    Rayon in place of cotton?

    Good research find. Rayon is a decent fabric for dress-casual shirts (I think I've got a couple Armani ones, though it's been awhile since I've been to that part of my clothes closet ;)). After reading the Wikipedia blurb, I'm not sure i'd want to use rayon for vaping. -- Glenn

    Rayon in place of cotton?

    How are you finding hemp for wicking? I've seen hemp twine, and am tempted to try it out. -- Glenn

    AW Battery Problems from Canadian Vendor

    I know which 2 vendors i bought AW 18490s, but i can't remember which one sent me the black sticker ones and which one sent me the silver sticker (non-holographic) ones that are giving me grief. I can be a space cadet in the morning, and forget to bring fresh batteries when i'm heading out...

    AW Battery Problems from Canadian Vendor

    Sounds like you've got the same situation as me, an alleged AW with a silver sticker (non-holographic) that isn't working well. Unlike me, you know where yours came from, and can go back to the vendor. It's possible that the vendor unknowingly bought fake AWs. Counterfeit batteries are a...

    AW Battery Problems from Canadian Vendor

    Grrrrrr. I'll have to figure out where I got them from. I bought AWs from two different vendors, have to figure out which was which. -- Glenn

    AW Battery Problems from Canadian Vendor

    I've bought several 18490 AW batteries from a couple Canadian vendors, and it looks like there's a problem with some of them: they're not holding a charge. If I fully charge them up and then carry them around in a battery case for half a day, they'll be down to 3.4 - 3.5 volts by the time I try...

    This can't be good

    Apples? Bic pens? I guess I didn't learn as much as I thought I did at my old school, lol. -- Glenn

    Best place to get MVP in Ontario

    There's a long thread in the ECF/Canada subforum about Jughead's, where you can pick up some suggestions. I like JH's JokeSmoke Classic, which is a neutral-tasting 'tobacco' flavor. -- Glenn

    RSST Vs Kayfun: Difference?

    The Kayfun is pretty easy when it comes to coils build, and will give great results. I've been using my KFL+ pretty regularly lately, even though Genesis-style RBAs are my favorite topper. The RSST is fairly simple in terms of learning how to do a genny build, though there still is a learning...

    unsuccesful quest for flavours

    Dekang USA Mix is the first e-liquid I vaped, and for two weeks I thought it was the bomb, until I tried another brand. I'll never buy another Dekang anything. My favourite e-liquids are neutral-tasting 'tobacco' flavors; my ADV is a flavor produced and sold locally (Paradise Vapes Muskoka...

    Greetings, welcome to the forum. You're talking about your 'Avatar' (the vegetarian thing, which I found funny btw)? You can also add a sig file for the bottom of your posts, but I think you have to wait until you have a certain number of posts before you can do this. -- Glenn

    VV vs Mechanical

    You could always look at getting a Kick for your mech mods, which will add VV capability plus some of the same protections found in regulated mods. -- Glenn

    mech mod on-the-go safety

    If you're talking about your mech mod in general, the main thing I've found is to make sure to use the fire button locking ring. Being lazy with it almost put my mech into meltdown a couple times, so I use it by reflex now. Many vape shops sell plastic battery cases, which are very handy...

    Sigelie zmax v5 or innokin svd.... Or do i just save and wait for a provari

    Greetings and welcome to the forum. It's not a bad idea to think about getting the Innokin APV now, and saving for a high end mod down the road. Always good to have backups, and any mod can be lost or stolen. I've got a Vamo (plus some mech mods), which comes in handy occasionally. FWIW, I...

    Vamo V5 Mean vs RMS does PWM just suck?

    Greetings, welcome to the forum. As mentioned, the battery time you're getting on your Vamo depends on which battery you're using, and mAh rating isn't necessarily a reliable indicator; best bet is to get a solid brand. There are some brand recommendations on Batitude's Blog which should give...

    Mesh nooby questions

    If you take Buzz K's advice about starting your mesh wick builds on a genny, the Smoktech RSST is a really good choice, preferably the Pyrex version. It's got an insulated wick hole plus plenty of real estate between the wick hole and center post, so it's almost hard to get a build wrong...

    Mesh nooby questions

    Is that the new Esta (or Estia) RBA? Looks killer (or Killa :laugh:) with that mesh wick build. How does it vape? -- Glenn

    Provari 2.5? 180 bucks???

    Can't understand why some people automatically assume that ProVari owners are being condescending or smug when they (we) say we're satisfied with our choice of APV. The $3,000 Otto Carter-engraved Steam Punk mod sold by Vaperev, now that's a status symbol. My ProVari is simply a...
