    Back into the "hobby"

    After quitting the ecig almost a year ago, life events have brought me back to the addiction. i've gone through a few blu disposable/njoy kings (boy, disposables have come a long way) over the past week or 2 and just purchased a pack of cartos and some juice. Getting back into it isn't nearly...

    IMR question

    Just got 6 IMR 14500's to replace my standard 14500's. I did some searching but was unable to find a solid answer. Because these batteries are unprotected, do they cut off before overdischarging?

    New auto battery design

    I've been playing around with the AT42QT1010 capacitive touch sensor for the past few weeks, and have created an auto battery mod that does NOT activate using sound or vibration. Attached is a quick paint drawing of the mod. The actual battery box contains the evercool circuitry, with the...

    Any beer "snobs"/home brewers out there?

    If so, what's your favorite? (bud/miller/coors fans need not reply) Mine is Troeg's Rugged Trail Nut Brown Ale. I'm a huge brown fan. I LOVE malty beer, but I'm not against a good hoppy IPA (Dogfish's 90 minute is my current favorite, their 60 minute is a little too astringent for my tastes)...

    Cheap Bench Power Supply found

    Not the cheapest, out there (you can make one from an ATX PC power supply if so inclined), but I recently found and purchased a decent power supply capable of powering all your modding desires (within reason). It is cheap, however, compared to an industry grade power supply ($1000+ for a new...

    Ultimate Passthrough PV (LM317HVT regulator)

    After forgetting a spare set of batteries when I left the house the other day, I started thinking about building a true 5v passthrough. But, patience was non-existent by that point, so I used parts I had available from the stockroom at my employer. Long story short: 3xAA box with an LM317HVT...

    Seperation issues

    Mixing spearmint flavoring, koolada, and menthol solution (from PA, crystals dissolved in PGA) in 100% VG. 10% menthol, 5% spearmint, and maybe 1% koolada. Have some separation when it sits for a period of time, is it the menthol or koolada that isn't playing nicely with the VG?

    Dekang cartomizers?

    Ordered 10 packs of cartomizers from cigtechs, (i have been ordering from for a while now, but not in this quantity). When I received them, there were 10 boxes (5 packs) inside a larger box, from the manufacturer. The box says dekang on the side. Are they actually made by dekang? or are they...

    Sweetener recommendation

    For anyone that HASN'T tried EZ-Sweetz, you're missing out. I was previously using ethyl maltol solution, and that does not even compare. I added 2 drops of EZ_Sweetz to about 1.5 mL of juice (ripe banana), and the sweetness is just amazing. As someone who loves sweet liquid, this stuff...

    Varivolt PV (4 selectable voltages, no potentiometer)

    Just a simple, variable voltage (I'm setting it to 3.7, 5, 5.5 volts), with 6.1 volts available if I close all the DIP switches. Using an LM317T (rated at 2.2 amps if Vin-Vout <= 20 volts) because they are cheap, and readily available to me. (I know the schematic says K, ignore) I...
