    I'm bored with vaping...

    I have some, and recommend it to folks that are looking for a more cigarette-like experience.

    I'm bored with vaping...

    Not quitting, just not nearly as enthusiastic as I was just a couple of years ago. I think I have reached my saturation point, as with many of my other hobbies. There was a time not that long ago that I was seriously infatuated (consumed) with vaping, anxiously awaiting the next new toy...

    Am I allowed to write about my (positive) IQOS experience?

    Thanks for the review. I must be one of the targets for this product: dual user (3 butts per day plus vaping) for almost 6 years. If I can substitute the IQOS for those three cigs it's further harm reduction for me. I'm getting one as soon as available.

    Why isn't this a thing?

    Well, it would help to know what atomizers you are having trouble with. I get leaks on some of my squonking RDAs when I over-squonk, but that's my problem and requires a modification of technique. I also had lots of (more) leaks when I used RTAs. I found that many were very sensitive to the...

    Try and change my mind...

    Nope. :p I mainly use pod mods at work, where I don't need huge juice or battery capacity, and my vaping consists of 4-5 sessions a frenetic chain-vaping (I probably look like the guy in Refer Madness) or when I'm running a quick errand or walking the dog - situations where I won't be out long...

    I need help...again.

    I respect mooch and know that he is regarded as the battery "god", however he is just being cautious - and rightly so. Even with a single battery you should always leave some headroom, which is the main take-away from his lesson on parallel batteries in his video above. You wouldn't drive a 20a...

    I need help...again.

    Don't know if it has been mentioned yet, with regard to series batteries: ALWAYS use "married" pairs of batteries - same age and brand. Never pair on older, used battery with a new battery. And critically important: The max continuous discharge rate of batteries in series is equal to that of...

    Who could help me out?

    Personal taste and application, really. I use both, and have spools of single wire kanthal, stainless steel, and nichrome along with spools of clapton in kanthal and stainless. Then there's the assortment kits of pre-made exotic muti-strand coils (SS and kanthal) in my tool box. I use...

    Pads are simple for a beginner. Once you figure out the width of the strip that works it is very easy to repeat.

    Who could help me out?

    Agreed. I watched a bunch of youtube videos and read a lot of posts in the rayon thread here at ECF. Lots of warnings about making it real tight and thinning the tails and this and that, etc, etc - but when I actually tried it I just made it snugger (than cotton) in the coil, never thinned the...

    Nudge 22 owners...

    This. If the coil is too hot, or wicked too loosely I get some spitback. I haven't had any (or very little) with the supplied coils wicked tightly with rayon.

    Nudge 22 owners...

    Yes. I might try the reduced airflow cap, though I prefer more open. I tried both when I got the first Nudge and settled on cap with the larger holes. Might be worth a try on the smaller holes, now that I've used the other for a bit and see what happens. Thanks. I still like the Nudge but do...

    Vandy Vape Pulse 80 watt now 90 watt X

    It's called cynicism, and describes me to a "T". I especially agree, since the battery life on both of my Pulse 80 mods is abysmal using both 18650 and 20700 batteries.

    Nah - It's buried in there - and bears repeating. :)

    Is RY4 a well known flavor?

    Not only that, the flavors change often. Whenever I found a flavor at a vape shop that I liked it would be available for several months and then disappear, to be replaced by the newer, trendier flavor - which is why I DIY my juice now.

    Who could help me out?

    Yep - which is why I recommended organic cotton balls. :) You may try other cotton or rayon, and find something that you like better. It may be Swag, Cotton Bacon, or something else. Certainly the packaged cotton is marketed expressly for vapers, and simple to use, but in the end regular old...

    Who could help me out?

    Really - any cotton will work to get you started. There was a time when, other than silica wick, all that was available was cotton balls. I started with organic cotton balls, tried cotton bacon, native cotton, ko-gen-do, and rayon among others. I mainly use rayon now as it lasts longer than...
