    Correct 1ml Syringes?

    I don't mix juice in graduated cylinders because I feel that too much 'sticks' to the sides and takes to olong to drain out, for this reason I prefer syringes, even though they are probably not quite as accurate. In the lab, to mix things in graduated cylinders we would use parafilm over the...

    Correct 1ml Syringes?

    David, just FYI, the measurements on beakers are (or can be) wildly inaccurate. I don't know how picky you are, but measurements on beakers can be off by 5-10 ml or so (the larger the beaker, the more inaccurate, generally). This is what I learned in many years of lab work. For measuring...

    Correct 1ml Syringes?

    Oh, I'd also recommend getting some larger syringes as well as the 1 ml ones. 1 ml is good for flavorings and maybe nicotine, depending on the level you use and the amount of juice you are making, but for VG and PG you'll probably want the capability to measure a larger volume all at once...

    Correct 1ml Syringes?

    Those are fine. The 1 ml syringes that come WITH needles attached usually have very very tiny gauge needles, because they are for insulin injections. You don't want the little tiny gauge needles. Also, they are sharps, which you don't want, you want blunt end needles. I think needles are...

    What up with Wizard Labs?

    My order was just flavors. Probably had something to do with their website maintenance thing.

    New to Vaping - trying to quit smoking!

    I've been on ECF for quite a while, and I notice that people find their way to completely cutting out cigarettes in a wide variety of ways. Some people have success by being very strict with themselves, "I will not smoke again, period". To help with this they do many of the same things...

    Ex-smokers turned vapers...

    I consider myself an ex-smoker. I have not had a cigarette in over 3 years. On a medical form I will tick the box for ex-smoker or former smoker, if it doesn't ask about nicotine use, I will write that out to the side or note that I do still use nicotine.

    What up with Wizard Labs?

    Gah, I hear you. I placed orders at wizard labs and TFA on the same day, one right after the other. I received my TFA order before the wizard order even shipped. Pretty slow stuff. I do know that their site was giving a maintenance message all yesterday. Hoping my order gets here by Thursday!

    Why doesn't everyone switch to e-cigs?!

    Yep, I'd like to see it reworded with regards to the 'smoking' questions. Unless you really are only wanting people who currently smoke to take the survey, in which case I shouldn't have taken it.

    Why doesn't everyone switch to e-cigs?!

    Answered from the US. I was a bit confused in some of the early questions because it seemed like you were using smoking the describe what you do with an electronic cigarette. Made it kind of hard to figure out how to answer since I don't 'smoke' an electronic cigarette. None of the...

    New to ECF and have some questions!

    Lots of people really like dripping, say it gives better flavor. I'm not a huge fan, just too much trouble to vape, vape, vape, drip, etc... I do like the flavor, but it's really only something I do when I'm testing juices I've made. I use a rebuildable tank. The one I use is the Kayfun lite...

    New to ECF and have some questions!

    Or DIY your own juice? Lol. There is so much DIY in vaping. For building your own coils, which I think is what you were asking about, check out the rebuildable forum. Urm... I should have looked up the link. I'll be back... Rebuildable Atomizer Systems

    New to ECF and have some questions!

    One thing you can do is find a good vape shop in your area. Usually they will have testers out, where you can taste a lot of different liquids. Back in the days before there were so many vapor shops, we'd have to just order something that sounded good online and hope it was decent. You can...

    DIY E Juice Help

    Another reason people might mix down their nicotine before using it is for accuracy. Safety is probably the most commons reason, but it affects the accuracy too. It's easier to measure 1.2 ml of liquid accurately than it is to measure 0.6 ml (at least with the tools most of us are using for...

    Sudden hard throat hit..

    Pretty sure OP is using a stock coil, so surely silica.

    Sudden hard throat hit..

    Sometimes this happens to me when my coil is old and develops a 'hot spot'. I'll start getting harsh hits, take apart my Kayfun and when I dry burn the coil, it is clear that there is a hot spot (one portion of the coil heats up faster and brighter than the rest of the coil). I don't know why...
