    Help if you can

    The OP stated using VTC 5 'A' cells, which have a 25a CDR. The amp reading displayed on the screen is a worthless output amp's ( from chip to delivery device ). It has nothing to do with input amps ( from batteries to chip). Your questions have been answered in previous posts & links, let us...

    Is 0mg safer?

    Less harmful than the known toxins & carcinogens contained in tobacco smoke,,, yes. Still bad? define 'bad' and then compared to what? If you have any concerns about the safety of vaping, don't vape, simple.

    Mouth only inhaling safest?

    If you're concerned or worried about the safety of vaping 0 Nic, probably best to not vape at all. Inhaling anything other than clean fresh air comes with risks.

    Brand new Smok devilkin wont turn on.

    Which exact batteries? matched pair? Installed in proper orientation? 5 rapid clicks of the fire button? With Smok you gotta expect frequent dud / malfunctioning / inoperative products.

    You only prime new / unused coil heads, once. There is no reason to re prime a head that is already saturated, in fact over saturating the wicking material is what causes flooding, spitting / liquid in mouth.

    I'd say the only thing Smok got right, ever, is the Nord. Might be your inhale strength pulling more liquid into the head than can be vaporized with each hit. (too strong, hard, fast inhale) If you inhale strongly trying to use a restricted Dtl with the 1.4Ω head you surely are over saturating...

    Which coil head are you using? What is the Pg/Vg ratio of the liquids you're using? When was the last time you replaced the coil head? Have you removed the pod & cleaned & dried both mating surfaces & airflow? If you over fill the pod they will leak & spit.

    Smok stick v8 buzzing sound

    Buzzing & vibrating from a low quality internal battery power device is not good. It is a sealed unit not user serviceable other than cleaning the 510 connection points. I'd find a decent replacement asap.

    Mouth to lung question

    I Dtl so called Mtl delivery devices all the time, use whatever inhalation method that works best for you & quit working about labels. You'll have to try it for yourself, just because I do doesn't mean it will work well for you. The 70% Pg is going to be fairly thin for the large wicking holes...

    Concentrate vs Plain OJ

    The OP is talking about mixing a small amount (hopefully) of cream of tarter (potassium bitartrate) with orange juice then drinking it. Doesn't matter what you mix the COT with, the carrier (fruit juice or whatever) is just used to make it palatable enough to swallow. That and fresh squeezed OJ...

    question about my vape

    You can, but you will still be limited by the output power and the voltage drop as the battery depletes of the stickv8, so most likely you'll see no difference. Best upgrade is to a decent regulated power device with variable power output. Then you'll have consistent power output going to...

    Received broken DOTAIO

    I'd try it with the dry burn protection off, no harm in trying. The reason I say this is the one I had never once fired with dry burn protection on using any of the 6 .3Ω mesh heads I tried. The nautilus & triton mini heads work well in it if you have the adapter. BTW, dotmod doesn't...

    Hello vapers

    Misty blue, green, rose or silver? It is very difficult to replicate the taste & feel of inhaling smoldering tobacco when transitioning to inhaling vapor, most folks end up with something that will 'do' but isn't all that similar to smoking. The tobacco combustion/burning/smoldering process...

    Received broken DOTAIO

    The blinking light can signify more than ' no atomizer '. Do you have the dry burn protection feature on or off? Must be in off position unless using ss316 coil(s). Blinking purple. What exact battery are you using? If you're using a low quality cell with an insufficient CDR it will blink...

    Pairing “Hohm Life” batts w regulated mod, ohms down to 0.10.

    It's been said many times before and you've been given links that explain it in simple to understand terms. Battery configuration - series / parallel and or resistance makes no difference when calculating battery amp demand using a decent regulated power device. ---> Calculating battery current...

    Newbie need help

    How many of each? Are you using matched sets? or mixed & mis matched? The Ultrafire cells should not be used, at all.

    Nautilus 2S Tank (LEAKING FOR DAYZ)!

    Everyone gets a bum head every now & then. Sooner or later It happens to everyone that uses replaceable coil head type delivery devices. Even though it is rare now days compared to just a year or so ago from time to time you gotta expect it from rapidly mass produced cheap products, cheap as...

    tank is leaking ?

    If you're using the 1.6Ω head and you hit it a few times at 20w you've scorched the wicking material which reduces the wicking material ability to absorb & hold liquid properly. As said before with 2 air holes open & a strong inhale you're pulling more liquid into the head than can be...

    tank is leaking ?

    Strange, all mine came with the .5Ω head pre installed. What does the display show the resistance is? Like I said 15w - 20w would burn the 1.6Ω head very rapidly, this would cause all sorts of problems, odd, off, funky or burnt tastes, leaking, wet vape, liquid in mouth etc.. 2 air holes open...

    The response I got from him in early June was; " ProVari Repair is closed due to other responsibilities. I am considering reopening in late summer/fall."
