    Can y'all help a fool find a wide drip tip? (Post your favorite drip tip here!)

    You will have a hard time finding a wide I.D Pyrex tip. In order to keep the strength up they walls are like 3mm + thick. I find more Brass, stainless steel and Delrin than any others. I have a Pyrex type and the hole is like 5-6mm at best. I've found a boatload of the big ones on...

    Need a battery for Magneto Clone NiMH

    NiMh's are not suited to vaping. Nickle Metal Hydride is just a big brother to a Nicad battery. You don't really want to use them as they have more problems with memory effect. NiMh is not as bad as Nicad but still not as good as Lion batteries.

    tempered glass vs pyrex glass

    Rather than me taking credit for this answer I'll give you the link. Looks like Pyrex is not always Pyrex now. Is pyrex just tempered glass, or is there anything else in ...

    black particals in my tank

    I'm assuming by BTM you are saying bottom feed. I find that sweet and dark juices seem to gunk up stuff. I'm guessing that you have LOL backwash from the wick. Just rinse out the tank and if needed replace the head/wick.

    How can you tell if you have a bad battery?

    It sounds as if that battery is bad. Most of those operate around 3.7 volts. There is an electronic test you can do but it takes a test bed and a really good meter. Like Rolygate said I'd go to an IMR. Oh and don't buy a battery with fire) any where in the name. Especially Ultafire. I...

    Advice on securing a positive center post? (post RDA swap, slight looseness)

    On the glue was talking about securing the two screw block back in place not the whole assy.

    Advice on securing a positive center post? (post RDA swap, slight looseness)

    You need to get a new insulator. Kidney puncher.com has some that may work. As far as securing the Mount you may be able to use something like JB weld but that is not a food grade glue so you need to know that. The other thing you may be able to do is to take the piece that goes up into the...

    Best 18650 battery for a mechanical mod

    First off i would not buy any of the Fasttech batteries. Good advise i got a long time back was never buy a battery with the name FIRE in it. Ultrafire being the worst. Many resellers repackage batteries and overstate the capacity. Some to the point of being ridiculous. I prefer Sony...

    how to measure exact measurements for DIY?

    Oh the reason to not use a nic base above 36mg per ml is that if you make a mistake the results will not be that bad.

    how to measure exact measurements for DIY?

    You need to DO MORE HOMEWORK than just this. I will answer your question but please read the whole thing. There are several way Graduated cylinders or Syringes are what I use for liquids. Always use the smallest you can to make a measurement. Use say a 1ml device to measure less than 1ml...

    Coil Resistance

    6 months on a coil. They are not designed to last that long. Could the resistance increase yep. You need to change coils more often. While the coil itself is probably fine the wick has got to be nasty by now.

    Single or Dual coil

    Oh forgot. IF you do a good job you probably will only need one coil. But if you become what I call a cloud freek LOL you may want to do two.. FYI some folks have done 4 or more coils in one RBA.

    Oh the link at the bottom shows what i am talking about in a graphic form.

    Single or Dual coil

    Ok first we must explain some electronics. Namely ohms law. Single coil is simple you have a single coil and the resistance of it is what it is. But DUAL coils are in parallel and to get a known total resistance you have to do this. It it easy if both coils are the same resistance. Simply...

    VV question : dna30 and 30amp 18650 battery

    The most common way of doing this is converting the DC into an AC and stepping it up with a transformer then they can convert it back to a higher DC voltage and they can vary it buy using either Pulse width modulation or an adj. voltage regulator or adjust the amplitude of the AC. I'm only...

    Fed up with aerotank!!!

    Center pin on your MVP sounds like it's gotten pressed in to far. Two things to try. Using a small screwdriver pry on the center pin of the MVP and move around the pin. Oh a paper clip will work too. Second thing to try is a 510-510 adapter. Most of them have a longer center pin and i have...

    Proverbial "best" mech mod available? - Seeking advise.

    One word COPPER. Get a copper mod. With the new 26650 batteries taking over now i'd consider them if size is not an issue. I have a Copper Hades on order and some of the batteries will handle 50amps peak burst current. There is also the Black copper Stingray which can be found in 26650 or...

    Copper Nemesis clone won't fire!!

    LOL what tmcase said. LOL Also if you have a VOM volt ohm meter you can see if your getting voltage to the connector on top of the nemesis. If you are then your center pins are not making a connection. Solutions if the pin is adjustable on the atomizer adjust it. If not sometimes a 510 to...

    Low ohm vs Higher ohm Clear omizer. Pro's & Con's ? ? Help

    IME it's good to keep the resistance (ohm) in the 1.5-2 ohm range if you have several kinds of PV's. Mechs don't care some much and all you do is match the resistance with the voltage 3.5-4.2 volts to get the wattage you want. With VW's watts are watts pretty much except for a couple of...
