    Why my mage rta always leak?

    A tank leaking after a refill is, as stated, usually caused by tightening down the top and causing pressure. After that, a leaking tank is caused by a bad seal. Wicking doesn't cause it. It shouldn't leak even with no wick in it. I"m not familiar with your RTA, but if it's similar to a Kayfun...

    New Calculator to try

    In the ingredients editor you set the percentage of pg/vg in your nicotine and the level of nicotine, say 100mg. Give it a name, like 100nic. Then when you mix your recipe you select the 100nic in the drop down on the left, set pg and vg ratio just below, set the desired nic level in the upper...

    New Calculator to try

    The only warnings I've seen are when you can't achieve the pg/vg ratio you set because of the pg in the nicotine and the flavors. If your nic is 50/50 and you're adding 25% flavor, you will get a warning if you're trying for 70%vg, because you can't do it. Even with a pure vg nic, you can't go...

    New Calculator to try

    In the ingredient section you simply identify it as nicotine and set your ratio. I assume this is just a nicotine mix. Seems pretty obvious. Perhaps I'm missing something.

    Still Confused

    Vaping will not replace your cigarettes or reduce the urge to smoke. It simply supplies nicotine so you don't go squirrely, same as gum or patches. But you're not getting the rest of the stuff cigarettes give you, so you will crave them. It passes. Just vape through it and think of something...

    Windsor Border Crossing

    It's only the juice that's a problem and it's not technically illegal, just banned by Health Canada. The juice MIGHT be taken away depending on which border agent you run into. However, I cross regularly with my hardware and a couple of bottles of juice and never had a problem. If they don't...

    Where to find good recipies?

    That's the best way. Go to the "site which shall not be named" and pick out 3 or 4 recipes that sound good. You can click on the "ratings" header and see the top rated ones. Go with those for a start and you'll probably have the most popular flavors. After that, you'll just need a couple here...

    Comments needed - popcorn lung AGAIN!

    Whenever someone mentions popcorn lung, just mention that the culprit is at least 100x higher in tobacco smoke than vapor and then ask them how many smokers they've EVER heard of in their lifetime who contracted popcorn lung. That usually shuts them up.

    Scare Stories Backfire

    For a perfect example of how ANYTHING can be made to sound bad while sticking strictly to the truth, just google dihydrogen monoxide. You have to read past the sensationalist headlines.

    Kayfun V5 leaking... Problem solved!

    If you get flooding and leaking, it's almost always the small o-ring inside the top cap. It has to seal around the chimney AND inside the top cap, so it has to be right. The rest of the 0-rings don't matter that much. At the bottom they're just for juice shut off and and in the tank sides...

    How come I'm burning through Juice

    If you can wrap a wire around a drill bit, you can make your own coils. It really is just about that simple. Also, don't beat yourself up about the wicking. If you had leaking, it's because you didn't have a good seal on the tank. Get a good seal and how you wick it won't matter. How you wick...

    How come I'm burning through Juice

    It's no accident. I see it all the time. A newbie goes into vape shop to try out this vaping thing and the unscrupulous owner sets them up with a sub-ohm kit because they know they'll be selling them a lot of juice. You can almost see them rubbing their hands and salivating. This is why...

    New & nervous

    24mg is way too much for a .5 ohm coil for most people. You're going to be disappointed with your kit based on that because it's going to be so harsh on your throat. Make sure you try juice with less nicotine before deciding you don't like vaping. 6mg would be a good place to start.

    More Susceptible to Viruses since Vaping

    Funny how anecdotal evidence can conflict. I was convinced that vaping REDUCED the number of times I got sick. It's been over a year for me and I haven't had a cold or flu since I started. I thought for sure I was going to catch something a couple of months ago when everyone I worked with and...

    Is There An RTA That Doesn't Leak?

    Since the only o-ring in the tank section that actually acts as an o-ring, rather than a gasket, is in the middle of the top cap, that's your best suspect to start with. It might even be that the chimney is too short for the glass and it's not reaching the o-ring. I've seen that. Take off the...

    No need to apologize. It's usually me that's wrong. No worries.

    Is There An RTA That Doesn't Leak?

    Well, I guess we can all learn something. How do I set it to private? Hmmm....looks like I didn't publish it. Let me know if it works now

    Is There An RTA That Doesn't Leak?

    Sigh..........In the spirit of trying to be helpful instead of vindictive, and in the interest of educating the ignorant, I present the following with water, no wick and NO DECK!! This is my Kayfun Mini V3 Plus. Watch what happens at the end when I remove the top cap and break the seal.
