    I vape far more than I smoke

    Your addiction habits will probably change a lot during the first year, i know mine did. At first i tried keeping my puff count under 300 since i had that fancy puff counting battery and i was told that would be the rough equivalent of a pack of cigs a day, i went through 1.5ml of liquid a day...

    Heartburn

    Nicotine binds to some of the receptors in the brain that tell it "Food is here" hence its controversial usefulness for weight loss. On the down side though, the stomach starts pumping out acid since its waiting for that food. Nicotine, caffeine and all other stuff that ends with "ine" also...

    Charging your Ego on your computer vs wall socket (Warning)

    bull...., standard is 0.5A for a regular usb2 and ive yet to see one thats not capable of it. If the charger is dumb enough not to limit the draw below that then it should specify charging usb which is a different standard.

    salt is also an effective anti-freeze, lets ban salt because that makes it sound scary

    Different 510 Chargers, What's The Difference?

    They all suck, the proper way to charge a li-ion is in 2 stages, first constant current equivalent or lower than the batteries C and then constant voltage of 4.2 to top it off. If you go straight to 4.2 you get an inefficient charge, if you go higher you're damaging the battery.

    I have a question about sub ohm vaping

    then you should know why its stupid, you can achieve the same result on a more reasonable resistance.

    Car window junk

    maybe my car has different internal aerodynamics but i never get that, the reason i mention aerodynamics is because i keep the little slit under the windshield constantly blowing on it or the window fogs up because its always wet and cold around here :p

    Ego battery getting hot while charging...

    Uh, no. Charging batteries getting warm is normal, its just that most people use those weak ... 0.5A chargers so for them it doesn't happen. OP: What kind of charger are you using? If its the minimalistic usb -> ego type things then those are little more than just socket converters, you could...

    Broke my e-cig today - game over

    surely you know at least one person that knows what a soldering iron is? also you're not a real man until you have a soldering iron and/or axe.

    Pleas don't cite wikipedia as a source for facts

    I've tried correcting wikipedia a few times, each time whatever i wrote was deleted the next day... call me a conspiracy theorist but i got a feeling some parties with agendas are keeping their greasy fingers on wiki to sway public opinion about certain things.

    When steeping, how many times...

    none, also if you can smell them through the bottle then get different plastic bottles since some of them cant keep the flavors from escaping.

    Amp Limit on FT Twist 1300mah

    pop it open and check whats written on the cell(s?) only way to know for sure. The various ego cells i've seen always sport a 1.5C LiCo though so its most likely 2A recommended specification, they aren't actually limited though so feel free to strap a subohm coil on it and blow your hand off :D

    Li-Ion Battery Use In VV/VW Mods

    As long as the drain is within the batteries specification there is no problem, those big 3+ Ah 18650's typically have C of 2 so they are good up to 6 amps. Using them in regulated mods is a whole other topic though. To put it very simply, the way the boost regulating circuits work is they...

    Irony

    That is indeed ironic but its attatched to e-cigs themselves rather than the guards behaviour/hospitals policy which i think the story is about. E-cigs are hilariously ironic in general due to the fact that the cigarette part of the name which initially contributed hugely to its quick spread has...

    Irony

    It makes it hypocritical but not ironic. Irony would require a related backlash of some sort. For instance, if the security guard suddenly fell ill after telling her "no tobacco products" and the only cure was tobacco products then that would be ironic.

    amp limit questions

    around 11 amps, you can run it as low as 0.38 ohms lico batteries are typically 1.5c limn are 10c lifepo4 are 35c c is the relationship between its capacity(in ampere hours) and how much current you can continuously draw from it(Ah * C)

    The dreaded burnt taste seems to be inevitable

    Thats the main reason i swear by rebuildables with SS wick, they do take some time to learn to build properly but are the most reliable devices out there. Alternatively you could switch to carto tanks and get prepunched cartos in big packs (which makes them around $1 a pop) and just throw them...
