    So what's the lowdown on mech mods?

    Or just a good eye, a caliper, micrometer and a lathe. I have been machining parts for radio controlled airplanes and helicopters for over 25 years and have never used a CAD program or a CNC machine.

    Suggestions needed for first rebuildable

    If your truly going to chase clouds, make fog, be a side show then 20+ watts and plain 100% VG in a dual coil dripper. Massive clouds, minimal expense. Why waste expensive flavored, nic, blended juice just to turn it into steam and impress your friends?? My massive cloud machine - Igo-W with...

    Credit Card Company Refused To Process Transaction

    Capitol One (my card company) refused a charge on the 1st to Luxor Vapes. According to customer service it's because of the name and they are refusing charges for "illicit/illegal paraphernalia" If this becomes the "standard" for card processing centers then this will be a huge problem since...

    iclear30s looks like a carto system

    Just a quick update to my 30S, Just a couple days ago I pulled the atomizer out and tossed it because I had filled it one time with a very VERY strong "sour watermelon" juice. No matter how many times I tried cleaning it with everything from straight PG to Vodka it still tasted like "sour...

    Nitecore Intellicharger i2: broken or am I being paranoid?

    I have the i4 and have noticed the same noise but it has to be very quiet. Electronics by the nature of their design make noise and most likely what your hearing in the frequency of the chip which is taking 110v AC current and converting it to 4.2v DC current. A lot of VV/VW mods make these same...

    Tank Suggestions?

    My exact same thoughts, the tank is just the vessel holding the juice and the carto itself is the workhorse so I'm missing something as well.

    RBA....is it worth it?

    I'm truly sorry if I offended someone with that comment, it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek humor and certainly not a slam on Reo users.

    Is it safe to mix different e-liquids?

    From a scientific standpoint, I see nothing in any e-juice that could possibly react with anything in another e-juice. Now from a flavor standpoint, well sometimes things when mixed can wind up tasting nothing like the original separate ingredients.

    Help. Cotton with rsst

    On the first picture it looks like you have cotton through the coil but on the second it doesn't. How are you keeping the entire coil wet without the cotton through it??

    Help. Cotton with rsst

    No offense but if you can get a piece of Kanthal hooked up to a Lithium battery hot enough to free +6 Cr then the bigger problem is going to be the magnesium burns you get from the battery long before anything you get from the stainless. It takes temperatures well beyond anything we see in an...

    RBA....is it worth it?

    Well I really want to post on this thread but the little Umpa Lumpa Troll got on here before me, gonna do it anyway. Personally I started off like most everyone, a semi disposable Ego and Clearo. My first rebuildable was actually an Octopus dripper that my local B&M gave me and honestly I'm...

    Diving into rebuildables ... HELP !

    That is the one thing most everyone figures out when they start chasing those clouds, less flavor and more vapor. But it's part of the evolutionary experience in vaping. Some get to big clouds and stop and others get to big clouds, have fun with it for a few days and go on to find there's more...

    New Medical Device to replace hypodermic needles - Vaping

    As others have already pointed out, it's called a Nebulizer and my 16 year old who has asthma has used one since before his 1st birthday. Yes, a totally different way of converting liquid to vapor but using vapor to deliver medication is not a new idea. Kudo's though if it does work out because...

AND, when GN finally finds his ever so elusive vape and rids this forum of all the vendor employees stealing his...

    New Memeber and New Analog Free Vapor, Itaste 134 Question

    I don't believe the 134 will go below .80 (or at least mine won't) - real world talking - see below .80 is as low as I have taken mine, anything below that it doesn't fire. FWIW, I no longer use it for anything below 1.8 anyway, I have collected a dozen or more mechanicals in the past couple...

    Diving into rebuildables ... HELP !

    I fell asleep and missed a lot of this thread but yes you can just wick with cotton balls from your bathroom as long as they are 100% cotton and don't contain any filler product. Personally I use cotton balls right out of the bag from Wal-Mart, no boiling or anything but that is just me. Many...
