    Can anybody explain this phenomenon?

    I used to be a genesis guy but recently(well 1 year ago) gave kayfun a go and loved it. The reason I liked SS wicks is because they lasted so long, 6 months at least but usually had to fix a few hotspots in between. My first 2 kayfun builds failed pretty quickly (lasted just a few weeks) but...

    Another way you could (possibly) fix your mod.

    Vamo 2 was the first mod I've ever purchased, it served me well for a year and a half until the output started getting weaker and weaker until all it was able to produce was around 5w with a full battery. I've kept it in my scrap drawer since then. Recently my vamo 5 broke (just wont start and...

    Looking for a short 18650 VV mod

    I'm looking for one where the atty(a 23mm diameter one) sits next to the battery not on top of it, kinda like this: not interested in 18350's. VV/VW either works, anybody know one?

    The mod that dreams are made of

    What about this one? Its the size of a regular cigarette of which 90% is the tank so it holds 5ml of e-gel. Its got a 100Wh battery that can be charged in 5 minutes Its VCT (variable coil temperature) controlled from 50C - 300C with a potential peak output of 1kw Its got a minitature fusion...

    Chips vs Mechs... fight!

    Lately I've been experimenting with mechs + my very "down kick(?)". 10A buck regulators only cost like €5 and you can solder the tuning components right on its legs so I'm getting a solid 3V at 95%+ efficiency.

    Li-po batteries

    kinda weird nobody has pointed this out - there is no such thing as Li-Po vs Li-Ion. Li-Po is a slang term for a subgroup of Li-Ions and its only defining characteristic is that they are not cylindrical. At some point Li-Po meant something else but nowdays it's same chemistries and working...

    I don't know where you guys shop for your multimeters but a €10 one with +-5 milliohm accuracy is pretty standard here

    Keep or Toss?

    just keep, why bother rewrapping, its not like it makes any difference (unless you plan to store it in a box of nails or something)

    A few questions

    Ever stick your finger in boiling water? Thats what a li-ion feels like when its about to go boom. Doesn't just happen instantly and is rather hard to miss while vaping, no need to be too paranoid :D

    To Charge or Not To Charge

    simple answer - charge/discharge them to 50% and put them in a fridge(sealed from moisture and not in the freezer!). Less than 1% degradation per year like that.

    Electrical Guys-

    If its any comfort, theres nothing in a charger that can make a significant boom (at worst a cap explosion is less destructive than lighting a match).

    Where did the battery "rotation" idea come from in dual battery mods?

    Hogwash, when connected in series, the order makes no difference in degradation whatsoever. Yes there are mechanisms in play that cause the different batteries to degrade at different rates but one of these mechanisms rules over the others by far: in case of lithium-ion, the battery with the...

    Anything significant happen over the last year?

    Hey, I sorta fell out of the loop about all the newest vaping related tech over the last year since I found a great setup for myself. Now that I'm in need of new gear again I got some questions: 1. Is there finally a decent capacity 18350 out there? Something like 1200+ mAh? 2. Has anything...

    O ring help

    uhh i wouldn't just get any O ring to replace one in an atty, they need to be chemically inert at high temperatures
