    Anyone run out and grab a Vamo V3 yet?

    When the voltage starts to near 3.4V I can typically sense a performance dropoff. I usually check periodically and when it reads 3.5V I swap it out, but I did let it go once to make sure that the protection was working and my V3 stopped working when it was in the 3.3-3.2V range.

    DUMB question : Why do atomizers "spit" at you sometimes?

    With my microcoils that's the only time I get spitting, when I have too little cotton threaded through it. I'm still working on trying to find a standard length and width of cotton that will fit in my 1/16" coils perfectly so that I can cut a bunch up ahead of time. I'm getting a little better...

    OMG, RBA with a twist.

    What is the resistance of your new coil? Twisting the wires together lowers the resistance, so using a thicker wire will have a similar result.

    Rewicking clearomizers, any advice/suggestions?

    Try SteamMonkey.com or KidneyPuncher.com; they should have everything you need. If you want large quantities you can find everything you need on eBay.

    Anyone run out and grab a Vamo V3 yet?

    Hold down the left button and it will display the remaining voltage on the battery; hold down the right button and it will show you the resistance of your atomizer. Personally I have mine set to display the voltage setting I have chosen when I press the fire button, so I can see all three...

    rba crazy throat hit?!

    Make sure the air hole is positioned right in front of the wick and coil. If it's off center the throat hit will increase substantially.

    question about e cig batteries

    I don't usually buy into vaping conspiracy theories. Rechargeable batteries don't last forever, no matter what battery you use it will only be rated to last a certain number of charge/discharge cycles. A year of use on an eGo doesn't seem bad at all.

    ego batteries

    Get in the habit of pressing some paper towel in there and twisting it around each time you remove your tank or whatever you are vaping with. That will keep it pretty clean. Sometimes if you end up with a little bit of leaking into the connection the juice in there will caramelize and build up...

    ego batteries

    I don't either. I typically just twist up a corner of paper towel and clean it that way but from time to time the paper towel will come out awfully dirty. That's usually when I use the alcohol to break up the residue inside, it comes out looking as good as new.

    Let it steep. Remove the cap and dropper for 24 hours in a cool and dark place, then cap it and let it sit for a couple of weeks. Shake it each day if you can. Not a guaranteed fix (it just might not be your cup o' tea) but steeping helps many liquids improve.

    ego batteries

    If you have any residue in there saturate a Q-Tip with some rubbing alcohol and swab all around the connector, then wipe it all down with a paper towel. If you are worried about the alcohol working its way inside simply hold the battery with the connection facing downward while you do it.

    Micro Coils to increase Vapor, flavor & TH

    I understand. I believe super_X_drifter was actually referring to the screwdriver Todd used in the video, not his latest wrap which he posted pictures of.

    RSST Nylon replacement nut ???

    Yeah, I didn't see replacement nylon nuts for it anywhere. I'm not sure if they are a standard item that can be found at a hardware store or not. I did see in the reviews for those insulators that people said they solved their leaking issues; perhaps they were referring to using them on the deck...

    What should I stock up on?

    The golden rule of vaping is to have backups for your backups. You don't need a second eVic, but definitely buy one or two spare batteries so that when you need to charge the one you are using you won't have to stop vaping while it charges. You may want to invest in a smaller eGo style battery...

    Pluid--What just happened?

    I used to love anise flavors when I was a kid, then had a run-in with a bottle of Sambuca in college. 20 years later and the smell of black licorice still makes me gag.

    Weight Gain/Loss/Steady since started Vaping

    I've stayed at the same weight but that is a plus in my eyes. The first time I quit smoking (before I learned about vaping) I gained 20 pounds; it was one of the reasons I ended up smoking again.
