    Upgrade from pt3...without building

    What is it that you don't like about the PT3. It seems like you have tried the standard tanks and such, so not sure what you want without a rebuildable. You might have luck with something like an IBTanked cartotank if you are looking for more flavor (I personally don't like cartotanks but I...

    Protank Rebuld issues

    I never had any leaking issues with silica, but I've found that I get better flavor with cotton. On the Protanks, I tend to use yarn. I picked up a cone of white Peaches and crème yarn at WalMart for $9 that will probably last me until the end of time, lol. I do tend to boil the yarn, and...

    Vamo hell yea

    I love my Vamo. I have a V3, and when I'm not using a mech, I usually use the Vamo.

    Do you exhale through your nose?

    I definitely exhale through my nose sometimes. But I used to do that when I was smoking one of my Peterson pipes. I always thought it enhanced the flavor of my tobaccos. I also did it with cigarettes at times, but much more with pipes. To me, vaping is more relaxing than smoking cigarettes and...

    Testing Kanger Heads With a Meter & Coil Build Question

    I build mine with a standard coil (wraps not touching) if I am using cotton yarn (like peaches and cream) and a micro coil (wraps touching) if I am using cotton balls. This all depends on your particular wants for a wick, but both styles work well. One thing I would recommend is also re-test...

    First trip to the vape shop

    Welcome to the forums :) What you use, VV or VW, and what you set them at are very personal. You only need to choose one setting, either VV or VW. The Volts or Watts will be automatically adjusted by setting the other. As for where to set them, lol, you will get 1000 different answers on this...

    Good bad or ok?

    In this case, 27 Amps is calculated at nominal voltage for the battery. At the full rated charge for the battery (4.25 Volts), this works out to 30.36 Amps ===> Unsafe, period. Even at a proper full charge of 4.2 Volts, you are at 100% capacity (30.00 Amps). In theory, on a new battery...

    A great day :)

    This may not seem like much for some and may seem big to others, but to me, it is HUGE -- From 2 packs a day to zero -- 3000 cigarettes avoided :D:D:D

    Aqua Tank Clone by Hcigar

    Very nice review. After watching, I don't think it will be my next purchase, but I think I will pick one up in the next couple of months. Question for you, most of the time I prefer not to pull really hard, will it produce good flavor with a relatively light draw, or is it extremely tight to...

    Protank III leaking

    I've had leaking on my PT3 coils. Usually it is one of 3 things for me. 1) damaged or extra o ring on the bottom of the coil. If this is the case, just replace the o ring or take the extra one off 2) not tightening down the coil enough I have found that I really need to tighten the coil to the...

    non smokers taking up vapeing??

    One thing to remember here, decaffeinated coffee is not the same as caffeine free coffee. Decaf Coffee Isn't Caffeine-Free Most decaffeinated coffee does contain caffeine. Does that mean nicotine and caffeine have the same addictive properties, my opinion is no, but I will get bad headaches...

    Kanger Aero Tank cotton rebuild. Can it be done?

    As I understand it, the Aero tank uses the same coil as the PT3. As long as that is the case, then yes, you can rebuild it with cotton. I rebuild my PT3 coils in both single and dual coil. With cotton, I have found it easiest to use Peaches and Cream yarn, particularly if I am building dual...

    How do you handle those people who....

    I've known people who quit cold turkey. I've tried, plus, I tried just about everything else. I haven't had anyone tell me they quit cold turkey and I should too, but I know what I would do. I'd simply tell them my story if they will listen. First, how I tried many other things and how I'm just...

    Too Many Jan Join Dates Asking About Sub Ohm

    The meter I use for coils is one I picked up at Harbor Freight. $20 and works great. I wouldn't have spent that much on it, but I wanted one that I could easily replace batteries on (it takes one 9V). meters don't need to be expensive, they just need to work. I have some pricey equipment I could...

    Too Many Jan Join Dates Asking About Sub Ohm

    Nikkita, I really liked reading this post. I agree with you in most of what you say. I definitely agree that nothing will be perfect. I think me and you are on slightly opposite sides of the line here, but regardless of that, we agree that safety is important. To answer your question about foul...

    Too Many Jan Join Dates Asking About Sub Ohm

    Sub ohm does not necessarily equate to cloud chasing. I have found some juices that I really prefer the flavor of at 30+ watts. This can be done safely. The problem is when people don't understand what makes it safe and what is dangerous. I like to have options, and I like to try different...

    Too Many Jan Join Dates Asking About Sub Ohm

    I totally agree with this. I am currently using a 1.6 ohm single coil on an RDA that produces a ton of flavor and very decent vapor/throat hit. Plus, I'm using it on a Vamo V3. :vapor: There are times I use different builds and everyone has to choose what build (or equipment) they want to use at...
