    OHM numbers aren't matching up?

    It is really tough to train 7-12 year olds to be completely consistent for the full 16 hours of their work shift in the Chinese factories

    Looking to switch to vaping but I need advice.

    Most beginners seem to want to start with "cigalike" type (small stick style batteries that closely resemble cigs) Personal Vaporizers (PV) and almost always end up upgrading to a larger battery within a few weeks try to find an ego style VV (variable voltage) battery in the 900-1100 mah range...

    Halo Triton Tricks

    unfortunately there are not a lot of options for different tanks for the triton as it uses a non-standard threading (808 and Vgo - this is deliberate to prevent you from buying accessories from other vendors - several companies do this) I can only suggest getting the lowest ohm heads (1.8 to 2)...

    help setting up cheesecloth wick in kayfun 3.1

    My suggestion would be to use cotton yarn, wrap the coil before you install it (wrap it once on the bottom leg right next to the coil, then wrap around the outside of the coil (experiment with 1, 2, or 3 layers - more layers will add to difficulty of everything staying in place though) and then...

    Advice for upgrade please

    if you like the quality of Innoken I would recommend the SVD then - it will give you the ability to use removable batteries and adjust the size easily as it is telescopic (it will use batteries from 18350 up to 18650). It is still a VV/VW regulated device so it will work quite well with all...

    vari or not to vari

    I prefer VV/VW over mechs 1. Mechs get gradually weaker as the battery charge wears down - VV/VW devices hold it level from start to end 2. You can accidently discharge a battery too far in a Mech - VV/VW devices will shut down when they get to 3.3 volts 3. Mechs have no built in safeties -...

    New, sorry for the trouble.

    well, it isn't water vapor, its pg and vg that is being vaporized and it is probably the throat hit that is making you cough. what level of nic are you using? and yes the nic will absorb by just holing in your mouth and not inhaling it

    a total newbie

    the headache may be from the low nic, or it may be from you getting dehydrated (vaping will dehydrate you - drink more water (not pop or coffee)) or it may be an issue with the pg/vg blend. what brand and pg/vg level did you order? The nicotine absorption is mainly through the mouth and mucous...

    I bought this, what else do I need?

    here is where I get kanthal Kanthal A1 Wire 32 Gauge 100 ft 0 25oz Resistance Resistor AWG A 1 | eBay for some reason their 30ga kanthal is much, much more expensive than the 32 ga - probably due to the vapor demand (but still cheaper than a dollar a foot from some vendors) I don't buy wire...

    I must be the only one

    yup, your the only one. but we won't ban you from the forum because everyone is entitled to their own opinion no matter how wrong they are. Just joking :) That's why there are hundreds (seems like it) of eliquid companies out there to help match people with a flavor (psst, just a word of...

    Vamo V5 18650 question

    no safety fuse needed in regulated mods like the vamo, svd, provari,, etc the electronic board in these devices is your safety fuse as it regulates the voltage and will shut down if at certain high or low voltages, low ohms on coil, and high amp draw from the battery safety fuses are needed on...

    Innokin security code question

    It is possible you mistyped it the first time. I take it was an ebay purchase now that Ebay is a seller beware site (they will freeze your funds if you slow ship or get negative feedback) this security code by innoken is just a ploy to make people think that they are sooo good that everyone...

    Another public e-cig company - this time with a patent twist.

    They force the company to fire all employees under the age of 12. Which halts all production and the company has to close.
