    Goblin Mini RTA review.

    The Goblin Mini V2 is coming...with top fill. FYI, the Goblin Mini V2 is the one in the box.

    Vape Forward Stout thread

    Naw, I think the tube was a great idea, a piece that cost pennies to include that gives the owner more options. And since I was able to start vaping with it right away, having gotten rid of my 26650s almost a year ago, it's already proven itself to me. I made a 0.038 TCR preset, and it's...

    Vape Forward Stout thread

    Mine showed up today. Immediately installed the 2.0 update and threw a known-good (and cold) Ti01 tank on it, locked resistance, and started vaping. Vape production compared to an IPV D2 or SX Mini M is not great, need to crank temps up over 520f to get close to what a Yihi board gives me at...

    Titanium wire, vaping and safety

    I prefer 26ga, but then again, these days I'm pretty much exclusively using dual coil tanks. So 26ga strikes a nice balance between coil mass/heat flux/power levels, RTA build deck size constraints, and my resistance targets. 24ga just isn't very practical for my applications, and since I...

    Vape Forward Stout thread

    First production run issues, mostly, and in comparison to some other mods the problem is minor (though still not a good thing if you're the owner, everything is relative). The far more expensive DNA200 devices experienced a lot more issues in the first several months (though once again, if...

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    You're assuming he knew about the workaround (people here didn't either, not right away). He experienced a malfunctioning device after the upgrade, and cautioning people about it early was the right thing to do.

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    Hate to break it to you, but there's almost certainly an order of magnitude more vapers casually following vaping news and reviewers on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter than there are hardcore types like us on a low-traffic specialty subforum on ECF. :)

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    Because people updating are not expecting problems, they're expecting improvements. Not everyone follows forums or geeks out as much as some of us here do, and not everyone is willing to put up with "workarounds", and some don't even know what a TCR is, they just use the preset SS mode and...

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    I don't see the drama queening here, I just see somebody giving a heads-up to people (and offering up solutions along with others in the commentary). And he's right, SS temp control doesn't work properly with the 3.0 update.

    Wismec Reuleaux RX 200 Firmware 3.0 - Just Released

    You're not the only one Tom. More details in the comments. Issac Gutierrez Correct the TCR mode isn't working like it should Like · Reply · 1 · 5 hrs Mike Vapes Yeah I tried 316 on tcr at 92 and on the ss preset and it temp protects right away.

    Vaporflask partnered with Wismec/Joyetech

    My biggest problem with "throat hit, Throat Hit, THROAT HIT" Busardo is that I've outgrown his vaping style (actually, it was never my vaping style, it was just the only style available back in the day, thank god the market has evolved). He's made it clear his reviews will be reverting back to...

    He claims he deliberately mangles the pronunciation just to get a reaction.

    @Firecrow the good news is, you can run a quality 18650 in the Stout just fine, especially at the power levels you prefer. And something else to consider, since so many people DO have positive experiences with 26650 battery life, is that this is a new device to you, and may fare even worse...

    Smok Guardian III - a 75w X Cube Mini stuffed in a pipe

    Looks like at least 26mm to me, judging by the 24.5mm TFV4 Micro Plus on it, and the battery compartment size, which has to fit an 18mm wide 18650. The TFV4 Micro Plus that comes with this kit (and the 22mm Micro) are totally different beasts than the TFV4/TFV4 Mini. Different (much smaller)...

    New Youde RTA the Bellus

    I generally run titanium contact coils, 8 wraps, but there's still ample room for spaced up to 10 wraps at the same ID (2.5mm or less). As for me, dry hit prevention isn't the reason I like temp control. It's all about the consistency of the vape.
