    Kanger evod? or a knockoff? is the atomizer head screwed down tight inside? how much is it leaking over what time frame - 1/2 drop to 1 drop over several hours is normal it is not flooding is it? gurgling when you vape if the bottom is unscrewed a little from the main body it breaks the vacuum...

    First DIY juice but need an ejuice claculator for failures

    sorry but I am not a math wizard but the simplest way to duplicate would be to make mix A in the 7ml and then mix B in the 23ml size or don't change the nic (it was consistent throughout) just plan on a 60/40 pg/vg mango 18.75 % bav cream .75% malted milk .5% my reasoning - mix A was about 25%...

    Thrown into a mechanical mod...

    Or get some 18500 batteries and a kick and use it with any topper you want and don't worry about subohm or rebuilding or any of that until you are ready to get into it or get a multimeter, read baditudes blogs on batteries, study up on ohms law, take night courses in electrical theory and use...

    One beginner question about Atomizer, thanks!

    the iClear atomizer is a dual coil so a lot more work goes into building them correctly

    New Member with some questions

    make sure the positive posts on the tanks (not the batteries) are not pushed up too far - over tightening will compress the insulator and may cause the issues you are seeing

    Trying to decide between 2 beginner RBAs

    I would choose neither - gennies are a pain to build - get a Tobeco kayfun lite+ clone on ebay for $35-$45 and save yourself hours of frustration building, tipping to get it to wick, wiping down the leaks etc by the way just in case you didn't notice I am not a fan of gennies at all - I have...

    E-Juice flavor to strong

    I would just experiment with a small amount (2ml) and just try adding 3-5 drops of distilled water (20 drops usually equals about 1ml - depends on your dropper) to dilute it out - vg is available at walmart but I have heard it has a slight "soapy" after taste steeping does help but most...

    iClear 30b Drip Tip question

    drip tip snug fit is hit or miss across many devices in my opinion take your drip tip and tank to the local hardware store and hang out in the oring section and just look for one that gives it a more secure fit (make sure the one you buy you clean well with soapy water to remove any possible...

    Is sub ohm really necessary??

    I agree with most - sub ohming is NOT necessary nor is it for everyone just like bungy jumping is not for everyone. Sure it might be fun to try but the vast majority are just as happy with their normal 1.5 - 2.8 ohm coils (most vapors fall into the 6-12 watt range for their sweet spot for flavor...

    Been reading on here for a while, just signed up, first post

    Hey Shigglyboo - welcome to the ECF I have 2 of the Tobeco kayfun lite + clones and am very happy with them (to get the originals you normally need to get on a wait list) - they have excellent flavor and vapor production no, there are no easy replacement coils for them to purchase so yes, you...

    Ohms and Voltage Relationship

    Prebuilt coils state the correct resistance so if it says it is 2.1 ohms then there are two 4.2 ohm coils (dual coil heads are always in parallel - so the final total resistance is half of the individual coils) 6 volts at 2.1 ohms comes to a little more than 17 watts - about 90% of all people...

    flat top battery question?

    the nzonic has room to allow an 18650 with a kick and mine has a floating positive pin up top - I unscrew the lower battery tube section - attach my device (tank or dripper) - and then tighten until snug (do not over tighten, you may damage your battery) you may need to adjust the upper and...
