    Any of you build coils for friends?

    Thank you for this post. The client still smokes, but vapes a lot when we hang out. I've mostly been just PIF my old gear. You are right. My builds have been solid up until now, but I could totally see how things could turn ugly quickly.

    NET pipe tobacco blend similar to want2vape?

    Ugh I hate those blends from w2v. I was so ...... when I bought three of them and they all tasted like crap. You should check out www.Naturally-Extracted-Tobacco.com, e-liquids for electronic cigarettes . I haven't had any of their blends, but I have heard they have gotten great reviews. I love...

    Any of you build coils for friends?

    I was thinking more of a genesis. I could build a setup with an SS mesh wick. Hopefully, it would last a while, taste good, and be easy to fill.

    Any of you build coils for friends?

    I am a direct care worker. Since I started vaping, I have gotten some of the clients at my work into it. One of the guys keeps having issues with the ego setup I gave him. Every time I come into work, he says his ecig is not working. Typically, it has something to do with the Evod or T3 he has...

    I don't get the point of mechs

    You can't build a pipe bomb to blow off your face with a regulated mod like you can with a mech!

    GVC/Big Willie's Custard/Gremlins Comparison

    Has anyone tried Velvet Cloud Vapor's Vanilla Custard? It should be up there with the other posts.

    Am I The Only Person Who Doesn't Like Flavors

    Did you steep your juices when they came in the mail? It could be an issue with that. Some vendors juice takes around 1-2 weeks of steeping before it tastes like it is supposed to.

    rebuildables! I said i wouldn't... but I did.

    I'm pretty sure the wire supplied is nichrome with NR leads.

    Questions, Questions, Questions.

    I like 32 gauge for builds for my VVVW mods. I get between 1.8-2.1 ohms with a 3/4 wrap. I also prefer Ekowool/silica. However, you can definitely experiment. For your first few builds, I'd actually recommend silica since it is so forgiving. As for burning juice onto the wick, that is mainly...

    Dual-Coil dripper - finding total resistance?

    With a dual coil setup, the resistance is halved. So a 1.5 ohm DC coil is two 3 ohm coils. You have to ensure that both coils are the same resistance with a DC build. Otherwise, one coil will get hotter than the other one.

    Good, first wire

    I like 32. I mainly use VV/VW devices and 32 is good to get resistance above 2 ohms. 32 is strong enough that I don't break it when I pull it tight.

    rebuildables! I said i wouldn't... but I did.

    Definitely you should clean your Magoo-S. Mine came with extra supplies for one build. Perhaps you should try out your own build? I really am a big fan of my Magoo. The vapor is very flavorful and thick. One of the things that people rave about is setting up the Magoo with dual coils.

    Wanted: No fuss hardware, honest retailer!

    I feel like most of the vendors I use have good customer service. For atomizers/juice holders, I pretty much use RBAs and Protanks. I have had some minor issues with the Protank, but otherwise, they have been fine for a fill up and vape type of thing. With the Protank heads, it is hit-or-miss...

    Free ecig kit

    Yeah I wouldn't recommend this kit to new people. I have no respect for vendors that sell prefilled cartomizers that 'last as long as a pack of cigarettes.' Even if the site really is just giving away ecig kits, they really are not worth it.

    Are any of the GOOD Genesis style RBAs obtainable?

    I feel like it is not much difficult to find a halfway decent genesis at a decent price. Since you are new, I would wholeheartedly recommend the RSST. It is one of the easiest to rebuild. However, no genesis style atomizers are easy to build. Not all tank RBAs are genesis. The Squape that you...

    Delay in Coil Glow

    I think the above posters misunderstood what you were asking. When you first build a coil, sometimes it takes a few fires before the Kanthal glows evenly

    The Russian

    You are doing fine, wrap them a little bit looser, but just a tiny bit. Even with my working coils, the wire slightly starts to rub on my silica. I find it easier to just wrap my coils free hand, but you could also do what the above posters tell you to.

    Purchasing pre-built coils

    For Ekowool, I usually get 2mm. Ekowool is measured by the internal diameter, so even though it is sold as 2mm, it is more like 3mm. For silica, I like 2mm or 3mm. Most of my builds are either 2mm Ekowool or 3mm Silica.

    Anyone else feel like Mt BakerVapor is just so- so?

    I agree that I respect them as a company and their customer service is awesome. After I tried juices from other vendors, I realized how one dimensional MBV's juice was, especially their tobacco flavors.
