    Smok tfv4 leaking help!!!

    Thanks for that tomzgreat, but I did verify the number with Smok. It's a real deal alrighty. I watched a couple youboob vids about dealing with leaks and It did go for a few hours without leaking last night and I was very thrilled that I had apparently dealt with it, but this morning I...

    Smok tfv4 leaking help!!!

    edit: I removed the tirade. Most unbecoming. I might take the time to swap out o-rings etc, but I'm also an M2L vaper and this thing is more for D2Lers really. It just doesn't meet my preferences.

    A quick TFV4 Mini question if I may...

    I got a TFV4 Mini delivered today and the rebuildable atty section comes pre-built with a Clapton coil and is labelled TF-RCA. (4 screw single coil) Anybody ever used this head for TC using titanium instead? It looks very similar to the Subtank mini RBA which works quite well with Ti. I gotta...

    Humor the newbie...

    You can be a swan, or a cheetah, or a duck and even a tug-boat if you wish. Up here on the barren tundra we can be whatever we wish as long as it makes us happy. Heck, I'm dressed like a turnip! And loving it. Feel free to rattle my cage any time you need something. I'm usually not too far...

    Request a list of Canadian suppliers (Liquids & Vaporizers) (via PM only)

    And this might be useful for gettin yer noodle around the vernacular here. Some terms get automatically highlighted and if you hover your pointer over it will give you explanations, but the New Members Info area has pretty much the whole sheebang.

    Humor the newbie...

    Ooops. I shoulda knowed. And sorry for any delays, I am already multi-tasking and multi-stumbling this morning. I see neither device is variable volts/watts, which will narrow your options as far a flavour production goes. Sweetness is definitely something you will find needs an adjustable...

    Humor the newbie...

    Another sweet tooth! Moi aussi mon ami. Regarding the flavour drought, my taste buddies went dead for 4 very long months after I quit and even when they did drift back into existence it took several more months before I could taste certain things. I was heavy into TV Cough Drop for a while...

    What, if any, car charger to use for either Evic VTC Mini or iStickTC40W

    I bought a second X-Tar VP4 charger and permanently attached it to the shifter console and wired it directly to an unused relay circuit. Still then I rarely use it because even the best set-up can have a thermal runaway occur. It's always best to avoid charging in the car, but if you must do as...

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    When I first connected my brand new rx to my laptop, Windows 10 actually tried to download a driver, but the update completed before it could finish. I have been fiddling with the updater to see what's up but I think this is an issue with the OS not seeing the rx as more than a battery...

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    That bites BreSha... might have a suggestion but I need to try it out first. brb. Later: Sorry, but my idea was a bust. All I can do is repeat what works for me: In Windows, with the device on but not connected to the usb, open the UpdateWismec.exe file, then connect the usb and it should...

    On Temp Control

    haleysdadda, I find #26 Ti wound 6 times on a 3mm jig gives me a consistent .34 to .35Ω build time after time, but as mentioned earlier I wind tightly spaced micro-coils like one would using Kanthal. I take special care to "tune" the coil with my ceramic tweezers to get an evenly spaced and...

    Help choosing a new mod

    My battery cover practically needs to be blasted clear and has never even jiggled, but time will tell on several points as mentioned above. I think the reviewers weighed the beast but also as already mentioned it is not a huge issue as it feels good in the mitt, just not so much in a pocket or...

    Help choosing a new mod

    I can confirm the inconvenience of lugging an rx around in a pocket. It almost caved in a fender on a machine I leaned on and I tend to leave it on my desk most of the time and use a more "portable" device while working. Nutty low price for a treble-celled, 200 watt upgradable device though...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    Totally subjective and anecdotal, but I am finding the tcr numbers Jalcide compiled (cheers for that btw) for Ti1 and Ti2 render pretty much the same vape as with my Treebox (with slight differences owing to power, power and maybe power?) so there is some "cross-species" consistency — at least...

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    Well Tom, I haven't been using 3.0 long at all, but I already find the variable TCR a terrific new feature that appears to work well with my Ti builds. The memory function is great too as I use two different grades of Ti wire and can switch the TCR factor back and forth easily, so I would say it...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    I think you guessed it near the end of your post: "assuming they are authentic". ;) Plus there are myriad variables that can affect your results, for example: My best tester (Fluke) has a DC volts error range of +/- .03v. My guess is most chargers and devices have even greater drift.

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    I took my RX along on my travels and was very glad I did. A couple knocks though: the resistance lock should be listed as a resistance suggestion as it will change even when locked, and the 510 is perhaps the weakest link in the Reuleaux chain. But I am nevertheless very happy with it. I am...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    I appreciate you fellas persisting, but please rest assured I have looked at this thing seven ways to Sunday and probed around the edges for quite a while, but there was no protector on this screen. Seriously, I even used an extremely powerful scope used for inspecting hydraulic parts for...
