    Did Clone Tutorial (genesis style)

    I rigged up Mister-E's Spin-E Coil today (coil not wrapped around wick). I used 30 AWG kanthal very small coil wraps came out 1.9ohms. Wick material was cotton batting. I have to say this setup is the cleanest flavor I have gotten so far. I ran the wick in the wick hole and wrapped around...

    The "Spin E" coil sure is coil E & wind E

    If you don't like the flavor of cotton you're burning it. Even lightly singed cotton is a horrid taste, but when done right taste better than anything else I've tried. Also all different types of cotton have completely different properties and different coil preferences for optimumal results...

    Vivi Nova Rebuild tutorial

    That's the difference between a DIY person and a non DIY person. You pay 7 bucks for 5 atomizer heads, the cost for rebuilding 5 heads cost me about 15 cents and the taste/flavor is way better and supposedly healthier. If you are someone who hates DIY projects then you can happily pay 46 times...

    Wizard Labs- Your Favorite Flavors

    Yeah higher mg mixes will keep you awake as it is a stimulant. A lot of guys including myself try to mix lower mg mixes specifically for late in the evening before going to bed. I seen quite a few mix 6-8mg/ml for their sleepy time juice, I settled on 8.

    Pipe tobacco and Cigar extraction

    You're welcome, glad someone found it interesting lol. My final conclusion with PG/VG extraction methods: My first conclusion is that PG is easier to work with and works a lot better for cold extraction. My second conclusion is alcohol works the best for extracting everything, but it works so...

    Wizard Labs- Your Favorite Flavors

    Ya know I was getting myself down to 8mg/ml mixes and I started getting cravings for analogs again, so I mixed up a couple 25mg/ml mixes like when I started and woo a little too strong lol. 15mg/ml seems about perfect amounts for me anyways because I was a chain smoker so now I'm a chain vaper...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    As long as it taste good with no singed cotton taste you're ahead of the curve. I'm really enjoying cotton batting at the moment. :vapor:

    Vivi Nova Rebuild tutorial

    Here is a way you can go cotton without having to mod the slots on your vivi nova. Basically I have different sized sewing needles for different sized coils. Wrap the coil, install into the vivi head with the needle still in the coil. Then take cotton batting and roll it until it will fit easily...

    Wizard Labs- Your Favorite Flavors

    Yeah it depends on how the tobacco was fermented, cured and any additives. The less time fermented and the least amount of additives create cleaner extracts. Some real pipe tobacco is fermented longer and have more additives, that's why my PTE extract came out straight murky black and clogs up...

    Your best Menthol Tobacco recipe

    Thanks Graff :)... what inspired me for the thread was my nuhport juice. The tobacco flavor in it tastes pretty darn good and close to tobacco as it gets, but I can't handle much PG so I get a sore throat. So if anyone can identify the tobacco flavor type/types I can make a clone easily.

    Vivi Nova Rebuild tutorial

    Yeah after doing a burn test I'm not sure my cotton twine is 100% cotton. I did the burn test and it felt crispy when burnt, which may be a polyester mix. It says 100% cotton on the label but I have my concern with it. On another note I tried cotton batting in my vivi mini nova and it works...

    Your best Menthol Tobacco recipe

    That's right ladies and gentlemen, time to post your best menthol tobacco recipes. I would also like to see what kind of clones you guys have tried to mimic. For me I would like to figure out Nuhport from vapor kings which I believe is a dekang juice if I'm correct. One of my best: A.D.V...

    Did Clone Tutorial (genesis style)

    Even though my last setup with the 32 nichrome was working great I wanted something that heated up quicker because even if a 30 gauge wire coil and a 33 gauge coil are both the same ohm's the thicker wire still heats up slower. So I redid (all puns intended) my did using 33 awg kanthal and it's...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    Yeah cheese cloth has to have the coil wrapped right with the wraps close together and has to soak in juice for at least 1-2 hours before using so it has time to absorb/expand to wick properly otherwise it will burn. Gauze/batting is more forgiving to how you use it and is much quicker being...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    You can use any type of wick you want. There are purist that will say using anything else other than ss mesh isn't a genesis, but it really comes down to personal preference. You should check out my other thread, and you're welcome to contribute...

    Did Clone Tutorial (genesis style)

    In the pics, under all three of the nuts on the positive is the new plastic insulator. Now I can screw everything down nice and tight without worry of shorting out. The reason for this mod is because the original silicone insulator was extremely soft/squishy, when trying to screw everything down...

    Did Clone Tutorial (genesis style)

    Well I made a plastic insulator to replace the squishy silicone one I didn't like. I also tried cotton batton this time, and have to say I think my did clone prefers batton where my other atties I use cheese cloth. Vapes just great, the batton is different than anything I have tried before. More...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    Yeah it's kind of neat using cotton, how it's weaved, braided, bleached or natural makes all the different kinds preform differently. Right now I'm happy with cheese cloth for my nova's and batton for the did. Cheese cloth works so well I had been using it exclusively, but now I'm having fun...
