    The T Max uses the same controls as the Z Max. It's VV/VW and starts your car on cold mornings. :D

    RE: T Max box mod. It's my understanding they were introduced late last year and used a 16340 battery. Sigelei went back to the drawing board and devoped a 18650 version, pics of which showed one battery cover in the bottom. Now I've seen pics showing two battery covers and it's said to be able...

    I upgraded early on from an Apollo Extreme (cigalike) to Apollo's ego T tank version. I remember that taste from the first attempt to use them. I either got flooding or dry hits. I sent the whole thing back and invested in the 3.7v Gripper and some xxxl cartomizers. I still use these for stealth...

    Hi Papa and Barefoot....Welcome to our little corner of the vaping world. I was a 50 yr. smoker annd I am still amazed at how readily I switched to vaping. I no longer worry (almost daily) about the health dangers of cigarettes and, like NGIB, don't know what the future holds. I used to be a...

    I am happy to report receipt of a <$50 eVic control head via a recent coop. It was $40 and some change. I am much happier with this PV than I was with the VAMO and with the ego t/c 2 mods as backups, I feel vapishly content. It also solves my quandry of the 1.8 and 2.4 ohm T3 coils that got all...

    Here's a pretty good deal on a 12 volt jump starter with a USB port. This can be used to charge batteries during a power outage with a car adapter cable. Peak 600 Amp Jump Starter with USB/12V DC Power Station - Mills Fleet Farm

    NGIB...congrats on your year (I was 1 on 3/25). I'd like to say I've stopped buying so many toys since you haven't been around but that's not the case. The rest of these wonderful folks stepped up and subbed for you just fine. I no longer say "I'm good for now" because I think that causes a new...

    Natasha...try it without the end cap(e). It may be holding the contact away from the battery post.

    Ain't THAT the truth. I just found a pair of reading glasses that I probably had in my lap and when I got up I kicked them under the chair. I still have a pair missing...they'll show up some day when they get hungry or want a bath. I may very well start using a lanyard for those absent minded...

    I'm looking foward to the T-box too but I'm on the fence about the current coop. I wish some veteran would come foward to run it so we could get best prices. Oh well, it's all good. Got an eVic control head coming for $41 so I can wait if necessary. I am soooooo tempted to try the ProTank...

    Molli...sounds like you're having fun now. I haven't had by iTaste above 4 volts but I'm using a 1.8 ohm T-3 that meters @ 2.2 ohms. Generally speaking, the higher the ohm rating of the coil, the higher the voltage it takes to get satisfactory results.

    Boy, an e-cig would have been great in Viet Nam. To smoke after dark, we had to cover ourselves with a poncho. No big deal except the temp and humidity were both 150 or so and mosquitos the size of turkeys would get in there with you. Please post contact info for the group sending stuff to our...

    I keep forgetting to order one of these. Your post and a 10% d/c at CCV (10offapril) prompted my order. http://www.crystalclearvaping.com/Nitecore-I2-Intelli-charger_p_195.html

    Putting away groceries that you'll just get out again is kinda like making the bed....except for fridge and freezer. Vapemail has a capital "V". That gives it priority, right?? Coffee and Vaping for me, then to the daughter's for ham and scalloped taters and upside down peach cake.

    SEPARATED?? I thought cows had 4 teats for this...one for cream, one for whole milk, one for 2% and one for non-fat.

    Perfect example....I could not be happier than I am with the T-3 clearos.....except.....tx keeps praising the ProTank. Maybe I am missing something (Yeah, like self control). Oh well, at least I don't need a Zippo or Bic.

    YOU'VE GOT VAPEMAIL!! I rec'd my Innokin iTaste MPV kit today and consider it my one yr. no cigs reward and a belly button birthday gift to myself. I quit smoking sometime between my birthday (16th) and the end of March and didn't really make note of the date because I wasn't sure I was done...

    big....I sanded an ego T2 mod 18650 tube because it was too slippery. It is, however, aluminum. 220 grit on a random orbit sander did a nice job. I'm going to do the 18350 tube also if I can ever remember to do it :huh:
