    Dripping attys

    I use a TOBH. I only build single coils, but lay cotton over the entire liquid well. I also put a piece of sticky tape over the three 'unused' air holes. As long as the uncovered holes are not facing my me,never leaks. Even with 1ml of liquid. I love it! Sent from my GT-S7562 using Tapatalk

    I'm currently on holiday, and don't have the time to find it here today, but you need to find the continuous discharge rate, apply ohms law and make sure your coil is pulling well under your battery amp limit. 'baditude' here has some great blogs that explain everything. Sent from my...

    A digital multi meter can be found at any hardware store, and they're not that expensive. Youtube has some good videos on how to use a DMM with a Mech. Search youtube for, 'Mechanical Mod Safety,' or something similar. Sent from my GT-S7562 using Tapatalk

    Buy an ohms reader or digital multi meter first! If you haven't, learn ohms law. Learn how to spot a short. With no ohms reader you could be drawing too many amps from the battery and it could blow up! Do you know your battery continuous discharge rate? Please respond to the above!!! After...

    Help a noob, DIY VG

    There are some who vape VG only, (plus 10-20% distilled water). I see that as being the way to go for me in the not so distant future. Simple as it gets. Sent from my GT-S7562 using Tapatalk

    Explosion at Vape Blast

    berylanna: I'm on the same page as you. I think practicing safety with regulated first. Then using a Mech with a kick or fuse. Only then, should one remove a fuse, (if they want to), after much time and much experience. Sent from my GT-S7562 using Tapatalk

    Explosion at Vape Blast

    Alibaba.com has been mentioned here. Andrew Wong (AW) specifically told me that 'all' the AW batteries on alibaba are fake. That's one massive ebay type website with 100% fake AW batteries. What about the other batteries. Buying genuine batteries is essential, but not always the easiest thing...

    Explosion at Vape Blast

    I think it's great that this news is grabbing so much of our attention. Worldwide. It really does show that the vaping community cares deeply about safety and our public image. Ripples of this event, I have no doubt, will go long way in safety awareness in our community, to all the good, bad...

    Vaping 0mg

    Interesting you brought this up. I'm on 0-3mg, and I'm currently on vacation. I was worried my liquid was running low so I popped into the local drug store and picked up a bottle of VG, and vaped just that with a few drops of mint and later vanilla in my RDA. Now it's not the same as say 6mg...

    Recommended RDAs?

    I've only a TOBH. And it is airy. Even with two holes closed. I used my Protank with aerobase yesterday and boy did it feel tight compared to the TOBH. I really do like it. Still trying to get more flavor. It's taking some experimenting. But I'll get there I'm sure. Sent from my GT-S7562...

    How to stop RDA screws loosening?

    Thank you. I'm getting some new screws, so may be some longer ones and some washers is a good idea. Getting to learn my kit is something I had forgotten regarding my RDA. Thanks for the reminder. A check every 8 hours seems about right. Thank you both [emoji4] Sent from my GT-S7562 using...

    How to stop RDA screws loosening?

    Just seriously got into RDAs. Currently using a TOBH. What I'm finding is that at least one screw is coming loose once day. Usually on the earth post. My MVP is switching off as the loose screw is creating a short when this happens, and it's causing the ohms to go up, never down, but...

    What's so great about Provaris?

    How can the MVP last longer? It's a throw away device. Sent from my GT-S7562 using Tapatalk

    Noob RBA question

    This is why I recommend one ohm reader for home and a second to take out and about with you. Anything can happen. Dropping a Mech or oil loosening the screws can cause slight problems that could end up very bad. Sometimes, however rare, something happens which could change the ohms or cause a...

    New member new to vaping saying Hi!

    Welcome. Would love to see a picture of your case when finished. Happy to read you quit cigarettes. The feeling really is just great isn't it. I started out using 18mg nicotine, and now I'm down to 3-0mg. Nearly there. But I'll be keeping my vaping kit around, I enjoy it too much. A lot of...

    How to tell when to charge battery on mech mod?

    Use a DMM for the home and a 510 ohm reader for out and about. For example, if you dropped your Mech while you were out, you'd have no idea if the fall had shifted the coil or something else, possibly creating a short. In this case, having a 510 ohm reader with you would be invaluable. They're...

    Sub ohm and batteries

    Papa_Lazarou: "Like the back of your hand." Well said. In my opinion, a person must know the formula so well that all they need is a calculator. In time, memorizing certain equations becomes second nature. Do the math, enjoy it or move to regulated. Sent from my GT-S7562 using Tapatalk
