New GOTVAPES.com 2nd Multi Mega Prize Monthly CONTEST Giveaway!!!
OK, so you ARE optimistic! :D I grew up in Oregon, bounced back to the midwest, then far eastern Washington and have slowly been hopping my way west for the last 16 years or so. Hit the ocean now, been here for a couple of years! Work is slow but so is the general pace of life... which I... -

Heh, you either haven't lived in Western Washington very long or you are VERY optimistic! :D Closer to the coast if the weather man predicts *anything* more than about 12 hours out he is by default, a liar! ;) -

Exhale Vapor- the best customer service!
How long ago did you start a ticket? It generally can take a day or two but they are particularly busy with opening a new shop, new website, and getting truck loads of orders (and pre-orders!) in and *out* and may be at the limit for the moment. There facebook page is also a good place to...- Oktyabr

New AGA-T users with wicking problems!
Wow! 3.5"?!?!? I just got a new wick rolled last night out of 3" of 500 mesh. It slides in and out fairly easily but doesn't leave much room. It's snug enough that I could stick it half way in and it would not fall the rest of the way to the bottom with gravity alone. This is rolled as...- Oktyabr

Saturday Surprise! Premiering at GotVapes The L-rider Corolla SCOPE Telescoping Mechanical Mod w/ Adjustable Airflow
It's certainly a great looking, feature packed mod, especially at THAT price! One question though... do you have any photos of the switch assembly from *inside* the tube? I'm curious how they got that design to work. Any wires? -

HAHAHHAH!!! We actually have full sun today out here on the coast! My wife is sitting out in the front yard with much that same look on her face ;) -
So I get my new Sigelei #13 today
That sucks hard! Here is a photo of the end cap on my #8, just for comparison (the brass screw in the spring and washers on the firing pin are addons, not factory): -
So I'm sitting here thinking why does a passthrough need a battery?
I WANT a good deal on a 450+ mah passthrough that is actually reliable and can in fact be used while it is charging (many say they can but won't, until the battery is at least partially charged). VV would be an option I would spend more money on. Any suggestions?- Oktyabr

What would your choice be for a backup device
I'm a newer member of the mech club too. One sigelei #8 and a #19 coming soon (I hope!). I bought my first mech thinking of using it as a "backup" for my vamo but I've found I actually use the two in reverse, so another mech as a backup for my first mech! I'd be using a Provari the same way... -
Where on earth can I find a good mech mod?
I love my Sig #8 and they are still available! Vaportekusa has them for $33 and some change. "Lots of stuff coming out of China is cheaply made, blah, blah, blah" and "Real pain to return a DOA, blah, blah, blah" and further "China uses cheap steel, blah, blah, blah" OK, good points, for...- Oktyabr

Quality Silica Wick vs. Cheap Silica Wick and Alternatives. Help?
Yeah, Big Tex treats his Nextel ceramic in a kiln. I remember another thread that suggested a really high temp pre-treat and then it should be kiln fired at something like 1000 degrees for one to four hours. Something like that. The point is folks shouldn't just rush out and buy the...- Oktyabr

Sigelei Mechnical Mods
Nice! My local hardware store has an interesting collection of brass, copper and aluminum stock in rod, tubes and sheets, for "hobby" applications I think the display said. I kind of wondered about slop in the pin myself when I first noticed that sometimes it would fire better if I applied... -

Sigelei Mechnical Mods
Just *lightly* sand the chrome off of the negative "cup" and off of the end of the firing pin. See the photos I posted just a little bit up. If you need more detailed instructions start at the beginning of this thread. Pretty much everything you ever might want to know about "modding" a... -
Sigelei Mechnical Mods
Yeah, that makes sense. Yes, they are a little wider than the threaded part. I suppose I could sleight-of-hand my way through this by making sure they are pointed towards the battery end of things when I screw that bottom cap back on... that's probably the reason it's firing now. Those were... -
Sigelei Mechnical Mods
Since I had it apart I decided to take some photos so if anyone has been interested in seeing the guts of (yet another) slightly modified #8, here you go: -
Sigelei Mechnical Mods
OK masters of the sigelei pinky switch... let me try this one on you! So yes, a bit of heat and the button unscrewed. I put two very small brass washers (flat washers) on the end and screwed it all back together. Very short throw, which I think I like. I tried it out, no fire! Tried... -
fuzion vapor unicorn blood and vaping problems
I found Unicorn Blood the closest I've had to a real, fruit punch sort of flavor. Vaped about half a tank of it out of one of my ss mesh wicked AGA-T2s and decided to let it steep for a week or two. My taste buds are still not real sensitive to most fruit flavors when it comes to vaping, but...
