    My ejuice is not thick enough (DIY)

    I'm not sure what it is TBH but I know Lorann's flavorings just haven't worked out for me all that great. Reading your op again you've got flooding going on. If there was just juice on the wic you wouldn't have too much spitting especially once you start to draw from the mouthpiece and move...

    My ejuice is not thick enough (DIY)

    in the future i would veer away from Lorann's flavorings. They use a lot of coloring and oils that are really not good to inhale. My first diy outing I got Lorann's red delicious licorice and had a very similar experience. Come to find out the oils and coloring used in the flavor doesn't...

    ohm meter not working

    if none of that works make sure the screws on your posts are nice and tight. sometimes my ipvmini2 will read a coil's resistance even when my ohm reader and vv v2 show that I've got a problem somewhere. just a thought

    I need advice not abuse

    for future reference with that atty... If you're not aware additional coils divide the overall resistance. 2 coils = Ω/2 3 coils = Ω/3 4 coils = Ω/4 and so on. So getting down to at or below .1Ω gets easy pretty quick when working with 6 coils. You also want them to be as similar as...

    Best of the best charger?

    Another endorsement for Xtar here. I have had the vp1 for over a year, hundreds of charges and it's still going strong. Never even been warm. The VP1 came with a 2 year warranty (VERY limited lifetime) Which gave me a little peace of mind. Xtar's prices are a little high, but you get what...

    Coil question?

    To simplify it even further the lower the gauge the thicker the wire and more that needs to be used the more material that needs to be heated the longer it will take to heat said material.

    interesting phenomenon

    Around the time I first started to re build I was sitting at my computer drinking a cup of coffee and building a coil for my igo w. I had just woke up more or less and wasn't really all there when I wicked and juiced up the atty. I fired it for a bit without the cap, blowing it to try and...

    Weight Gain

    If you were drinking, smoking, and doing other recreational activities and you stopped all of them around the same time.. It's only natural to gain weight. Baditude hit the nail on the head, you've probably replaced those addictions with a food addiction. The thing about food is you normally...

    at the grocery store.

    ^^ kinda agree.. I don't know if people are necessarily being rude by vaping in places that we all kinda know we shouldn't.. but I worry about anyone who has trouble going through a shopping trip without a toot or three. Sometimes you should just be able to leave the vape at home while...

    capella flavouring 16% to 20% difference?

    Start low move up until it tastes right. You can always add more but diluting it out to compensate for adding too much flavoring isn't so much fun.

    Vaping on tight budget

    if you learn to build your own coils safely and mix your own juice well, it becomes even cheaper. I have an app that tracks things like cigs not smoked, money not spent on cigarettes, money spent on vaping, and the difference between the two. It's been a little over a year since I stopped...

    What's the (continuing) attraction of mechanical mods?

    Price will probably be a big factor here too. You can get a mech mod clone for 10 or 15 dollars right now. The originals are highly overpriced (my opinion) but clones can be picked up in pairs or by the half dozen for the same price as a 30 watt regulated mod. That's just really hard to beat...

    $15 for a build really?

    He wanted something done to a point of quality he was unable to attain himself.. It is entirely up to the individual weather the price for having something done better than they could do it is worth it or not. Greed is a pointless word in this situation. rather than compare coil building to a...

    $15 for a build really?

    The best way I've seen a shop handle this type of thing is like this.. They do NOT rebuild for anyone ever. It's just a bad practice liability wise anyway.. and according to the owner when they did builds for people the amount of times they would have to re coil an atty because some of...

    Any "older" members still recall the time when smoking was acceptable indoors?

    Maybe its because I live in las vegas but I saw smoking sections in a ton of places until mid 2000's Up until a few years ago you could still smoke in the bowling alley right there next to your lane, even sitting next to the ball return. Imagine that... Now the cry about the kids, but...

    Vaping destroying my stamina?

    I would concur with the opinion above. When you don't do something a much as you once did you aren't going to be able to do it as easily. That is plain and simple. Unless you just stopped playing more often last week this would be the main possibility for a contributing factor. You said you...

    Tasting flavors

    This is true but overall it has to do with what flavors you're dealing with... If the first is a strong overpowering flavor sour, tart, menthol, distinct flavors it will take longer to be replaced by the second flavor. If the second flavor is stronger then it will be easier. Also if you're...

    First time coil builder

    You need to know all the variables of the equation to get an outcome.. http://www.steam-engine.org/coil.asp That is very powerful but still won't help without knowing what wire you're using, or the size of whatever it is you're wrapping your coil on.
