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

    Glad to help roonies, even if all I gave you was a laugh or a smile :) One other point... some say a higher VG can coat your tongue more and mute your tastebuds even further. Drink lots of water and when you brush your teeth give your tongue a good cleaning too!

    Katya! You changed out your avatar! I like this one too but the other one just had that... look of "wisdom" about it ;)

    Sigelei Kicked - Have anyone tried this?

    Absolutely! And honestly, a well built mech IS more durable than a Vamo too ;) This is one of the big reasons I got interested in mechs... durability at a sweet price point. All I have so far is a Sig #8 and I'm waiting on a #19. For that kind of money is ANYTHING as durable??? No wires to...

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

    It's funny you should mention that. Since I started seriously vaping I *always* keep something nearby to sip on. I've noticed that higher VG doesn't dehydrate me as much as higher PG concentrations but... I'm also a mustache kind of guy! Today I noticed, when I blow out a BIG cloud of vapor...

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

    Good point! It's often said on this forum (and elsewhere) that PG carries the flavor better and VG mutes flavor but supplies more vapor. I find this to be mostly true as well. When I'm intending to cut a juice down with a bunch of extra VG I'll usually opt to get extra "flavor shots", etc. to...

    noob ?s low ohms concerns

    I hope that link helps! I am by NO means an electrical engineer! From my understanding (from links like that one and other threads on this forum) 10 watts at the coil is 10 watts at the coil. The difference being how much waste -heat- is being generated in the rest of the system (flimsy...

    Hi everyone... New to e-cigs

    Hey victorb! Welcome to ECF and congrats on finding "the way out"! LOTS of helpful, friendly people here and more information than you might know what to do with. Don't be shy and remember: We were ALL new here, once. :) Ooooh.... Nice! THAT one is officially the best one-liner I have...

    Wire mesh and kanthal wire question

    Temco is THE place to buy wire, in my opinion. Great prices, fast shipping, quality product. Often they have sales too! I just bought a 100 foot roll of 30 gauge kanthal from them for under $5. OKCvapes is a good place to buy mesh. Steammonkey often stocks some too. I bought my last mesh...

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

    This is a point I was going to make but you beat me to it! :) My wife and I share a couple of bottles of flavors we both like. She prefers higher nicotine and more PG (for the throat hit). I like less nicotine and around a 50/50 blend... I like vapor, both on the inhale which helps make up...

    IGO-L Drip Tips

    Thanks! I've developed a habitual addiction to collecting new drip tips and have been after this one for over a week now! I saw this one at surevapes but the angle of the photo didn't close the deal for me... I wasn't sure it would sit flush on the top of the IGO-L or not. Ordered!

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

    That's the 13A you want then. The 13B has the "benefit" of being configurable so you can put the fire button on the top of the mod, next to the attached tank, etc. The drawback is that they used plastic in this design... and wire(?) to make it happen. While the 13A is not configurable in this...

    The Kick by Sigelei?

    It's really nothing magical. I just wrote an extensive post in the New Members section (yeah! really!) of the forum in defense of SLR vaping. TL;DR version: lower gauge wire = thicker wire and longer runs to better incorporate thicker wicks at a given resistance. Thicker wicks = more juice...

    noob ?s low ohms concerns

    What you *might* be missing is that electricity traveling through solid material, even the battery, encounters resistance. That internal resistance actually consumes some of the power intended for the coil in your atty. It's wasted instead as heat, in every piece of the hardware. Worse yet as...

    The Kick by Sigelei?

    LOL! I love my vamo too. I love my un-kicked mech MORE :D Of course I'm having to vape liquid with only half the nicotine and sometimes those gigantic clouds of SLR vapor make it hard to see but everything has it's price.

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

    I'm told the 13b has a plastic mount in the switch, making it the weak point. Are you sure you wouldn't prefer a 13a with the metal switch?

    Sigelei Kicked - Have anyone tried this?

    I'm certainly not arguing against that possibility! But for the average vaper, the average *experienced* vaper, the mech is reserved for special use primarily because they already have at least one other battery, probably VV/VW, to screw on the occasional stardust or vivi. And dripper on an...

    Sigelei Kicked - Have anyone tried this?

    Thanks all, for the reinforcement. I honestly have the NEW MEMBER in mind when I post a reply to threads such as this one. I would argue that if you can see well enough and have enough "manual dexterity" to put a key in a lock with one hand you have enough to start building your own coils...
