    Do people judge you for vaping?

    It's all down to propaganda. A couple of years ago when the UK tabloids tried their hardest to demonise vaping i got a couple of snidey remarks. Since then vaping has been vindicated and actively encouraged by the UK government and the health service. Some people (who choose to believe whatever...

    Does anyone drip anymore?

    Never. When there was no choice i was forced to do it. Now there is no need to i cannot think of any reason why anyone would choose to. I probably have dozens of dripping atomisers in a box in the loft and i sincerely hope i never have to go looking for them. To me it's like people saying they...

    Is it easy to get a compatible drip tip at a local vape shop?

    After my failure to procure a drip tip whilst on holiday i bought a bag of 50 from FT and placed one in every pocket of my clothes/jackets and a couple in every case and bag i own... I vowed never to be at the mercy of ineptitude and ignorance ever again (at least as far as vaping goes) :D

    Is it easy to get a compatible drip tip at a local vape shop?

    Coincidently i was in Florida in 2019 and tried to purchase a drip tip from various B&M stores. The reactions of the staff varied from 'we don't do those' to 'what's a drip tip'.... Needless to say i ended up vaping directly from the tank until i could get back to my supplies. Not something i...

    Is This a Dumb Question?

    If the coils not been used then it can't have 'burn out'. If the coil has been used then the user (hopefully you) should know if it's off.... Unless you mean is there any way to tell if a coil will work properly before being used ? Not really other than checking the resistance. It's one of the...

    Nicotine question--

    No-one should be even thinking about making their own liquid until they can tell the difference between 0.6% and 6%. The amount of nicotine in a given liquid is expressed as mg/ml OR as a percentage. 20mg/ml liquid is 2%, not 20%.. Anyone who cannot distinguish - or cannot percieve the...

    Inhale Or Puff?

    I do both. Inhale into the lungs and occasionally just into my throat and then out through the nose. I also hate when people talk about a 'buzz' from vaping - i immediately think of either a hippie or a narc..... (maybe showing my age a little there). I use vaping as an alternative to smoking...

    Kanthal or Ss316

    Yes, i get your point (and i prefer beer in a glass too). But if i pour the beer from a can into a glass then the beer still came from a can. Yet it tastes better than drinking from that can..The only difference is that my mouth doesn't come into contact with the can. By comparison we don't lick...

    Kanthal or Ss316

    I'm still trying to wrap my head around a percieved change in flavour when the coil material is changed. If every other parameter is the same then, logically, it makes no sense. Unless of course something other than the heating element is different - perhaps thicker wire with more surface area...

    Kanthal or Ss316

    I must confess that i cannot tell the difference between any wires. There is no increase or decrease in taste when i switch coil material, only when i switch wicking materials, air flow, chamber size, wattage, coil size / dimensions or drip tip. I applaud anyone who can genuinely state that the...

    Hello.. I have some questions if it's okay ?

    Being an avid pacifist (which, let's face it , is extremely hard in a world full of people who really would benefit from a hit) i do not condone hitting in any way or form. So to answer your question - i do not do any hits. Ever. I generally vape around 5-6ml of 12mg liquid a day - just the...

    Zenith tank and coils

    Power, airflow, drip-tip, liquid viscosity, dimensions of atomiser... Power is an obvious one - adjust up and down to suit. Airflow can make a big difference to the flavour, try reducing to the least airflow that works. Drip-tip dimensions can make a difference to percieved flavour - smaller...

    Bonus! Check this video and you might win sth good from us.

    Too fast and the actors are too young (and hairy). It's a good device with a pedigree, I think i would have preferred more focus on the mod/tank and less on the actors. It looks like you are selling hair product as much as a vaping device :D

    Now disposable vape seem to be more and more popular, want to give it a try

    It's true i cannot deny. I doubt many of them where made with rechargeable lithium cells though ;) . . . Next time i'll be more specific -'a pipe that could be used multiple times - but the owner, for convenience and without regard for the environment, chooses to discard in the Thames after one...

    Now disposable vape seem to be more and more popular, want to give it a try

    Why buy a rechargeable battery to throw it away after one use ? I see zero benefit to anyone except the extremely lazy and the most selfish of humans... It's the equivalent of a pipe smoker using a new pipe every time they fancy a smoke. Needless waste. There are a plethora of small, simple to...

    Can you freeze nicotine?

    It's mainly edible products that shouldn't be defrosted and re-frozen. I can see no reason why nicotine in solution couldn't be - i've thawed out a litre bottle to decant 100mls and then placed the bottle back in the freezer (multiple times, obviously) and so far, touch wood, it hasn't made me...

    What I'm missunderstanding about my vaper?

    I bought a Voopoo Drag X plus and the issue of no boost is a real problem for 'high' resistance vapers. If i use a 1.2 ohm coil the mod maxes out at around 12 watts. 12 watts (i had to repeat that because it is close to unbelievable)... Advertising the device as a 100w output is misleading at...

    how much to keep mixed up and ready to go

    I make myDIY RY2 in batches of 1000ml normally around 6 months before i need it. It's kept at room temperature. Once i start using a new batch i get around 9 months out of the litre. I guess that means that i am vaping liquid well over a year old from when first mixed. I would probably hate the...

    The case for Pods ?

    I've always disliked pods but came across a site selling the Nautlus Prime at half price. So i bought one.... Takes standard nautilus coils and has a built-in battery (2000mAh i think), air flow control and adjustable wattage. Gave it a try and realised that this was a perfect pocketable MTL...
