    Genesis coiling question

    I have always had better success wrapping with the wick already installed. Better control factor for me, esp. when making 6 windings and up.

    Heavy Duty PV setup

    Use mechanical mods ... always have a number of clearos, cartos, RBAs, etc. around in case 1 of them conks out. You can't beat a good mechanical to take a punch.

    Another e-cig company merges with big tobacco

    A good stash of Nic base and freezer space is the path to salvation from taxation and regulation. Supply and demand. Nic will cont. to be available where there are buyers.

    Good Side Effects

    If you get into high VG, low-ohm vaping on mechanicals, you should get another inch, and the missus might just loosen the vaping supplies purse strings a tad.

  8. Hello World

    I went out without a back up.

    Always take 2, sometimes even 3 with me so I don't get stranded and end up buying a pack of smokes.

    AGA-T2 Center Post question?!?!

    To allow for thermal movement, doesn't need to be any tighter. Never had one leak. Nothing to do with any hot spots.

    Efest VS AW

    I usually stick with AW and Panasonic batteries. I do have 1 Efest 2600 mAh high drain battery though, and I'm quite happy with it, performing very well.

    Your still a noob when you still have some credit left on your cards.

    fc-2000 porous ceramic wick

    Cut 4" (5" if you are doing it for the first time) Kanthal wire off. This is for 28ga Kanthal. Stick in drillbit. Note the wire has a spooled curve. Fasten one end of wire to "inside" of neg screw so about half an inch sticks through and run the wire on the outside and against the drill bit...

    fc-2000 porous ceramic wick

    I will make one at some point, but don't have the time for it right now. Most dreaded is getting the antiquated 2004 Logitech 480p cam up which used to freeze my computer then. My digital camera only shoots 30 seconds. Let me know if you have any questions. It's actually really simple just the...

    fc-2000 porous ceramic wick

    Hey Vap ... It would probably be best to refer to this as the "Electrically Annealed Handwrap." First, it causes confusion because people will continually ask what HWW is, secondly I don't care to have anything named after me. In all such examinations, many people's suggestions were drawn upon...

    fc-2000 porous ceramic wick

    That's to help oxidize SS mesh to prevent shorts. You don't need to do that for ceramic as it's not conductive. If anything, it might inhibit wicking.

    Attempting to join the world of RBAs..

    I have a 4.5" inch (mesh length) 1/8" rolled rock solid 500 SS wick in the ZAP and I take maybe 1 primer puff at most and she's cooking away at 1.2Ω and 3.7 volts. If all issues I had mentioned above are in order, then it seems to me you are either not getting enough juice or power to the coil...

    PM me for an application for the "E-cig Noobie Course Completion" test & certificate along with a picture of your sisters. :laugh:

    Attempting to join the world of RBAs..

    Ya, seems similar. Lack of adequate airflow into the tank can also restrict juice wicking up to the coil. You didn't indicate if you are doing any better now. Kanthal & Nico are your options, but I doubt using either makes any difference as far as getting your juice vaporized. I've dumped SS...

    RBA's responsible for lower nic?

    I think it's a combination of more vape (volume) and better nic break up from a superior wick/coil setup as I also went from 24mgs on clearos down to 8mgs with Genny RBAs. Enlarging the airhole potentially allows for faster vape intake, but I doubt it has any direct bearing in reducing your nic...
