    Terminator/Nautilus/Choddy/Oddy Clone Pics, Tip,Tricks and Quirks

    Make sure the nut on the top cap is very tight, with the O-ring properly seated underneath. If that o-ring is not squashed enough it will not seal against the mouthpiece and will allow air into the top, which will in turn allow leakage at the bottom. Also, if you're trapping the NR wire under...

    Would you trust an e-cig made by a tobacco company?

    All you guys have to do is google "big tobacco third world" to see what these monsters are doing. You want to think they have learned from their mistakes in the past and are working to repair them, but in fact they are amplifying those calculated "mistakes" to take over unregulated parts of the...

    Would you trust an e-cig made by a tobacco company?

    My last reply goes to you, too. You are obviously unaware of what is really happening in the world by the hands of BT.

    Would you trust an e-cig made by a tobacco company?

    I think you should look into what they are doing right now in third world countries. They don't care what you do anymore because they are busy with a massive takeover of the rest of the world which already surpasses what they've accomplished here or any other well off place of free minded...

    Would you trust an e-cig made by a tobacco company?

    Sugar was added purely on the basis that it creates a highly addictive concoction when burned with tobacco. They did extensive research on rats in their own labs to come to this conclusion. The offending biproduct is called acetaldehyde and it's just one of the big reasons you used to freak out...

    Would you trust an e-cig made by a tobacco company?

    Since it would be over priced, no. Since it would follow the blu in design, no. Since it would cripple the consumer with proprietary parts everywhere, no. And purely based on principle, considering the research they've done to find ways to create stronger addiction like a ker-ack dealer... HECK...

    SmokTech The Natural - New mechanical device

    Someone mentioned using a rubber grommet or o-ring on the bottom to secure it. If dropping out is a big deal for someone, I think that is still a better option than the washer, especially since you can strip the chrome and have a completely brass contact where they connect.

    ok so my neighbor gave me a pull of a green smoke e-cig today

    Also, if you want to avoid the rush of confusion, there's no problem with starting on a green smoke if it works for you. We are naturally going to try and tell you the lessons we learned concerning devices and cost, before we upgraded. Sometimes you just need a simple cig replacement at first...

    ok so my neighbor gave me a pull of a green smoke e-cig today

    Haven't read all the replies but I just wanted to recommend Dekang Parliament e-liquid to start with, it's called Congress now for legal reasons. I started with 12 samples and that's the flavor I thought was most appealing, and although not much like a cig it's surprisingly similar to a...

    Guide to rebuildables?

    +1 on the drill bit method, it allows you to pull the wire super tight when making the connections. That has saved me from some hot spot headaches. Without the drill bit, it's a pain for me to keep the top coil from unraveling or pinching the wick depending on which way I wrap the wire on the...

    SmokTech The Natural - New mechanical device

    Forgot to mention I don't use the washer on the bottom post, mainly because it was causing stability issues on the post. I don't think you can get the full potential for adjustment at the bottom with that thing in place. Incidentally, I find the mod way easier to break down and set up when the...

    SmokTech The Natural - New mechanical device

    Here's the bottom cap with carto cap rubber in the center hole, this keeps IMR's tight while allowing room for protected batts. I tried various solid objects of different length but the size discrepancy in batteries of the same make and type, and the length of different atty adapters brought me...

    SmokTech The Natural - New mechanical device

    Grind the 510 collar down with a dremel grinding stone or a file. Add new air slots with a dremel cutting wheel, I also added a slot to the top of the positive post. After that is done you will most likely need to remove a few mm from the bottom of the positive post, and the top and bottom of...

    Vaporware: why we still don't know if e-cigarettes are safe - The Verge

    Honestly, I'm not trying to personally attack you or anything. I just want to express how it makes me as a vaper feel to see such an interest in it from the outside. I just want to be left alone. We're not hurting anyone, so why do they care, because it's not "normal"? I will never believe that...

    Looking into mechanical mods especially the Atmizoo roller other recommendations?

    No experience with it but I thought it looked pretty cool. For the price it looks like a good way into mechs, not much reason to scrutinize a Chinese mech mod in that category. It probably isn't going to match up performance wise with something made of quality meterial, but it doesn't take a...

    Vaporware: why we still don't know if e-cigarettes are safe - The Verge

    Apparently, you didn't lurk long enough to realize that it could be offensive to defend your call for regulation and conjuring of speculation by stating your use of OTC ecigs to hold you over till you can get back to your smokes. I'm glad your time in the theater and on the bus is more...

    Looking into mechanical mods especially the Atmizoo roller other recommendations?

    The main thing that sets mech mods apart from one another is their internal resistance. Unfortunately, not many manufacturers list this in the description, which is why I will save my big funds until they catch up and start doing that. Aside from that, it's all about versatility, material, the...

    Pictures of your setup

    The button is actually SS, no need to sand it. The lock ring around it is plated but is obviously not a part of the circuit.

    The Mashers, The Crank It Ups, The Noobs Who Won't Understand

    This is just like when I learned not to root my friends' android phones. From that point on, any one of the thousand little phone quirks was all my fault. Or like when my mom calls with her weekly computer problem, doesn't matter how many times I tell her Windows is not her browser, or her tower...
