    Vaping Mail Show 'N' Tell: What did the Postman bring you today?

    Yup. Now, to be fair, there appears to be a lot of inconsistency with the T3. Phil Busardo has been trying ones from different sources. Some are great, some are meh, some are terrible. The ones I got have so far been pretty firmly in "meh" territory, and definitely have not been...

    Vaping Mail Show 'N' Tell: What did the Postman bring you today?

    Got a couple packages last night. From Canvape, I got some stuff I ordered (SmokTech 35mm tank cartos, another T2 and some heads), plus some review stuff (Vision Eternity, Vision Nanos, and M3 808 clearos). From Stinky I got 6 juices to review. Got 3 more packages inbound to arrive between...

    What's going on with this Vivi seal?

    I've just been talking with one of my viewers regarding something I've never seen before, and it could potentially be a problem -- I just don't know whose problem it is. He complained that when he put a certain juice in his Vivi Nova, it discoloured and disfigured the silicone seal over the...

    What is it with some vendors and poor reponse to enquiries?

    That's absurd. The level of customer service you can give is directly proportional to the size of the support staff you can afford versus the income you are getting in from sales. And by "level of customer support" I'm not talking about how well you are treated as a customer -- and I'm not...

    Joyetech eRoll Thoughts.

    Nit picking here, but: Technically they're a brand. They don't actually make anything. Mainly because at least one of the main dudes at Redds lives in Canada. (Not far from me, in fact.) Much of EV's line is made by Mad Maxx. But it's good stuff just the same. These two, plus V4L...

    I shot my cartomizer full of holes.

    I just posted a review of these. They didn't work out for me. Cheaply made, crunchy threads, soft steel that dulls after just a few punches. As for my punch-crazy experiment, looks like the carto lasted three days before it started tasting off. Which seems to be par for the course for these...

    Please I need help from Canadians

    You are correct, though the warmth may come at the expense of flavour and throat hit. Your tastes and preferences may vary though so that may be fine for you. Unfortunately nothing is going to work tremendously well with high VG juices. Pure VG juices are known as "carto killers" because...

    Please I need help from Canadians

    Happy to help! :) I have had the Evic misread the resistance of my cartomizers before, though it's never been off by quite that much. In all probability it is misreading for you. Try going through the menus to manually detect the resistance (Device -> AtomizerΩ) and see if it keeps...

    Please I need help from Canadians

    Most commonly, the condom method is used from the bottom (the end that screws on to the battery). Remove the rubber stopper from the end of the cartomizer (the one with the small hole to let vapor through). Fill the silicone cap about half-full with E-liquid, then slowly insert the cartomizer...

    I shot my cartomizer full of holes.

    Thanks for the Genny tips -- I've got a few things to try this weekend. I'd really like to get one going properly so I can finally review the damned DID clone. I'd feel like an idiot if I reviewed it without being able to make a proper coil on it.

    I shot my cartomizer full of holes.

    Well, keep in mind that I did this because I was frustrated precisely because it wasn't satisfying prior to just going mental punching holes. To be honest, the 35mm stubby SmokTechs from Canvape worked just as well or better right out of the box -- this was a move of desperation. That being...

    Vaping Mail Show 'N' Tell: What did the Postman bring you today?

    lol, now now. No jumping the queue. You can enter the contest like everyone else. :) I also just realized upon inspection that the original iTaste I was sent also now has eGo threads too, so that's kinda cool.

    I shot my cartomizer full of holes.

    If your destination was beating them to a pulp and shaming them, then you went exactly as far as you needed to. :) That's sort of what I've been thinking. Liquid takes longer to soak into these than most other cartos so it must be packed pretty densely. Yep, seems to suit it very well...

    Vaping Mail Show 'N' Tell: What did the Postman bring you today?

    MVPs, anyone? If you look closely, you might see these are the new versions with eGo threads. Plus there are some iClears and an iTaste Express kit. A few of these items will be used for a contest. :)

    I shot my cartomizer full of holes.

    It seems like 4 holes keeps the liquid pressure up on all sides of the carto, so there are no potentially dry spots inside. With the filler as seemingly packed as it is, it seems to need this additional pressure all around in order to get juice to all sides of the coil. At least, that's my...
