    Dumb Puff Counters

    ...As a long time vaper you should know that battery duration depends on a lot of factors,type of coil,type of vaping style,wattage used...hard to believe you would make a statement like that. he he he.. i was going to add so that you could compare a set up on different devices to compare the...

    Dumb Puff Counters

    A simple counter that records the number of times a button is pressed is pretty much a useless feature. A counter that records the duration of time would be nice. Most people would be surprised at how little actual vaping time is available from a typical 18650 battery... 20 minutes anyone ?

    VG - Are they all safe for mixing or do some pose a health risk?

    My opinion, for what it's worth, is that if a U.S.P. product is rebottled in an average environment then any potential contaminants are going to be irrelevant to me as a vaper. I decant 5 litre containers into more user-friendly bottles and don't consider that the V.G. is spoiled (for what i use...

    That is why US Vape industry is on the edge of destruction right now

    Money. The UK has the national health service - Losing revenue from the sale of tobacco (Cigarettes: 16.5% of the retail price plus £4.90 on a packet of 20) is massively offset by the savings on health (approx £2.5 Billion a year on smoking related illness) It's always money. Every time. The...

    Trying Vaping After 45 Years of Smoking...Questions

    A diagnosis of COPD would make me think very carefully about inhaling anything other than air into my lungs. Have you tried not inhaling ? Draw vapour into the mouth/throat and release through the nose. I do this on occasion to give my lungs a break. If you HAVE to inhale something to get your...

    New vaper, feeling so rough :(

    I was also a roll-your-own smoker (Golden Virginia) for years when i switched to vaping. At that time products weren't as efficient as today and i started on 24mg 50/50 liquid in a clearomiser. Probably using 2-3ml a day. That's 10 x the nicotine that you are using. I recall feeling a bit rough...

    Chubby Gorilla Bottle Failure Mode

    ...Research suggests that all plastics may leach chemicals if they're scratched or heated... (random google snippit) I re-use bottles until they start showing creases at which point i discard (in an environmentally sensitive way, probably).

    How do you "create neagtive pressure"?

    Magic. Some tanks have it and some don't....Once produced, all atomiser tanks are given a sprinkle of 'anti-leak' dust prior to being boxed. The magic dust is not always available in the quantities required and so the manufacturers will occasionally skimp on it. Some even substitute this...

    How do you "create neagtive pressure"?

    'Negative pressure' is a term used by sloppy or ignorant people. It's either pressure or vacuum..... If i use a top fill tank and take the top off for an hour or two then liquid will find it's way out through the air holes. This is gravity at work. Putting the top on will stop this (mostly) -...

    Hallo iedereen, opnieuw beginnen vapen maar probleempje

    As with anything that uses resistance wire to generate heat, they can sometimes just stop working. The coil can melt, either or both of the 'legs' can come lose, the wire can short out if knocked. It's just one of those things that happen - thankfully not that often. With pre-made coils in pods...

    In defense of JUUL from a 10+ year ECF vet and vapor.. (semi-rant)

    I think that products like the JUUL have their place and are an easy way for smokers to transition to vaping. A lot of the negativity around high nicotine / low power devices is snobbery (something i too can be accused of - shame on me). I found my happy place with 12mg liquid at 16w but used...

    Does juice go bad? (Bought expired juice)

    I wonder if the FDA need a breakdown from fruit cocktail manufacturers when they decide to mix apple with mango or banana with apricot. I'm sure there are a lot of different reactions happening..... What about 50% pear, 10% cherry, 10% apple, 20% tangerine, 5% mango and 5% cane syrup ? What...

    Does juice go bad? (Bought expired juice)

    They could make any claim they wished. Without evidence though it's just propaganda. I could claim that the rapid change in colour signifies a rise in antioxidants therefore making the liquid beneficial to health and potentially reducing the aging process... That's as factual as a lot of...

    Does juice go bad? (Bought expired juice)

    Coincidently i made two bottles of 12mg 50/50 liquid for a friend literally yesterday. One was strawberry and pineapple flavour and one was blackcurrant and raspberry flavour. All flavourings are/were colourless. The strawberry blend has already turned red/orange and the blackcurrant remains...

    Does juice go bad? (Bought expired juice)

    True story - my mother told me about how she was often told to re-date meat products that were close to their 'use-by' dates (in a well-known UK supermarket in the 70's).... But i digress... The trouble with e-liquid is that some flavours are awful from the get-go, so it's hard to say if a two...

    Shortness of Breath

    ....'I went to the doctors and received a chest X-Ray and it came back normal chest'.... And you didn't speak to your doctor ? Did he refer you to a vaping forum ? Was the appointment done by mime ? :nah:

    Does anyone drip anymore?

    I don't notice any flavour advantage - maybe that's down to 35 years of smoking :( For those that do and who believe the inconvenience justifies the hassle - i salute you.

    Vtc6 21700 vs 30t 21700

    It's all down to how much you demand of a battery. With a higher wattage set-up the voltage sag can increase because the battery is struggling to supply the required current. The lower the amp rating of a cell, the more it will struggle. Lower wattage vaping will have the same issue but not as...

    Vtc6 21700 vs 30t 21700

    I've always found that a higher CDR cell will out-perform a higher mAh battery in vape devices. The battery sag on lower CDR (higher capacity) cells is the killer... In the olden days the Provari mods had a very useful feature. Fire the mod without an atomiser and read the battery voltage -...
