    Frustrated with topping off!!!

    As long as the hole on the cartomizer is still able to pull in juice then you are good to go.

    The surprise grape is subtle at 50/50 0 shots and that's what I love about it. Just got root beer and it hasn't left my Igo-L, mostly because the taste won't come out of my wick and I don't feel like rebuilding it yet, but it is a stellar vape. I might add pink champagne to my next order, I...

    Just built my 1st MICRO-COIL!!!

    The touching coils will result in lower resistance compared to the same amount or wraps not touching. As you fiddle with the microcoil you will notice that if you have a few wraps not touching and get them squished together the resistance will drop a little. I can wrap 30g 5/6 times without...

    Need Help

    You could always go with a carto-tank, IBTanked sells pyrex for $25 and a pack of 5 LR boge cartos are like $7.

    Just built my 1st MICRO-COIL!!!

    I like 30g but I am loving 29, I don't need to anneal the wire because its just the right amount of stiff. Making much cleaner wraps and getting the resistance I want--1.5-1.8ohm.

    Need to find NOW!! affordable quality SMOK replacement cartos 2.0-2.5 ohm?

    My local B&M's carry LR Boge cartos, 2.0 ohm. They are good for a carto, don't use many these days.

    My Vamo doesn't work.

    That is usually the issue with Vamo's, and the threading is easy to crossthread. If it's not reading the carto/atty then it's not making contact, I bookmarked a lot of Vamo fixes before I even bought mine, so far I haven't had any issues. . . knock on wood.

    Looks good, the best part with cotton is that you can run the head under some water, slide the cotton out, pulse the coil to burn off the gunk and slide another cotton wick in. I typically do this after I run 2 tanks through it, keeps the juice tasting great. You can get the wraps closer if you...

    I tossed it into my UC for an hour (approx a week of steeping) and let it air out for a day. I'm going to just let it sit in the basement for another week and hopefully the buttery taste will tone down. As for the Ocean Breeze, I've had that for a month plus an hour UC and its still tastes like...

    My Vamo doesn't work.

    Here is a quick tutorial for replacing the rubber washer in the Vamo. If that is indeed your problem.

    I still get the buttery flavor from Afternoon Delight, not as prevalent as Ocean Breeze but it's still there. I'm wondering if it's from the pineapple. . . It's vapable but only in small amounts, JMHO.

    Just built my 1st MICRO-COIL!!!

    I only use the 1/16 drill bit for my protank and use cotton without a "flavor wick." I find it too be too small of a wick for my Igo-L and it doesn't keep up with my vaping. I double over some 1.5 ekowool and wrap the coil on the wick. It has been working flawless and is my go-to vape.

    I figured it would start tasting better for you, but I couldn't pass up a sticky bun trade.

    Newbie here - just grabbed new stuff

    Be careful with plastic tanks, some citric and cinnamon juices will crack/melt the plastic. I like the taste from a boge carto and have since bought a pyrex tank from IBTanked so I don't have to avoid some of my juices with cartos.

    Differences between PG and VG based juice.

    Vegetable glycerin (VG) will increase vapor production and Propylene Glycol (PG) will increase flavor and throat hit. Some people are allergic or sensitive to PG and will get tightness in the chest or itchy throat. Most juice companies have a set ratio for their flavors but other sites let you...

    Make sure you snip the wire legs off flush with the grommet, it will cause shorts. Also double check that your coil isn't coming in contact with the inside of the head.

    General questions about dripping

    The submersible atomizers are rebuildable and will either require you to rewick/coil them or buy replacements, I eventually will buy the Diver from Atmistique but I don't really want to deal with non-resistance wire right now.

    Rewicking - huh?? what??

    I am currently still using the rest of my 1.5mm ekowool and really like it because it's braided unlike 1, 2, and 3mm. Just got 6 feet of 1mm last week to see the difference of braided vs. twisted.

    Rust on the coil

    Like Thrasher said, just the build up of cooked juice. The sweeter the juice the quicker it builds up, that will eventually lead to the juice in your tank turning darker and will change the taste of your juice. Just pull the wick and pulse the coil to burn it off or rebuild, either way it won't...

    Ecto Cooler tastes just like the Hi-C drink, I originally got it with +1 but have since ordered all my juices 50/50 with no shots.
