    LOL Sorry, I'm a scientist and can't resist (pun intended) :D! Your atty design addresses on of the biggests flaws in vaping, the dreaded, commercial atomizer. They all suck! Too hot, too cold, and just when you find a sweet spot, the atty gunks up and changes.....then it eventually fails and...

    Looks like it's easy to figure out the resistance. Measure the wire length in mm and multiply by 0.0449, that will give you the ohms resistance. Hard to guess, but the one in the video looks to be about 50 mm long. 50 x 0.0449 = 2.25 ohm

    I did watch it, but the macro on your cam doesn't work very well. It's impossible to see everything close-up.

    Anyone have some good, close-up pictures? I really want to see the atty up close.

    I like thick, cool vapor so I'm wondering if this will deliver. I keep my atomizers pretty saturated....right on the edge of flooding. Thanks!

    Interesting, so this can keep the mesh wet enough to not get a dry, harsh burn? I like a cooler vape, I usually use either a 2.5 or std 3.2 ohm atomizer with my 3.7v MonkeyBoxx. Is that easy to reproduce by adding more coils around the wick, i.e. longer coil wire = more resistance? Do...

    How does the juice feed system work exactly? The idea of rebuilding your own atomizers ROCKS! I'm sold on that because all commercial atomizers generally suck. I'm sick of buying them at $8 a pop and constantly cleaning them to keep the performance up.

    All Atomizers SUCK

    Over the past year I accumulated a bag of what I labeled as "weak atties". Recently I decided to attack these a little more vigorously since I essentially left them for dead. In the process I've discovered an improved cleaning techinque that most won't be able to do without access to the proper...

    I gotta agree with that. On a good mod cartos have a funny taste whereas an atty doesn't seem to affect it.

    IMO most all of the commercial ecigs are but toys. Once you move to a real mod, you'll never use any of these devices ever again. I go all day and night long with a single 18650 2900 mAh battery and a 6 mL juice reservoir. All of you newbies should just go right into one of these mods and avoid...

    Just search for MonkeyBoxx, Phidias, Hogg. You can also browse the suppliers forum section as there's quite a few nice mods out there.

    My problem is not with cleaning. I'm a chemist and I have every solvent available and a lab grade sonicator. I can get them clean. My process is more sophisticated than most, I run them through a solvent polarity ladder....I've found this works best. I use deionized water (18 Mohm), acetone...

    I've played a lot with various cartos too, they have their problems as well. But I do agree, they seem to be more consistent in vapor production.

    I've been vaping for over a year now. I've tried lots of devices and atomizers and have come to the conclusion that the atomizer is the WEAKEST link in vaping. Even though I dilute my 28 mg ejuice down to about 18 mg with PG/VG (70:30), my atomizers still get gunk on the coil. The black...

    Vapage - AMG Hybrid Bottom Feeder (2-pack) - 2.5 Ohm

    Yea man, I have no idea....it's got to be something with the connector in my MB. Remember, I am one of the early MB guys, I'm sure Tom changed his connectors over time. Hey, at least they work in my Phidias. An update, I'm not liking these much. They seem to require too frequent of cleaning...

    What's that smell???

    For me smell was the biggest change too! After a year now I can smell an analog from a LONG way away, I can even tell if someone is smoking in front of me on the highway. I can also tell that someone is a smoker when they walk by me. It's hard to believe how sensitive I am to the smell of...

    How many people actually saved money compared to buying cigarettes?

    Starting out is a bit expensive, but I've saved THOUSANDS OF $$$ in the past year. Not to mention, my lungs and everything else in my body is thanking me.

    EJuice? What is it all about? What is VG and PG????

    Welcome to ECF! VG = vegetable-based glycol PG = propylene glycol Ejuice is perhaps the most important part to vaping. It's extremely important you find a juice flavor that you enjoy or you'll have a tough time giving up the analogs. Feel free to mix anything you like. My preference is a...

    1 week into vaping and never going back!

    Over 1 year now....it was easy with vaping after the initial pains of figuring out devices and juices.

    You should dump the commercial ecigs and move to a mod.....just MHO. Once you find a nice juicebox mod (I prefer wood) you'll never go back to regular ecigs. The upfront cost will be higher, but cost of operation will be cheaper and you'll be more satisfied with the vape you get. It's easy to...
