    User friendly RBA setups?

    This is the best I can do. AGA-T2 on my Sig #8 and one on my Vamo V2, both in 18650 mode: The flash makes tiny particles of dust, hairline scratches and finger prints MUCH more apparent in that photo than they are in real life. Brand new an AGA-T2 is a work of beauty. :)

    User friendly RBA setups?

    LOL! I wondered about you... :D Actually it doesn't bother me. I told myself it was like that to help protect the atty in case of a roll over ;)

    User friendly RBA setups?

    Speaking of but that photo of your GUS clone... are you sure the AGI isn't just a bit smaller than the mech is? It kind of looks like it is, in that photo.

    User friendly RBA setups?

    Yes. The AGA-T2 is slightly smaller (22mm?) than the #8, but so is my IGO-L and all the rest of my attachments too. I thought you meant "flush" as in screws all the way down! :D

    User friendly RBA setups?

    Why won't it be? I run an AGA-T2 on my Sig #8 and it sits flush. I didn't get a chance to try my buddies AGI on my mech but I have my own AGI in the mail as I type this. The center pin in the #8 is adjustable.

    Question: Is it the lower the ohms, the more juice u will use, and vica versa?????

    Now for a real comparison? I have a factory clearo (about the same size head as a vivi nova) that reads 2.4 ohms. If I turn up voltage so I'm getting good vapor but *without* burning the juice (that's what happens with too many watts in a device designed for much less) it still uses the juice...

    Question: Is it the lower the ohms, the more juice u will use, and vica versa?????

    A brand new vivi nova, a real one, will usually come with three different wicks. For the most part they are the same... one might have a few strands of small silica, another might have one big one. They are usually labeled in a range of 1.8, 2.4 and 2.8 ohms. They are essentially the same...

    Worst feeling in my life, too much nicotine?

    Too much nicotine most likely. I'd order/find a bottle of no-nic VG or PG too and dilute some of the juice with that. It may take some experimentation to find the right level and that level may change as your habits and level of addiction adjust as well. Too much and it will make you sick...

    Orion 2.1 problem ... Help??

    Yikes! IF the battery is good then you have to address the fact that that electricity is going somewhere. Does any of it seem to get hot? Have you changed anything at all in how or what you vape? How long have you been using it? Have you asked the manufacturer?

    Question: Is it the lower the ohms, the more juice u will use, and vica versa?????

    Ohms is a measurement of the electrical resistance of the atomizer. Ohms don't vaporize e-liquid, heat does. Electrical energy converted to heat can be expressed as watts. The formula to calculate watts is watts = (voltage x voltage)/resistance. Most factory made devices seem to vape best at...

    Question: Is it the lower the ohms, the more juice u will use, and vica versa?????

    Hi! Put simply ohms have absolutely nothing to do with how fast a device goes through the juice, not directly anyway. The only three factors that contribute to juice consumption rate are the size of the wick, the size and make up of the coil around the wick, and airflow. Low ohms are...

    User friendly RBA setups?

    Both are excellent with SS mesh. I didn't like either one with silica... it couldn't maintain a fast enough rate of wicking. This is a photo of a "U-wick" I did on an AGA-T2, that's 3mm of silica, with a second 2mm silica "helper wick", so 3mm + 2mm of silica under the coil. I like to chain...

    Genesis Question

    First, a properly oxidized and coiled wick can stand straight up. Close to the center post is a bandaid that covers the real problem. So is a washer. Second, mini DID... clear or metal tank? If you use the metal tank and your wick isn't thoroughly oxidized then you REALLY want to have that...

    Help on RBA

    I know the RSST gets a lot of love and for plenty of good reasons too but I'd like to share my thoughts on it and why a "more difficult" genny like the AGAs might be better... It wasn't very long ago that I was first getting started in RBAs myself. I remember asking a lot of the same questions...

    Odd AGA t2

    You mean like this? All the T2s look like that. That lets you run even dual ss mesh coils if you really wanted to or quad silica wicks (dual "U wicks"). EDIT: No, the T2s do NOT come with a brass washer and spring on the positive post ;)

    Help on RBA

    I agree with Baditude. As an amateur photographer with a few years of experience I used to give newbies this advice... "Take the budget you have for your camera and then double it, because after you buy all the little extras you are eventually going to need that's what you will have spent."...
