    Would the Bolt be a good choice for an all day PV

    Using a kick with a higher ohm coil is less stressful on the wiring than a direct drive battery. If a person never wants to open up thier mod a do a little soldering iron surgery, then the Bolt might not be the best choice. It terms of probability of failure, there are better choices. In...

    Can we STOP saying Coffee and Soda don't hydrate?!?

    The underlying question is....how much coffee or soda? It is recommended that the average person should drink around 128oz of water per day to maintain a healthy level of hydration. The article says that 5-7 cups (40-56oz) of coffee can start to have a diuretic effect. Then if you switch to...

    How do you solder this 510 connector??

    You can also drill a hole yourself. I use a dremel and 1/32" - 1/16" bit, depending on wire size. Edit: I've also had better results using a mini pencil torch rather than an iron for this type of joint. Heat the center pin and place a "dome" of solder on the pin. Flux and tin the wire, then...

    Where To Buy Boxes????

    I just happen to be in the middle of nothing and far for modern civilization where most people don't mind all the noise (see avatar). There are plenty of modders shops and some pretty good B&M vape stores once you get to the populated areas.

    Gripper Discussion

    Most likely screwing down the atty too tight. We are all conditioned to think that if it has threads then it needs to be screwed down tight. This isn't always a good thing for us.

    It was the isolator inside the connector. Yours is the left and middle pieces, the good replacement piece on the right. Stolen from an old Boge cartomizer.
