    new to vaping and looking for a QUALITY unit . apollo, modern vapor...

    If your heart is set on an e-cig that's about the size of a cigarette, there is no better one than the Volt by Smokelessimage.com I normally suggest avoiding mini-cig types of e-cigs. They all have limitations imposed by the small battery and no manufacturer can get around the laws of physics...

    What will happen if I put lemon menthol into my lil mama tank?

    I thought the same thing when I used the metal tank on my Vivi Nova. But you get over it pretty quick. You can tell if the juice gets low enough to worry about. With some practice, you can gauge it by time and, in any event, it's not a big deal to pop the top off now and then to take a peek...

    Lava Tube

    The original Labatube/Vtube doesn't allow for resistance checking. The versions by other manufacturers have that function, but have eliminated the voltage locking feature. You can, however, check the battery's loaded voltage. Press the power button until you see the remaining voltage. Press...

    Have you actually saved any money yet?

    Someone brought up burn holes. No kidding!! Burns in carpets. Holes in furniture, car seats, car carpets and clothes. I have at least $500 or more worth of clothes that were bought for no other reason than to replace the identical piece of clothing with a burn hole from a cigarette. And, l...

    Too active ?

    You should fill the carto first. I guess you could do it while it's in the tank, but it's easier if it's not. The main thing is to make sure to fill it thoroughly. Suggestions on the Twist or Apollo? Get the Vtube if the 30% discount code is still in effect. It's no contest, especially...

    Too active ?

    I second the Vivi Nova V2 or V2.5. (I prefer the shorter V2 wicks). They don't leak. Ever! They're unbelievably leak free. They don't flood, no gurgling and they'll hold about 3-3.5ml. You don't have to fill or punch cartos and to fill them you just unscrew the cap and dump the juice in. To...

    newbie here - looking for suggestions?

    Are you using a juice calculator or just adding VG and/or water? With a juice caluclator, you can mix different strengths of nicotine, quantities of VG, water or PGA and figure out what you're doing to your nic and flavor level. It's better than trial and error.

    so many decisions..............................

    No. There aren't any Provari deals. Unless you get one on the classifieds (don't hold your breath) there's only one place to get a Provari and they don't have sales, AFAIK. You aren't going to get a better VV for $50 shipped than a Vtube. The rest of your $100 budget will be spent on cartos...

    Trying to figure out my first kgo

    Typo above ^^^^. It's the 1st fill that's critical.

    Lavatube just arrived.

    Haha... You got that right. A year's worth of steeping won't make it palatable to me. YMMV.

    Lavatube just arrived.

    You can rinse the clearomizer out with hot water. You probably should have done that first anyway. Clearomizers often contain some primer fluids or other oils left over from manufacturing. If you are using the standard dual coil carto with the DCT tank, you can expect to get poor results...

    What will happen if I put lemon menthol into my lil mama tank?

    If you have one of the polycarbonate Lil Momma tanks, I'd suggest not risking it. It doesn't take much citrus to crack them, especially if it's in there for a long time. I've had pineapple juice fog and crack a tank, but it took about 24 hours. Fortunately, you can buy replacement tanks so...

    Lava Tube

    Sorry to inform you but, with all due respect, you're not running a 1.5ohm DCC at 4.5-5.5 volts with an original LRider LT. Your LT is reducing your voltage to 3.7V in order to remain below the current limit of 2.5 amps. It isn't informing you that it's doing it, but regardless of what voltage...

    Lava Tube

    Honestly, 2 weeks for a replacement isn't exactly stellar C.S., unless you delayed in returning it. A lot of other vendors won't make you wait for them to receive a faulty unit before they send a replacement. With the prices volcano charges, they can afford to be quicker. If they want to...

    Lavatube just arrived.

    They usually do come with 70-80% charge. Lithium batteries don't store well at a lower, or higher, charge and the batts you get weren't made yesterday. Your vendor woldn't want to have 100% charged batteries on the shelf very long and if they charged them for you they'd have to wait for you to...

    problem with kgo

    There's far too many happy kGo vaping newbs around here for the fault to lie with the battery. Unless it's defective, I'd estimate the odds of the kGo being the culprit at less than zero. If it's putting out the voltage it's supposed to, no other fixed voltage 3.7V PV on the planet, regardless...

    Have you actually saved any money yet?

    If you buy the newest, greatest PV every month AND $1/ml gourmet juices AND go through cartos in a couple days AND smoked less than a pack or two a day, you might never catch up unless you count medical expenses. If you settle on a couple good devices, especially ones with replaceable...

    dual,top or bottom coil?

    I think what works best depends on the device, the juice and personal preference. It's really hard to say. In the vivi nova I'm preferring the short wicks, but I don't know how they would act in a smaller, carto-sized, device or with very thick liquid (altho I'm using 70%VG with them with good...

    dual,top or bottom coil?

    Under 4.2 volts? Forget dual coils. Thinner juice & warmer vape for given resistance = Top coil. Thicker juice & little cooler vape = Bottom coil. Top coils may be less prone to leaks, IME.

    Newbie here. Questions about Apollo Atomizers.

    Great! Nice upgrade. I've never heard anything bad about their C.S.
