    eVic is breaking - What now?

    Anyone who intentionally or negligently abuses expensive gear "just because they can" shouldn't be allowed to own nice things. Just sayin'...

    Shake, Stir, Heat, Vibrate or let it sit?

    And those of us who are "believers" in "Ultra Sonic Cleaner Accelerated Steeping" (USCAS) can easily and confidently point toward Brownian Motion and the Le Chatelier Principal to provide iron-clad proof of not only HOW it works, but WHY as well. The micro-agitation, high-frequency vibration...

    Shake, Stir, Heat, Vibrate or let it sit?

    Yes, but you could never know the exact quantity of juice you had AND it's exact location in time and space at the same time. Either, or... ;-) And some ECF members think that Moderators are some form of deity too, but that doesn't make their belief legitimate, even if said beings believe it...

    Shake, Stir, Heat, Vibrate or let it sit?

    Steeping has just as many (if not more) potential effecting conditions as ballistics. One issue I haven't even seen discussed is Brownian Motion (knowledge of which is sort of precursor to the understanding of Le Chatelier's Principle...) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownian_motion When...

    Looking for Colourful e-juice?

    Actually, you can buy natural, organic food coloring in most good health food stores. I'm planning to do this for some of my DIY, because I like the idea of brightly-colored juice when I'm using a clear carto tank, but I'm a little worried about artificial colorings... Natural Food Colors...

    eVic setup and photos

    Hey, I thought I was the only person who put o-rings around the tube of my mods. I have them on my eVic, AcryliMax, Silver Bullet, and even on my eGo Twist. I do it for two reasons: 1) the o-rings in the middle have a lanyard loop on them so I can wear them on a lanyard, and 2) they protect the...

    non silica wicks and wick boiling questions

    One of my hobbies that I picked up on grad school is paper making. I have bags of ALL kinds of raw fibers--hemp, thai kozo, flax, abaca--and I'm going to start experimenting with it for making wicks. Since most of it is raw and unbleached, and NONE of it has any sizing or wax in it (like most...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    I got a Phiniac Phineer tank last night, and a high-end carto punch and one of those wacky goose-neck 510 extensions tonight off the ECF Classies. Hopefully, they'll be in next week. And I ordered 2 Terminator RBA/tanks from ExhaleVapor tonight, so they should be in just in time to use one of...

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

    Thanks for the heads up on the discount code GraceH. I just ordered 2 myself--one in each size. I figure I'll use these RBAs in other tanks (my new Phiniac and some of the IBTanks I have), but you can never have too many spare tanks in different sizes, so I ordered one small and one large, sinc...

    New eVic?

    Actually, the native eVic firmware code already has an MP3 CODEC and DAC built in it--they just don't utilize it for some reason--probably memory restrictions, and lack of headphone outputs... ;-)...

    Simulating a "hava tampa" cigar

    I would make an NET extract from chopped up real cigars, and make juice from that. The NETs I've made from Fuente, El Rey del Mundo, Santa Damiana, and Partagas cigars have all turned out astoundingly well, and taste as close to the real thing you can get without actually lighting one up. There...

    Welcome to ECF, and congrats on making the switch to Vaping. Your interestin DIY shows that you are one of those rare vapers who is interested in becoming personally responsible in your own vaping experience, and we applaud you for that! Here's the thing with medical syringes. They are made to...

    CALL TO ACTION! *UPDATED 5/22/13* New York Bill to Impose 95% Tax on E-Cigarettes and Smokeless Tobacco -- A.B. 7106

    Bloomberg is a textbook narcissistic sociopath. He is not well-intentioned toward anyone but himself. His only concern is getting his way and having power over other people. Anyone who says differently is either in denial, delusional, or on his payroll. The people of NYC need to seriously...

    CALL TO ACTION! *UPDATED 5/22/13* New York Bill to Impose 95% Tax on E-Cigarettes and Smokeless Tobacco -- A.B. 7106

    Will the tobacco vendors license apply to out of state mail order or Internet vendors selling to customers in NY?

    Open Thread For Complaining.......

    Replacement Vivi Nova heads that are marked as 2.4 ohms, but have no flavor, and when you meter them, they are ACTUALLY between 3.1 and 3.8 (!?!?) ohms. Got about 10 of those bad boys last month. Gotta love that wonderful Chinese Q/C...

    Steeping Times and an Ultrasonic Cleaner Part III

    Is one of those little shakers for model paint and fingernail polish bottles? I was looking at those before I stumbled onto the ultrasonic idea. I have a few favors that would benefit from a little "brightening"...

    Steeping Times and an Ultrasonic Cleaner Part III

    Ok, here is my report. I made 5 new juices on Wednesday--all of which have in the past required at minimum 1week of steep time to taste right, and more to really peak. One is a raspberry/Bavarian cream, one is made from my own jasmine tea extract, one is a really complex RY4/bakery flavor...

    Pictures of your setup

    Nancy, I'm really digging those braided wraps on the base of your eGo batteries. Did you make them yourself or buy them somewhere?
