    RBAs are they stronger?

    I torch the coil, wrap it by hand, squueze it with tweezers, and then torch it again to make it hold the squished shape. Count the wraps if you want, I don't remember off the top of my head. 26mg? that's crazy I never went that high, probably only would've needed 1 hit, but I like the flavors...

    RBAs are they stronger?

    He wasn't really hurt, he coughed a few times and then he was fine. I added to the comedy by doing a huge lung hit and letting out a cloud right after he was finished coughing and I knew he was okay. I know the difference between wine coolers and 151 but it just hadn't crossed my mind since I...

    Interesting thing happened to my Trident (Pic inside)

    This would not have happened with an authentic trident. You atomizer oxidized (rusted) because it's a clone made of a low quality metal, real ss would not have reacted this way in that short of a time.

    Just getting setup to learn about RBA's Help with shopping list please :)

    For wire you're going to want to check 3 places, eBay, Amazon, and TemCo. They have the lowest prices on resistance wire around you can get 50-100ft of wire for $5-10. I have found 28 Gauge Kanthal A1 to be my favorite wire in RBAs. For wick, if you want the cheapest option you're going to want...

    RBAs are they stronger?

    I've been vaping on RBAs more specifically RDAs almost exclusively since my first month of vaping. I've grown accustomed to the TH, the flavor, and the vapor from these things. You get the right coil or coils on one, get a nice juice, and bam vaping nirvana. I've stepped all of my juices to 6mg...

    Pairing Food with Vaping

    Do you like to eat or drink something while you vape? I know coffee is very popular, I got some chocolate covered espresso beans this afternoon and I'm eating them while vaping some peppermint cappuccino and it's amazing. The flavors blend perfectly and I don't want to stop, I might end up...

    Pictures of your setup

    It looks like it was squished. :) Looks good though.

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    Just because it's allowed doesn't mean you should not do it. I never said it was banned, but it's rude to wear so much perfume that you get assaulted when they walk by you in the hallway. Now some people might not mind, some people don't mind getting a face-full of vapor, but some people do, and...

    Why are so many vapers against themselves?

    I've thought since I started vaping, what if I was the one being forced to smell the person vaping. Inside rooms, hallways, indoor public places, stuff like that even though vaping may not be expressly prohibited in places like this it's rude to force somebody to smell what you're vaping it's...

    Micro Coils to increase Vapor, flavor & TH

    I've found a micro-coil setup that I love, I can't set this thing down. That post screw was a little loose when I took the picture, it has been tightened down. (I have a nice little micro on my reo as well ;) ) 28 Gauge Kanthal A1, 18 Gauge Needle, cotton ball

    Finally Ordered From Vapor Chef

    I just ordered 60ml of beeblebrox and 60ml of honey pearry, two of my favorite juices to date. Beeblebrox has been the first "tobacco" flavor that I have liked. I vaped the 6ml bottle I got in a day and have been craving it since. :)

    Whats your all day device and why?

    Regulated just means there is something in the pv that watches the voltage output or watches whats happening to the battery. While most regulated devices do have some form of vv/vw built in, regulation does not mean the device can alter the output voltage. For example, if the battery is putting...

    Whats your all day device and why?

    They are just regulated pvs, they don't have the fancy circuitry vv/vw devices do but they are regulated by some basic circuitry. Circuit boards don't mean anything, they are just a way to compact circuits, any circuit board can be made with just wires, it may not be as efficient but it is...

    Anyone out there that can't stand flavored juice?

    If somebody has already mentioned this I apologize. If menthol is your thing and you want to try some flavored juice that you know will be high quality try this. Halo Menthol Sample Pack

    Whats your all day device and why?

    A mech mod is any pv that doesn't have any complex circuitry (it's "mechanical") and just some simple contacts and a button that is just a piece of metal moving up and down. Mechanical tube mods are essentially a tube, two contact pins, and a button to push one of the contacts. No circuit boards...

    do you use your right hand more or left hand more when vaping?

    I vape with both hands. When I'm on the computer most of the time I use my left because my right is either on my mouse or on the arrow keys while i'm flipping through websites like reddit. When I'm out and about I use either hand, it depends on what I'm doing if im carrying something, opening a...

    Do I really need a safe vape fuse on this mod?

    As long as you're using a good battery in a mech and are monitoring it you should be fine. If you are concerned then get one.

    Whats your all day device and why?

    VHO Titan and a VHO Helios. I have a nice ss drip tip, a dual micro-coil build wicked with cotton, it vapes like a dream. There is a ton of flavor, and rewicking it is a breeze. I'm on 3 weeks with the same coils and I vape them 8+ hours every day.

    Holy MBV prices?!?! Is this a temporary sale? Prices inside...

    It's not random, they have a flavor of the month that they give out for that month, usually.

    Great Results Using High Resistance

    What gets you vapor is the power (Wattage) you are getting on a particular coil. Less surface area (higher gauge wire/less wraps) will get you a warmer vape than more surface (lower gauge/more wraps) if you are getting the same wattage. When you have a regulated device that can force a voltage...
