    Shady!!!!

    I think the point is that the better the vaping community is at regulating itself, the less we open ourselves up to heavy government regulation. I don't like to judge based on appearance either, but at the moment, while vaping is being so closely and suspiciously scrutinized, the appearance of a...

    Fasttech's Best RBA/RDA

    You're gonna need wick and wire even if you get the attys from FT. I think most of them come with one installed, but I don't know if I'd use it. If you just need a few supplies to tide you over, try this place: Wire and Wick Everything all in one spot - 5 feet of silica, 10 feet of wire...

    Glass replacement tanks for Kanger Pro Tank II?

    I've been waiting for the colored glass to be available before I get the PT2. A 5-pack of different colors is awesome :)

    Clone: Private 2 (Grand Vapor)

    Here ya go: I've had it for a month or so, and it's my favorite, so it's in my hand all the time. It's hard to see the color in that picture, but it still looks good - I haven't noticed the gold color looking thin anywhere or brass showing through the silver chrome. I would actually buy...

    No Wick CE5?

    Haven't tried the EVOD cuz of the clear mouthpiece - you can see the condensation build-up in it and it oogs me out. I know it happens in all of them, but out of sight, out of mind. I really liked the CE3's, which were the first truly functional bottom coil clearos to hit the market, and I'll...

    Saw my first vaper in the wild! The reflex is an only child..

    I have a hard time remembering that not all vapers are vape-enthusiasts. Some of them, perhaps even most, plug away at their cig-alikes and their Blus in purely utilitarian fashion and care not a whit about ohms or vdrop or the comparative virtues of various wicking materials. I tried to strike...

    Naturally-Extracted-Tobacco - Grand Opening!!![closed]

    Hello, rdsok! I don't disagree with you at all. I wasn't really trying to compare Chris's Blend to Vurly or Honey Flue as one aromatic to another or comment on which was more characteristic of or a better example of that style. Having never been a pipe smoker, I am utterly unqualified to express...

    Naturally-Extracted-Tobacco - Grand Opening!!![closed]

    Thank you, sir. So far, I'm still undecided as to whether CB was better or just first. I'm seriously digging the Coventry at the moment. And you're right; they may be sisters. I'll have to get to know them both a little better before I decide who's the tramp and who's the angel, though :)

    Naturally-Extracted-Tobacco - Grand Opening!!![closed]

    Finally got to break open my first sample pack yesterday - Gold, Coventry Court and Chris's Blend. I started with the Gold in an RDA, dual microcoils with cotton wicks @ .8 ohms. On the first vape, the the name that popped into my head was "Benson & Hedges." I have not smoked that brand for...

    Tool school, please

    Thanks, folks. I have learned much. I do have a drill that I can use in lieu of the dremel, and I really like the hex driver idea. Worst case scenario, I'll ask my brother-in-law to do it -- he's sort of a tool.

    Hybrid Elite Mod by Rainbow Heaven

    As someone noted earlier there is a lot of space between the wick hole and the pos post - any hot leg issues?

    No Wick CE5?

    Interesting. I'm not a big clearo fan, but I may have to give these a try. They look like the V1 Stardust before you could take them apart and change the heads. That would be a big step backwards, I think. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk 2

    Great - thank you.

    Tool school, please

    I have a couple of RSSTs, a couple of AGA-T+'s and a couple of Igo-Ls. What do you mean by 3/8" drill? I have a "standard" Dremel and cordless drill, but I don't have a chuck or collet or whatever it is I need to hold a drill bit that small - that's what I'm looking for. I agree about the size...

    Tool school, please

    I want to drill out the air holes on my RBAs. At this point, I just want to make existing holes bigger, but I may need / want to drill new holes someday, so I'd like to have whatever I need to accomplish that. I have - or rather, I have access to - a Dremel and a drill, but I need an attachment...

    Mechanical mods (Yes, again)

    +1 on the KTS. I have three plus a Sigelei #8. Each of them sits on my desk every day with its own genny or dripper (also clones) and each with a different flavor of juice. For me, that's the real beauty of cheap clones - I can have so many and keep so many flavors and coil/wick configurations...

    microcoils vs ribbon wire

    I've been using microcoils with cotton for dripping, and it really is the best vape I've ever had. I'm waiting on some 28g Kanthal - I've been using 30 and I usually end up with a 2.5 or 2.6 ohm coil. That's not unreasonable, but I only really enjoy them on my Provari and I only have one of...

    For anyone considering dripping

    Both a 510 and a 306 will attach to a battery with a 510 connection. This is a (gunky) 510 bridgeless atomizer: You can see the coil in the bottom. In a newer, cleaner atty (and/or a better picture), you can usually see the wick sticking out a bit on either side of the coil. Drip 2 or...
