    *** The Official JR Custom Turnings thread ***

    Yeah, I've been reading the thread with great interest. It's funny too because I recall a hybrid atomizer that was part of a mod some time back (probably over a year ago) that contained porous ceramic as a reservoir, so I guess with the recent interest in Genesis rebuildables going more...

    Joyetech eVic recall

    Mine is a V2 and doesn't remember wattage; this seems to be an issue for some of them. At any rate, I only use it with 18650/1x18350 (mostly in "mini" mode) right now as well, but that's specifically because of the VW/RMS/Stacked problem I mentioned.

    Joyetech eVic recall

    Put it in VW mode, RMS mode (N02), stick a low res (~2ohm) carto on it, use stacked 18350s, and then try it. Chances are pretty good you'll damage or even blow the coil the first time you hit it if you don't do a resistance check before that first firing. I damaged 2 SmokTech LR single coil...

    Vaping frustration - ideas please?

    I'm personally not a big fan of the T3 so far, but I do really like the T2 -- it takes a few hours to a day to break in a new head, but once broken in it's been quite reliable and consistent. Put it on an eGo-C Twist or Spinner and you've got an excellent all-day vape that's consistent and lets...

    Joyetech eVic recall

    Pretty much this. We're so used to cheap stuff coming out of China and basically being stuck with the device if it's not performing properly. At least Joyetech is doing the responsible thing here, especially since the problem for which the recall was issued doesn't sound like a critical one...

    The Next Big thing.... Porous Ceramic Wicks

    I am seriously interested in trying this out and hope we'll have a chance to get our hands on some. It looks like it's working great, and despite its fragility seems a lot easier to set up and use and remains long-lasting.

    Joyetech eVic recall

    Saw that earlier today through a post on the G+ vaper's group. Fortunately my serial falls before the recall numbers, so I'm good.

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

    Got my glass tubes and 400 mesh today. I wanna try making a coil but I have to cut the tubes down first and I'm hoping careful, steady application of a Dremel and a cutoff wheel will do the trick, because I have nothing else to cut glass with and may have to buy a glass cutter or something if...

    *** The Official JR Custom Turnings thread ***

    Fair enough. I think my package from you with the tube and mesh arrived today anyway so I'm gonna experiment with that. I'd really like to see the progress of the porous ceramic wick though. That one looks particularly promising.

    Vapros V.1 from Sailebao - first impression unboxing

    Only if I get sent one. :D The specs look alright. According to SLB's site, it appears to come with both an eGo adapter and a USB charging adapter. For whatever reason, the current number of puffs readout is labelled as "Prepaid." Which is good. 'Cos I don't want to get my puffs on credit.

    Game changer? pyrex ss hybrid wick by Scubabatdan

    I still have some glass tube on the way with some mesh, so I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. However it looks like Scubabatdan has already moved on to porous ceramic as a possible wick relpacement and he's having good luck with it so far. I'm very interested in seeing his results and...

    Vapros V.1 from Sailebao - first impression unboxing

    Interesting. It looks oddly like an early 00's MP3 player designed to look like an early 80s hi fi set.

    *** The Official JR Custom Turnings thread ***

    Quick question, Scubabatdan has been experimenting with porous ceramic rods for wicking. Any plans on trying that out and/or carrying it? Though they tend to be brittle, it sounds like these might be a very good (and easier to use) alternative to SS mesh (with or without Pyrex tubing).

    Psychopusher. I don't post a lot though, but if I come across it you'll almost certainly find me in a smoking/vaping thread. :)

    VaporChase Review & Contest: Redds Starter Kit & Key-Cig from Happy Vaper

    I haven't used Blu, and understand they used to be pretty terrible. I hear they've gotten better though, but I'd imagine there's still much better out there.

    Article- What you need to know about e-cigarettes

    Pretty much, unfortunately. Gawker runs a suite of sites -- io9, Gizmodo, Jezebel, Jalopnik, etc. Unlike more restrained sites like Engadget, Gawker doesn't censor its contributors and sometimes posts NSFW content that's only marginally related to the theme of the site it's posted on (like...

    Electro Vapors

    Yep, I was pretty impressed with the 510 Torch to be honest. That, along with the Redds and eRoll rounds out the only 3 devices I feel comfortable recommending to newbies just starting out, because they're the only ones I feel perform to a satisfying enough degree. And I agree, Electro have...
