    Nicotine and orthostatic hypotension

    My non-professional guess is, it's the meds. Is it for blood pressure? My BP meds make me light-headed (well, I was told they could -- I'm prone to it already, and so I always stand up slowly anyway, but I was warned these could make it worse. HCTZ, is what they've got me on.)

    How long does it take for your mod to fully charge your 18650 battery?

    Well, you've already experienced the "other" part. Very poor performance. The voltage drop / "battery sag" when you apply a load is so great that the battery simply can't output the required energy, and you get a "low power" or "battery weak" or similar error from the device, much earlier than...

    Dmm

    The smallest ohm setting it has, I believe (200, in this case).

    Zippo and vape cotton

    With a ZIPPO?! Talk about "ewww..." I really liked having and using a Zippo when I was a smoker, but I had to stop using them because the fluid made the skin on my hands crack and peel. Petroleum allergy? I don't know, Vaseline doesn't do it, and I don't have occasion to handle lots of...

    identify this tank?

    Looks kind of, but not exactly like the Vaptio P-I TF tank? I dunno, maybe it's an older model, I suppose their website probably doesn't show anything but the latest, current devices. Premium Vape Tank | P-I TF Tank - Vaptio | E-cig & Vape Shop

    Innokin Giveaway! Ask Phil and Dimitris anything :)

    Phil, what's your "daily driver"? What do you vape on, when you're not testing or reviewing anything, but just vaping for your own self? Do you have a new favorite, or do you still prefer the old XL cartomizers? (Bonus points if it doesn't have your name on it, but if you say "the Ares/Zenith...

    Haven't built coils before need help

    I suppose that all depends. Are we talking a well-calibrated DNA mod vs. a $6 Chinese ohm-reader? I'd trust the mod. Or are we talking like a high-quality ohm-reader like a Fluke (DMM) or a USA Ohm Meters (standalone), versus a cloned Pico mod? In that case, I'd trust the meter. However, in...

    [3FVAPE Giveaway]Join to win VXV X RDA, Deadline June 26,2018

    1: I like the build deck, it looks easy to build on. 2: Geekvape Medusa is one I've been enjoying a lot, lately. 3: I really like the Billet Box, but can't justify the price tag. Even one of these clones is a little on the pricey side, for my budget, but they sure are pretty: SXK BB Box 60W...

    Tank stuck to mod

    Also want to make damn sure you don't press the button while you do this, lest the screwdriver's shaft cause a short between the center post and outer shell of the atomizer. I've never had anything that wouldn't come apart with some combination of rubber gloves, freezer time, and elbow grease...

    10 pcs Free XTAR PB2 Charger for You

    It won't discharge at more than 2.1A, so I suppose the highest-capacity ones you have would be best? The literature claims they don't even need to be matched or married, you can use any two (unprotected, 18650, flat-top, Li-ion) cells that you want. I put a pair of old (2 years, light-moderate...

    Another “first mech” thread

    Considered the Broadside mech? (there are clones available) - 18650, check - clean lines, check - suits 24mm RDA, check (I think it's actually 25mm diameter, but a .5mm "underhang" is hardly noticeable.) - it has a "clutch-style" switch but it's actually a really simple mechanism. - pinned...

    Geekvape Aegis Legend [Deleted]

    Some cords are charge-only and have no wires connected to the data pins. Do you get “doinks” using other connectables with that same cord? Are you using the one that came with the mod?
