    Rewicking issue.. Help please!

    Yes I do use an ohms meter and I check it twice. Once when it is rebuilt on the head and again when I attach it to the post and then I do a quick dry burn to ensure all the coils are lighting at once. As far as the ohms, 1.8 seems low to me. The heads read 2.4ohms so this was my understanding...

    anyone notice that some juices dry out your mouth more than others? same pg/vg ratios

    all of my flavors are from TFA which i thought were natural flavorings? Yeah they are both fruity and have pretty similar flavors. It just seems weird? this also occurred with the juices I got from my local supplier. Maybe it is just me. I know most flavoring concentrates are mixed with PG maybe...

    anyone notice that some juices dry out your mouth more than others? same pg/vg ratios

    Hey all, I have been doing some diy ejuicing and I have been vaping 2 I really like. They both have the same pg/vg ratio but one seems to dry out my mouth while the other doesn't. Anyone else experience this? Could it be the different flavors? and does anyone have a solution for this?

    How to get a wet hit?

    hey there, I have just started the fun and rewarding journey of DIY e juicing and I read somewhere on one of these threads about adding saline to the ejuice. Personally I have not tried this so I can't say that it works or not, but it is a thought although I would think it would make the juice a...

    Why are the threads on my new batteries stripping!!!! Replacement ideas?

    Mine are top coils! so will the t2 use the same heads for the wick and coil as the ce5? I have like 30 heads! if not then I guess I will use up what I got for as long as I can before I upgrade and just pray and hope the adapters dont strip out as easily as the threads on my battery. Newbie...

    Why are the threads on my new batteries stripping!!!! Replacement ideas?

    Thanks everyone! some very useful info here!!! Now that I have been thinking about it. I wonder if what I am doing is stripping threads. Sometimes when I get busy I will gently bite down on my drip tip and let it hang in my mouth (like an analog). I wonder if this is causing the issue of...

    Why are the threads on my new batteries stripping!!!! Replacement ideas?

    yeah, those are a bit expensive for me at the moment, but they do look nice I like the nautilus mini :) I noticed the ego t battery has inner and outer threads? is there a tank that fits the outer threads that I could use. I noticed they dont get used at all just the inner threads do. This way I...

    Why are the threads on my new batteries stripping!!!! Replacement ideas?

    I actually just bought 3 of those but they have not arrived yet! I also bought some new batts so i will be reserving them for the new ones.

    measuring question diy mixing help!

    I don't know about using teaspoons, I think that wouldn't be very accurate. I guess I could simply round up a bit but I thought the point of the calculators were to be exact? do they make smaller increment syringes than 1ml? I thought it would be easier to just get a 50/50 nic base at my...
