    Suncoast Vapers Club Meet-Saturday, April 20th 2013

    Missed the last meet up (due to someone actually having the nerve to celebrate their birthday on the same day!). Looking forward to this one.

    Well you could try 0.8. You must be wrapping a very fat wick if a 3/2 of 0.7 is giving you 0.9Ω. My wicks are as fat as the wick hole and I get between 6.5 and 7.8Ω.

    Anyone know where there are ANY genesis hybrids in stock?

    Enyouk, let me help you with your reading skills. IN STOCK

    Be careful ordering o-rings to match your atty's. While we Americans use AS568 sizes, most of the planet uses Metric sizes. I just received a bunch of lovely colored o-rings (various materials) none of which fit the device I ordered them for because I didn't think before I jumped!!! I ordered...

    Here is some interesting info on cleaning silver. It rates the various products based on how abrasive they are. Baking Soda and Tarn-X seem to be on the "do not use" list! I have found that the baking soda didn't really work for me. After cleaning my contacts with it, I then used some Weiman...

    Praise for the DID

    DID air holes are 1.2mm. At one time Jim offered a 1.0mm top cap as an option. All Zen's products are much airier than DID's. It's up to personal tastes really. I sold my ZAP 24 hours after I bought it. For me, it was much too airy. I don't really see the pleasure of a "lung" inhale, but some...

    Here is where I buy mine. Lots of different sizes! Kanthal D Ribbon - Zivipf Onlineshop I use 0.6 and 0.7 (when I need to punish my lungs!)

    Here's a pic of 0.6 Ribbon at 0.8Ω. Also, a great way to cut down on the heat sink effect of too much mesh is to use a hybrid wick with 3mm silica inside an outer wrap (30mm) of ss mesh. IMO you get faster heat up times, same flavor as straight mesh and perfect wicking. Since trying it...

    I use 0.6 ribbon Kanthal 3/2 on my DID which meters out at about 0.8Ω. You probably don't want to use a shortstop on a mech device running very low ohm coils because if you draw over 5 amps it will trip. Just use good IMR batteries and common sense. Personally, I like a coil around 0.8Ω because...

    Holy ....... that's funny! Tony, you should show this video to the passengers on your plane with the caption "this is your pilot!"

    I've had firing issues in the past but since I learned "the secret", I have no more issues. Take the entire button assembly apart, o-rings, everything. Now when you put it back together, the key is to make sure you use the delrin button alignment piece, included in the bag of spare parts. Hold...

    I've said it before and i'll say it again. the Did is the most under-rated Genesis atty on the market. Why? Because it's readily available! All these hard to get genny's with multiple wick holes and reduced chambers ......... With a 3.5mm wick hole you don't need to use a U'ey because the fatter...

    VERY radical. I need to see more of it before I decide if I like it. I imagine it will dissipate heat very quickly!

    I'm like Dspin on the air holes. I've never had a genny wick with the screw in. Maybe it's the ohms of the atty? I use 0.8Ω. I don't know ..... While I'm at it, how does a genny over wick? It's never happened to me either. Does the juice gather in the cap?

    I was thinking the same thing as well Brigit. Actually, I also saw some thin stick on wood veneer's that might look sweet. Oh why can't I just be happy with the status quo! Always looking for something new that I don't need!!!

    The smallest leather wrapped metal cigar tube I can find is 0.9" in diameter. That would be a little large. I was just thinking that if there was one made that was the perfect size, you could just cut it exactly the same length as the pants tube and slide it on. Maybe I'll just stop by a cigar...

    Brigit, what size cigar tubes are you using? I see they come in sizes that accept 52, 54 and 56 ring gauge cigars. I'm assuming that you are cutting the cigar tube and using the metal tube with leather wrap as a replacement for the pants of the Poldiac? If someone has digital calipers, could you...

    Hold each piece up to your computer screen. One will be easier to read text through. That is the coarser mesh.

    should we be stocking up just in case

    It will not freeze solid. I store mine in 100ml colored glass bottles with Euro Dropper caps so that less oxygen gets into the bottle when I extract the base. Oxygen is the main enemy of stored nic base, as well as light. Freezing simply slows down how fast the oxygen molecules disperse into the...
