    Migrating my N mini loving brother to a rebuildable tank

    I know the V5 has airflow reducers but that might be a bit much for a newer vaper and idk if the reducers are available for/fit on the clones... and I'm surely not suggesting a $115 tank for... well anyone, personally. You may very well be right about the V5, though. I was under the impression...

    Installing battery ribbon

    So as it turns out, the tolerance on the battery door is so tight that it won't close with a ribbon in there. I might be able to work it out well enough that it closes enough to be fine, especially since this mod won't ever leave the house (unregulated with no lock, no thank you) but I'm really...

    Installing battery ribbon

    So I'm sure no one can say for sure, but I realized that where I'm going to have to affix the ribbon is not aluminum, but seemingly some kind of plastic that the entire battery sled is made of. I did get some epoxy and also super glue but I know super glue doesn't play well with some plastics. I...

    Installing battery ribbon

    I've got no problem if the answer is "yes" but do you think epoxy is necessary just for a ribbon?

    RX 2/3 Owner's Thread

    @TheMaddestVaper I'm not sure about the RX200S or RX 2/3, but I had read on multiple occasions and in multiple places that SMOK tanks did not play well with the original RX200. As far as I know, the 200S and hopefully 2/3 have updated connectors, but the RX200 510 connectors were basically being...

    Migrating my N mini loving brother to a rebuildable tank

    Probably something like a Kayfun V5/clone. Someone else can give you more info on it as I have only used one a couple of times since it's not really my style, but Kayfuns are undoubtedly the rebuildables for MTL vapers.

    Installing battery ribbon

    Wasn't sure the best spot for this, so please move if necessary, as I know you will! I just got a Tesla Invader mini (dual parallel 18650 unregulated with MOSFET) as a knockaround mod. The batteries are really tight so I want to put in a ribbon, not only for day-to-day, but in case something...

    Eleaf iStick Pico Mega 100w (Uses 8650 or 26650 Batteries)

    Everywhere I've seen lists the accepted atomizer diameter as 22mm like the original* (and indeed the battery cap does not seem to afford any extra room) but I'll be curious for someone to try and cram a 24mm on there. *the original Pico also accepts most 23mm atomizers

    Eleaf iStick "pico"

    The pico is only capable of reaching 75W when using a relatively narrow range of resistance, .4-.6 ohms. This was covered thoroughly in PBusardo's video on the pico. You should use whatever CDR makes you feel safe and is appropriate. But the comments about needing only 25A+ are not rooted in...

    Eleaf iStick "pico"

    Actually, a 20A should be sufficient but it is undeniably always good to have extra headroom. However, the Pico will not fire at full power once the battery is near dead (but above cutoff) so a good 20A should not pose a problem. Indeed, with certain low resistances the Pico will never fire at...

    RDA Your most pleasant surprises?

    @bwh79 to be fair, I have not tried them yet. I just assumed they'd be OK because the screws were. I haven't actually changed out the screws but did check the new ones. I just got Velocity O-rings from avidvaper. I can try them out sooner than later to let you know but my intention was for those...

    Eleaf iStick "pico"

    Has anyone gotten an EC coil with a sort of loose bottom and ended up with a leaking tank because of it? I just got a bunch of new stuff including a new Pico kit and had an almost-disaster when my M3M (Melo 3 Mini) leaked all over the brand new Pico but I think I got the tank off quickly enough...

    Eleaf iStick "pico"

    Just be careful... there is some conflicting info about whether or not the VTC series is still produced. I buy from IMRBatteries almost exclusively and they claim to still be getting VTC3s, 4s, and 5s, but there is always a chance they are being duped themselves. What I can say is that I have...

    Eleaf iStick "pico"

    Yes, PLEASE get a better battery to use!! Really, besides a small subset of vapers who only use low wattage and know exactly what they're doing, anyone planning on using the full features of a single-battery, 75W, TC-capable mod should be using a battery with at least 20A continuous discharge...

    RX 2/3 Owner's Thread

    That's what it is! Pretty nifty mod :) As I mentioned above, the 2 battery combo limits to 6V but otherwise everything works just dandy.

    RDA Help pick first RDA

    If you aren't sure yet whether or not you will like dripping and aren't opposed to clones, my Lawless Steamboat (Tugboat V2 clone) from 101vape is absolutely great. Probably some of the best build quality I've seen on a clone... pretty much my only complaint is that the paint detailing is coming...

    RDA Sapor V2 510 adjustable?

    I can't speak for the Sapor itself but I've had a number of atomizers like that, where it seemed like it should be adjustable but I couldn't get it to budge. I can only think of one or two situations where the pin really never did loosen up, but at least in my case, the majority of the time the...

    RX 2/3 Owner's Thread

    Sorry for the confusion @DaveP, we are indeed talking about another mod. There is the RX200 ("v1"), the RX200S, which you have, and those are both 3-battery mods as far as I know. There is a newer version, the "RX 2/3" which comes with two battery doors and is designed to operate with either 2...

    Eleaf pico 75 w/ Melo 3 mini Question

    Frankly, the Melo isn't going to be your best MTL experience no matter what coil you use, but it can be dialed down pretty far and I guess make a passable MTL tank with the right coils. I second the 1.8 Triton coils... not Triton Mini. You could also just continue using your old tank on your...

    Anybody using these new midget mods?

    I wish I liked the shape of the Aster better. It reminds me of a coffin.
