    Let's see what variable voltidge is like

    A friend offered me an analog the other day... I couldn't find the VV controls or even the fire button! A flimsy little automatic that isn't even VV?!?! Pffffff.... I gave it back to him with a look of disgust. Rookie.

    New member, thought I'd say hello

    Welcome, new folks! Don't be hesitant to ask questions, we were all new here once :) Not silly at all! It's a very powerful tool that helped me immensely through my first week and then my first month! I still look at the numbers every day :)

    Best pg/vg mix for blowing smoke rings?

    Understand that what you see in a video is often *staged* to improve that presentation. Proper lighting and dark back ground, for example. If you haven't tried it yet use a webcam to record yourself blowing a cloud of vapor and do what you can to exhale the most vapor like not inhaling it all...

    Well i bit the bullet

    If the juice is a day late you can make yourself feel better by remembering that the batteries *should* be fully charged before you use them anyway ;) Congrats on the purchase!

    I need to upgrade

    I paid $33 for my Sigelei #8 from Hoosier Vapes (they had them in stock) and it's by far my favorite battery device. Very solid, well built, stainless steel tubes, brass contacts (hidden under a thin layer of chrome) and comes with all the tubes necessary to run 350, 500 and 650 batteries. No...

    Looking for RBA to use with my Vamo

    I'll have to try ceramic before I believe any claim that flavor, wicking and vapor is significantly better than any thing else, rolled properly. I'm posting again because there is a HUGE difference, worth pointing out, between the type of "ceramic" that Hello World has posted, the hard kind...

    Mech. Mod Concern.

    Mine gets warm at 0.9 ohms when I chain vape. The real question is does it get hot in any one particular spot? The switch area is particularly indicative of a bad connection. If it gets warm, evenly warm, I'd say it's doing what (you) intended it to do... with a 0.5 ohm coil ;)

    Sigelei Mechnical Mods

    Maybe some of you read this too, maybe it's already been posted here but I caught this tonight on ........'s facebook page... a vendor, (maybe the same one who made that video?), while discussing whether or not the #19 was actually intended to be a clone of the Nzonic (which has a magnetic...

    Looking for RBA to use with my Vamo

    The "best" wick is the one that will stay wet under *your* vaping conditions. On an AGA-T2 I found a *tightly* rolled 2" piece of 500 ss mesh works best. I tried 3mm silica, I tried a 3mm silica "U wick", I tried a 3mm silica "U wick" with an extra 2mm "U wick" as a helper. I couldn't get the...

    I'm selfish because I wont share

    LOL! Welcome back to vaping Qlogic! No, I don't have that problem with family... I've had it with close friends! Finally, after saving up my pennies for a new battery I really wanted I'd start carrying around some of my older, less used stuff. I'd throw a cheap clearo on it with a flavor I...

    Welcome to ECF, exlene100! Lots of friendly, helpful people here so don't be shy! :)

    Looking for RBA to use with my Vamo

    Nope! I use an AGA-T2 on top of my mech in a pocket carry all day long and never a single leak. Also I leave the screw for the "fill hole" out for better wicking. Any leaks at all will be very minor, unless you hold it completely upside down, and the cap should fit tightly enough to contain...

    New and lost already!

    A lot of ex-smokers think that at first... because they are used to those cute, little cigarettes! Let us know how "big" you think it is after you have had it for a week or two. ;) Let him try some decent juice on top of that Spinner!

    I need help finding somewhere to buy this mod!!!!

    LOL! An IGO-L even looks a bit funny on my Vamo! And here I was expecting the same diameter as the AGAs...:blush: Oh well, it vapes very nice! I'd just be happy if all the vendors took an extra 10 seconds to *include* the dimensions of all the hardware they sell... atty's, RBAs, mods, etc.

    Looking for RBA to use with my Vamo

    Hi Mylkshake and welcome to ECF! So glad you finally decided to pop in and say "Hi"! I own two AGA-T2s and love them both. They aren't the easiest RBA to get started with, rolling wicks and coils and such, but it's not rocket science by any means. An added advantage of the AGA-T2 is the...

    I need help finding somewhere to buy this mod!!!!

    Point! But they are called "mods" because they can be easily modified to perform better, more or less. A little light sanding and some conductive grease and "voltage drop" becomes a moot point. I haven't measured my #8 yet but yes indeed, my AGA-T2 is *slightly* smaller than the tube it...

    Welcome to ECF and making the smarter choice, Sharon! Sandy has *excellent* advice! This starter kit includes some flexibility in it. I agree with the choice of the 1300 mah "Spinners" that Sandy mentioned, for the same reasons. If it says one is unavailable just select a different color. I...

    What percentage PG/VG do you vape, and why?

    I basically did the same sort of experiment myself... this is also the experiment where I learned to opt for an extra flavor shot or two when ordering higher VG... I bought one bottle of juice at 18mg, 80/20, no extra flavor. I liked it pretty well so I re-ordered it. By that time I knew I...
