    Why would anyone use a series mod?

    Yeah, electrically it's poor practice to expect to drive .1 ohm or whatever. It only takes a few hundredths extra in there to totally mess things up. And if I take a regular ohmmeter that costs hundreds of dollars and measure the coil, the probe contact resistances can easily swamp the result...

    Temp control vs wattage

    You also can't use TC with poor connections, which is what resistance jumps are telling you is happening. But then, wattage mode can also give sudden increases of power in response to unstable resistance readings. Unfortunately, if you have TC on your mod it probably doesn't have voltage mode...

    Notch coils and ceramic coils

    There's more than one kind? I wouldn't call them Very Large, I'd call them Ridiculous. I thought it was a great idea until I saw one and it was about twice the size I expected/hoped for. I'm actually thinking about trying mine though, the Wismec Theorem it came with is ridiculous too, what an...

    My lungs hurt and I am worried.

    Is there any burning or acrid taste or smell? You could be overheating the juice. Also, old style eGo vape pens, especially the top coil type, wick poorly with VG. Previous heavy smokers sometimes complain of a "heavy lung" feeling from high VG, myself included. I don't use past about 55% VG...

    Bad news for a B&M I go to

    I think a common thread of the businesses closing due to regulation now, that we've heard of here anyway, is they have done well. On the one hand, they're cutting and running. On the other, they do actually have something to lose. Which means they could fight on, but are choosing not to because...

    Less Harsh Experience

    Vuse uses 45 mg/ml liquid; while the vapor output is low and total nicotine is not real high, they're definitely very nicotine flavored.

    What set up for testing recipe mixes?

    I make flavors mainly for a dripping flavor adventure so that's how I try them out. No rewicking.

    How often do you crave a cig?

    One more thing about cigarettes (sorry, after the previous exchange): anyone else ever feel like they needed a smoke, only to look down and realize you're already smoking one? The things don't even satisfy the very urge they create! Never had that with vaping, although how much of that is...

    How often do you crave a cig?

    I wouldn't recommend someone trying a cig who hasn't had one in quite long. But I know what will happen if I have one, I'll be done with it after the first, better drags and then go back to vaping. One of the advantages of quitting through dual use. Wow, the mental associations some of us make...

    FDA FDA Released New Interpretation of Compliance Policy Guidance PDF

    When someone who knows the answer won't give it, the answer is the one they don't want to give out. I believe you're confusing extraction of flavor. Nicotine levels are insignificant. The only vaping-specific extraction of nicotine I've heard of is for Whole Tobacco Alkaloids, used by perhaps...

    Isnt it beyond all madness they're banning vape products in the U.S.?

    They know the lesson of Prohibition well enough to not try it with tobacco but think they might have gotten vaping in time. It *is* small enough that it could be effective in suppressing vaping without backlash; it's right at that point it's hard to predict. A ban also could still cause an...

    Is it "bad" to pre-mix unflavored ejuice?

    I make a lot of small bottles and like to mix on a whim so for that the premix is good. I don't use it for high flavoring or high nic juice which currently is one flavor. Otherwise I don't usually change the base mix to compensate for flavors anyway. More likely bump the PG up .5 ml for an extra...

    How often do you crave a cig?

    I still have a smoke when I want one bad enough. I still like the first drag or two a lot and try to remember to pay attention because this is only once. I kind of think of it as another flavor of inhale (excellent but does interfere with the others and has a an extra bad aftertaste) and also...

    First mod thingee

    ^^-- my first would auto fire when the battery ran low. First thought I'd live with it but changed my mind. I don't usually use TC, but when I did and it locked up it would be at full "preheat" voltage level. As to the Melo tank, it's almost worth getting just to experience an amazing piece of...

    Favorite Tobacco E-liquids 2017

    I went to one shop that had probably over 10 tobacco flavors to try, but it made for a lot to sort through and I ended up going with the first one I tried and the strongest. When buying juice due to the cost I always ended up wanted something impressive and may have missed out on a lot of good...

    Is my DIY plan feasible ?

    Might consider some other tobacco than RY4D, it's good but more a strange caramel (not tobacco+vanilla+caramel, something in between. I like Tobacco Absolutes, Hangsen, Ina-TDM. Hoever, if you have some good generic tobacco ejuices that are just a little generic to use by themselves, they can...

    And now they're coming after drippers.......Monday morning junk science edition

    That's why I said "if really clean vaping", I've never been able to get an RTA to work to my satisfaction, don't know if others are less critical or just better. I certainly can't say I've never gotten a dry hit on the RDA though, I often go until it gets a little "woody" tasting and worse, once...

    And now they're coming after drippers.......Monday morning junk science edition

    Somehow they go on and on while keeping it mysterious enough it sounds scary instead of simple. "temperature" is the latest scare word, funny my RDA would be considered a chilly vape by most peoples' standards. There is something about not tasting the beginning of a dry hit and it probably isn't...

    Stop the DIY madness

    I agree with all 5 points they made, those ARE the arguments against. I'm sure we can find 5 positive things about DIY as well, they even mentioned some. (I still use a small amount of bought juice.) humm.. 1. 8/8/2018 2. cheaper long run or cost strategized (not that easy) 3. experimentation...
