    IGO-L will not fire!!!

    What if you sold ink jet printers and cartridges batteries and clearomizers. You could sell the printers batteries cheap and have more owners buying more of your cartridges clearomizers. What if you could lock owners into your cartridges clearomizers by lowering an electrical contact in the...

    Restrictions on nicotine Restrictions on caffeine Restrictions on alcohol Restrictions on sweeteners Restrictions on salt Restrictions on meat That which is not specifically approved is banned. We're all accelerating down that slippery slope exponentially. Not just the EU.

    what makes dripping so good?

    The REO is the most flexible mod on the planet. It's dripping upside down, from the bottom. It was designed in the days before RBAs got so popular and so has a juice well to catch any juice from disposable atomizer or cartomizer air holes. Either work well on it, bridge-free disposable attys...

    what makes dripping so good?

    No doubt the Kayfun is a good, if large and heavy, juice delivery device. Its design is essentially a common RDA (expansion chamber) sitting in the bottom of a tank--an RDA with a properly centered coil with air flowing to it from below. To keep it relevant to this thread, one could chop off the...

    Blu cartomizer and battery compat. questions

    The answer is yes, the Blu carts are compatible. Make sure they are screwed on well and the 510 connector on the mods is clean and dry.

    "Dripping"

    I'm with tj99959 on skipping the RDAs for now and I use both of the bridge-free Empire Mods attys he linked to. I posted this earlier: The many-year dedicated drippers here on ECF, including the man I consider the guru of flavors, use disposables, many sticking to the bridged Joyetech and some...

    "Dripping"

    It means the bottom of the 510 connector is sealed and won't pass juice up from a bottom-feeder such as a REO. Most disposable attys are open on the bottom of the positive post and are usually closed off by the positive post of a well-made mod that isn't a bottom-feeder. I've never used a sealed...

    what makes dripping so good?

    I'll submit this is the case with most RDAs, with a tank-like "reservoir" of juice below an offset coil you can't drip onto. Some even fill it with wick to keep the juice from leaking out. Even though one fills that reservoir or soaks all that wick by dripping into it, I personally don't...

    what makes dripping so good?

    IMO, dripping into a disposable atomizer, especially a bridge-free, is the pinnacle of vaping, especially when it comes to flavor. It's just you and a couple of drops of fresh juice on a coil, directly below the drip tip. No long, flavor sapping wicks. No juice getting pre-cooked in those wicks...

    Back to ciggies - conceivable?

    It's likely my heirs will get some frozen nicotine base, along with heirloom quality mechanical mods and RBAs. On the odd chance I outlive it, I'll be so old it won't matter if I go back to smoking.

    Just some observations: The clearomizer on the left is what an ecig n00bie often calls a "tank." It can attach to a battery and so could be called a "topper." However, as shown, it is useless without an atomizer. The item on the right is what an ecig vet thinks of when you say, "a tank."...

    The Sophia Rebuildable Atomizer by Leo **Discussion & Tips**

    Mail carrier just left... :D :D :D :D :D :D After a little fondling (and a 1.75Ω check) I'm kissing sweet Sophia with some drips of MOV Apache just as she arrived... air intakes at 50%. This is HEAVENLY! :thumbs: Edit on Sunday to add: Second Sophia on order with STR 5 and STR 15, Beck...

    We need a general name or term for...

    You can't go wrong with "atomizer." That which is powered by the battery is an atomizer, a component typically consisting of a "coil" of resistance wire that boils or "vaporizes" e-liquid, aka "juice," held in a "wick" inside the coil into vapor. An atomizer may be a disposable or a...

    There doesn't seem to be a lot of love for the 808

    :laugh: I do that sometimes. Please come back to this thread and let us know how they worked out for you.

    OMB publishes the FDA's deeming regulation information on the December agenda

    Those who have the money to take the FDA to court are the big cigalike suppliers; V2, NJOY, Blu (Lorillard), and now RJR with VUSE. It's in their best interest that nicotine only be available for retail in disposables and pre-filled cartos (which are inherently more safe "for the children.") If...

    EU EU update

    If they thought cigarette butts with filters were bad, wait'll they see little plastic bottles blowing and rolling around all over… not to mention the "six-pack" rings they'll come in. Each bottle is going to have to come with a small book with all the labeling in ten different languages. :laugh:

    EU EU update

    The 2 ml ecig makes no sense. Most disposables and prefilled cartos are only 1 ml anyway. There may be some hybrids and bottom-feeders affected by this, but most ecigs just have a 510 connector for a separate juice delivery device. Do they plan to ban clearomizers, carto tanks, and RBAs with...
