    Weak vapor! I think Ive had enough....

    My thinking is...never toss an atty that isn't cold. Cold=dead, warm with no vapor=dirty/flooded. So before you toss it. Try this... http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/tips-tricks/69834-my-atty-resurrection-method.html#post1032570 (or any of the other methods that can be found on the...

    Atomisers short life span

    Boeriemore, Try this method... http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/tips-tricks/69834-my-atty-resurrection-method.html#post1032570 Let me know if it works for you. Works for me every time. As for the '1 ohm' thing, you might want to check your meter. An atty that reads one ohm will...

    Weak vapor! I think Ive had enough....

    I have noticed that some 510 attys that I have gotten recently are higher resistance than they should be. It could be that your dad got attys that are the correct resistance for a 510 (2.5ohm), and you got one of the higher ohm attys (3.2-3.5ohm). The few that I have that are the higher ohm...

    My Mother is a Smoker

    Welcome Oreodoom! You will get lots of different answers on which is the 'best' starter. I say that it is either the 510 or the KR808. The 510 is a three piece (battery, atomizer, cart) and the KR808 is a two piece (battery, cartomizer). I think the vapor and hit is much better with the...

    Need Info on a 5V

    A 900mAh batt is not going to get you through 2 days. The longest a 900mAh batt will last me is about 3/4 of the day. Also, as stated above, if it does run 5V (IDK if it does or not) then you can cut that runtime in half. I prefer a mod that uses an 18650 3000mAh batt. Then you get 3-4 days...

    What does 5-6V do over 3.7 -4v (more vape? more throat hit?)

    5V / 6V will give a harder throat hit and produce more vapor than 3.7V batts. As for the BB (Big Battery) mods that will do it, there are many (too many to mention them all). The Chuck, SilverBullet, and GG just to name a few of the most popular. Most of the BB mods are made to take a 510...

    Do Not Order "Free Trials"!!!

    Welcome to the forum timmah! I also agree that the 'up side' of these places is that they are paying for the advertising that is getting the word out that e-cigs even exist. I know many of the ppl here are those that heard an ad on the radio or saw and ad in the paper. Then went to google to...

    Where do I get a HV atty for a 510

    Umm. 'tis true. You might want to check your meter or get some new batts if you are getting 3.8 right off the charger. I re-charge mine when they get down to 3.8V :rolleyes: (and that's after a couple days in my Chuck) Although I do agree with you on the consistency of using a regulator. I...

    Introduction

    Welcome TheMetal! If you are trying to build your posts, just tell a little more about yourself like where you're from, when you started vaping, why you stopped, etc. (over the course of a few posts, of course;).)

    Where do I get a HV atty for a 510

    Standard 510 should be 2.5 ohm. I have been seeing some lately that are running 3.2, but they don't hit very well at all on 3.7V. The 3.2ohm attys will be a lot safer to run at 6V though. The 801, 901 and cartos all run in the high 3ohm range which is why they are all good at 6V and not so...

    Where do I get a HV atty for a 510

    Where do I get a HV atty for a 510

    Kurt, 510 attys will blow at 6V if you don't take care (keep wet, short hits, etc), but at 5V they are a lot less 'on the edge'. 5V is a really nice vape on a 510. The BB mods that use 18650's and the like are all running 4.2V anyway so 5V is not a huge leap up. The biggest problem with 5V is...

    My Atty Resurrection Method

    Shortstuff116, seems like a good method, but you really don't need to dry overnight. Like I said in the OP...built in dryer ;) I used to dry mine in the oven at about 200F. Then I realized that was a little excessive and unnecessary. I figured, why wait, just blow out as much water as you...

    Did a flavor never work for you?

    Dekang DrPepper. Almost threw that atty away. Took days to get that taste out. oh yeah, and MsT's Bacon/Maple :nah: Not my thing.

    Where do I get a HV atty for a 510

    Mine's a Dane (he just looks like a wiemar), so I have no problem with 'calm'. He's content laying around on the couch all day. :) He does get that occasional 'burst' (like when he comes in from being out in the rain) and then it is complete havoc for about 5 minutes. :P You can see my...

    Tea bag question?

    Each one has to be hand rolled by a Mandelbaum :lol: Seriously though, I still just use the walmart polyfill, only I just cut a small 'cap' of poly (about a 1/2 inch long) and then fill the cart with juice and cap it with the poly. This leaves 80% of the cart reservoir open to hold juice, and...

    Where do I get a HV atty for a 510

    Nhaler (US) Eastmall (China) You don't really need HV attys for 5V though. 5V is a good voltage for standard 510s The HV attys come in a couple different resistances. (I think) 4.2ohm and 5.2 ohm (i could be off on that) 4.2ohm is just not going to be very good at 5V (IMO). The HV attys...

    Tea bag question?

    Thanks for making my point M&M :lol: See, mojosato, you can put just about anything in there. ;) (as long as it is non-toxic)

    Tea bag question?

    The pyrimids are what the PTB mod calls for, but you can use just about anything absorbent. I have tried regular tea bag, coffee filters, even paper towel. They all seem to work slightly differently. I found that the coffee filter and papertowel both wick excellently, but when it's all done...
