    Tired of KF4 Leaks, time to try out some new atty's

    The Squape R is a bottom filler that fills just like the EVOD/Nautilus etc. You get access to the coil without emptying the tank, but it isn't good for temperature control for some reason. My other go to tank is a Russian 91%, which is a redesign of the Kayfun. It's advantages were used for the...

    Tired of KF4 Leaks, time to try out some new atty's

    I didn't find juice control at all useful, but then it was a (good) clone. I'd suggest the Squape R, but it doesn't match most of your criteria. In my experience, they all leak a small amount near the end of a tankful.

    Accidental Destruction of Vision Spinner II

    My guess would be that there was an amount of metal dust on the threads due to the repeated screwing and unscrewing. The oil carried it down to the centre-post where it would short. However that still doesn't explain how the switch was bypassed. It may have complained about a short every time...

    Voltage question

    All the voltage and current goes into the boost convertor; it doesn't add a bit to the battery voltage. Boost convertors work like the ignition coil in a car. You have a switch across a coil. Opening and closing that switch causes a large voltage across the coil because that's what coils do. A...

    Voltage question

    Working out amps with a regulated mod like you have is not totally straightforward. Say you have 35W at 4.7V, Watts=Volts x Amps, so Amps = Watts / Volts. You are drawing 35/4.7 = 7.4 amps from the mod. However the mod is drawing more than that from the battery. If the battery is fully...

    510 connector

    It's possible to make your own, but the thread is non-standard so you have to order the tap online anyway. The connector is probably easier to find. If you can't order online, you could always ask your local B&M if they would order it for you. There would be a 20-40% markup, but these things...

    The Legal Vape 4000 TC

    99% of all safety issues are avoided by current consumer protection legislation. It is currently less effective mainly because the authorities that are supposed to enforce it don't. However, it is the responsibility of the importer to ensure that the device conforms to local standards. Nowadays...

    The Legal Vape 4000 TC

    I think anything Phil Busardo does gets a free pass. ;) At least he doesn't actually try to vape the fog machine. There's a video out there where the guy does, with predictable if highly amusing results.

    The end of microcoils?

    Take care. Vodka at least promotes rust. Don't ask me how I know.

    Secondhand vapor....

    Oh wow; I get to trot this one out again: Are mobile phone masts bad for health? - Soronlin And back on topic, Nicotine absorbed from “passive vaping” is minimal and with no health implications "the levels of nicotine absorbed from “passive vaping” are not only harmless but do not even produce...

    It's official we're having a baby, I need some info

    I'd be concerned with lung development rather than the immune system, but my conclusion would be the same: keep it away from a new-born, but once they are older there shouldn't be a problem. Dr Farsalinos has a gloss of an anti-vaping study where he points out that it shows that the detected...

    Advancements in Vaping Technology...

    One idea I had a while ago was a swappable connection plate for the bottom of an atty/dripper. It connects the posts in parallel or series, or any other arrangement you want for the mad coil design you've come up with. It only needs to be a piece of high current PCB, although at high wattages...

    Advancements in Vaping Technology...

    Sorry to rain on your parade, VCross, but induction works because the magnetic field changes. The change in megnetic field induces a current in the pan and the heating effect of that current heats the pan. Just like transformers work on AC and not DC. If you could push the button 50 times a...

    .06 vs .1 min build - Does it really matter???

    I think Evolv suffered by being the first, but I love my SX Mini-Mclass (YiHi). The coil I built is 0.34 ohms -- higher than the mod is supposed to support -- but so far as I can see it just works. When the vapour gets thin I start wondering if the tank is dry or the battery is flat, and I...

    .06 vs .1 min build - Does it really matter???

    Then look at the chip not the mod. PBusardo has reviews* of the Evolv and Yihi boards, and the Evic-VT. See pbusardo - YouTube The lowest resistance or highest power is not the issue with TC at the moment. The issues are around the consistency of the temperature control, whether they allow...

    Just Being Honest

    The Craving does some strange things. Even when you're 100% vaping and perfectly happy with that, the Craving sometimes kicks in and demands a cigarette. You know for a certainty that nothing else will do; you must have that cigarette. Your subconscious still thinks that smoking is the answer...

    Cloud9vaping pulls Five Pawns and other liquids from the shelf after testing.

    double post Yes, over an hour apart. Don't ask. I'm a pillock.

    Cloud9vaping pulls Five Pawns and other liquids from the shelf after testing.

    Part of Dr. F's original study was checking that the results of analysing the liquid were comparable to analysing the vapour. They were. He only checked two liquids that way but got identical results for the vapour as for the liquid.

    Cloud9vaping pulls Five Pawns and other liquids from the shelf after testing.

    This is wandering dangerously far off-topic, but that is hilarious. It's also fun to spot the adverts that use existing tunes, and cut them just as they get to the highly inappropriate lyric. Sometimes they fade it at the precise lyric, but the one I remember is rather further off. Here's the...

    Cloud9vaping pulls Five Pawns and other liquids from the shelf after testing.

    I have a feeling at least part of the reason Cloud9 posted their results was backlash from their customers. Five Pawns eliquid is not easy to get on this side of the ocean and a good source drying up with no explanation probably brought letters of complaint and conspiracy theories. What they...
