    Care to post and share your SINGLE COIL Builds on the VELOCITY?

    I would do it exactly the same as a dual coil build, except minus one coil.

    What are your top dual parallel unregulated/mech mods as of mid 2015?

    My current favorite straight mechs are the Abaddon, Cherry Bomber, and the Dimiri. I am waiting on a copper MCV Raptor clone that is in the mail. I can't recommend that one yet, but it appears to be very similar to the CB except more elegant engravings, a flush switch, and with more delrin...

    How bad do you think Vaping is?

    I vape 3mg also, but I go through a lot of e-juice. And I can certainly feel the nicotine. I have been using nicotine for long enough that I don't get a buzz or anything, but I can feel it all day. And I like it. If it is too much for you and you can find 1.5mg then try it. I remember a...

    What is the best UK made eliquid?

    I tried some e-liquid by Perino that was pretty good. I picked up some yo-yogi at an expo in the UK. Perino London - Handcrafted e-liquid. Made in the UK

    Box caught fire

    I think everybody is being a bit hard on the guy. People make mistakes. In this case, nobody got hurt. So do it right next time. Get motivated. Take care of your gear. Keep posting on the forums. Keep reading and watching videos. Become a subject-matter expert. Building good coils is...

    New to Vaping. Not liking the milkman e-juice...

    The good milkman is made by One Hit Wonder. It is a huge bottle (180ml maybe?) and comes in a tube with two smaller empty bottles to use for portability.

    Box caught fire

    Lets call it an "unregulated box mod" but a mech it is not. There is a wire going behind the battery sled up to the MOSFET. There is also a wire going from the switch to the MOSFET. And there is a wire going from the negative on the 510 connection to the MOSFET. There is also a wire going...

    Box caught fire

    Yes, this is the most likely scenario, but I am trying to think of other possible ways it could have happened, since OP seems to think he inserted the batteries correctly.

    Box caught fire

    It is nothing like a CB (which is a great mech). This is not a mech, it is an unregulated MOSFET box with many wires. If batteries were inserted correctly, something is shorting the battery sled to the metal on the box, causing dead short. Or, some of the wiring has broken off of the solder...

    Figuring out the right build

    The vape is warmer and the wire has more surface area with a lower gauge. Your ID is good though. IMO, 6 wraps is good for just about any kanthal wire around 2mm ID. With different gauges of wire, the resistance will change, but the wire will heat up the way that I like it to. If using...

    MCV Raptor T6 - the new mech box from the guys who did the Cherry Bomber!

    Thanks, I am excited to try this mech. This mod and a good Incubus clone are the only things I have been patiently waiting for recently.

    RDA Sapor RDA by Wotofo

    I've got a Lethal RDA, which has been around a bit longer and uses the same kind of airflow as the Sapor. I get good flavor from it. The airflow feels different from a bottom or side flow RDA. I wouldn't say that I prefer it over anything else, its just a different way to do the same thing...

    They are safe because they did not explode. .19 is not going to cause a Samsung 25R to vent, especially in a parallel configuration. This is only around 10 amps per battery and those batteries have a 20A CDR (CDR is tested with the battery discharging 20A constantly for the full cycle of...

    Regulateds are better than mechs

    RDAs are better than RTAs

    basically a mech mod is...

    The CB works well. It is a hard hitting mech. The way it is designed, however, makes it possible to short from the outside if you intentionally try to or have gross negligence for the mod. These mods are made of metal... many highly conductive options are solid copper. This will scratch...

    I have one and love it. This mod is usually not recommended for someone new to mechs though. For a dual 18650 mech, try one of these clones: Dimitri box: Abaddon box: Or something with a similar switch mechanism.

    Regulateds are better than mechs

    The first stone wheel was a modified stone at the time. Then they became ubiquitous. At least, in that case, "wheel" is a simple and accurate term. But what about vaping battery holders? We don't have a simple useful term, other than 'mod', for these devices. They are not batteries. They...

    Regulateds are better than mechs

    In some mechs, like the mech box you depicted above, current is passing through the switch button. On others, like the Abaddon box, current does not pass through the button, only an external piece of metal that the button pushes against. But, even with a mechanical switch, a mod with wires and...
