    Higher wattages (50+ watts) useless on Voopoo Drag X Plus?

    I've been using only twin-18650 mods for some time, and before the shipping ban came into effect, I bought a backup of my most-used mod (a Geekvape Aegis X), but since the 100W single 21700 / 18650 Voopoo Drag X Plus was only $35, I also picked up one of them as another backup. I vape...

    Geekvape Aegis X detailed review

    I have been using a Joyetech eVic Primo 2.0 and Cuboid (the original version, released as a 150W mod but firmware updatable to 200W) for quite some time. Both were running the ArcticFox firmware, with the eVic Primo 2.0 being my primary, and the Cuboid as a backup / "beater" mod. The "minus /...

    "The Complex Realm of Vaping" (U.S. News & World Report)

    It's nice to see a positive article on vaping. This one talks about vaping "subgenres" like coil building and DIY juice mixing. And while it gets some minor details wrong, such as saying "sub-ohm" refers to wattage, it's still a pretty good read...

    Replacement for Koh Gen Do cotton (60mm x 80mm pads)

    I've been using Koh Gen Do cotton pads for some time, and was getting a bag of 80 pads for $9-$12 on Amazon, last purchased over a year ago. I'm starting to get low, so I went to get some more, but now, a box of only 60 pads costs $19. What I love best about the Koh Gen Do cotton is that they...

    Any dual 18650 or dual 21700 / 18650 box mods with a finish that won't flake off?

    I'm currently using a Joyetech Cuboid (original 150W / 200W version) in grey, and a Joyetech eVic Primo 2.0 in black/grey. I love both of them, and run the ArcticFox firmware. But the finishes flake off ridiculously easy. The Cuboid is much older and it looks like absolute hell, with about 50%...

    We still have a long way to go....(Public opinion on the long-term safety of vaping)

    I rarely vape in public, so it's not often that I am able to interact with smokers. But my father needed a chaperone to the VA hospital for a procedure under sedation, so I had a few hours to kill. And eventually I made my way to the "smokers' pavilion" outside to vape. I thought we had made it...

    Samsung 25R / Sony VTC5A performance after 250 charges

    Back in April, I ordered a pair of Samsung 25R and Sony VTC5A batteries, and have been using them daily in my Cuboid and eVic Primo 2.0. I've been keeping track of their accumulated charge/discharge cycles, and both have just hit 250 cycles. Most of the time they were charged when discharged to...

    Multi-strand twisted wire builds offer some great benefits

    Over the few years I've been building coils, my "typical" or "go-to" build has changed many times. Sometimes it was basic single strand dual coils, other times it was twisted single or dual coils, or single or dual Clapton coils, or single or dual fused / twisted core Clapton coils. While I have...

    Joyetech eVic Primo 2.0 review

    I bought a Joyetech Cuboid (the original dual-cell version) as soon as it was released to upgrade from my iTaste MVP 3.0 Pro. I had been very happy with the Cuboid, especially after I found and installed ClockSelect's myevic firmware, which greatly improves its feature-set and customization. But...

    18650 batteries for dual or triple cell high-power regulated mod

    My two married pairs of LG HG2 batteries that I have been using in my Cuboid for a bit over a year have began to noticeably degrade, so it is time to pick up new batteries. Since my Cuboid has seen hard use and is covered with scratches and chips, I will be purchasing either a Joyetech Primo...

    Joyetech Cuboid: Weak battery warning at 90+ watts, even on freshly-charged LG HG2 batteries

    I've been in a single-coil groove the past few months, mostly twisted, Clapton, and twisted-core / fused Clapton coils with my RDA's on my Joyetech Cuboid (the original dual 18650 model). So it's been a while since I vaped at more than 60 or 70 watts, and most of the time I'm around 50 watts...

    Tesla Three output voltage

    I'm thinking about picking up a Tesla Three to have something cheap for knocking around, but am a bit confused on how it works. My understanding was that it is just an unregulated mod with safety features. But it has a two-cell LiPo battery while the maximum output voltage is only 4.2 volts, not...

    Ever consider a "round-up" fundraising campaign?

    I was wondering if CASAA has thought of using a "round-up" fundraising campaign, where you work with retailers to offer customers the option of rounding up their purchases to the next dollar as a donation to CASAA? If your order totals $50.83 and you opt-in, you would pay $51.00, if your order...

    Clapton coil builds -- mixed Kanthal and Nichrome?

    I'm tallying up everything I need for my next order of wire. I've dabbled with Clapton coils before, but only with Kanthal for both the core and the wrap, and I plan on trying Clapton coils and other more exotic builds more often that I have in the past. But I see a lot of people mixing Kanthal...

    Experienced builder with RDA's, searching for a low-capacity dual-coil RTA (requirements listed)

    I've been building on RDA's for several years now, and have built just about every type of coil build out there from thin-gauge single microcoils, to dual staple staggered fused Clapton coils, and everything in between. I've settled on simple dual-coil builds for my typical day-to-day use, but...

    What could cause an 18650 battery to suddenly stop functioning?

    One of my 18650 batteries (a dark purple Efest 2800 mAh "35A") just suddenly stopped working. It had been working fine for about 150 cycles over the past year, and I put it on the charger today and it began charging. About an hour later I went to check on it and found that the other batteries on...

    RDA Advken Ziggs RDA -- 2 posts, angled airflow, and just $30

    I came across this RDA while browsing today, and there doesn't seem to be much information or reviews. Advken Ziggs RDA It looks like a solid and simple 2-post RDA at a very good price point. The angled airflow is definitely interesting. I'm searching for another RDA to buy along with the...

    FDA Variable wattage flashlight with screw-in (510) bulb attachment

    I wonder if this would be able to be sold and avoid being deemed as a "tobacco product" by the FDA. Just include a 510 attachment with an LED light and sell it as a flashlight. Maybe even temperature control might be able to slip through -- prevent the LED from overheating.

    RDA Two-post RDA: Tsunami, Tobeco Velocity / Velocity Mini clone, something else?

    I'm looking for a new two-post RDA and am having some difficulty deciding. My typical builds are simple -- dual coil 24 gauge or twisted 28 gauge with a 2.5 mm or 3 mm diameter. I haven't had much luck with "wide" coils with many wraps, and usually stick with 6 - 8 wraps. I rarely, if ever, go...
