    Orion v3 is it still a hybrid?

    I know you know this already but it's ALL about efficiency when it comes to mechanical which is why I passed on the Ikarus. The contacts are SS which is a really poor choice for a conductor. Look for brass, rhodium or best of all silver. I love my poldiac for that reason. Silver plated brass...

    Orion v3 is it still a hybrid?

    Me either. I mean it really isn't an issue for me unless a mod is significantly reducing battery life. To have however made me realize that it is a hybrid. Though I do consider it kind of a stretch. Part of my feelings towards this are due to my love of high end mechanical devices. Don't get me...

    Orion v3 is it still a hybrid?

    This brings up another gripe I have. How hard is it to change a freaking battery. I never understood those 26650 mods. So while I agree with you on the increased battery life it's not an issue for me. Hell I use MNKE batteries which have a much lower mah rating than AW's just because they...

    Orion v3 is it still a hybrid?

    I don't know what you me an by "weak" 510 connection. Are you talking about the possibility of it breaking? Or weak as in a poor connection for carrying current? The real reason hybrid devices were created wasn't because of the durability of the 510 connection, but rather the fact that a 510...

    Orion v3 is it still a hybrid?

    See this is why I brought up this topic. I guess the better question is just because it has a unibody design does that make it a hybrid. I mean it being unregulated was the reason for the unibody design in the first place. If it's regulated it defeats the reasoning for it to need to be unibody...

    Orion v3 is it still a hybrid?

    See I'm from a different mindset. I would NEVER kick a mech mod it just doesn't get hot enough. And also think that those who do truly don't understand what mechanical mods are capable of. I run a .8 ohm coil of 28g kanthal that is about 17w and if you use the 18650 MNKE batts voltage drop off...

    Orion v3 is it still a hybrid?

    But the whole reason to get rid of the 510 connection was to decrease voltage loss. Not having the ability to switch out atomizers is not a desired feature. Limiting what you can use on it is not a benefit. Up until now it was a necessary evil that served a purpose. And it served it's purpose...

    What new APV are we all most excited about in 2013?

    Looks like this one is gonna be a UFS style too. I think I've talked Kato into taking a poll to see if we all would like it to have genesis atty or UFS style. I think a genny style would bring more interest personally.

    What new APV are we all most excited about in 2013?

    No worries. You can also find info at VapePit and I think VaporWall if I remember correctly about VaporWall. I know it's on the pit though.

    What new APV are we all most excited about in 2013?

    Yep Kato's work is awesome. I'm excited about the mercury and astro. Kinda like a zen sidewinder except you can connect the tubes.

    New Genesis type atomizer by DID!

    When you said DID LV I think you meant the genesis LV. When you said extra bottles that's what made me think that. Is this what it looks like? If so this is not a DID and not made by Jim.

    New Genesis type atomizer by DID!

    Don't know about the ribbon wire but wicking isn't an issue at all for me. Make a wick that is almost exactly the size of the wick hole and make it thin and hollow. When I say thin I mean that when you roll it, it should wrap around 2-3 times. When you roll it, when the bottom edge meets the...

    Alice In Vapeland ~ Premium E-juice ~ Grand Opening and Coupon Thread

    I don't get people who love coffee vapes. I have probably tried over 20 different ones and haven't liked a single one. I'm a coffee snob though. I can buy a pound of coffee for $50 without flinching. I think part of it is that everyone has their own idea of what a good cup of coffee should...

    New Genesis type atomizer by DID!

    I'll give the springs a shot. I did know about the internal resistance of the battery, but as this is my 1st time seriously paying attention to it I was curious the readings other people were getting. I do remember those cars btw. Lol thanks again Tony.

    I am SO bummed!

    I would really contact them. White Rabbit literally has no steep time and while it does get richer as it steeps it's not one of those juices that completely changes in flavor profile like a lot of tobaccos do.

    Am I the only one that has a problem with this?

    You have a very skewed idea of a dry drunk. I have no problem with medical or even recreational use of drugs that have very low physical addictive properties. That's like saying I'm on a dry drunk because I accept that other people can safely drink when I can't and have no desire to do so. Prime...

    Am I the only one that has a problem with this?

    There are many topics on here that discuss health concerns with vaping some that could give the ANTZ leads to follow to ultimately ban ecigs. One such thread is the stainless steel oxide discussion which talks about Chromium oxide possibly being inhaled. Also the silica wick discussion about...
