    Just got zapped by pro-vari

    I've been in the audiophile world (and on those forums) long enough to know that a good 75% of the people who slag someone else's gear are just mean asshats who neither know what they are talking about or have any genuine interest in helping newbies. If I had taken half the stuff on the audio...

    Just got zapped by pro-vari

    Actually, similar "volunteer" attitude can be found on the other forums I frequent--gun rights and audiophile forums. I never did quite fully understand the method of adjusting Vertical Tracking Angle on a turntable cartridge until someone from a forum came to my house and showed me, hands-on...

    Just got zapped by pro-vari

    Schnoodle--I live in Columbia MD--just a short hop from Baltimore. If you want to get together somewhere, maybe I can help you out. Trouble-shooting an advanced PV can be nearly impossible for an inexperienced vaper, and trying to do it on-line in a forum can be just as pointless. Some...

    Killer 705 Clone from madvapes (Terminator RDA) for $11.99

    No problem. Just a note though, you do NOT have to open the feed cup very much to get good juice feed. I think mine is opened about 3/4 of a turn. the cap in the "cup" is maybe 1/64". I mean, it's open just enough to be a little wobbly. And I'm using high-VG juice, and they seem to feed just...

    Killer 705 Clone from madvapes (Terminator RDA) for $11.99

    I got tiny little translucent grommets with mine too. I think those are plugs for the end of the mouthpiece, in case you want to use it without a drip tip, like a cartomizer. It sure looks like the plugs that come in the mouth-end of cartos, and it fits in the mouth-end of the Terminator just...

    Killer 705 Clone from madvapes (Terminator RDA) for $11.99

    The juice feed mechanism on the Terminator (Killer Clone) works on the same principal as the "Terminator-C". But with the Term-C, twisting the "cup" to raise or lower the cup that covers the wick and coil is very easy--the o-ring at the top pf the Term-C is held in place and sealed by a small...

    Killer 705 Clone from madvapes (Terminator RDA) for $11.99

    I'm on my second tank, and it's vaping like a champ. I'm using AiV's "Twas Brillig" and although it's not officially documented, I have it on good advise (from AiV themselves) that this is a "high VG juice" (stock mix is somewhere around 30PG/70VG). My Terminators are from Exhale. They have two...

    Starbucks bans vaping inside and within 25 feet outside

    As someone who is very active and vocal supporter of the Second Amendment, I have been big supporter of Starbucks because they have a carry-friendly corporate policy (they essentially have NO policy on carry--they just follow whatever state and local laws apply). I have open carried in...

    Regular Atty Drippers (A Dying Breed?)

    Try doing it in darken room. I had the same problem with my 901 atties, because the coil is WY down inside them and covered with a pretty thick screen and wick. In a dark room, you can see the glow just fine. I just go into the bathroom, close the door, and turn off the lights (our bathroom...

    DNA20D Screen Frame/Cradle

    So I have question on these bezels. I want to order a few, and wondered what the difference between the black and white "strong and flexible" ones and the black and white "detail" ones are? I'm assuming there is some difference in the material they are made with. Which one take paint better...

    octopus rda what works for you

    I just put a 4/5 flat ribbon Kanthal coil in one of my Octopi last night (with the standard 8 strands of silica) and it works GREAT. That flat kanthal produces TONS of vapor. I'm going to be trying some hemp wick this weekend with the ribbon kanthal this weekend...

    Pictures of your setup

    This is a beautiful composite photo. Your skills with camera AND PhotoShop are both exemplary... But I have one question. Is it pronounced "fō–GHOH–tee" or "fog–A–tee"?

    Pictures of your setup

    I think it should be grounds for banning from ECF to post a pic of mods on this thread and not provide a description of what mods, atties and juices are in the picture. Just sayin'...

    Are you giving your own creations a fair review

    As an artist, writer, and craftsman, I know that with regards to my own work--and that inlcudes my DIY juices--I am my own most brutal critic. When creative people get inspiration, they have an idealized goal in their head, and no matter how wonderful, amazing or unique their final product...

    Killer 705 Clone from madvapes (Terminator RDA) for $11.99

    Here ya go! Less than half a tank left of AiV's "Twas Brillig" (my "benchmark" testing juice for new devices). I'm running the stock wick and coil, and the eVic says it meters at 2.2ohms. Vaping at 7.3watts of yummy goodness... ;-)

    I gotta stay away from...

    I agree--FastTech is VERY bad for my credit card--but nowhere near as bad as some of the domestic vendors. I see a LOT of deep discounts on future small hardware purchases in my future. I ordered a couple X8 tanks, and a few of those colored Octopus clones today. I'll probably be ordering one...

    Killer 705 Clone from madvapes (Terminator RDA) for $11.99

    My Killer Clones (Terminator) arrived from Exhale today (I ordered 2). I put one of them in a 19mm XL IBTanked tank, and it works pretty well. Great flavor, no dry hits, no leaks and it looks pretty cool in the tank. The 510 extension on the bottom makes it sit up a little high on my eVic...

    Just placed my first order with FastTech.

    I just put in an order with FastTech for a couple X8 tanks, bunch of 10ml needle bottles, and three different colored SC20 dripping attys (Octopus clone) With the discount, it was less than two X8s would have cost me from a domestic vendor. We'll see in a week or so what the speed of shipping...
