    Smjy doggystyle rta - is this right?

    This is how I position the coil on my Doggy (9-wrap SS316L, 2.5mm, 0.96Ω):

    Smjy doggystyle rta - is this right?

    Sometimes also called a chimney, or chamber. It's the part that covers over the coils so they don't get flooded with liquid. On the Doggy, when you unscrew the base from the tank, the bell is the metal part that's still attached inside the tank.

    Smjy doggystyle rta - is this right?

    If the coil legs touch the screw post on the top does it matter? No. "Leg length" is measured from the last point of contact. You'll want to make sure it doesn't touch the opposite post, but touching the post it comes off of is not a problem. In fact, the closer that "point of last contact"...

    Smjy doggystyle rta - is this right?

    Is it Kanthal? 1.9-ish ohms sounds about right for 10 wraps of 28g, if it's Kanthal (and that difference of .1 that you found between readings on different devices is not unexpected). I, too, would flip the coil over, though, so that the legs come off the bottom of the coil instead of off the...

    10 pcs Free XTAR PB2 Charger for You

    If it's only been a few minutes, and no one has viewed the post yet, it won't show a "last edit" timestamp. @Vinnybagodoughnuts see, I edited in this line. Did you get a notice?

    10 pcs Free XTAR PB2 Charger for You

    I think the reason people didn't get alerted has to do with the fact that @XTAR-Bear is a "registered supplier" account. They're not allowed to post outside their respective supplier forums, and I don't think they're allowed to initiate PM's with users either (that's why contest...

    10 pcs Free XTAR PB2 Charger for You

    @zoiDman I think once you view a post that has an alert associated with it (tag, quote, react), then the alert goes away since you've viewed the post. If you tag yourself in a post, then you immediately view the post after posting it, and so the alert becomes unnecessary. Did you get alerted...

    x = 125 www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=log2(24)+-+log2(3)+%3D+log5(x) Logs aren't my strong suit, is there another (complex or imaginary) solution too that WA didn't mention?

    Tired of the sexualized vaping adverts.

    Sex sells. At least they can't say it's marketed towards children. I'm pretty sure this site uses google or something for its ads. They are selected from a pool by an algorithm, based on your viewing habits; if you're seeing sexy, vape-related ads, they aren't necessarily hand-picked by the...

    Regulated : parallel vs more wraps

    If the mod can output the requested voltage, it's the same drain on the batteries, yes. But, some mods can't output more than the battery's native voltage (charge state). If you've got 2 cells at 3.5v each, that's 7v in series. At that charge level, the mod can't output more than 7 volts...

    Geekvape Aegis Legend [Deleted]

    I'm using SS Clapton coils in my Medusa RDTA on the Legend and so today I decided to try vaping it in TC mode for SS. It seems to not output more than 40w in TC mode, no matter how high I set the watts or temperature setting. Is that intended behavior? 40w is not enough to fire up these...

    Need Help with iStick Pico 75w

    Guys, we've already identified the problem. He's trying to use it as a pass-through device, plugged in with no battery. It doesn't work like that. The screen does come on, but it spits an error message when the fire button is pressed. If you have a Pico, you can try it yourself. The...

    Coils are getting hot I'm not firing

    Err...it shouldn't? I've used SS/Kanthal Claptons in TC and it works fine. The outer wrap wire of a Clapton hardly affects the current path at all. To understand why, think in terms not of resistance but of conductivity, the inverse (reciprocal) of resistance (S = 1/Ω). The outer wrap is...

    Fire Alarm

    When I was in the hospital for a lengthy stay (30 days) vaping was specifically disallowed ("use of tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, is prohibited on these premises"), however all the nurses (at least those to whom I voiced my opinions on the policy) said they "wouldn't tell anyone" if...

    Fire Alarm

    I vape in my house all the time and the only time the smoke alarm has ever gone off was when I blew the vapor directly into it from a few inches away. That said, I believe there are two “kinds” of alarm and one (optical I think, versus I-don’t-know how the other one works) is more sensitive and...

    Innokin Giveaway! Ask Phil and Dimitris anything :)

    Lithium batteries (internal or removable) will fare better on several shallow discharge cycles, than on fewer deeper cycles for the same total energy. They don't suffer the same "memory" issues as the Ni-Cd or NiMH cells from days of yore. These ain't your granddad's rechargeables. Go ahead...

    Need Help with iStick Pico 75w

    That would be your problem. Yes, you need a battery. I've tried it just now without a battery and it very briefly said something on the screen which may have been "atomizer short" before it switched to the "device too hot" error message.
