    Suggestion on low resistance coils

    Little of both Ea wire has a set resistance per foot. 1 inch of 28 and 1 inch of 30 will be 2 diff ohms. But I can make the piece of 28 longer (more wraps) and get the same as the piece of 30. Changing wire changes how fast it will get hot, how hot it will stay etc. Finding the coil you...

    I got a Fake Vision Battery That Could Blow Up?

    The real spinner ll is 25-35 bucks. Fasttech sells clones for 8-15 US dollars ( less for bulk), I would imagine at roughly 12 bucks american thats probably where the ebay seller is getting them. But in the end I have some clone egos that ran forever.

    Need advice on my Uwell Crown RBA

    what guage wire etc.? Rebuilding is about balance not raw power. Thats awfully low for a first attempt. Probably 4,5 wraps? My immediate guess is its just not enough wire mass for the power you set and its burning and not staying wet enough or wicking fast enough, too small a wick for the...

    Tired of cheap crap.

    Figured I would add this as it reminded me of this thread. A few days ago I ordered the top/ bottom caps on fasttech for a SS nemesis. 9 bucks. They are replacing the ones on a mod I bought some 2 years ago for 15 bucks. Good luck finding parts, at any price, for a years old regulated mod. And...

    I got a Fake Vision Battery That Could Blow Up?

    Most of the fake cells blowing up are removable type rechargables used under high power stress or shorting out. What happens is the cell inside the fakes isnt really rated to handle the load of the real cells. In most cases ego style/sealed batteries like yours when they are knock offs work...

    Where to buy ss 304 wire?

    In tc mode its not the resistance that matters, its the coefficient of the wire, or more simply how the wire changes resistance as it heats and cools. This tiny fluctuation is what is being monitored, and is why tc requires a very low resistance. While it should be close, changes in metal...

    Will self cleaning coils and self wicking coils ever exist?

    I use silica, dry burn every week or two, maybe replace the setup once a month. Think I spent 20 bucks total in 2015 for a 100 ft roll of wire and 30 ft of wick. You use gear specifically designed to eat consumables at a high rate you have to expect to replace stuff often. Kanger doesnt make...

    Mod getting extremely hot?

    Might want to check out the history of using direct connect mods with subtanks and wrong rda's. Very little to do with the batt because the mod/atty is grounding out. To the op, watch Susan's video. And feel very lucky, these direct connect mods have popped before from shorting out the atty...

    Till death do 18650s part

    Just to each other. I dont see where using a married pair in a diff mod would really matter.

    Who's still vaping 1.8ohm Kanthal?

    Usually on smaller powered/regulated mods 1.5 to 2 ohms works very well, I still have some rdas setup for egos/ provari in that range.

    Max Wattage for 28AWG Wire?

    Lol im loving some of these responses. 28g was defacto for years before 50+ watt mods rolled up. If its too hot maybe some rebuilding practice is in order. I use 28 like religion .8, .9 single in my KF .6 ish singles in drippers and around .45 to .55 w duals. Warm but not hot. Clouds...

    4 weeks! Cravings...

    In my first few months with the older devices I was as high as the 30+mg range sometimes. Vape as high as you need to get past it. After a couple good whacks you wont really care about a cigarette, and uh, raking the leaves, or starting dinner, or the cup of water you put in the microwave 20...

    23.85 for a Vamo 40watt good deal

    Heck, I got an original brass bamboo (first vamo) Tubes are loose, connector wobbles, button jiggles, all the chrome fell off (thats how I know its brass). But oddly enough moosh it all into shape and it fires up. Worth tossing inna drawer, even if you never vape it, it makes a good atty...

    I've had a dream

    You mean one of these? Actually genesis came along years ago. About early/mid 2014 people realized they could be set up as tank/auto fed drippers with soft wicks.

    Mechanical Mods in 2016: What's the point?

    Mmm I cant completely agree, but in many cases, people now use low gauges we never touched before. A lot of these coils now are so heavy 75 watts barely gets them warm. lol. Marketing to keep selling goods and reality almost never gel. People wanted huge coils, they got them, then they wanted...

    My treat for Christmas! What's yours??

    Heres something to ponder: A 30 ml bottle is approx 1 once for $15 or more. At 15 bucks per ounce that's $2000 ( give or take) per gallon. But A 55 gallon drum of pg or vg is approx 2000 bucks. So, imagine what it really cost to make a 30 ml bottle. Anyways merry Christmas and enjoy!

    Mod explosions

    Well without knowing real details noone can really understand what happened to your friend. In most cases the mech failure is never as simple as "it just blew up" Bad 510 on a hybrid top mod, shorted coils, wrong battery, bad mod design etc etc. There is an actual fault point somewhere. Either...

    Mechanical Mods in 2016: What's the point?

    "The point in using mech mods are the ease of use and the simplicity of the design" Fixed that for you.. Many of us have been on mechs for years, and never once thought about comps or .1 ohm coils. The real beauty of a mech is what can be done WITHOUT needing 50+ watts. I make thick clouds...
