    Genesis coil with SS mesh not wicking well!

    I don't think there's anything wrong with these kinds of builds in theory, but all of the builds I've seen on YouTube are 4 or 5 wraps. I think that the fewer the wraps, the fewer hotspots to deal with. I've been using 32 gauge (4 wraps) because it's been working well, but i'm going to start...

    PRO-RINGS : As of 2013 (year-end)√

    Interesting development, I emailed ProVape to ask whether any shipping alternatives are available -- for smaller things, some vape places will put the item in an envelope, and ship it through the regular mail (no tracking number, of course). ProVape told me that there is an option to do this...

    Unrelated thread, you guys are nice.....please help

    I can relate to how you feel, on YouTube demo videos, everything looks so much larger and more manageable. I, too, have hands more used to holding drum sticks than to wrapping tiny wires around a drill bit, but it actually becomes pretty easy with a little practice. The KayFun is a really good...

    Genesis coil with SS mesh not wicking well!

    What are you using for a build? Looks like a lot of wraps. One thing I notice from the video, it looks like the wick is too thin for that coil -- it seems to slide in without any friction. Either the coil is too big for the wick hole, or the wick isn't big enough. You will not get your best...

    Genesis coil with SS mesh not wicking well!

    Greetings, and welcome to the forum. If you're new to vaping, and are starting out with a genesis-style RBA, that's very ambitious! There may be no hot spots when you first test your coil, but I've found that this can change once you add e-liquid and raise the voltage. What happens if you...

    PRO-RINGS : As of 2013 (year-end)√

    The new ProVape ring looks great, but I just can't my head around paying $36 and change for international shipping for a small item like this. It looks like the only option available at this time for these Kir Fanis/GR-modders rings is polished SS version with a dimple pattern. Shipping to...

    Which tank should I use?

    At my favourite vape shop, I asked about the Aerotank and Nautilus, and the sales person told me that the Nautilus is a better choice. I no longer use clearomizers, but I was pretty happy with Vapeonly/Aspire stuff in the past. Welcome to the forum btw. -- Glenn

    Help with Resistance and voltage please!

    Greetings and welcome to the forum. I've never used a Pro Tank 3, but with a clearomizer very similar to the Hypertank (i.e. one that uses the same replacement coils), I generally vaped at around 7 watts though, as mentioned above, it really comes down to personal preference. I dimly...

    Two Vamo questions

    Greetings and welcome to the forum. If your Vamo has lines around the body like in the picture below, it's a V3 (there's a Stainless Steel version of the V3 without the lines.) Here's a Blog describing some of the differences between the various versions: Vamo V4 & V5 Variable...

    ZHF Kayfun lite plus clone

    Greetings and welcome to the forum. It really is 'buyer beware' when it comes to some E-Cig vendors. Certain places -- and I learned this the hard way as a newcomer -- list knock-off devices without any brand name, making it possible to assume it's the real thing. At least with this EBay sale...

    Crap... I researched Provari all night.

    Ok, 'please, do not do it!' Which probably didn't help, so here's another thought; if you spend your entire vape budget on a ProVari, then lost it or had it stolen, you'd be in a corner. You could get something like at MVP2 for around half the price of a used ProVari, and still get a great vape...

    Jugheads

    I haven't ordered JH's Cinnamon Hearts yet, but I will definitely use it in a glass tank device when I get this e-liquid flavour. Cinnamon will almost certainly crack plastic tanks. -- Glenn

    Suggestions for getting back into Vaping?

    Sounds like a great choice. If you're around a computer during the day, you can still vape while recharging the battery off of a USB port. My favourite clearomizer was the Davide, which is pretty much identical to a PT2 (the Davide uses PT replacement coils). I generally bought 1.8 oHm...

    Unrelated thread, you guys are nice.....please help

    I just gave this build a try, and am testing it out now using Betavapes Papaya (which is really yummy); i'm enjoying the vape a lot. This is a good build, and i'll definitely use it again. One comment about the pix in the original toot post; maybe this is something i'm seeing incorrectly due to...

    Zen atty pro refill

    No, don't need to do this at all with a genny. One of the great things about this type of RBA is how long mesh wicks will last before needing to be redone (I've heard a month, but I haven't been using gennies long enough to know whether this is true). If i'm changing flavours that don't mix...
