too high depending on your juice, airflow, and what topper you're using (Specifically your coil...

    So where does the actual battery voltage itself come into play?

    Variable Wattage does not suffer from voltage drift like a standard regulated mod or (as far as I know) any VV mod or VV/VW mod in VV mode. You will though, still notice a slight decrease in vapor production as it reaches 3.4v. Just because it's giving you a set wattage doesn't mean voltage...

    Greetings fellow Vapernauts

    Congrats CykoDad, welcome to the ECF! :) It's really great to hear success stories. I'm over a month analog free myself, despite vaping for close to a year now. Not everyone is the same. It can certainly take some patience in narrowing down what works the best for you, but generally, a great...

    Something I've noticed about vapers...

    Never actively or purposefully tried to convert anyone. Certainly have never said "Here try this instead of whatever it is that you like to smoke," while I shove my mod in their face. That being said, I'm quite vocal and descriptive when people are curious and ask questions... which they tend...

    xmas and beyond wish list

    Hah, definitely that one. Thankfully organic cotton is cheap.

    According to B&M, RDA won't work on a VV/VW mod?

    I use my Optimus S and Youde IGO-T on my APVs every day. Yes, it's true, you cannot fire a coil below 1.2Ω, but that doesn't mean you can't get a great vape with a micro coil & cotton setup at low resistance. In fact, my current build is exactly 1.2Ω :D The dude was probably thinking of sub...

    Looking for the best deals. Help please.

    Gotsmok is a great place to find mega deals, coupons, and interesting things you don't normally find. Beware, MANY of the clones listed are from FastTech. But there are a bunch of deals they post that aren't. Other good places to find cheap, reliable items: Madvapes - Electronic Cigarettes, E...

    Provari or MVP?

    It's a LIPO. Grimm Green has his MVP v1.0 for ... 2 years? Was still working last time he mentioned it in a video, but he uses the v2.0 now.

    Provari or MVP?

    Much agree here. MVP v2.0 is a great mod, and I've heard one of the few that delivers as consistent of a vape as the Provari. I use mine ALL the time. It should be noted though that much, if not most, of the satisfaction you get from a great vape comes from your topper. Coil, wick, airflow...

    Pictures of your setup

    As I understand, .2Ω is never safe. Too many variables can cause a .1Ω drop and possibly serious amperage draw. I would say it's in your best interest to put an extra wrap on there so you can hit .3Ω and vape with the comfort knowing you aren't doing something incredibly risky. Seriously, be...
