    Some questions concerning a custom mod I plan to build that uses a non-standard battery

    Well OK this is an interesting battery. It looks safe as it is an Li-FePO4 cell, which is the most stable of all the lithium types, but it has a low voltage output. Assuming you can get 2 or 3 of them (and can afford it) as spares then you could build a 1-cell mechmod, either tubemod or boxmod...

    Explaining nicotine calculations and vaping

    A quick primer on the various factors affecting nicotine delivery and effects in vaping: Attempting to calculate nicotine delivery factors

    Electronic Cigarettes yield 90.5% nicotine vapor compared to traditional cigarettes.

    The calcs given in post #1 are speculative because they refer to one case out of hundreds of possible variations on the multiple factors involved. There has been plenty of research on this issue and we also have resources on ECF that fully explain the issue, such as: Tobacco cigarette vs...

    Boiling Points

    The atomiser runs at around 70 degrees C in cigalike and ego-type heads. It goes higher in VV devices, and will go to around 200 C in hard-driven RBAs. So there is no steam from basic devices. There's none even from high-power devices because there are so many factors that act to cool the...

    Snip your squonk tube

    Courtesy of tomzgreat and muzichead - Don't forget to snip the end of your squonker feed tube where it hits the bottom of the bottle. Cut an angle on it, or an inverted V. Otherwise it just creates a vacuum seal on the bottom and blocks the feeder action. Get the snip.

    For those wondering why their Istick or other USB charged device is melting the charging port.

    We used to see loads of anguished cries that PCs and especially laptops had blown up when an ecig was plugged in a USB port. Sometimes the USB card was a daughter board or satellite board on the PC, not integral on the mainboard, so it could be replaced. But laptops that blew a USB port often...

    Worst nightmare of my life from vaping

    Time to close this thread so it can sink down, down to the bottom of the deep, dark pool that is the unexplainable strangeness of the internet.

    Adjusting 0% nicotine with DW for viscosity

    Interesting question. Can't help because we don't have an answer to this one on record, and I don't use 0 nic. However you can measure it yourself quite easily if you have the two different liquids, and then adjust the more viscous one so that it feeds better. It's done like this: paint...

    Moving To New Forum Software

    Private Messages In the new software it is not possible to organise PMs in folders. In other words if you have created separate folders to hold your PMs, as most people do with emails for example, then all those folders will be lost. All your PMs will be lumped into one giant Inbox. This could...

    Need Assistance

    You probably meant 4.17v? Sure, most chargers are set to around 4.2v - maybe 4.2v or 4.21v. Some go to 4.22v. There is no such thing as "the" recharge voltage, it's just a point on a graph. 4.21v is (generally agreed as) max charge vs acceptable service life, 4.17v is better service life vs...

    99 VG liquid vapable in low end devices?

    The name 70/30 for the PG/VG percentage, or 100% VG / all VG just refer to the base materials. They have nothing to do with with the final mix percentage and do not apply to the finished product. For example a "100% VG" eliquid might be (for example) 77.6% glycerol of unknown origin (so it...

    Need Assistance

    The low voltage point that you recharge a lithium ion cell (the rechargeables we use) is one of the factors that determine its service life: the number of recharges you get from a battery. In theory an IMR cell will do 500 recharges but this is not going to happen in reality, 200 would be a good...
