    How low can you go? Mech mod resistance question

    I watched that video and it was illuminating in a sense. These guys are risking their life because they want strong, isolated 1 second or so bursts of vapor. He claims that's safe if you're willing to limit yourself in that way. Even without getting into the safety, I'm not impressed. What the...

    Measuring concentrates and making funk

    Most PG based flavorings are 40-50 drops per ml and I've heard of drops as small as 60 per ml. However it sounds like that recipe had plenty of flavoring even when using only half. I've found that some really great ejuice flavors taste like a unrecognizable wall of darkness when too strong. Many...

    Gradual Decreasing Smoke (I'm Sorry For Asking These Again!)

    As I see it, one can quit smoking with vaping and close to zero willpower, for a few it's even quick and easy. For most, the equation is: add willpower and you can really speed it up -- if that doesn't break the deal for you. But still, I think the only essentials are not giving up, and getting...

    Parallels?

    The usual reason for parallel is to use thinner wire which will heat up faster.

    Question on coil temperatures using VW at 12 watts .

    If it has trouble wicking it could. Or if the wicking is uneven it could burn some at one spot. I use about that coil + 1 wrap at 14.3W power mode or 16W in TC at 400 degrees and it only fully protects when running dry (RDA). Medium airflow, restricted DL. Settings same on 2 different mods...

    Gradual Decreasing Smoke (I'm Sorry For Asking These Again!)

    Sure it's a thing. I did cut back to half as many almost immediately, and it wouldn't be a good sign if you can't do that. That was to 7-8 a day. It took 9 months to take that down to 1 a month (which I did for another year, yes I really do believe it can help!). Progress was not for those who...

    What happens if your vape falls into the bathtub?

    It would probably keep working at first because it has no radio or high impedance circuitry. However you would want to yank out the battery immediately to avoid corrosion from forming, then you can dry it out at your leisure.

    Medical advice - for a moderator review

    I think it can be worth people asking here to see if anyone else has the same experience, especially if they resolved it. I'm not a doctor but I'm sure previous case histories are one useful source of information for them. On the other side, doctors are not experts on vaping so the main thing...

    Classy, Discreet Vape Recommendations

    Vaporesso Drizzle (or the Avail branded version, ExpressX) has taken over pocket duties from the old EVOD for me. Very small, seperable tank with 510, vape is good enough they ought to make a bigger version. 1.7 ml capacity, yeah right. Tips: all the rainbow colored ones in Avail the switch...

    finally made an E-Liquid that i like, how can i get it a little sweeter?

    When I started I did one flavor that was strongly flavored (not nearly as much as the OPs) and was really great for a half day. Then it became overwhelming and most of the flavors I used in it are still sickening to even think about.

    Suggestions on setup

    Yes the ratings are horribly inflated and we needed Mooch to do the manufacturer's work for us, but the result is quite usable and average specs for most of us. Would you still say not to use it? Not planning to order some, just wondering. My latest cell purchase was an eFest ... for a...

    FDA New FDA enforcement actions

    ^^-- It costs $1 to join the Avail club. Also if someone does come in and start vaping when no one's looking, it's all 0 mg now. ;( ... at any rate, that also relates to regulation, but is still a seperate item from labeling... well actually now that I think of it, Avail's juice bar is...

    E liquid Formula development

    If you need that much eliquid, you don't want it that strong, or as high PG, and still not as unknown -- where's the "development"? You might need it that strong in something that uses <10 ml a week. I buy flavoring in 10 ml bottles, and my favorite lasted a year.. :cool: ..

    Noob questions about e-liquid.

    In my experience, once juice turns dark it might taste fine at first but then the taste goes sour, like a buildup.

    FDA New FDA enforcement actions

    Why no juice bars (your last line) because of this? Avail is the only one I know of with one still (no eGos anymore though), and they carded me to buy a vape wipe! I don't agree that the government has any rightful authority to restrict the labeling, but do agree that making the label legible...

    DIY Must-Have Staples

    My tobacco go-to's are: Inawera Tobacco Absolute Garuda -- fresh leafy taste with a citrus note, NO smokiness, makes almost anything taste more natural. Hangsen Virginia -- mild, great tobacco base flavor. I do like the PST but consider it more a top note, .5% max.

    Nitecore I2 stopped working

    I have the "New I2" charger. Maybe they upgraded something in it.

    Converting Fahrenheit to watts

    There probably is a difference of calibration -- with SS wire this can easily happen since it sensing a small change of resistance. One of my points, relevant to the OP, is I'm still adjusting flavor with the power setting, not the temp setting. The power setting is a little higher than I would...

    Oops, well I like it

    That at least saves that PG, but seems a little awkward as a method. Using very subtle flavorings is good though. I often now use 1 drop per 25 ml (.1%) for supplemental flavors. Sometimes 1 drop per 50 ml, but only M-type needs as low as 1 drop per 100 ml (since I made some juice with that one...

    Considering an RDA.

    The Troll and Velocity are both high airflow designs for big clouds. The slanted air things on the Troll are adjustable, but can't be focused down to a hole like a slot adjustment. The original Troll does say it can be used with single coils, but the V2 looks like it can't. I can't even figure...
