    ohm setting on boxer yihi sx550j

    Did you try tightening your screws? If it's a dual coil, that sounds suspiciously like one of them not making a full connection. That doesn't really account for why it's reading 0.2 on others, but I'd still double check that your leads are sufficiently fastened down.

    Berried Alive (mixed berry candy)

    This is a culmination of a lot of trial and error. It is my partner's favorite juice of mine and his ADV. Intense, flavourful, sweet-sour berry candy with blackberry and blue raspberry predominating and strawberry/raspberry on the back. You might want to cut down the flavor some for RDAs...

    At least one location still has the Hohmtech HohmWrecker for $60, same with the Slice. If you go price searching, you can find a DNA75 for that amount ($20-30 above the battlestar, say $70-80). If you go used, you could probably find a DNA167 for a bit more. It is my personal opinion that any...

    HOHM Wrecker 151W TC ?

    Same. It's great. Any time I have something on another mod that just isn't doing it, I always know I can toss it on the G2 and be good to go. I would use mine more if I had more than two of them, so I'm aiming to get another lol.

    RDA Help?

    If you need to save some money, this is what you need for a bare minimum to start building, besides your mod, juice, and the topper itself: 1. precision screwdriver set like THIS or similar and whatever you need to operate the screws on your RDA 2. Flush wire cutter 3. pliers 4. wire. I...

    Vandy Vape Govad rta

    Meh. I've been so underwhelmed with the RDA. Just can't get it working for my style. I can probably pass on this. Is there any point of that 2mL mode besides TPD compliance? I absolutely hate the Kylin in the larger size; I think they blew the extension there (but I've been enjoying 2mL...

    Agreed on this point. The Battlestar may be slightly better built, but it's another inexpensive Chinese device. It just happens to have a devoted fan base, but so does the Alien. There's no real harm in getting one but it's probably not going to give you a hugely different experience. The temp...

    I mean, there's no particular reason you should feel COMPELLED to stay below 80W, but as I keep saying it's all about what you're comfortable with. if you don't like high wattages, don't use them. If you do, don't feel like it's dangerous because you're new. You have a regulated device and we...

    had smok alien for a week hate the baby beast no flavor

    Yeah. Once your coil is warmed up you can set it and leave it at a wattage you like. It just really helps to work up slowly for the first 15-20 puffs. Some of the coils for the TFV12 can handle 100W and well above. I also do not like vaping that high, definitely not on a factory coil and...

    It is a lot to take in, for sure. No-- you don't need nickel coils. I mean, yes, Nickel coils are for temp control and you need temp control to use nickel coils. But Nickel, along with Titanium, are older temp control materials. Stainless steel (316L primarily, but other grades, too) is...

    lololololol. Seriously. Definitely not my preference, but I didn't notice it had none until I was holding it in my hands!

    had smok alien for a week hate the baby beast no flavor

    Ignore the amps your board is showing. The Chinese mods that show "amp draw" are calculating based on ohm's law, but that's not really how it works with regulated mods. Regulated mods draw their power from the chip instead of directly from the battery. You do not need to be worried AT ALL about...

    Also, I just got my Pharaoh RTA and love it. I'm taking a quick look at the Battlestar now; I'm not that familiar with it. One big benefit of the Pharaoh for a new builder is the interchangeable decks. You may find one easier to build on than another, and actually the default deck is nice and...

    If you have money to burn, a Nitecore SC2 (2-bay) will charge your batteries very quickly. Otherwise, a Nitecore i2 (2-bay) or i4 (4-bay) should be great. While this doesn't get to the heart of the matter, as a general rule, as ohm's INCREASE, the power (wattage) required to run them...

    Vaping & Family Support

    My parents and my partner have all been great. I feel like my partner wouldn't have ever started smoking if it weren't for me (one of my biggest regrets), so we started vaping together. He doesn't fully get the hobby aspect and obsession but he's a good sport and pretty much lets me do what I...

    @petrotech wanted to give it an overnight steep but I did indeed mix up 60mLs off the bat a few mins after that post, 30 with Kool and 30 without. I'll let you know how it is! edit: Here's another recipe. This one is NOT mine, it's from ELR. However, I have simplified it the tiniest bit. Lilt...

    The AL85 has no vent holes, period. I have yet to hear of mass AL85 explosions, so whether or not this is something OP is comfortable with is a personal decision... but there are no vent holes pointing towards your face because there are no vent holes at all. Tho it's not as if these Chinese...

    Interesting; do you find them easier to strip, just more likely to skip threads, what makes them difficult for you?
