    RDA My RDA's FINALLY arrived from fast tech! Here are my First builds ever!!

    Yes. Instead of having the leads in the same direction, wrap so they are perpendicular. You can then bend one 90 degrees so they are running in the same direction and are coming off the coil at the same place (top or bottom). Hard to explain in words, but here is a video of someone who does it...

    Anyone use Pelican boxes for travel?

    I use a 1060 as well. I rarely travel for less than a week at a time, and in my current configuration it holds an rDNA, tube mech, 2 tanks, and a 2X18650 case. There's still plenty of room and the foam makes it easy to switch things around. My next trip is for two weeks at a beach, so I'll...

    My Sigelei 150 Battery Testing Results (Many Batteries)

    Yeah, that's the $64,000 question. It's a YiHi board, so the info has to be out there. It's just not easy to find. My guess, and as you suspect as well, is it's related to voltage. Probably uses a formula before/during/after firing to measure how much the batteries are providing. This stuff gets...

    My Sigelei 150 Battery Testing Results (Many Batteries)

    Theoretically, yes. What the OP is doing is just providing some data from his usage. To further explain what he has done, the Sig shows the percentage of battery life remaining. Depending on what you're asking the mod to do, it might determine the batteries won't provide enough power and this is...

    Goliath V2 and other question...please help!

    I threw together a quick 4/3 coil and it was 0.33 ohms. Are you subtracting the resistance of your multimeter's leads when you measure resistance? A sloppy 3/2 came in at 0.26. You're still within the capabilities of a good 20A battery, but I'm a fan of reliable readings. *EDIT* Forgot to...

    Goliath V2 and other question...please help!

    How are you measuring resistance? Unless I misunderstand, to get a single coil resistance of 0.45 ohms using 3 wraps of 24ga kanthal would require a coil with a 5mm diameter. Also, why are you against building higher? Is there something about the Subtank that makes lower builds that much...

    ATTN: China! PLEASE stop with the clear coat!

    What brand (if known)? My brass V2 is from Cigreen and wasn't coated. A bit on the larger side, but I've never minded beefier mods. Thinking about picking up a copper too, because, well, because.

    First B&M experience...Can you say "Profit Margin"!

    I often hold my tongue in these threads, but wanted to add a few things. First and foremost, the OP knows wire can be purchased cheaper, yet still chooses to spend his money there. No one has been ripped off, no theft has occurred. Second, while the $1.00/ft wire might bring a margin of...

    Anyone try Charlie Noble?

    I'm ok with Treasure Island. I get much more of a cereal note to it than other brands. No Lemon Pledge with this one! If you're looking for a milky/creamy aspect, that's not what this one is about. Poseidon's Punch is no good for me. It has a certain note to it that either comes across as some...

    Where do you all get your DIY juice supplies from?

    Bull City has been getting more of my money lately, mostly because they tend to have more of the flavors I want in stock. All too often I'll go to Wizard Labs with a specific recipe and find that one of the ingredients is OOS. Service from both BCV and WL has always been exceptional, with all...

    REO CLONED

    Possibly not, but something many people fail to do is set appropriate expectations. I have one on the way, and expect it to be similar to a $25 Smokeless Owl, which, by the way, is a pretty fantastic $25 bottom feeder. It's worked flawlessly for me, and my only complaint has to do with the...

    Oh Lord Where Can I Find This???

    The more expensive clones are stainless, just like the original. The cheaper ones are aluminum.

    zero box mod dual 18650 100w?

    Sigelei, Pioneer4U, SMY, and Kamry are just a few of the companies making box mods 100 watts and greater. Is there a specific feature of a Zero you want?

    why do people build super low ohm on a vv or vw device?

    When using thicker gauge wire, my coils take a long time to get to temp. Increasing the wattage gets them to temp much faster. A 2mm ID coil,using 24ga kanthal, with a resistance of 0.3 ohms, is about 8 wraps per coil. That's a lot of metal, my friend. This is also when I like to plug the steam...

    42% OFF Fridays

    Overpriced, and even with the discount they could be higher priced than other vendors. I didn't peruse everything, but they also seem to carry a lot of older gear. I'd stick with the established vape vendors myself. What mod are you interested in ordering?

    If Ohm's Vapes juices are as great as their order fulfillment...

    But if Ohm's averaged about 300 orders/day over 4 days do you still think it would get to you that quickly? Lol I've just started to dig into my Ohm's that was mixed on 5/30. Started off with Red Monkey, which is right up my flavor alley. It's not quite my style though, as it tastes more like...

    ELiquid Harsh Issue

    Besides airing and aging, might I recommend mixing smaller batches? Start small until you have a recipe down pat, then you can ramp it up.

    Illumn has VTC5s in stock

    Not sure how to use this info. Maybe someone can explain where the code is. Here is what's printed on one of mine: K C5A1XXDO5T I won't say how many I ordered, but I ordered the number I did because I trust Illumn to either be selling legit VTC5s or be a class act if they aren't. I'm primarily...
