    Chemical Purge to Nic Free

    True addiction has always been something that's boggled me, I personally can stop doing anything if given a reason to. I hate that there's the cliche "I can stop anytime I want to!" because for me I really can. That being said, when I was smoking I found that I had the desire to light up a...

    Getting a family member into RBAs

    Yeah I forgot to add the power source info but I covered it in my reply above.

    Getting a family member into RBAs

    1/2/3 OF COURSE! :) Those are the basics, give me some credit here. I have MUCH more vaping gear than I should, granted the majority are mechs and RDAs but I have a kayfun, a few protanks, a REO ;) and some other stuff... so she will definitely be exposed to a ton. I'm probably just going to...

    Getting a family member into RBAs

    This Sunday I will be going over to a family members house to teach her about RBAs. She's been vaping on egos and clearos on and off for awhile now I got her interested in RBAs after she tried one of mine. The reason I've been trying to get her to switch to specifically RDAs is that she really...

    Vaping Outside ? Like it more or less?

    I really enjoy sitting outside in a jacket when it's cold outside while vaping when there's no wind. There's just something about how the vapor reacts with cold air that makes it beautiful.

    REO Grand and "Sub-Ohm"

    http://www.reosmods.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=777&category_id=3&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=9 The repair kit has different parts than the ones in my reo. Is this the "sub-ohm" upgrade kit? EDIT: used google and figured it out, nevermind

    Does Wattage Really Affect Mechanicals?

    You want your power source to have a significantly higher current limit than what you need. You should never go above 80% of the cell's current limit. The more current you draw from a battery the higher the chance of it failing, while this could be a simple fizzle it could also vent pretty badly...

    Gin=PGA? Will it work in cleaning a new kayfun?

    I'm pretty sure gin will make everything taste like gin. The reason people use vodka and pga is because they have almost no taste. Gin is not PGA. PGA is 100% alcohol or very close to it, that's why its PURE Grain Alcohol :). Since you're in Nevada you can buy 95% (190 proof) everclear which is...

    Cuttwood in bulk

    Find a B&M that has them on their shelves. Talk to the owner and see if they can order you a bigger bottle.

    For those of us in SoCal.....

    The "for your health" part is what bugs me.

    It set it off, Why?

    Smoke detectors "detect smoke" by the visibility/consistency in air. Anything that blocks it (vapor, smoke, etc...) will set one off.

    Heimdall

    Well the Heimdall is a pretty mod but I think what you need to do is make a list of everything you want from a mech and then go from there. After you know what you want you can make a decision if it's worth the price tag. Me personally, I bought an authentic Nemesis and have loved every second...

    Cotton?

    No problem. One thing I forgot to mention though, pay attention to how your vape tastes. When cotton is dry it will let you know by burning and that's just unpleasant. You will notice that just before it is dry enough to burn that the flavor of your vape will change. Oh and, welcome to cotton...

    Cotton?

    Organic cotton or sterile cotton. You can either pick up a bag of cotton balls (make sure they are organic and not treated with things like bleach, it will say this on the package) or you can pick up sterile cotton which is often sold in rolls and is most often used in medical applications. Make...

    The Myth of the 30 Amp Battery

    At the max you want to go to 80% of the battery's rating for continuous discharge, on a 30A battery that'd be 24. Now 30A batteries can discharge at 30A safely but the chances that something catastrophic will happen increase as you near the battery's limit. If these batteries were running in a...

    Stacking Batteries

    The Kick v2 is capable of outputting about 2-6 volts at 6amps. The OKR-T/10 costs about a fourth of the price of the Kick and is capable of about 0.6-6 volts at 10 amps. The Naos Raptor (NSR020A0X43Z) however leaves them both in the dust capable of about 0.6-6 volts at 20 amps still for about...

    Variable Wattage Devices

    Something you might want to consider when looking for your next device, you can always wrap the mod don't let the available colors deter you.

    Stacking Batteries

    You mock stacking batteries but it's really common, mods like the Duke (any OKR-T/10 mod) use stacked batteries, any mods that use the Naos Raptor also use stacked batteries.

    Stacking Batteries

    No, you misunderstood. You need a charger that can charge them WHILE stacked and is capable of balancing each cell. Something like this http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__7028__Turnigy_Accucel_6_50W_6A_Balancer_Charger_w_Accessories.html With a charger like this you will need to pick up...

    Stacking Batteries

    Yes and no. Generally the vaping community looks down on stacking batteries but that's because most people don't do it correctly. If you're going to stack batteries you need to get a charger that's capable of charging and balancing the pack (the two batteries you stacked). After you stack them...
