    If you want something to charge your phone, there's devices that you load up with 18650's that will charge other devices including phones and Egos (Fasttech have them). Personally I don't see that the MVP being able to do it as a big plus. Maybe, in an absolute emergency it would be useful...

    I guess people are busy this week. Weekend coming up! It's just after 6AM on Saturday morning here. I think the pressure of doing the "catch-up" might be too much sometimes. By the time the catch-up is done there's no time to write anything. In these cases people should just read the...

    Voltage/Wattage - does it truly matter?

    As with a lot of things a little bit technical, the terminology can be a bit confusing at times. "Variable Voltage" means that it doesn't actually change from what we set it to. It's variable in as much as the user can change the setting after which the device will try to maintain that...

    Yes, and you could also make up a special set of leads, with the short banana plugs on one end and the 510 connector on the other. This will help the accuracy of the readings by eliminating the tricky procedure of holding the probes on two different poles (one threaded, the other a center pin)...

    Voltage/Wattage - does it truly matter?

    If you want to think of it that way, yes. All you need to know is "about 6.5 watts for bottom coil devices" and "about 8 watts for everything else". Of course personal preferences and differences in flavourings may require a slight tweak to these rules, but it doesn't require the user to know...

    I keep thinking I need to make one of these: Ohm Meter | For Low Resistence measurement | Electronics Project Our multimeters are useful, they're just not particularly accurate below 10 ohms.

    Voltage/Wattage - does it truly matter?

    Not really. Watt's is a measure of the power being put through the coil, in other words, it's the heat that's being generated. Generally we want the same amount of heat for a given device with a given e-liquid in it. Say you have two Protanks, and you like to run them at 6 Watts (a realistic...

    Is the Kanger Protank worth it?

    Yes, absolutely worth it. The Protank 2 is out now as well.

    Problem with my battery or cartomizer?

    Yes, try somewhere else. There's also a lot more stuff available online if you can afford to wait for postage.

    I gotta stay away from...

    Yes, and that's from somebody who doesn't like fruit or desert vapes. The banana has already started to steep a little, but the bottle is nearly gone so I don't think it will have a chance to steep much more now. I ran out of Lucky Strike a few days ago so I shall probably make a few larger...

    Vaping trivia item #609 Vanilla icecream makes my coffee vape and Myrany's Banana Cream Pie taste even better. Trivia item #610 TFA Ripe Banana give you sneezles.

    The only good thing is if you are testing flavours, the smaller drip capacity means that you can cycle the tests through faster and you will get less carry-over of flavour from one test to the next. I'm going to leave my phoenix with the series dual coil on it for now since it is working really...

    Yeah, that does seem to be all pointy bits and sharp edges. I'm not sure how much 'O' rings are going to help in this case. The more you use it the less problems you will have. Trust me, I'm a guitar player. ;-) That is not my favourite Phoenix. I just bought a Tower which is very similar...

    Problem with my battery or cartomizer?

    It sounds exactly like a short circuit in the carto. If you tighten it too much on the battery you push the pin in, giving a little more slack to the lead wires and allowing them to short. It does happen occasionally, but to four of them? It's a common mistake to tighten things all the way...

    Not ANTZ, one of my countrymen. He should have gone to AVF (Australian Vaper's Forum) instead of here. Yes the question usually turns into a bun fight over there as well. The people asking these questions are the country's next generation of smokers and are the minor percentage that look up...
