    Sweet Spot or Spider Silk?

    Thanks for the heads up - I haven't read up on it yet, but I just assumed that it would be since it's made (or advertised, anyway) specifically for vaping. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sweet Spot or Spider Silk?

    Hello Seekers. Need to re-up on Ti wire (or "Twire" if you're feeling whimsical). Anyone have a preference for Sweet Spot over Spider Silk or vice-versa? Does it matter one way or the other for a garden variety tootle puffer build not named after a guitar god? I don't see how it could, but...

    Rebuildable Tank Atomizers - An Anthology, Pictorial, Builds and Reviews.

    Hey, folks. Really enjoying this thread - many thanks to Sedge and everyone who's shared their experience. Just picked up an Aqua V2 in the classies, which will be my first high-end authentic RTA. Very excited about it. Looking at a Heron/Spheroid next since I mostly vape NETs. Dems86 has a...

    Couple of Goliath V2 tips

    +1 for the top fill method. This thing gave me fits until I figured that out. Could NOT remove the base without it coming apart at the tank and could not get the JC to budge. For whatever reason, filling from the top solved the problem. The lever through the air flow hole is a great idea for...

    Yiloong sends Rose to Prison!

    That's ... um ... wow ... unique? Might be a good performer, but it looks like something somebody made out of spare parts in his garage. If it were brass or copper, it might look kinda steam-punky, though.

    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    Just saw that this morning. Put a GMini and a Goliath V2 in my cart, then got distracted by the Cthulhu V2. That one looks great, but from the discussion in that thread, sounds like there may be some QC issues. Might be best to wait for the second batch. Take a look at the Cthulhu V2 on Smog -...

    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    Just a heads up - Gearbest has the GMini on sale for $19.99. Plus free shipping. I've never ordered from them, but they can't possibly be slower than Fastech, and that's the lowest price I've seen for an authentic. They also have the new UD Bellus that looks interesting - 5 ml tank, top fill...

    quick question (probably easy to answer)

    I think you're safe to go up a bit, but first check the basics - make sure the coil head is screwed down tight into the base and that the tank is making good contact with the connection on your mod. If that's all as it should be, take it up a littke bit at a time and see if the vape improves. If...

    Best above-ohm tank

    You might want to take a look at the Goliath V2 - it has an RBA deck and accepts pre-made coils, but it's not a sub-ohm tank, per se. I opted for the Goblin Mini just for aesthetic reasons, but I think I'm gonna pony-up for the Goliath too. The deck is easier to build on (bigger and no offset...

    Are we spoiled and what about new vapers?

    LOL. Smelling better always makes one seem smarter - which is mostly the same thing [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    OMG, I'm doing physics and math? Vaping has made me so much smarter!

    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    I get an off taste from time to time, too. Need to try dual coils and see if it goes away. My fear is that the plug-thingy is the culprit, which would be a drag since I much prefer single coils. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    No problem - they should look great since the Mini is mostly glass. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    FYI, colored Pyrex tanks are now available for the Mini at Spectrum Tanks. Tank size #44 - red, green, blue, amber and smoke. No pictures up yet, but you can look at the other tank sizes to see the colors. I was hoping for teal to go with the Cyan evic VT mini that I know I'll eventually have to...

    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    1.5 should be very doable with twisted 32g. In my experience (and memory), the twisted wire should be similar to 28g in size and resistance. It will afford you more wraps than a single strand 32g coil at 1.5 ohms for more coil-to-wick contact, and it's more substantial, so the leads are easier...

    Interesting - I didn't know glass could be painted like that. Report back if you find something. I'd like to give it a try. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    Just got my Goblin Mini yesterday and I'm loving it - flavor is fantastic and the single coil option and great airflow control make it an excellent mouth-to-lung tank. I'm really glad it turned out that way because honestly, I bought the tank just for the looks. I love the big glass/minimal top...
