    Anyone tried NIZN batteries?

    At 1.6v nominal and 1.8 off the charger they seem like an ideal battery for flashlight mods which already come with a 3s style battery holder. 4.8v without any regulation of voltage just seems too simple. http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=140777582547&cmd=VIDESC And cheap and...

    thoughts on diy coil longevity please

    It makes me happy that I have not used a Chinese atomizer/cartomizer in nearly 4 weeks. However regardless of wick material I can't get over a couple days use without cleaning or replacing the coil. Compared to near a week from a Boge 2.0ohm carto. DIY coils just seem to gunk up and loose...

    summer is comming. so is the "Floatie" mod.

    Waterproof bottom weighted so it always floats upright. 18650 powered with 3ml genesis tank atty. At last a Marine Grade PV for the outdoorsman. Just have to design the one way check valves for air intake and drip tip to keep water out of the juice........diluted nic juice is just as bad as a...

    4050 booster question

    Can the switch be placed on the negative side of the board? So far diagrams I have been looking at are all positive side switched. The mod I want to add this chip to is already negative switched. Edit. Also if the control pin is left blank will I get 5v and adding the resistor is just to alter...

    RCA Vertical Coil Genesis Drip Atty

    RCA connector with genesis style vertical coil and thin strip of wrapped PTB to insulate the wick from the posts and retain liquid. Forgive me if this has already been done a hundred times I am new to Modding but the idea was to incorporate as many good ideas as possible yet still be simple...

    First working mod!

    Have several half done ideas on the work bench but this is the first working one. Started life as a $2.00 led light from tractor supply. Genesis tank is my first too. "Dumbbell" style for durability and no wires through the juice. Utilized the original bottom mounted switch from the light. Just...

    Anyone else have this problem¿??

    Sat down andthen dug mfy 510 out ofthe my pocket. BENT BETWEEN THE BATTERY AND CARTO. No big deal fixed. Second time there was no fixing. Ruined the battery. Next time carto broke. Just too fragile to use "worry free". Makes me want to go back to simple analogs.

    Waste of time?

    Battery connector went bad on one of my ego chargers. Thought of using the PCB to make a 4.2v regulated passthrough. However remembered it has a 500ma output. I presume this makes it a no go?

    Juice darkening normal?

    So I made my first tank mod finally and loving it. Approx 4ml capacity with ce2 guts. My problem /question is by the time I use about 2/3 of the juice the rest has become twice as dark as the original liquid I filled with. Is this normal?

    A little battery help

    Looking for suggestions as to the best performing mini auto battery. Just feel like I need something I can hold in my mouth and puff on while working and not have to stop what I am doing to press a button. Just to fill a gap when my egos and mods are too big or awkward not as a primary Pv...

    ego-t best buy?????

    Ok. So I have had my Egos for a few months now but am interested in ordering a "tank system". So far though the prices I am finding are substantially higher for the Ego-t models, like 15.00 for a single atty. So My question is what is the best buy people are finding on ego-t attys/tanks/starter...

    bluemistvaping?

    I have seen Bluemist vaping talked about as a good juice vendor, both diy and premix, however don't see a few of my go-to flavors. Pricing looks great, but would like a few recommendations as to favorites from people who have ordered from them. Definitely want a good menthol, other than that I...

    Care and feeding of bogue 510 2.0lr cartos

    ok, so have been vaping about 6 weeks now, and ordered an assortment of different cartomizers for my ego. Standard: good; ce2v4: haven't tried yet as my pack lacked the fill needle; Bogue 2.0lr: love these.....the extra warmth of the vapor is incredible. I really like this but how much more...

    510 E2 R4 Cartomizers (filling question)

    I just got some of these and was excited to try. The product listing where I bought them said each package came with the special filling needle (syringe required); no problem, except that the fill tip was not included in the pack I bought :(. Any other way to properly fill these cartos or do I...

    I feel like BaskinRobins. LOL

    just got my sampler in from PureSmoker........22 5ml bottles but definitely going to be more than 31 flavors by the time I drip a couple drops each of different ones at the same time. So much variety that my biggest current problem is which one to try next. Really like the Fire&Ice.....want to...

    nic concentration % vs mg?

    so I am looking at placing an order with PureSmoker but all their liquids list Nic strength in % instead of mg. Never seen this before. Anyone know how the numbers convert? For example they list "medium" as 1.6%; but I have no idea how this converts to mg.

    good juice samplers?

    anyone tried the big PureSmoker juice sampler? 22 different flavors. at an avg of less than 3.00 each I am thinking it is worth a shot but thought I'd see if there was any feedback here first.

    cartomizer/battery life questions

    Ok, so have my EGO 650ma and the batt lasts pretty much all day between charges but I would really like to try LR atty/carto for more vapor. How much more battery do the LRs use? Anyone have a direct comparison of standard vs LR attys and battery life (use time per charge)? Will I suddenly find...

    Savor the flavor

    just hit 30 days today. Have mostly tobacco juice and had a little menthol that just ran out :(. Only got a little as never smoked menthol but it has really been a favorite vape. Anyway have a few flavors that up until today were less than satisfying. Seems vaping technique really makes a...
