    batteries that discharge at different rates

    theunforgiven1, cell age and differences in internal resistance ( a product of cell age) can cause unequal discharge. Buy your cells in pairs of identical brand and type and keep them married as pairs (and sets of 3 for triple cell mods). They will discharge similarly if kept together and used...

    Increasing ohm's on coils

    I look at SS316L as a disposable item. $7 for a 100 foot spool isn't going to break me. I just inspect and recoil as needed. If it's not smooth and shiny during a rewick I toss and replace.

    Appearance can be deceiving

    I first started with a scale, so it's my go to for DIY. I do 100ml bottles of unflavored. Pretty simple. From there, I use the unflavored as a base to mix flavors with a hypo if I want to. Mostly, the unflavored is my ADV. Really, all you need is a glass container with markings on the...

    New York State Ban?

    Way back in time my state of Georgia banned fireworks. We had to make a run over to Alabama to get fireworks for July 4th every year. Since we usually spent a week in Panama City, FL in June we'd just drive back though Alabama and pick up $100 worth of fireworks for the 4th of July. Now, they...

    Appearance can be deceiving

    All you need is a set of $25 electronic scales, some bottles to mix in, pipettes/droppers, flavors, PG and VG and a YouTube video to get up to speed on DIY. I'm betting that everything except the Nic will be available for the foreseeable future.

    Tobacco flavors may come under fire just because they are named after ... (drum roll) TOBACCO PRODUCTS! Anti-vape Nazis will climb on the prohibition band wagon and attack vaping from all angles. I have 3 liters of 100mg/ml nic frozen and that should last me for a long while at 3mg mix...

    50/50 vs 70/30

    Agree! If it's not specified we have no idea what the numbers mean. Traditionally, PG is the first number, but when the cloud vaping started some began to list the higher percentage first. Without labels we have no idea what the mix is unless it's 50/50. I vape 70/30. Until I label it...

    50/50 vs 70/30

    Technically, even water in a sealed tank shouldn't leak. O-rings are the #1 suspect if leaking occurs. For liquid to leak out, air has to enter. It's works like a straw. Dip it into a liquid, hold your finger over the top of the straw, and you can walk around without leaking until you allow...

    Those that worked indoor and are married

    No problems at my house. I quit first after vaping for a new months. My wife quit soon after and didn't care for vaping. Both of us don't smoke and she seldom complains about my unflavored 70PG/30VG vape. If I add a flavor she notices and comments about whether it smells funny, but doesn't...

    Increasing ohm's on coils

    Once the wire begins to feel a little rough during a rewick, I change it. We don't need microscopic flaky metal particles in our lungs.

    Nicotine intake calculation on vaping

    Mobc1990, It's all about nic satisfaction. If you vape high nic you might find yourself satisfied with fewer puffs per day unless you continue to vape like a fiend and get used to high nic. Then, it might be that your nic addiction requires you to continue vaping high nic juice and you are...

    Increasing ohm's on coils

    I've used rebuildables for many years. I recoiled some Kanger coil heads a few times and decided it was easier to build with attys designed for recoiling.

    Increasing ohm's on coils

    I used to dry burn, but if I have the tank broken down far enough to dry burn, it's just as easy to wind a coil and screw it down. New is better than dry burned, IMO, especially with SS316L.

    Nicotine intake calculation on vaping

    Mobc1990, It's all about the way you hit it. Long drags will give you more of a buzz. Short puffs not so much. 24mg is definitely on the high side for MTL vapers and on the extreme side for DTL cloud blowers. If you are trying to quit smoking, high nic is what you need. As you get used to...

    Tight Wicking

    I do the same with Rayon wick (make it tight enough that you have to twist it to get through the coil). It shrinks and compacts a little when you juice it up. Cotton swells, so I use a little less.

    E cig works fine for about 5 minutes then goes burnt

    You are getting partial saturation of the cotton in the coil head. It's hard to get full juice saturation in a factory coil unless you put some juice in a container, set the coil upright into the juice, and let it sit for 30 minutes. The juice can be in a bottle cap. All you need is enough...

    50/50 vs 70/30

    For me, it's always been PG/VG. Early on 90pg/10vg was common among vendors, but it was all about recreating the small plume of smoke and the throat hit created by a tobacco cigarette. Then, cloud competitions came along and the high VG craze became popular. I mix different ratios. Right...
