    Don't let anyone tell you that nicotine is a poison...

    All you have to do is look at a nicotine molecule side-by-side with a caffeine molecule. List the effects on the body side-by-side too. Now remove the names, mix them up like a magician does with a ball under a cup, and tell me which molecule is which. The two are so similar, you might have...

    Chinese clones Rant / Discussion

    I don't really have anything against China. If those 1:1 clones are any indication of what China is capable of, then all they need are some original ideas and they could justifiably own the world's economy. But until then, I do support the original mod makers. I recently saw on Mojo's Facebook...

    A few issues with HCigar King...

    Why toothpaste? I'm guessing it's a sort of polishing method, but you can buy a tin of Mothers for about 5 bucks. Anyway, make sure the threads are clean (soapy water and a toothbrush - skip the toothpaste) and clean them regularly. Tighten the bottom pin pretty well and it shouldn't come...

    Designer Ecigs?

    Could anyone imagine a Versace mod? How many miles of awesome would that one drive. :-)

    I stuck myself with wire

    Yeah, I've done that before... Usually I catch the strays with just my eyes. One time it was my foot that caught it, and I could have sworn it was the biggest hunk of metal EVER. Nope, just 30g wire. :-) Still, could be worse. I remember a guy posted a picture of his finger on Facebook...

    Question about combining nicotine levels in juice

    Sigh... I miss dimensional analysis. Ever since I graduated college, I try to make math problems harder just to have some fun. Everything can be turned into a differential equation somehow! :p

    Kayfun LITE

    I put an o-ring I thought was extra tight into the top cap simply because of what Pluid can do to them. Filled it up, and it leaked everywhere! haha. Never had that happen to me before, but that's the only thing I did different, so I'm positive that o-ring was the problem.

    Worst Flavor(s) you've ever vaped?

    I never really understood why people, when they try something gross, turn to their friends and say, "Ewww, this is disgusting! Here, try it!" I'm reminded of those Bertie Botts "every flavor" jelly beans. As soon as I saw they had a cardboard flavor, I was sold.

    Kayfun LITE

    Hello fellow Kayfuner's, I've got a question for you. I plan to rock some Pluid in my Kayfun Lite. I want to know if I should worry about melting the isolators. Does anyone have experience with this? Replacing the O-rings is easy and expected, but I'm just not sure about the isolators.

    I just might do that! Thanks so much Kathy. :-)

    Will a higher ohm coil last longer than a lower ohm coil?

    Usually a lower ohm coil will have a thicker wire, or just less wraps. But typically, a higher ohm coil will last a bit longer, but it's nothing to do with the material itself (thicker wire, etc). It's just because the lower the ohms, the hotter it burns, and the hotter it burns, the faster...

    Im about to give up...

    Before I really got into rebuildables and filled my drawers with silica, mesh and wire, I learned to keep a few boxes of standard cartomizers (or just a few standard 510 atomizers) off to the side. I had been using an eGo-C, and it was hit or miss with the atomizers... when it worked, it worked...

    ECF is the Black Hole of The Internet

    Snopes always did it for me, but I'm a sucker for folklore and urban legends. :-)

    Bedazzle Glass Tubes

    Hi Kathy! I'm planning on ordering some spare tanks for my Bliss atomizers (I've acquired one v2 and two v3's over the last few weeks!) and I'm wondering if I can expect them to fit with the stock O-rings, or will I have to experiment? I'm gonna order them regardless, I just want to know if I...

    The youngest vaper

    I smoked for about 8 years (albeit quite heavily, looking back) before I switched. I bought a cig-a-like as a gag because I told my girlfriend I would try to quit (although I had very little intention of actually doing it; I enjoyed smoking). Well, the rest is history!

    Worst Flavor(s) you've ever vaped?

    Am I the only one who gets an absolute kick out of how people describe juice they hate? One of my favorites I read on Mt. Baker Vapor, but I forget the juice itself. Someone described it as "tasting like a used diaper".

    Worst Flavor(s) you've ever vaped?

    I don't know... Dekang's Desert Ship pretty much helped me make the switch to vaping (it also gave me vaper's tongue early on, but I forgave it haha). I haven't ordered it in quite some time (almost a year, I think), mainly because I can't be bothered to find it in 12mg, but I distinctly...

    Taking apart locking ring on HCigar Chi-You?

    If it's anything like the real Chi You, you have to unscrew the brass contact, and remove the button. After that the lock ring should screw off the bottom cap.

    Please HELP. Lost spring in my Mortar V 5

    You can find packs of springs at Home Depot for about 5 bucks, I'm sure one would fit (even if you have to cut it to size). I've replaced the stock spring for one of my own in most of the mods I own :-)
