    Anyone tried working with Tobacco companies rather than against them?

    I'm just wondering which tobacco company you work for? I don't hate em but I don't want em back in my life. It would be like a former alcoholic asking Coors to start making a cola or fruit drink so he or she can still give them his money. Piss on that. You are entitled to your opinion and can...

    Dumb question from a newbie :)

    A buddy of mine told me that the way he tests his attys is with a multimeter. You would set it to ohms and put the black lead on the threads and the red lead on the end/tip where it screws in. As time goes by the resistance will get higher due to gunk building up. So according to him, once his 2...

    mah's, ohm's, volts OH MY! HELP!

    The chart is the way to go but a basic rule of thumb that I use is to add 2 to the oms to get the volts. It's not exact but, for instance, a lr atty like your 1.6 I'd vape at around 3.6 to 4 volts. Any higher and I find I get dry hits because it burns the juice faster than it can wick up. 2 ohms...

    Vivi nova rewicking problem

    Looks like that wire has a resistance of 4.15 ohms per foot or about .34 per inch. You are only using about 2 inches of wire per head so around .7 ohms. If you get the 32awg kanthal a 5 wrap wick should produce about 2 ohms. I think its resistance is around .8 ohms per inch. Here's a link to my...

    Anyone Using ECF Android App?

    I can't help with that one (iPhone) but I can offer an alternative. I use Tapatalk on my phone and it's a great app. I just checked and it is available on android. It's not free but it does work well. Costs $2.99 I think. Anyway it's something to think about. Hope this helps.

    Hello ECF! Teach Me!

    A great place for recipes is right here on ECF! There are lots in the DIY sub forum. Also the e-juice me up application has quite a few pre loaded for you to try. Finally a lot of the popular flavors from TFA are pre mixed like banana cream or cheesecake w/graham cracker crust. With those you...

    First mod and I have a question...

    Oh ok. Thanks for the info. So will it be ok to top it off daily? I'm not such a heavy vaper so it would probably be only about half depleted.

    Hello ECF! Teach Me!

    I thought I'd toss in my two cents on the DIY juice. First off its surprisingly easy with the mix calculators available online. I use e-juice me up (I'd post a link but I'm on my phone). myfreedomsmokes.com is my spot for DIY nic liquid and supplies. They have great prices. They also sell TFA...

    First mod and I have a question...

    Ok so I got my first mod today. I wanted to ease into it so I got a Bolt with the 18650 extension. My question is about charging the battery. I got the protected aw 2200 mah (black and silver). Will this battery stop working when it gets to the low voltage limit like the ego batteries I'm used...

    General Forum Question

    Yea I realized that a bit later. My excitement was a tad premature. I'm wondering if the color of the little envelope icon (blue, pink) might mean something. Or rather I know it means something, just not what.

    So glad to find this forum!

    Welcome! You are in the right place as I do believe the sum of ecig knowledge is contained on this website. Lol. As for the singing, while far from professional, I know exactly what you mean. After 10 months I can sing songs I haven't been able to sing properly in years. Quitting analogs is the...

    Seriously what can I do to make this Vivi Nova work

    I've noticed that the common thread on vivi nova wicking posts is high vg. Unless you are allergic to pg I would suggest limiting your vg to a 70pg/30vg mix. Also imo a few drops of water won't help. To get your 70% vg down far enough to help you would need to add around 30% water which will...

    General Forum Question

    Thanks for the quick replies! Unfortunately the settings tip didn't help unless I'm missing something obvious. It controls the order of the posts inside a specific thread and I'm looking to control the order in the sub-forum. For example, when I click on the new members forum I see this thread...

    General Forum Question

    Ive searched all through the various settings for the forum and haven't found an answer so I figured I'd ask you guys, is there a way to change how the threads in a forum are posted? What I mean is the default seems to be by the latest post in a thread but I would like to have them displayed in...

    today is the day!!!

    Those ego tank caps are a pain to get off. They sell soft rubber replacement caps that are easy to remove and imo seal around the spike better lessening the chance of leaks. As for the battery, every one I've ever ordered has come charged. These batteries hold a charge a long time when stored...
