    Why all the hate for cloud chasers?

    Been using Apple products for 20+ years, professionally and personally. Along side with generic and brand-name PC's running every flavor of Windows from Win 3.1 on up. I have Linux servers and workstations at home. My decision of platform of choice is not a result of brainwashing - it's one of...

    Looking for a little advice re coil building

    For ideas on getting the coil build you want, use the Steam Engine Coil Tool - very handy for getting the target resistance you want with a variety of wire types and gauges. The Coil Master kit should have all the basics you need to get going with building. Start with basic builds and work your...

    are eleaf products junk?

    I've had two iStick TC60's for four months and had zero problems with either of them. They now have their place in usage with my other mods that have been purchased since I go them, but they've been used every day since I got them.

    To place on your battery, so that the color will match through the logo cutout on the battery door.

    Why all the hate for cloud chasers?

    Real or not, it's the perception that the actions of the "cloudz, brah!" group are negatively impacting the image of vaping on the whole. Not dissimilar from vaping being associated with the hipster crowd, it contains some perceived negative connotations as a trendy thing to do. I have nothing...

    Please don't be judgmental...

    Oh, definitely using "higgeldy piggeldy", at least 'round these parts.. Left unchecked, it could lead to other antiquated colloquialisms being used. It's the thin end of the wedge, the fox in the hen-house and unabated pandemonium waiting to break out!! Stamp this behavior out now, while there's...

    Well nuts.

    I've had a STM for several months and never once had a leaking problem with it. Leaking from the AFC holes indicates either a flooded coil or the coil is loose or over-tightened to the base. Check the o-ring on the coil to make sure it isn't damaged. No experience with the iStick 40's, sorry.

    Sub ohm vs ?????

    Yup, nickel coil. I have to agree with @Kaezziel - you can switch to Temp Control mode and continue with that coil, or change it out for one of the other coils. If you decide to stick with the nickel coil, let's make sure that you get the mod set up right and the coil resistance locked in on the...

    Joyetech cuboid looks used?

    You will get more vaping time before having to switch batteries with the Cuboid.. Whether it's worth it for that alone is up to you to decide. FWIW, I'm enjoying my Cuboid a lot.

    New Vaper NEED HELP PLEASE

    No, I'd try getting the 0.5Ω coil working for you first. Minor flooding and spitback can come from having the airflow control closed down too much or drawing (sucking) on it too hard, or a combination of both. Open the airflow all the way and blow lightly into the tank - this will help clear the...

    New Vaper NEED HELP PLEASE

    Do you know what coil you have installed, and what settings you are using on the mod? Sounds like you're under-powered for the coil or the coil is flooding and you're getting spitback - hot juice coming up the chimney and into your mouth.

    Sub ohm vs ?????

    The coil specs should be engraved on the side of the coil body. It will say "Ni200" or similar if it's the nickel coil.

    Sub ohm vs ?????

    0.15Ω coil is going to be Nickel - "NI" on the display.

    Sub ohm vs ?????

    Take the tank off and flip it over - the juice will stay in the top part of the tank. You can unscrew the tank base and not lose any juice and check/remove the coil.

    Sub ohm vs ?????

    Yeah, but I've seen it done where the vendor will swap out coils from their stock. I wouldn't start a newbie with TC, but that's just MHO..

    tanks

    The Uwell Crown will perform pretty well with the .3Ω coil at around 50W, which is near the limits of your mod. You'll be going through juice and batteries quickly though. Same would apply to the TFV4's. Kanger has the Clapton coils for the Subtank - I'd suggest trying those first, as they...

    Sub ohm vs ?????

    I would perhaps guess the vendor put an Ni coil in as part of the setup..

    Sub ohm vs ?????

    Normal - it uses the wattage setting to determine the volts needed.
