    Why is Smok so popular?

    I’ve had the worst luck with Smok. An alien mod crapped out on me after only three weeks, coils for the baby tank it came sometimes die in a day, and my ex husband’s vape had to be tossed from the car because it overheated to a critical point. Yes, it was an internal battery mod, which was ill...

    There used to be a thread or group...

    Been years since I regularly visited this site. There used to be a thread or group here that would sometimes help vapers in need with coils and gear. I’ve got a ton of stuff I don’t use, and I’m not all that interested in selling it. It’s dated anyway, save for maybe the mech mods as they’re...

    Just getting back into vaping

    I vaped back in 2013, then went back to smoking, and now got back into vaping. Much has changed and I know nothing now. My tax return is in, my birthday is ina week, so spend my money for me. What do I want to buy? I have a Wismec Realeux Gen 3 with a Crown U well III tank for now that I got at...

    Wismec Reuleaux Gen 3 problem

    Every other time I go to fire it, it reads low atomizer. If I play around with the tank a bit, it will work eventually. I’m thinking a 510 connection issue of some sort? Does the company take care of that, or did I just blow my cash? I have a Lost Vape Paranormal coming in the mail, so if...

    Laid off

    Well. I was just laid off. Any money saving tips for vaping would be greatly appreciated. I already rebuild and have a good stock of kanthal and cotton. I guess it's DIY for me....

    Cosmetic holder as a mod/tank/atty stand?

    https://www.quirky.com/shop/765-zen-cosmetics-the-art-of-organization So, what do you girls think about this cosmetic organizer as a mod stand? Looks like the larger areas should be good to stand up your standard 22mm mods, while the smaller sections look good for the 510 connections on...

    Which mechanical mod has the best switch?

    I've discovered that I love a good switch on a mech mod. It's probably the most important feature to me on one. It needs to have a short throw, minimal misfires, and a locking mechanism that doesn't take 20 turns of a thin locking ring that likes to get stuck. It also needs to require the...

    I'm abusing my kids?

    Sigh... The ANTZ strikes again. This time, in my own family. My sister in law (my husband's, brother in law's sister) is a social worker and must have drunk a gallon of the Kool Aide the Antz have been serving. As such, she took it upon herself to inform me at a family event that I abusing my...

    Aqua Issues

    I finally got a nice, dual coil going on my Aqua clone. With those little thumbscrews, I thought it would be impossible for me to do, but I got it done and I have it running at .8 ohms right now. Both coils light up at the same time, and both glow evenly from the middle outward. Everything...

    Cloud Chasing Competition?

    A local vendor is having a cloud chasing competition this Saturday. I've never been to one, and I'm curious on what goes on at one. It's apparently supposed to be the first cloud chasing competition on the East Coast, and it's being sponsored in part by Ameravape. I can see being able to judge...

    OMG!!! He's changing the wicking all by himself!!

    I need to buy more drippers immediately! My husband just changed the wicking on the dripper I've been leaving home for him. I had to watch him do it and give him pointers, but he WANTED to learn. This is the first rebuildable he's tried to maintain anything on by himself. I think I finally...

    Hubby's first vape shop trip

    Dragged my gear thieving husband down to the vape shop today in the hopes of him finding a juice he liked. He does have a new favorite, however, his new favorite is also one of my favorites, and it only comes in 30 ml bottles. It isn't something I can buy in a larger quantity. He's never been to...

    Where to get filler material for the Heron?

    Anyone know where to get the filler material used for atty's like the GP Heron in the USA? I currently have a clone, and while it does work without the filler stuff, it gurgles a bit too much for my liking this way.

    Customer Service Awesomeness!!

    Many of you know I got my first genuine mech mod. I've been bragging about it everywhere. It's seriously a dream to use the switch. Lernaia Hydra from elcigart in Greece. The reverse threading is a tad annoying, but the short throw and teeny tiny bit of pressure needed to fire it, combined...

    Woah!

    Built my first sub-ohm dual coil in a dripper. Now I see why people need to drop their nic levels. Got a Tobh clone just to give sub ohming a whirl, since I got my first genuine mech. Did 8 wraps of 28 gauge kanthal on a 1/16 drill bit. Came to .62 ohms. Tried it on my new Leraia Hydra and my...

    Priority Mail taking longer then First Class?

    Anyone have this issue lately, while waiting on vape mail? The last priority mail package I ordered took 4 days longer then it should have, and I'm waiting on another this week that is also taking an extraordinary amount of time. Meanwhile, I've been receiving packages via First class much...

    Lernia Hydra

    So, I took advantage of a 4th of July sale and I have my first, high end, mechanical mod coming in from Vapor Venue. Anyone have this one? I like how I don't necessarily need to lock it each time I set it down, but the option is there for when I toss it into my bag. For the price I got it...

    Fasttech aka Slowtech

    Got my first Fasttech order in this week, which consisted mainly of some Kayfun accessories. Colored plastic windows, a plastic kayfun nano kit, and a regular Kayfun drop kit. Of course, one of the steel tubes in the drop kit won't thread on to anything. The other tube works fine. So I wrote...

    It is here! Got the Erlkonigin!

    A couple of people requested that I post my own thoughts on this when it arrived today, so here they are! Like Qorax, whose post had me pulling out my credit card about 20 minutes after drooling over his pictures, I am pretty impressed! Qorax, if you aren't getting paid for getting people to...

    Made myself a travel friendly rebuilding bag!

    So, I was getting a bit weary of carrying a large ziplock bag full of spare parts, kanthal, cotton, and handy rebuilding tools. While I was browsing Muji after adding a bag of their organic cotton pads to my cart, I came across this hanging, travel case meant for holding toiletries. Here's...
