    Is my kGo pining for the fjords?

    Have you tried cleaning the connector? 2 months ain't that old, post in their forum. Might just get a replacement. SmokTek

    Isopropyl Alchol for cleaning atty?

    There is nothing added to isopropyl alcohol sold in drugstores to make it unsafe for drinking. It is a synthetically produced alcohol that is unsafe to drink on it's own.

    Introducing the Griffin Rebuildable Atomizer Tank

    Your pics seem off. The size difference is much more pronounced here. Does the Tiamat also have a short/wick positive post like the Hydra?

    I understand that. My point was that with their newest offering it is not an issue.

    Doing something wrong with DiD clone

    The wraps need to touch so that the liquid from the wick is transferred to the coil (as has been mentioned). The wraps being loose enough to slide the wick around is no big deal, the important thing is to not cut through/scrape the oxidation causing a short. You also didn't mention if the air...

    Help with Phoenix V2 RA

    On the original the center terminal is floating, it will move in either direction. Yours has probably just been pushed up, a common problem BTW. It can be pushed back down to where you want it. Take a peek. Look at 5 and 9. If the positive terminal plate (9) has moved up you can...

    Why do my APVs think freshly charged batteries are dead?

    Well that is probably your problem. The positive connectors. Take a peek at this. Those plastic retainers will bump up against the body of the battery, and depending on the size of the nipple (or on flat tops the lack of one) hold it back from making firm, positive contact. In days...

    The new Xtar SP2 has addressed that issue.

    Did I kill my 18650 battery, was it a dud, other?

    Not only "cheapo" chargers, but the better chargers will also charge them. A battery with a tripped protection circuit will read zero volts, but many times as it 'rests' the voltage creeps up enough to reset it. Many of the better chargers can reset the PCM by tickling it a bit. A charger...

    Why do my APVs think freshly charged batteries are dead?

    Are these VV's made with plastic 3AA battery boxes?

    Introducing the Griffin Rebuildable Atomizer Tank

    Mine came from another source. The post marked ignore (I tore mine off) is basically useless for any SS wick. Way too far from the threaded hole and the wire hole is too high. The unthreaded one, marked wick, is also a bit far from the screw, so make sure your first wrap is low and...

    Introducing the Griffin Rebuildable Atomizer Tank

    Why all these folks chose to copy the clumsy, multi-part DID in the first place is beyond me. No. The tanks ends are threaded like a VIVI Nova. And the way the o-rings sit, right up against the fittings I doubt a clear tube could be added. I greased the top o-ring with silicone (the cap and...

    Failtacular (Tank)

    Actually? :) Those Smok duals can take a lot of volts, much more than the same ohm singles. Many folks routinely run them at 5+V. To the OP, something don't makes sense, but running true 3.8V on a Provari is not too much voltage. Something else is wrong.

    How long do your TrustFire 14500's last

    Have you ever checked them right before charging? Usually one will drain faster. You should be swapping their position in the mod also. This will help to age the batteries equally. I'm confused, it sounded like one of the four went bad?

    Uniq Lava v3.0

    I don't think Uniq is the actual manufacturer, it's probably the Young June that was called the LavaTube 1.5. Pbusardo does a review of them.

    Too good to be true supplier?

    You can use PayPal to buy ecig stuff all day long from the companies in countries where it's not restricted. China and the UK are but two examples. Sure looks 'official'. 1200ml of the same juice would drive me nuts. This guy would offer some variety @ 22¢/ml. Boge Dekang

    Burning Cartomisers? Dangerous?-510/Kr808/4081...etc filler type cartos

    Just a dripper, look at it as a high end Phoenix, except it draws air from the bottom as traditional atties always have. I have not tried it, but it looks to be nicely made and thought out.

    Hopefully these are either polypropylene or PMMA (fancy talk for acrylic).
