    Strange situation with Ego battery ...

    Oh, I missed that will all the screwing and unscrewing :-) It could be a short circuit. If you over tighten and there's a bit of extra wire at the center pin, squashing the grommet causes it to stick out further and short on the negative thread connection. It can be hard to diagnose because...

    Strange situation with Ego battery ...

    Be careful how tight you screw things on. You should do them up until they just make contact. Screwing them right down, especially on ego type batteries, can push the center pin on the ego in. It also squashes the center pin in on the clearo, so you get weird things happening like some...

    coming out of lurkdom

    If you're talking about the quality and amount of vapour, the main variable that will mess you up is temperature. All devices vary depending on what temperature they are at, but it can be very noticeable with BCC devices like the Protanks. If you get a thin vape first thing in the morning when...

    No luck with BCC tanks

    6.5 to 7 watts may be a tad high depending on the juice. Have a look at this blog and see if there's anything in there that can help you: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/fabricator4/5045-bottom-coil-clearomizers.html

    Oo oooooooo that smell

    Gotta take the good with the bad. You'll also be able to smell flowers again, and food will start tasting better as well. Smell and taste plug straight into the memory centers in the brain, so don't be too surprised if some foods start bringing back childhood memories you didn't know you'd...

    I gotta stay away from...

    Yes, still saying "thank goodness for vaping". Fergus the Westie loves children and was very interested in all the trick-or-treaters that came around. At one stage he made a break for it and I'm sure would have been in for a bit of trick-or-treat action himself. Most sought after treat: Dried...

    My first 3 weeks vaping

    Congratulations on giving up the smokes. If you can make a hobby out of cigars and pipes you've found your new home. Vaping is *way* more interesting than anything with tobacco in it, and you'll find it smells a lot better too. So you think you're nearly there? But you haven't looked at box...

    Brand New Protank II Rusting

    No, not really. The Phosphoric acid in the coke will just reduce the oxide and allow it to be removed easier. If it is rust, that is. It's still not making sense because Kanthal is the only thing in there that has any iron in it.

    Terrible kit experience

    It's not difficult, just remove the rubber cap, hold the head in a clean cloth and snap the top chimney part off the bottom part where the wicks are. Use tweazers to separate the the four flavour wicks and pop them back in there. The wicks need to be fluffed up enough to seal any gaps that...

    Terrible kit experience

    Then the head is faulty. Just swap the head head out and it should be fine. If you want to pull the faulty head apart and re-arrange the flavour wicks it will probably fix the problem. There should be four little flavour wicks in there. Make sure you have spares for the heads. I...

    Provari...why do people get uptight?

    That's because it's peanut butter jelly time!

    Brand New Protank II Rusting

    Even if it were rust marks from corroding Kanthal it is not "trashed". Iron oxide is not toxic or harmful in any way. (Your red blood cells are largely iron oxide) Try soaking it in Coca Cola and scrubbing it with your toothbrush again - that should remove any rust marks. ETA: The only way I...

    Which are the best vaporizers on the market?

    The Provari is the one most likely to withstand being dropped on the floor. You should also check out the Innokin SVD, the Innokin 134, and the Seigelei Zmax. There's also a whole range of mechanicals which are fairly bullet proof, and bottom feeding box mods like the Reo. If you want a tube...

    Brand New Protank II Rusting

    Don't know, there's nothing there that should be rusting.

    Provari...why do people get uptight?

    A known issue - they've made the timing on the button presses quite tight, and there may be some issues with the electronics going into a sleep mode. It's actually easier to turn it off than it is to turn it on. I just use 6 presses to turn on. The misfires would be annoying if you get them...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    Asshats. Know any solicitors? Tell them you are going to hold them responsible now if you get any smoking related diseases. Make sure you put the confiscating official's name on the document as well. Plenty of stupid laws don't get enforced because they are... stupid. Sounds like Canada's...

    Tpa flavor help

    Yes, your base will get progressively weaker. This is just testing, to give you the rough idea of what the flavours are going to do. You just have to keep in mind roughly where you are at. Once you've got a better idea, start another drop test, so say you are doing a 20 drop test and want to...

    Provari...why do people get uptight?

    It does happen though, and is the reason for a common rant, it seems ;-) Just this week I saw a suggestion that a newcomer get a Reo. Unfortunately I lacked the energy at the time to reply as I was in burnout mode and that pushed me over the edge. If the suggestion had been to get a Provari...

    Yep, and 73.5% of statistics are made up. :lol: [Edit/delete] as for the rest, never mind it was already dealt with...
