    This does get "cheaper" right?

    Yes anyone can do it. Just put all of your purchases into a spreadsheet with monthly totals, then insert a chart of the data. Perfect for defeating spousal disapproval at the amount you are spending. I've got to find out how much the new taxes added to tobacco this year, I'm sure it's more...

    Doubts over the safety of NET E-liquids

    Dr Farsalinos' latest study again gives the green light on the safety of vaping as expected, however it tested a range of different flavours this time. One of these was a tobacco extract from House of Liquid (El Toro cigarello) that was found to be Cytotoxic. It's early days yet by it might...

    Helloo Again Just Would Like to Know If This a Good Starter Kit

    Yes. Some people have trouble reading the TV guide. It's also a fact that you are much more likely to hear about the bad experiences, while those that have a good experience don't feel they have to tell everyone about it. The only times I've had trouble with deliveries was because I did not...

    Helloo Again Just Would Like to Know If This a Good Starter Kit

    I know somebody who bought one because that was what the guy down the market was selling. Vapour production was pretty disappointing once it was in use and the battery voltage dropped off. I didn't have my multimeter with me, but it's possible that it's not actually able to deliver 4.2 volts...

    vaping headache

    Yes, incurable is the word I would use. Paracetamol and Ibuprofen won't even touch it; the only cure is to feed the caffeine monster.

    imr high drain 18650 1500 mah 20 amp continues 60 bust ...draining too quickly?

    Ohms per inch for 30g Kanthal is around 0.7 ohms. I can't see how you'd get an inch of Kanthal with only four wraps in a standard RDA, unless it's a rather big coil. To get a 1.5 ohm coil with 30g Kanthal you'd need over two inches of wire. If you were wrapping on s/s mesh all bets are off...

    vaping headache

    Just a thought, are you a coffee drinker? When we stop smoking and start vaping sometimes we change our daily rituals, or miss things. Sometimes people don't have the morning coffee because they are concentrating on vaping, or replace coffee with water because they are worried about...

    This does get "cheaper" right?

    If I can avoid spending anything more this month, it seems that I have just broken even, in seven months. The future is looking brighter. The vape expenditure includes *all* expenses, including freight/postage. I do have enough DIY and rebuildable supplies to last me quite some time.

    New to vaping. Want to upgrade.... but what to?

    Also check out the iTaste VV V3. VV and VW in a fairly portable form factor and low cost. I have one on the way and it will probably replace one of my VV Ego twists for out and about. I use a Vamo when I'm home, usually. It is also VV and VW. The Provari is a piece of precision engineering...

    Welp, I've become a vaper.

    30 puffs from a 600 (650?) mAh ego is way under what it should be doing. It's either well down on capacity or it is not charging correctly. A normal vaper (if there is such an animal) should get at least 5 or 6 hours moderate vaping out of that battery. Something is broken! (The rule of...

    Comment by 'fabricator4' in 'Bottom Coil Clearomizers'

    Nicotine is generally not considered to thicken a juice by any appreciable amount, even in relatively high and unvapable amounts it doesn't seem to have much affect. By far the most important factors are the percentage of VG and the temperature. Regarding temperature, I live a the sub tropics...

    Hello all, enthusiastic (possibly overenthusiastic) noob here with questions.

    It's looks like the thread is 808 or something very similar. Be careful as there are a few different sizes and thread pitches that look very similar to this. Jomotech don't seem to specify what it is on the specifications. The battery capacity appears to be 360mAh and at 11mm diameter is a...

    Halo Triton Starter Pack: Why 2 sets?

    Something I didn't know about the Halo Triton, but just saw someone complaining about - they are not 510 threaded. An "Ego" battery has 510 threads and Ego threads on the outside. It will take any ego or 510 threaded devices, which covers the majority of devices out there. The Triton has...

    Kangertech Protank

    Yes, it's pretty hard to go back to cartos or top coil devices once that vapour has you hooked. Welcome to the Kanger Klub. :vapor:

    eFest Battery problem..

    It sounds like you possibly discharged them too far, which is normally only possible on a mechanical. Check the batteries with a multimeter and see what voltage they are at. If using them on a mechanical you really must keep track of the voltage and preferably not let them drop below 3.2v. I...

    Halo Triton Starter Pack: Why 2 sets?

    As already said, you need something to vape while a battery is on charge. The 400mAh batteries will probably last about 4 hours for a moderate vaper, and will probably charge in less than an hour. The 650mAh batteries will last about 6-7 hours, and will take slightly over an hour to charge...

    The Protank is my go-to device. Great flavour and great vapour too. What are you putting it on?

    Gravity sensing system - you press the button and shake it to enter the menu system. What could possibly go wrong with that? :blink: The photos are of it in 18350 mode to make it look shorter. If you look at the dismantled version you'll see that the 18650 battery tube is much longer than the...
