    RDA Sapor RDA by Wotofo

    I've got a Lethal clone, which is a top airflow RDA that directs air right above the coils in a similar way. It also brings flavor, surprisingly, but the pull on a top airflow device, IMO, is a very different kind of draw. It just has a different, almost airier feel to it. I prefer the way it...

    If it was switched like the CB, there would need to be non-conductive insulators around where the atomizer is mounted (like the CB has). But the Lethal doesn't have that. ETA: That being said, the CB is a great mod. Any mod can be dangerous if used in ways not intended. I don't think its any...

    I don't think the Lethal Box works like that though. The battery negative is always touching the box because they are screwed in. I haven't actually tried it, but its definitely on my list of mechs to get. Its got a top mounted fire switch on the opposite side from the atomizer... kind of like...

    Hells gate won't fire

    You will have to measure it. Do you have a multimeter? The battery contacts should have 4.2 volt with the batteries in place. The 510 pin on the mod should have 4.2 volt when the switch is pressed. If not, something in-between is not right.

    RDA Single coil vs duel coil? Flavour chaser

    yes, I agree, and this was what I was trying to imply. build it for a target vape, not a target resistance, as long as the resistance is safe for your batteries. My answer to OPs topic question is: IMO, dual is better. You can open up the airflow more and still get a warm dense vape. Its more...

    RDA Single coil vs duel coil? Flavour chaser

    Now you adding too many variables. I was talking about using the same wire with the same guage. I build RDAs every day. Always at least 2 coils. I generally use 24g or 22g. Usually either kanthal or nichrome. Sometimes I will do duel parallel builds with the 24g. And always on various...

    Hells gate won't fire

    OK, check the switch. It would also help if you had a multimeter so you can see where to current stops. Hells Gate is unregulated, right? It is going to be a very simple circuit. You can figure it out.

    RDA Single coil vs duel coil? Flavour chaser

    What I mean is that if you have a single coil at 1 ohm, and then build a dual coil build with total resistance of 1 ohm (so two 2-ohm coils), then the dual build is going to take twice as long to heat up. Sure, the circuit has exactly the same amount of power, only now that same power has twice...

    RDA wicking problem? or coils?

    it looks decent to me. I would take the wick out, then burn all that gunk off the coils by just firing it and letting them glow for a few seconds. Make sure they are both lighting up simultaneously. If not, just give them a few light scratches across the coils with your tweezers, and then...

    It's not that hard to know what you are doing though. 1. get good batteries 2. understand how your unregulated mod works 3. test your atomizer builds on an accurate resistance meter I actually think these safe practices should be something that all vapers take part in, not just mech users.

    Hells gate won't fire

    check the 510 pin first. Is it adjustable?

    RDA Single coil vs duel coil? Flavour chaser

    True, but if you want it to heat up in the same time and have the same kind of response to the fire switch on the mod, then you NEED to drop the total resistance when adding coils. For example, if you already have a good vape with single coil using a 0.5 ohm coil and want to add coils, it is...

    About Mech mods

    I've got a Samurai Bonzai, its a great RDA. IMO, its a flavor chaser, but it makes the clouds too. I don't have a Lethal Box... I did just try to search it and came up with a triple 18650 box that looks sweet. I do have one triple 18650 box built from a Hammond box though. It's a good mod and...

    It would be useful for me. I'd just like to know if its something I could purchase.

    @perseas I would like a silver coated switch spring for the v4. Is it possible for VapourArt to do this?

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    0 is less than 1. -1 is less too.

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    Propaganda is misleading, biased information. 'Harm reduction' is not misleading, and accounts for all possibilities down to 0, all of which are good. We do definitely know that nicotine is a stimulant and a vasoconstrictor. There could be some health benefits to it, but those are not proven...

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    I don't like the 'no known' part. We don't know the long-term health effects. And I don't like admitting that I don't know. I would rather say that vaping is much better than many other things.

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    nobody said there is anything wrong with vaping. long-term health effects have not been proven, but, even if there is, they are almost certainly better than smoking. 0 is less than 1. its a health improvement aka harm reduction.

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    so we could just say that vaping appears to show health benefits over smoking, rather than that vaping reduces the harm from smoking? i think thats pro-vape semantics.
