    Evic VTC Mini

    eVic-VTC Mini - Joyetech Does anyone know where it's possible to still purchase these mods? I won mine here on ECF 7 years ago and is still my favorite mod. It's still going but cannot last forever and I would like another.

    Mr 510 and the magic shim

    Problem You've screwed your new atomizer into your mod. It's all the way in and works, but the atomizer wobbles. Why? - Because the positive 510 connector is too long, meaning that only the front part of the negative threading is engaged. Solution A shim. shim /ʃɪm/ noun a washer or thin...

    A science question

    One for the science minded geeks that I know patrol these shores. Why doesn't the thermionic effect short circuit a domestic light bulb? Electrons produced by the filament should be drawn directly to its positive terminal. Why doesn't this current flow draw power away from the anode or short...

    Blotto Mini RTA review

    I won one in a recent competition (thank you @dovpo_hannah ) and it seemed fair to give it a review. This is in my mind the most effective marketing that can be done on ECF. Give away product, and if it's good it gets a good review leading to expanded sales. The fit and finish is superb and...

    Closed/Sold Squid Industries Double Barrel

    Looking for a second hand Double Barrel mod, I don't mind which version. Aesthetically I don't mind if it's got some wear and tear as long as it works and it's priced accordingly. I'm looking for a bargain ideally as I'm pretty broke thanks to the virus. Please bear in mind that the V3 is about...

    What are the birds singing about?

    The common assumption is that bird song is nothing more than an expression of joy or possibly territorial declarations. Others would argue that it is birds communicating useful flight data to each other ~ drag coefficients, angles of poo-bomb attacks, cloud base altitudes, airspeed ratios and...

    Reuleaux RX GEN3 Case Hotspot

    Above 80 watts I was getting an immediate hot spot of the case of my Gen 3, so hot that it was burning my finger. The heat was localized to the corner where the hinge and the main body intersect. Thought it could be an issue with the end of the board where the USB is attached. Or an issue with...

    VooPoo FIND S Trio Review

    I won this pod system in a recent competition (thank you @VOOPOO_Thea) and thought it was the decent thing to do a review of it as I really like it. It's also worth mentioning that I normally vape around RTAs and RDAs around 60 to 80 watts DTL. This is only the second pod I have used the first...

    A nice cup of tea and a sitdown

    The UK consumes 165 million cups of tea a day, second in the world only to Ireland. But we rank 25th per capita for beer consumption, the Czech Republic being number one. We are however the world's largest consumer of chocolate, which makes sense as what goes better with chocolate than a...

    Telecoms Analogy

    I was trying explain telecommunication bandwidth to someone today using roads and cars as a metaphor. The road is the physical circuit, and cars are the ones and zeros being transmitted along it. Once the you scale things up in this analogy, the end results are both awesome and terrifying. The...

    Trees

    Richard Feynman famously stated “...trees are made of air, primarily. When they are burned, they go back to air, and in the flaming heat is released the flaming heat of the Sun which was bound in to convert the air into tree. And in the ash is the small remnant of the part which did not come...

    Response to the US Lung Fiasco

    My UK based supplier has issued a public statement regarding the lung disease outbreak in the US. It's a moderately long read but contains a lot of hard truths. I've included the main content below as well as a link to the article. LiQuid's Response to US Vape Related Concerns | LiQuid Blog...
