    Are fancy $100+ mechanical mods a waste of money if you're still working with vivi novas and protanks?

    Beat me to it ;) OK, I'll try to add something to this thread in a productive sort of way... "i am considering a mech mod as a back up" Yeah, so did I. Now my Vamo is the backup for my mech! And a second mech on order with at least a third in my future too, I'm sure. Glad I didn't settle...

    Caravela clone

    I think "mod" is short for "modifiable". I would argue that cheaper Chinese clones are *easier* to get improvement out of because of the unfinished quality some may (or may not) have, offering a certain appeal to the tinkerer that *wants* to work on a mod themselves, polish it, etch it...

    Yup. I'd vape that. Thought about Whiteout with Butter Cream too.

    Caravela clone

    I think all of us here would! Or rather I'd rather have 4-5 GOOD ones! The problem is it's stupid chasing over priced 60 second sales or paying twice as much as retail just to get your hands on someone else's "used" goods. IF my local vendor stocked Caravela, Nzonic, GG, etc. I'd probably...

    I want to upgrade to APV... but WHY?

    And more "options" in regards to VV (and/or VW capability... something a Provari will "never have", so I'm told) and usually a lower resistance thresh hold. I think most egos and like won't fire anything below 1.5 ohms. Most regulated APVs like the Provari, Zmax, Vamo, etc. will usually handle...

    I want to upgrade to APV... but WHY?

    The only thing an APV can possibly give you "more" of is amperage. Egos and the like are very low amperage and most come with built in over discharge protection (that's why they use a sealed battery) to keep them from melting down. Most AVPs are built of stouter electronics and are designed...

    I want to upgrade to APV... but WHY?

    As a VERY happy Vamo owner I would say, from reading your post, you NEED to buy a Provari! Not just because it's "better built" or whatever but it seems you've already convinced yourself of it's superiority and IF you buy anything else, no matter how good or cheap it might be, you will likely...

    does anyone know a website that is selling the nimbus atomizer or any really low resistance and low ohm atomizers?

    I agree with everything you just said here. The Igo-L at least has a bit of a bowl to hold juice. A little gurgle through the factory airhole once in awhile but I've gotten pretty good about not overfilling it now. I tried dental floss under the cap o-rings... that worked but I ended up going...

    @tekk - check this one: vapelyfe robs quad coil - YouTube I would never recommend an RDA/RBA for a beginner. Be sure you watch LOTS of videos if you decide to do this though... And welcome to ECF!

    does anyone know a website that is selling the nimbus atomizer or any really low resistance and low ohm atomizers?

    Nice vid! I'd be interested in finding a vendor for that DRA dripper too. I tried a pair of fat coils on my Igo-L, wrapped for 0.6 ohms, and it worked great and with a big enough air hole can make gigantic clouds of vapor... but it was *very* inconsistent across the battery charge (I use a...

    What is a mechanical pv and what are the benefits of a mechanical

    A mechanical is exactly that. No wires and no computer chip that regulates the voltage like the one in your Provari does. ALL mechanical mods are functionally just a metal tube that holds the battery, a metal switch that completes a connection (like a light switch for example), and a threaded...

    does anyone know a website that is selling the nimbus atomizer or any really low resistance and low ohm atomizers?

    That's informative. Too bad more vendors didn't host photos actually showing that. Double posts *might* make it easier... or the extra post may just get in the way. People are doing dual and even quad coils on Igo-Ls just fine... although the point of doing so escapes me. The OP asked for...

    Caravela clone

    The fringe benefit of this surge of Chinese clones is that flippers that were getting 2x MSRP for a "used" "real" one are likely loosing much of their market and not too pleased. I like the Rolex analogy... except these are on even a lower playing field. $200-300? That used to by one...

    Dual coil aga t2 advice

    It's tough enough to pulse one coil to carbonization. I can't even imagine a dual coil would be worth the effort... But I'll give you a thumbs up if you pull it off! :D

    How my ecig almost got me in jail

    What's crazy is that I live in a state where a substance that is illegal most everywhere else was just made legal. I wouldn't get harassed at all for THAT, unless I was intoxicated, but I know one guy who claims anyway that he was stopped with his APV... something about a laser.

    eGo Vamo v2

    DIY *can* be better, the potential is there, but if it was just as easy as mixing up some nic base and throwing some flavors in it then *everyone* would do it. It actually IS that easy... but to make really *great* juice is an art form and takes practice. I buy juice from a lot of different...

    Sigelei Mechnical Mods

    Possible... but I think unlikely. :) 3-4 weeks isn't that long. I'll email them myself too and inquire about spare parts for sigeleis... not one or two, but an inventory.
