    Dripper Recommendations

    I am looking for dripper recommendations. The last thread was 2018. Do people even drip still?.. I settled on Velocity RDas… anyone have any advice on anything built since? I switched to salt nics but hate them. Back to juices and drippers. Thanks!!

    Anyone Rebuild a V2 EX Blank Clearo?

    As an out-of-the-house device, I reordered a v2 product. Since I had been rebuidling / building my own coils, I wondered about these. I suppose I could figure it out... but am trying to avoid reinventing the wheel (since I am spending more time doing other things), and wonder if anyone...

    How To Clapton 3 cores and Keep em Flat?

    I tried a fused-clap variation today (in the attempt to lead up to the beloved alien). I decided to try and clapton 3 cores, as opposed to the 2 on a standard fused. Let me tell ya'.. not easy at all to keep the 3 cores flat, and prevent them from collapsing into a triangular-shapd core...

    Fused Clapton... 3 Teeny Tiny Clapton wire Hotspots OK?

    I just finished installing a fused-clapton coil. The wire is a 26-gauge NiCr80 core claptoned with 36-gauge NiCr80. After installing and dry-firing, its heating perfectly from the inside-out, but there are 3 teeny-tiny hotspots... basically, there are 3 separate clapton wraps that are...

    Danger of Nickel Wire (Ni200 for Temp. Control)

    Just watched this interesting video. Was just about to start watchin reviews on Temp. Control mods... for my next purchase. Now?.. NOT my next purchase. Maybe he's wrong... I'll allow the Metallurgy experts to chime in. Either way, not worth the risk too me. Wanted to spread the word.

    After Rewicking a Used Coil, I am Getting a Sour Taste??

    Today (or more like last night) I decided to rewick a coil I had been using for a week. Last week I coiled and wicked my Subtank Mini in a manner which yielded the best flavor I have ever experienced yet with vaping... my first RDA is on the mail to my house, so that will change things I am...

    Suntank Mini Dry Hits After Refills

    I have 2 Sub-Minis. One has the dual airflow and an old rba-deck that has juice channels that I modified with a file. The other is the v2 (plus). When I refill the tank, there is always a bit of juice left... anyway, I flip tank over and set down (inverted) on a paper towel, so the driptip can...

    Org. Cotton Balls vs Koh-Gen-Doh

    Im thinkin of buyin a bag of org cotton balls from local CVS, since I have heard of others doing this. Up until now, I have been using the classic KGD square pads. Aside from the form that the materials come it, is there any difference in performance when comparing the 2 (i.e. flavor, wicking...

    Purest Form of Nichrome??

    So Im watchin Squidoode's Fused Clapton tutorial, and while listing the items needed for the build, he refers to some "Anarchist Wire..." the "purest form" of Nichrome there is. First off, I realize I dont have to use the exact wire gauges / materials he does; however, if I do not want to buy...

    Im sure many of you ar familiar w/ Rip's Tugboat RDA V2 review, where he mentions his concern with the Copper center-post. I just ordered a Tobeco clone and am now wondering if I should just immediately return it. Anybody have any views on the safety (or lack thereof) of copper in rda's etc?

    What Am I Missing?.. Lemo 2 is HORRIBLE

    I was so pumped to finally get this tank. I started with the Atlantis, which was ok I guess. But when I got my Subtank Mini's 2-3 weeks ago, I quickly realized how bad the flavor was in the Atlantis. After seeing a ton of reviews for the Lemo 2, along with wanting a decked design that had holes...

    Proper orientation of Atlantis drip-tip o-ring?

    I took my Atlantis apart last week; I was confused however, when putting the drip-tip's o-ring back, and couldn't quite decide which way was right. I tried them both (well, as far as having the "lip" on the ring facing inwards, so it would fit in one of the 2 slots that are machined into the...

    Is it okay to turn a dual-coil atty into a single coil?

    I'm using the EVOD2, which has a dual-coil 1.5 ohm atty. I've been wandering, what if I wanted to turn it into a single-coil?... say take the 2 coils out (which I imagine are actually 3.0 ohms a piece?) and install a single 1.8 Ohm coil... is that okay?

    Buying bag of single coils for dual-coil EVOD2 tank... what ohm then on single's?

    Before I say anything... I will say that I have searched the forum in regard to what Ohm-rating single-coils are at in order to be used in a dual-coil set-up. For instance, right now I am using an EVOD2 atty that is 1.5 ohms... that means that the ohm rating of each coil on their own is 3.0...

    Atlantis: Juice is harsh till warmed up?

    A couple of weeks ago I ventured into the world of Sub-Ohm vaping. I have an iStick50 w/ an Aspire Atlantis at .5 ohms. I started with 40%vg and quickly learned how harsh pg can be with sub-ohming... so i have been happy with 80%vg +. The problem is, even with this higher amount of vg...
