    Battery safety check on first mech mod setup

    first questions - at what points on the tank did you take the ohm reading? at the top on the screws and center post or on the bottom where the 510 connector is?

    Ultra Sonic Jewerly cleaner for steeping???

    what Cromeus said - Exceeepppt the heat, heat will break down the flavor molecules (and possibly the nic) very quickly if you go over 100 degrees F - 80-90 degrees max works best my personal test - mixed my ADV, split it into two 5ml bottles, steeped for four 8 minute cycles in my USJC, tested...

    The most vapor

    for tanks I like the Kayfun Lite+ It is an RBA so you do need to learn to build coils but the kayfun is simple to build and works great with the adjustable air flow Stay away from genesis style RBA's (RSST, AGA-T etc) they have a HUUUGGGGE learning curve to get to work right and also have...

    Frustrated

    Your clearo or tank will make a huge difference on flavor - Aspire brand has gotten great reviews regarding flavor - I personally use Protanks and Kayfun Lite+ (the Kayfun is an RBA - you may not be ready to build your own coils yet but it has fantastic flavor Also a VV or VV/VW battery will...
