    Glad to hear it's pretty good. Mine didn't show up today, but that's not surprising considering the distance.

    Riva suggestions

    Since you guys are making the Riva yourself, I was wondering if you could add a couple features to the next batch - USB charging/passthrough and true 3.7V operation. Adding a PCB with a mini-USB connector and a charging circuit would only add a couple mm to device, but it would give it a lot...

    901 attys - DSE vs SLB

    I see madvapes has both DSE and SLB attys in stock. I'm curious if anyone has tried them both and can point out the differences between them.

    Becoming an Unintentional Pitchman in Public

    Yep, and I even made an intro-to-vaping website to send people to that is easier for a total novice than just sending them to a forum. Good-ecig.info I even made up cards to hand out when I am inevitably asked what it is that I'm "smoking". The PDF for the cards is at the very bottom of the page.

    5V RIT (Regulator In a Tube)

    I can think of two problems with using a carto. I'm told there is a short metal tube that extends partway up the carto. That will prevent you from pushing the regulator down very far, and and would make it really tough to solder the Vin wire. The other problem is that I think the connector is...

    Long Time no Vape - Mod time. Help!

    Anything with a 14500 or 16340 battery will give you about 8 hours on a charge. Since you're used to 510 attys, my first suggestion would be the mini-Vapestack from Madvapes. Unfortunately they're out of stock until next week. My next suggestion would be the VYPR-510 from Vaprlife. To be...

    Average Lifespan of your Cartomizers ?

    I have a very tiny flathead screwdriver that I use to open up the hole through the middle. Sometimes it works, but about half the time they keep closing up. It's a pain to have to keep doing it, and I have so many cartos that it's easier to just toss the problematic ones. As for labeling, I...

    Corey Feldman (the Goonies/Lost Boys) Promotes E-Cigarette

    I think it's really cool that he's willing to step up and promote ecigs as a safer alternative. I'm not sure I agree about them being more environmentally friendly (Li-ion battery production and disposal is anything but), but at this point, we need all the help we can get. Thanks for posting...

    Pay it forward - USA - please read 1st post for rules and guidelines

    Jules was already offering quite a bit, so I figured it would take a big addition to get things moving again. Besides, I got that bottle of vapornine vanilla on clearance for only $5 :) And since things are rolling right along again, I'd say it was worth it.

    $5.85 30 ml juice !!!! Today Only !!

    Mine shipped today too. I'm on the east coast and this stuff is coming from CA so I'll probably be the last to get mine (except maybe LGD). Be sure to let me know how it is.

    Pay it forward - USA - please read 1st post for rules and guidelines

    I feel stupid for adding stuff all the time just because I don't like to see the thread stalled. I'll run out of stuff to offer at this rate.

    It's a shame too. I'd have jumped on that 801 stuff :)

    Pay it forward - USA - please read 1st post for rules and guidelines

    This has been stalled for almost 12 hours. Unacceptable! Current offer by Jules: I will add to that: 30ml Vapornine vanilla 18mg PG (unopened) 5ml Rath Waffle 24MG VG That's a total of over 50ml of juice, 10ml unflavored, and 3 cartos. Somebody has to need that.

    Frustrated...

    Go over to the PIF group and we can probably help you out with the e-cig stuff. People will occasionally offer up batteries, PTs, etc. There's a link in my sig.

    Average Lifespan of your Cartomizers ?

    I put 10-15 days, but it's just an estimate. Though I use cartos almost exclusively, I have so many of them that it's kinda hard for me to judge. Due to trades, PIF and buying lots for cheap in the classifieds forum, I have 60-70 cartos that I swap out frequently. In the couple months I've...

    5V RIT (Regulator In a Tube)

    With a dumb heat load, caps aren't necessary. A nichrome coil doesn't care if the output is noisy. I get a solid 4.91V under load even with 30sec+ bursts. I doubt I'll have any longevity issues with the regulator being so far overspecced, but I'll be sure to post if there's any problems.

    5V RIT (Regulator In a Tube)

    You could give it a shot, but 1.5A is a little on the low side. A 3ohm atty/carto will pull 1.66A, and anything with a lower resistance would obviously pull more. And don't forget that any voltage above 5V is converted to heat, so you have to figure out a way to conduct that to the outside.
