    Update/Sharing Time!

    That's the way it should be. You got good genes. It was rather important that our early ancestors be able to tune out constant stimuli. Sensory adaption is the term

    OK Battery time.

    I would call them junk. And the mAh will likely be half of that 3600 (if that). Here's some of the best Li-Ions you can get, bar none. 2pcs XTAR 18700 18650 2600mAh Lithium Battery. Fenix | eBay That's from a USA shipper, you could save a few $ from the China shippers. They are...

    Request review: SVC Storm RAT

    Well this may be of some help. The poster is a Genesis builder. Best to ignore the posts after his guide as there ain't many modders on that forum. DID Copy-Genisis Atomizer Tutorial He may be overstating a bit, but even so.

    Sanitation

    That is an interesting question. Many talk of USP labeling, but once anything is poured off into smaller bottles, it can no longer be labelled USP. Of course we all feel safe when we buy from USA vendors.

    Ego Joye Mod with 18650

    It would be nice if that vague, general statement were true, unfortunately it's not.

    Request review: SVC Storm RAT

    Paying a few $ more from a trusted and respected vendor can offer many dividends. The coops can often take a long time and in the case of problems you are usually SOL. And as is usually the case early adopters tend to pay more. I find nothing wrong with that. I didn't post the DV link cuz...

    Request review: SVC Storm RAT

    That price seems a bit high, they will be popping up soon at <$30. They are China DID copies. Most folks seem to like them, Mamu for one, they are very similar to the expensive DID. Definitely a great way to see if the fiddling required to get Genesis atty's working right is for you. I'm...

    Leaking and Pooling on eGo 2.4ml CC CE4 Clearomizer/Stardust

    Indulgence V2 and V3 owners beware!!!!!!!

    No they are not. The AW IMRs are made in China and most definitely are not Panasonics.

    Pila Charger: Independent Charging?

    I'd much rather have the cells come off a little hot than undercharged like that. Although 4-4.1V sounds OK, it's actually about 15% short of a full charge. That's not safe, that's poor performance.

    Pila Charger: Independent Charging?

    Even the inexpensive TrustFire TR-001 has independent channels. I've been abusing mine for nearly 3 years. I've also pulled it off my desk more than a few times. Best $12 I've spent for vaping stuff.

    IMR vs. Protected Li-ion

    Not really a "3.7V regulated", single cell PV will have to be boosted. Boosters put a higher demand on cells, the 10-15% efficiency loss for one, chews up some current. You could never use a standard 14650 for more than a few minutes in a ProVari, LT or any of the one cell China PVs like the...

    Fake AW 18650...?

    What device are you using them in? Have you ever checked the voltage of your cell at the point it stops and needs re-charging? Having more mAh if it's below the cut-off is useless. The original AW IMR1600s appear to be true IMRs with over 200+% more discharge capability...

    Fake AW 18650...?

    The shame is it's kinda hard to actually contact the actual re-wrapper, AW, for confirmation. Seems the only place would be at the CandlePower forums which function as his home office and sales office. That said from a review from 6-7-2012. This may be his email. awwan01@yahoo.com

    Smok Telescope with CGR18650 WONT FIT!

    When they were discussing making safer PVs this sort of problem was brought up. There were talks of using various liners (Mylar comes to mind) to avoid this. There have been a few China PVs that had similar problems, sometimes at the threads where the battery was installed. Feel around with...

    EGO threading

    Actually Joye has always supplied 500mA AC adaptors, and FWIW it will also work quite well with the so called eGo pass-through (which it isn't), which Joye lists as an eGo USB Battery.

    Charger help

    You sure the output of the charger is that low? FWIW MadVapes sells a mini 350mAh ego. Black eGo Battery, 350mAh

    Where are my vaping stickers?

    I like the shiny, thick business cards. Good for mixing up a batch of epoxy.

    How about a review of reveiwers

    There is also BasilRay, he does a good, no nonsense job and seems to understand things much better than many of the new breed. And he also has all of his teeth. His fashion sense is a bit lacking though. :) BTW watching pbusardo try to wrap a coil is cringe-worthy.
