    RDA Gunky RDA

    If he used it to your RDA to melt and vaporize something solid and oily you will have to use alcohol over 180 proof, 91% ISO rubbing alcohol is fine. A little salt added will help it strip all the residue off your atty. A follow up with hot water and dawn will remove any traces of the alcohol...

    MCV Raptor T6 - the new mech box from the guys who did the Cherry Bomber!

    Make sure it doesn't pull your pants down. Copper 2p boxes are couch use items for me due to mass.

    MCV Raptor T6 - the new mech box from the guys who did the Cherry Bomber!

    Get a can of Nevr-Dull wadding. It is cheap and shines copper up nicely. Get Ohm's law down pat so you can get the wattage you like off your Raptor so it doesn't sit unused. It is a nice paperweight for sure, but it is an even better 2p mod.

    Tube Mech Mod for Kennedy 22m?

    I'm sorry, the post you quoted wasn't well thought out. I agree with your statement that the extra coil mass of complex builds being a detriment on a mech. My statement was to the OP, just running the math quickly shows that he isn't likely to enjoy that setup on a mech given the maximum...

    Tube Mech Mod for Kennedy 22m?

    You are never going to get a good vape with a mech with that setup. You are firing them at about 4.5 volts to the coils. You will never get more than 4.2 volts from a mech, all things considered, you most likely wont even see 4.1 to the coils on a fresh cell given resistance of the mod and...

    Back to a mech full circle

    I don't think price has to do with it. Guys with true hybrids don't want confused people thinking they are one step closer to holding a pipe bomb than they are. A true hybrid is a very safe unregulated device, as long as you follow battery safety catastrophic failure can't happen. The same only...

    Back to a mech full circle

    As I said before, the fact that there are 510 threads at all precludes it from being a true hybrid. A hybrid mech has a dedicated atty that screws directly to the tube of the mod. Two examples are the Rig and the Neptune. Some atties are built specifically to convert an existing tube mech to a...

    Back to a mech full circle

    As a side note, the Apollo is a pinless topcap mech, if it were hybrid there would be no 510 threading to be found anywhere on the mod. I'm a confirmed mech head myself, I usually have a prax1s or stingray in my pocket along with a squeeze bottle of juice. I like regulated mods just fine, but...

    Cam-M maintenance

    Nevr-dull will clean contacts nicely. So will a sand or ink eraser (the blue or grey kind that also erases paper).

    Vaporflask partnered with Wismec/Joyetech

    If it is like the stout you can lock the up/down controls by holding both the up and down buttons for 3-5 sec.

    Need guidance for first mech!

    You can't really go wrong with a 1:1 stingray as your first mech. As long as the switch doesn't fire through the magnets and you understand which atomizers you can't use with the pinless 510 topcap it is a trouble free mech that can handle whatever your batteries can.

    Smallest 26650 mod

    The stout isn't much taller than 650mm. I like my stout, but to be honest a single or dual 18650 device will serve you better. Basically all the 26650s on the market are inferior to their 18650 counterparts.

    The sigelei fuchai disappointed me because I can't find the fuchai mech now.

    Kennedy Enterprises: The Ruby Mod

    If you have used ni200 it is basically mandatory to wrap on a screw to get reasonably consistent coils.

    Just another mech thread

    A hot spring is an artifact from the days of batteries that weren't suitable for high current draw. It is essentially a fuse that will heat up, sag and stay that way once it has effectively cut the power. They work if your mod was designed to use one, though as I stated before, in a majority of...

    Just another mech thread

    I disagree with this. In a non-hotspring spring-fired mech the current should path through the switch post and barrel. If the spring heats up your other switch parts are too dirty. If it fires consistently through the spring it isn't a good mech. MCV panzer. Bombproof, and hits hard even in...

    limitless mods

    Plating doesn't enchance conductivity directly, metals like gold, rhodium, and platinum are very resistant to oxidization and corrosion so contacts and mating surfaces plated with them keep their surface conductivity longer. The copper and platinum plated copper will have the highest...

    Vape Forward Stout thread

    Saw that my local B&M has the VF lite and stout flasks in stock. Build quality is nice; the first electronic cigarette gear I ever bought was a joyetech 510, then the first ego-t when it came out and felt giant compared to the standard 510 cigalike. Anyhow, I digress. They had a VF lite in...
