    Confused with me ego

    Because the ego is fixed voltage, probably. You need to find out what that voltage is, and just set to the twist to that or very close to it. The tendancy with VV is to turn it up higher to get more vapour, however this can give muted flavour, or even introduce off flavours. When you first...

    Need some advice on funky taste with replaced coil...

    I usually boil new heads before I use them to make sure there's no residue from manufacturing on them. Rubbery or machine oil tastes are sometimes due to this. Pop them into boiling water for a couple of minutes to clean. This works for cleans between tanks also, though you should leave them...

    Send them a Paypal invoice for the outstanding amount. You will lose a minor percentage to the Paypal transaction but at least you will be able to buy from somewhere else that does Paypal.

    I gotta stay away from...

    Aaaargh! Hong Kong post have finally cleared an entire weeks worth of scan backlog by the simple expedient of sending all of our FT orders back to Fasttech. I guess they finally figured out that there's no way they can actually scan *all* of the packages. Some people are saying FT had it...

    Noob Incoming

    Welcome to ECF. 35 year rollie smoker here, 8 months cigarette free. Before you have that rollie at night, vape for five minutes instead and then decide whether you need that one rollie or not. Eventually you will just forget about it. For me the hard one was the first in the morning. I...

    Switching Friends to Vaping

    Welcome to ECF. You can only show people the possibilities, they have to be ready to make the switch themselves. I saw my first cigalike two years before I started vaping. One day the light went on and I decided to investigate whether or not it would be a good alternative for me. Preaching...

    Poll on vaping in the workplace

    I'm in retail ATM so vaping in front of people would not be acceptable. Basically, I stay under the radar and sneak a stealth vape when no-one is looking. I never raised the issue with management and as far as I know there are no other vapers on the floor. I did not and will not make an issue...

    Well done on getting through the surgery! I'm sure you'll be feeling better soon! I'm sure Lord Pancake would have mentioned it if you had sleep apnea, unless he was just being gallant. Being under anesthetic can make these things worse, which is why they will usually intubate for surgery...

    Funny how cats can just move in and find their place. I was looking at the Kobo Glo as a cheap e-reader. What don't you like about it?

    Locating the C-rating of my batteries

    All of the IMR batteries are *relatively* safe. This technology can still fail, but does so at much lower temperature, with no flame, and with much less toxic output. As long as there are vent holes in the mod tube to allow expanding gasses to escape it is safe. I wouldn't like to be around...

    Locating the C-rating of my batteries

    You could be right. Investigations seem to indicate that Panasonic is investing heavily in the Hybrid technologies. I always run into a brick wall when trying to investigate IMR technologies from Panasonic. Just another myth, maybe? I know I've been over the data available from Panasonic...

    Locating the C-rating of my batteries

    I think these are the usual Panasonic cells, 10C. I tend to also think that the 10A rating is a typo or someone not understanding the spec. These cells do not actually have a very good discharge curve at over 5A. The voltage drops quite quickly and the efficiency suffers. They still have...

    Locating the C-rating of my batteries

    10C at 2000 mAh is 20 amps, not 10?

    Locating the C-rating of my batteries

    As DKP said, 10C. You have the correct batteries. You do have to look up the specifications for the battery you are using since it is never printed on the battery cover, and preferably this should be from the manufacturer. This can lead to an error you will see often from people vaping sub...

    Weird issue with Vamo and BCCs in VW mode

    6 watts is more correct for a BCC. For the reasons, have a look here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/fabricator4/5045-bottom-coil-clearomizers.html Make quite sure you are in RMS mode on the Vamo. AVG mode will burn your coils, by as much as an extra volt in some cases. If...

    RY E-Liquids

    It stands for Ruyan recipe 4. Ruyan is phonetically chinese for "like smoking" and is the name of the first e-cig company. Many people including Janty claim to be the inventors of RY4. Typically, it's a tobacco flavour with additions of caramel and vanilla, among other things. ETA, and yes...

    New guy here

    Congrats for no longer incinerating tobacco OR your lungs. Four months is pretty good, but it keeps on getting better.

    Working. This has it's good points, and it's bad points. Good that I'm productive and earning, bad that I'm sometimes too tired to bother logging in.

    New guy off the deep end quick!

    When the device is cold it can stand a bit more power without burning, so first thing might be OK. 1.7 ohms is way low on an unregulated device. It will be running 8 watts only once the battery drops down to 3.7 volts. Try pulsing the button to avoid burning the coils. I suspect when you...

    Still no taste - driving me mad

    OK, burning sensation on the exhale does not sound right. You may have a sensitivity to PG. Try more juices with very high VG or even all VG juices and see if it helps.
